Image description

From Chapter 24 of 'Sense and Sensibility' by Jane Austen (1775-1817) first published 1818. This edition published in 1921 by Macmillan and Co. using Thomson's plates from 1896. Discussion around the card table at Barton Park about beaux as 'great coxcombs' not knowing Lucy Steele and Elinor have the same: “I can answer for it that Miss Dashwood’s is not,” said Mrs. Jennings, laughing heartily; “for he is one of the modestest, prettiest behaved young men I ever saw. But as for Lucy, she is such a sly little creature, there is no finding out who she likes.”
