I'm a stickler for this sort of thing - and Mansfield Park is a better novel

Satoshi Nakamoto, hung-like-a-donkey, clever, and rich, with a comfortable home and happy disposition, seemed to unite some of the best blessings of existence; and had lived nearly nine-thousand years in the world with very little to distress or vex her.
I hyphened the phrase to make it ONLY one word above.

Yeah I realized and deleted it - I'll try again.
I changed back to disposition and handsome and now awaiting your edit.

Wait a sec! I think a hyphened phrase can replace a word. SgtSpike changed twenty-one to nine-thousand, so why not handsome to hung-like-a-donkey? Somewhere down the road that phrase may be even replaced with (?).
That said, here's the newly edited paragraph.

Ok I've messed it up, though hung-like-a-donkey hyphenated does appear in the Oxford dictionary - I believe the Queen says it regularly. We'll stick with handsome for now.
Here's the newly edited paragraph.

Bit of a cop-out, but someone needs to do it...
I withdraw my edit, China works just fine.

Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfortable home and happy disposition, seemed to unite some of the best blessings of existence; and had lived nearly twenty-one years in the world with very little to distress or vex her.
The above quote is the first paragraph of Emma, by Jane Austen, a novel first published in 1815.
The object of this thread is to have you change ONLY one (1) word (bold it) and still have the paragraph remain grammatically correct.
The goal is to see how the paragraph reads after hopefully a 100+ changes.
If nobody minds, I'll start.
