Diana - Emma 9-19

In chapters 9-19, Emma continues to notice those faults in others that she herself has. I also noticed that when an important idea or emotion strikes Emma, Austen uses a short, direct sentence.
"She was vexed." (p. 99)
"It really was so." (p. 103 - Mr. Elton loves her)

We see the same pattern later with Knightley:
"His letters disgust me." (p. 117)

I find Austen's dry humor hilarious, and some of my fellow passengers on the bus looked at me strangely when I laughed out loud in several spots.
"...in the most overpowering period of Mr. Elton's nonsense,..." (p. 94)
"It was rather too late in the day to set about being simple-minded and ignorant;" (p. 112)

Mr. Knightley's vexation (p. 119) interested me. Why is he angry? And with whom?

The information Emma gleaned from her visit to the Bateses' household was interesting. Why did she zero in on Jane's coming to visit the Bateses rather than going to visit Ireland with the Campbells? Emma also focused on the fact that Jane is prettier than Miss Campbell/Mrs. Dixon (another dual-name instance that confused me for a few paragraphs.) I think we'll read interesting interactions with Jane Fairfax when she appears.
