Answer: Miranda Tanistry Griscomb

Miranda put a spell on Dorothea so that all young men (and some old too) will fall in love with her. But when she is away from them, the men forget their feelings. Only Robert Penwood is able to really fall in love. He and Dorothea run off together near the end of the novel, thanks to the help of both Kate and Cecy.
13. How is Miranda defeated?

Answer: Her true age is reflected back on her.

Miranda attempts to transfer her own age onto Kate and then take Kate's youth. But Lady Sylvia Schoefield sneaks into the room and reflects not only Miranda's true age back onto her, but also the age of all others in the room, including Lady Sylvia. It is too much and Miranda is reduced to a pile of dust.
