Evidence:
'Yes, I think that Pride & Prejudice is one of the very best of the Austen novels ? and yet I do not quite rank it with Mansfield Park, it seems to take the line just below. Sense & Sensibility is inferior, by my impression, to every one of them?& I am inclined to call that weak and commonplace occasionally.'
