I also forgot Nurse Rooke in Persuasion. Written by donald s. taylor (3/10/2003 6:17 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, I've always felt ..., penned by Anne P

In my cautious opinion, she, who, as Mrs. Smith informs us, is more likely to see the flaws than the virtues in her patients, is kind of a stand-in for Jane Austen, who shares that ability.
