长难句解析
But in all, and in almost every line of each, there was a want of that cheerfulness1 which had been used to characterize her style, and which, proceeding from the serenity of a mind at ease with itself, and kindly disposed towards every one2, had been scarcely ever clouded3.
解：1主语+2定语从句+3谓语
析：“which had been used to characterize her style…every one”是定语从句，修饰先行词cheerfulness，关系代词which在定语从句中作主语；现在分词短语“proceeding from the serenity of a mind at ease with itself”作后置定语修饰cheerfulness。
