    He   had   been   some   time   with   Mr。   Gardiner   who�察  �with   two   or 

three other gentlemen from the house�察�was engaged by the river�察�

and   had   left   him   only   on   learning   that   the   ladies   of   the   family 

intended   a     visit   to  Georgiana      that  morning。      No    sooner    did   he 

appear�察  �than   Elizabeth   wisely   resolved   to   be   perfectly   easy   and 

unembarrassed�察�a resolution the more necessary to be made�察�but 

perhaps       not   the   more    easily    kept�察  �because     she    saw    that   the 

suspicions   of   the   whole   party   were   awakened   against   them�察  �and 

that there was scarcely an eye which did not watch his behaviour 

when he first came into the room。 In no countenance was attentive 

curiosity  so  strongly  marked as   in   Miss   Bingley¨s�察  �in   spite   of   the 

smiles which overspread her face whenever she spoke to one of its 

objects�察    �for   jealousy   had   not   yet   made     her   desperate�察    �and   her 

attentions to Mr。 Darcy were by no means over。 Miss Darcy�察�on her 

brother¨s      entrance�察     �exerted     herself    much     more     to   talk�察  �and 

Elizabeth saw that he was anxious for his sister and herself to get 

acquainted�察�and forwarded�察�as much as possible�察�every attempt at 

conversation   on   either   side。   Miss   Bingley   saw   all        this   likewise�察�

and�察   �in  the   imprudence        of  anger�察  �took    the  first  opportunity      of 

saying�察�with sneering civility�察�

    `Pray�察   �Miss    Eliza�察  �are   not   the  !shire     militia    removed      from 

Meryton�拭�They must be a great loss to your family。¨ 

    In   Darcy¨s   presence   she   dared   not   mention   Wickham¨s   name�察�

but  Elizabeth  instantly  comprehended   that  he   was   uppermost   in 

her   thoughts�察  �and   the   various   recollections   connected   with   him 

gave   her   a   moment¨s   distress�察  �but�察  �exerting   herself   vigorously   to

repel   the   ill´natured attack�察  �she   presently answered   the   question 

in   a   tolerably   disengaged   tone。   While   she   spoke�察  �an   involuntary 

glance      shewed      her    Darcy     with    an    heightened       complexion�察�

earnestly looking  at  her�察  �and   his   sister  overcome   with  confusion�察�

and unable to lift up her eyes。 Had Miss Bingley known what pain 

she   was   then   giving   her   beloved   friend�察  �she   undoubtedly   would 

have   refrained      from    the   hint�察 �but   she   had    merely    intended     to 

discompose   Elizabeth�察  �by   bringing   forward   the   idea   of   a   man   to 

whom   she   believed   her   partial�察  �to   make   her   betray   a   sensibility 

which might injure her in Darcy¨s opinion�察�and perhaps to remind 

the latter of all the follies and absurdities�察�by which some part of 

her family were connected with that corps。 Not a syllable had ever 

reached her of Miss Darcy¨s meditated elopement。 To no creature 

had     it  been    revealed�察   �where     secresy     was    possible�察   �except    to 

Elizabeth�察     �and   from    all  Bingley¨s    connections      her   brother     was 

particularly      anxious     to  conceal     it�察 �from   that   very   wish    which 

Elizabeth      had    long   ago    attributed     to  him�察   �of  their   becoming 

hereafter      her   own。   He    had   certainly    formed     such    a  plan�察  �and 

without   meaning   that   it   should   affect   his   endeavour   to   separate 

him from Miss Bennet�察�it is probable that it might add something 

to his lively concern for the welfare of his friend。 

    Elizabeth¨s      collected     behaviour�察    �however�察     �soon    quieted     his 

emotion�察�and as Miss Bingley�察�vexed and disappointed�察�dared not 

approach   nearer   to   Wickham�察  �Georgiana   also   recovered   in   time�察�

though   not   enough   to   be   able   to   speak   any   more。   Her   brother�察�

whose eye she feared to meet�察�scarcely recollected her interest in 

the affair�察�and the very circumstance which had been designed to 

turn   his   thoughts   from   Elizabeth�察  �seemed   to   have   fixed   them   on 

her more�察�and more cheerfully。

    Their visit did not continue long after the question and answer 

above´mentioned�察        �and    while   Mr。   Darcy    was    attending    them    to 

their carriage�察�Miss Bingley was venting her feelings in criticisms 

on Elizabeth¨s person�察�behaviour�察�and dress。 But Georgiana would 

not join her。 Her brother¨s recommendation was enough to ensure 

her favour�此�his judgment could not err�察�and he had spoken in such 

terms   of   Elizabeth�察  �as   to   leave   Georgiana   without   the   power   of 

finding     her   otherwise     than    lovely   and    amiable。     When     Darcy 

returned   to  the   saloon�察  �Miss   Bingley   could   not   help   repeating   to 

him some part of what she had been saying to his sister。 

    `How very ill Eliza Bennet looks this morning�察�Mr。 Darcy�察� she 

cried�察   �I   never   in   my   life   saw   any   one   so  much   altered   as   she   is 

since the winter。 She is grown so brown and coarse� �Louisa and I 

were agreeing that we should not have known her again。¨ 

    However little Mr。 Darcy might have liked such an address�察�he 

contented himself with coolly replying�察�that he perceived no other 

alteration      than     her    being     rather     tanned�察�no         miraculous 

consequence of travelling in the summer。 

    `For   my   own   part�察�   she   rejoined�察   �I   must   confess   that   I   never 

could see any beauty in her。 Her face is too thin�察�her complexion 

has   no  brilliancy�察  �and   her   features   are   not   at  all   handsome。   Her 

nose   wants   character�察  �there   is   nothing   marked   in   its   lines。   Her 

teeth are tolerable�察�but not out of the common way�察�and as for her 

eyes�察  �which   have   sometimes   been   called   so   fine�察      �I   never   could 

perceive     any   thing    extraordinary      in  them。   They    have    a  sharp�察�

shrewish look�察�which I do not like at all�察�and in her air altogether�察�

there is a self´sufficiency without fashion�察�which is intolerable。¨ 

    Persuaded as Miss Bingley was that Darcy admired Elizabeth�察�

this was not the best method of recommending herself�察�but angry

people      are   not   always     wise�察   �and   in   seeing    him    at   last  look 

somewhat   nettled�察  �she   had   all   the   success   she   expected。   He   was 

resolutely   silent   however�察  �and�察  �from   a   determination   of   making 

him speak�察�she continued�察�

    `I   remember�察  �when   we   first   knew   her   in       Hertfordshire�察     �how 

amazed we all were to find that she was a   reputed beauty�察  �and I 

particularly   recollect   your   saying   one   night�察  �after   they   had   been 

dining   at   Netherfield�察   �She  a   beauty� �I   should   as   soon   call   her 

mother a wit。 ̄ But afterwards she seemed to improve on you�察�and 

I believe you thought her rather pretty at one time。¨ 

    `Yes�察� replied Darcy�察�who could contain himself no longer�察 �but 

that was only when I first knew her�察�for it is many months since I 

have     considered      her   as   one   of  the   handsomest       women       of  my 

acquaintance。¨
