The connotative word for me is PITIFULLY or pitifully young. This means very young and it refers to the woman in the text.

It would seem that the words used invoked negative emotions because the narrator is saying that the girl is very young to be married. It would seem as though the narrator is questioning the rightness of the bride's decision of getting married at a very young age. 

You may also have a look at the site I prefer. It is Primewritings. Except  writnig tips, you may find there also the essay samples and online help.
