Edmund about Mr Rushworth Written by Lis M (9/15/2010 2:37 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, Mr. Rushworth!, penned by Carol

I agree, Jane is quite a character assasin, but the line also gives us a different view on Edmund, of him having a nasty streak that makes him more likeable. I wonder though would he ever let it out around Fanny? She seems to be quite infantile, and sarcasm is for grown-ups.
