To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

^ FranK'dhurchill keeps his engagement with Jane l^air- fax a secret till all -the possible mischief can come from it, and then acknowledges it just when the fact must be most mortifying and humiUating to Emma. After she has been put to shame before Knightley in every way, she finds herself beloved and honored by him and in the way to be happily married. There are, meantime, a few dances and picnics, dinners and teas; Harriet Smith is frightened by gypsies, and some hen-roosts are robbed. There... is not an accident, even of the mild and beneficent type of Louisa Musgrove's in "Persua- sion" ; there is not an elopement, even of the bouffe nat- ure of Lydia's in "Pride and Prejudice"; there is noth- ing at all so tragic as Catharine Morland's expulsion by General Tilney in " Northanger Abbey." Duels and abductions, of course, there are none; for Jane Austen had put from her all the machinery of the great and Uttle novelists of the eighteenth century, and openly mocked at it. This has not prevented its being fre- quently used since, and she shows herself more modem than all her predecessors and contemporaries and most of her successors, in the rejection of the major means and the employment of the minor means to produce the enduring effects of "Emma." Among her quiet books it is almost the quietest, and so far as the novel can suggest that repose which is the ideal of art "Emma^' suggests it, in an action of unsurpassed unity, con- sequence, and simplicity.
