Answer: This is a passage from <em>"Emma"</em>, a novel written by Jane Austen.

Explanation:

<em>"Emma" </em>is Jane Austen's 1815 novel. It is a story about the relationships between different people and families in the fictional village of Highbury. The protagonist of the story is Emma Woodhouse, a twenty-year-old.

The passage given above is an excerpt from <em>Chapter 47</em>. Emma is having a conversation with her friend, Harriet Smith. Harriet reveals to Emma that she has certain feelings for Mr. Knightley, a landowner who is almost twenty years older than her. Throughout the novel, Emma never truly thinks about her own feelings - she is too busy finding a perfect match for Harriet. It is only when Harriet confesses that she is in love with Knightley that Emma becomes jealous and realizes that she might love him, too.
