Only just noticed your comment, so sorry for the late reply! And thank you so much. I'm glad you think it worked. Yes, it would have been so tempting to give her a modern view on the matter. But I think it's still important to remember that we're writing about Victorians, and even those with relatively modern attitudes won't have the same liberal values that we have today. That's part of the challenge, isn't it?
Anyway, thanks again - and have a merry Christmas! :)
