I agree with every point! Written by Jeffrey (9/29/2009 5:04 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Colonel Brandon: A Dashing Figure?, penned by BarbaraB

Marianne is not even aware of his virtues yet but I think his gallantry and true character will soon be patiently unfolded in front of the object of his great desire
