This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: made a lucky guess; and that is all that can be said." " And have you never known the pleasure and triumph of a lucky guess??I pity you.?I thought you cleverer?for depend upon it, a lucky guess is never merely luck. There is always some talent in it. And as to my poor word ' success,' which you quarrel with, I do not know that I am so entirely without any claim to it You have drawn two pretty pictures?but I think there may be a third?a something between the do-nothing and the do-all. If I had not promoted Mr. Weston's visits here, and given many little encouragements, and smoothed many little matters, it might not have come to any thing after all. I think you must know Hartneld enough to comprehend that." " A straight-forward, open-hearted man, like Weston, and a rational unaffected woman, like Miss Taylor, may bebe safely left to manage their own concerns. You are more likely to have done harm to yourself, than good to them, by interference." " Emma never thinks of herself, if she can do good to others;" rejoined Mr. Woodhouse, understanding but in part. " But, my dear, pray do not make any more matches, they are silly things, and break up one's family circle grievously." " Only one more, papa; only for Mr. Elton. Poor Mr. Elton! You like Mr. Elton, papa,?I must look about for a wife for him. There i nobody in Highbury who deserves him ?and he has been here a whole year, and has fitted up his house so comfortably that it would be a shame to have him single any longer?and I thought when he was joining their hands today, he looked so very much as if he would like to have the same kind office done for him!

Not illustrated. 1816 edition. Excerpt: ...time for beaming. Trust to me. Oh! Miss Woodhouse, what a pity that I must not write this beautiful charade into my book! I am sure I have not got one half so good. Leave out the two last lines, and there is no reason why you should not write it into your book. Oh! but those two lines are i: The best of all. Granted;--for private enjoyment; and for private enjoyment keep them. They are not at all the less written you know, because you divide them. The couplet does not cease to be, nor does its meaning change. But take it away, and all appropriation ceases, and a very pretty gallant charade remains, fit for any collection. Depend upon it, he would not like to have his charade slighted, much better than his passion. A poet A poet in love must be encouraged in both capacities, or neither.

Harriet submitted, though her mind could hardly separate the parts, so as to feel quite sure that her friend were not writing down a declaration of love.

Very well, replied Emma, a most natural feeling; and the longer it lasts, the better I shall be pleased. But here is my father coming: you will not object to my reading the charade to him. It will be giving him so much pleasure! He love any thing of the sort, and especially any thing that pays woman a compliment. He has the tenderest spirit of gallantry towards us all!--You must let me read it to him. Harriet Harriet looked grave. My dear Harriet, you must not refine too much upon this charade.--You will betray your feelings improperly, if you are too conscious and too quick,... Jane Austen, Books, Emma; A Novel.
