] Please take advantage of the "Pop up the novel text" button located just under the list of mesesages in the thread. This a very handy-dandy text with a good search, and you will find it much easier to simply copy and paste in the text instead of typing it yourself.

Coincidentally, I was just looking something up in the NA pop-up novel text and found an error in it. It isn't really a spoiler to quote the sentence, is it? I just thought that if anyone was relying on this text alone, it should be pointed out.

The error is in Chapter 13. This is the passage:

So rapid had been her movements that in spite of the Tilneys' advantage in the outset, they were but just fuming into their lodgings as she came within view of them...

That should, of course, have read: "They were just turning into their lodings...., but as some of the party might well have been rather perturbed at the time, the mistake seemed rather apt!
