  [Scolding Emma for encouraging Mr. Elton by inviting him to so many social events] 

• Mr. Knightley : [Speaking of Harriet's engagement to William Larkins]  I must admit that I had a hand in bringing them together.

  Emma Woodhouse : [amused and feeling vindicated that even Knightley can play matchmaker]  You mean you made the match yourself?
