And do you really love him quite well enough�拭�Oh�察�Lizzy� �do any
thing rather than marry without affection。 Are you quite sure that
you feel what you ought to do�拭�
`Oh�察 �yes� �You will only think I feel more than I ought to do�察�
when I tell you all。¨
`What do you mean�拭�
`Why�察�I must confess�察�that I love him better than I do Bingley。 I
am afraid you will be angry。¨
`My dearest sister�察�now be serious。 I want to talk very seriously。
Let me know every thing that I am to know�察 �without delay。 Will
you tell me how long you have loved him�拭�

`It has been coming on so gradually�察�that I hardly know when it
began。 But I believe I must date it from my first seeing his
beautiful grounds at Pemberley。¨
Another intreaty that she would be serious�察�however�察�produced
the desired effect�察 �and she soon satisfied Jane by her solemn
assurances of attachment。 When convinced on that article�察 �Miss
Bennet had nothing farther to wish。
`Now I am quite happy�察� said she�察 �for you will be as happy as
myself。 I always had a value for him。 Were it for nothing but his
love of you�察 �I must always have esteemed him�察 �but now�察 �as
Bingley¨s friend and your husband�察�there can be only Bingley and
yourself more dear to me。 But Lizzy�察�you have been very sly�察�very
reserved with me。 How little did you tell me of what passed at
Pemberley and Lambton� �I owe all that I know of it�察 �to another�察�
not to you。¨
Elizabeth told her the motives of her secrecy。 She had been
unwilling to mention Bingley�察�and the unsettled state of her own
feelings had made her equally avoid the name of his friend。 But
now she would no longer conceal from her�察 �his share in Lydia¨s
marriage。 All was acknowledged�察 �and half the night spent in
conversation。
!!!!!!
`Good gracious� � cried Mrs。 Bennet�察 �as she stood at a window
the next morning�察 �if that disagreeable Mr。 Darcy is not coming
here again with our dear Bingley� �What can he mean by being so
tiresome as to be always coming here�拭 �I had no notion but he
would go a shooting�察 �or something or other�察 �and not disturb us

with his company。 What shall we do with him�拭 �Lizzy�察 �you must
walk out with him again�察�that he may not be in Bingley¨s way。¨
Elizabeth could hardly help laughing at so convenient a
proposal�察 �yet was really vexed that her mother should be always
giving him such an epithet。
As soon as they entered�察�Bingley looked at her so expressively�察�
and shook hands with such warmth�察�as left no doubt of his good
information�察�and he soon afterwards said aloud�察 �Mr。 Bennet�察� have
you no more lanes hereabouts in which Lizzy may lose her way
again to´day�拭�
`I advise Mr。 Darcy�察�and Lizzy�察�and Kitty�察� said Mrs。 Bennet�察 �to
walk to Oakham Mount this morning。 It is a nice long walk�察�and
Mr。 Darcy has never seen the view。¨
`It may do very well for the others�察� replied Mr。 Bingley�察 �but I
am sure it will be too much for Kitty。 Wont it�察�Kitty�拭�
Kitty owned that she had rather stay at home。 Darcy professed
a great curiosity to see the view from the Mount�察 �and Elizabeth
silently consented。 As she went up stairs to get ready�察�Mrs。 Bennet
followed her�察�saying�察�
`I am quite sorry�察�Lizzy�察�that you should be forced to have that
disagreeable man all to yourself。 But I hope you will not mind it�此�it
is all for Jane¨s sake�察 �you know�察 �and there is no occasion for
talking to him�察�except just now and then。 So�察�do not put yourself to
inconvenience。¨
During their walk�察 �it was resolved that Mr。 Bennet¨s consent
should be asked in the course of the evening。 Elizabeth reserved to
herself the application for her mother¨s。 She could not determine
how her mother would take it�察�sometimes doubting whether all his
wealth and grandeur would be enough to overcome her

abhorrence of the man。 But whether she were violently set against
the match�察 �or violently delighted with it�察 �it was certain that her
manner would be equally ill adapted to do credit to her sense�察�and
she could no more bear that Mr。 Darcy should hear the first
raptures of her joy�察 �than the first vehemence of her
disapprobation。
!!!!!!
In the evening�察�soon after Mr。 Bennet withdrew to the library�察�
she saw Mr。 Darcy rise also and follow him�察�and her agitation on
seeing it was extreme。 She did not fear her father¨s opposition�察�but
he was going to be made unhappy�察�and that it should be through
her means�察�that she�察�his favourite child�察�should be distressing him
by her choice�察 �should be filling him with fears and regrets in
disposing of her�察�was a wretched reflection�察�and she sat in misery
till Mr。 Darcy appeared again�察 �when�察 �looking at him�察 �she was a
little relieved by his smile。 In a few minutes he approached the
table where she was sitting with Kitty�察 �and�察 �while pretending to
admire her work�察�said in a whisper�察 �Go to your father�察 �he wants
you in the library。¨ She was gone directly。
Her father was walking about the room�察 �looking grave and
anxious。 `Lizzy�察� said he�察 �what are you doing�拭�Are you out of your
senses�察 �to be accepting this man�拭 �Have not you always hated
him�拭�
How earnestly did she then wish that her former opinions had
been more reasonable�察 �her expressions more moderate� �It would
have spared her from explanations and professions which it was
exceedingly awkward to give�察 �but they were now necessary�察 �and

she assured him with some confusion�察 �of her attachment to Mr。
Darcy。
`Or in other words�察�you are determined to have him。 He is rich�察�
to be sure�察�and you may have more fine clothes and fine carriages
than Jane。 But will they make you happy�拭�
`Have you any other objection�察� said Elizabeth�察 �than your belief
of my indifference�拭�
`None at all。 We all know him to be a proud�察�unpleasant sort of
man�察�but this would be nothing if you really liked him。¨
`I do�察�I do like him�察� she replied�察�with tears in her eyes�察 �I love
him。 Indeed he has no improper pride。 He is perfectly amiable。
You do not know what he really is�察�then pray do not pain me by
speaking of him in such terms。¨
`Lizzy�察� said
