1"In one respect, perhaps, Mr. Elton's manners are superior to Mr. Knightley's or Mr. Weston's. They have more
2gentleness. They might be more safely held up as a pattern. There is an openness, a quickness, almost a bluntness in Mr.
3Weston, which every body likes in him, because there is so much good-humour with it--but that would not do to be copied.
4Neither would Mr. Knightley's downright, decided, commanding sort of manner, though it suits him very well; his figure,
5and look, and situation in life seem to allow it; but if any young man were to set about copying him, he would not be
6sufferable. On the contrary, I think a young man might be very safely recommended to take Mr. Elton as a model. Mr.
7Elton is good-humoured, cheerful, obliging, and gentle. He seems to me to be grown particularly gentle of late. I do not
8know whether he has any design of ingratiating himself with either of us, Harriet, by additional softness, but it
9strikes me that his manners are softer than they used to be. If he means any thing, it must be to please you. Did not I
10tell you what he said of you the other day?" She then repeated some warm personal praise which she had drawn from Mr.
11Elton, and now did full justice to; and Harriet blushed and smiled, and said she had always thought Mr. Elton very
12agreeable. Mr. Elton was the very person fixed on by Emma for driving the young farmer out of Harriet's head. She
13thought it would be an excellent match; and only too palpably desirable, natural, and probable, for her to have much
14merit in planning it. She feared it was what every body else must think of and predict. It was not likely, however, that
15any body should have equalled her in the date of the plan, as it had entered her brain during the very first evening of
16Harriet's coming to Hartfield. The longer she considered it, the greater was her sense of its expediency. Mr. Elton's
17situation was most suitable, quite the gentleman himself, and without low connexions; at the same time, not of any
18family that could fairly object to the doubtful birth of Harriet. He had a comfortable home for her, and Emma imagined a
19very sufficient income; for though the vicarage of Highbury was not large, he was known to have some independent
20property; and she thought very highly of him as a good-humoured, well-meaning, respectable young man, without any
21deficiency of useful understanding or knowledge of the world. She had already satisfied herself that he thought Harriet
22a beautiful girl, which she trusted, with such frequent meetings at Hartfield, was foundation enough on his side; and on
23Harriet's there could be little doubt that the idea of being preferred by him would have all the usual weight and
24efficacy. And he was really a very pleasing young man, a young man whom any woman not fastidious might like. He was
25reckoned very handsome; his person much admired in general, though not by her, there being a want of elegance of feature
26which she could not dispense with:--but the girl who could be gratified by a Robert Martin's riding about the country to
27get walnuts for her might very well be conquered by Mr. Elton's admiration.
