From Emma, by Jane Austen
EMMA BEGINS
"Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfortable home and
happy disposition, seemed to unite some of the best blessings of
existence; and had lived nearly twenty-one years in the world with very
little to distress or vex her."
From Book One, Chapter One (to mark the 300 anniversary of the novel's publication.)
