Fanny's reaction. Written by Reeba (10/17/2010 4:53 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, Fanny gets mean for a moment, penned by Robbin

>It is enough to make one poke someone in the eye with her quill pen. (:D)

Mary doesn't know how lucky she is to have only her letter near Fanny instead of her person. :-D

Finally Fanny feels the same frustrations as most readers do with regards to Edmund. Particularly this line from the letter;

"He is blinded, and nothing will open his eyes; nothing can, after having had truths before him so long in vain."

I also find this line;
"She is quite as likely to have led them astray."..with the emphasis on 'them'...very very descriptive of Fanny's feelings for Mary.
