Maria Edgeworth reference Written by LouAnn (9/20/2009 1:11 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Paper filigree basket, penned by Barbara

I had never thought of how quickly the spoiled child will tear it apart! Good point.

My Oxford U Press "World's Classics" edition of S&S has a note that a filigree basket for a spoiled child also appeared in Maria Edgeworth's story "The Birthday Present" published in 1800.
