Mr. Knightley might quarrel with her, but Emma could not quarrel with herself. He was so much displeased¹, that it was longer than usual before he came to Hartfield again; and when they did meet, his grave looks shewed that she was not forgiven. She was sorry, but could not repent². On the contrary, her plans and proceedings³ were more and more justified⁴ and endeared to her by the general appearances of the next few days.

The Picture, elegantly framed, came safely to hand soon after Mr. Elton's return, and being hung over the mantelpiece of the common sitting-room⁵, he got up to look at it, and sighed out his half sentences of admiration⁶ just as he ought; and as for Harriet's feelings, they were visibly forming themselves into as strong and steady an attachment⁷ as her youth and sort of mind admitted. Emma was soon perfectly⁸ satisfied of Mr. Martin's being no otherwise remembered, than as he furnished a contrast with Mr. Elton, of the utmost advantage to the latter.

Her views of improving her little friend's mind, by a great deal of useful reading and conversation, had never yet led to more than a few first chapters, and the intention of going on to-morrow. It was much easier to chat than to study; much pleasanter to let her imagination range and work at Harriet's fortune, than to be labouring to enlarge her comprehension or exercise it on sober facts; and the only literary pursuit which engaged Harriet at present, the only mental provision she was making for the evening of life, was the collecting and transcribing⁹ all the riddles
