It
is
difficult
indeed
--
it
is
distressing
.
One
does
not
know
what
to
think
.
"
582
"
I
beg
your
pardon
;
one
knows
exactly
what
to
think
.

But
Jane
could
think
with
certainty
on
only
one
point
--
that
Mr.
Bingley
,
if
he
had
been
imposed
on
,
would
have
much
to
suffer
when
the
affair
became
public
.

The
two
young
ladies
were
summoned
from
the
shrubbery
,
where
this
conversation
passed
,
by
the
arrival
of
the
very
persons
of
whom
they
had
been
speaking
;
Mr.
Bingley
and
his
sisters
came
to
give
their
personal
invitation
for
the
long-expected
ball
at
Netherfield
,
which
was
fixed
for
the
following
Tuesday
.
The
two
ladies
were
delighted
to
see
their
dear
friend
again
,
called
it
an
age
since
they
had
met
,
and
repeatedly
asked
what
she
had
been
doing
with
herself
since
their
separation
.
To
the
rest
of
the
family
they
paid
little
attention
;
avoiding
Mrs.
Bennet
as
much
as
possible
,
saying
not
much
to
Elizabeth
,
and
nothing
at
all
to
the
others
.
They
were
soon
gone
again
,
rising
from
their
seats
with
an
activity
which
took
their
brother
by
surprise
,
and
hurrying
off
as
if
eager
to
escape
from
Mrs.
Bennet
's
civilities
.
585
The
prospect
of
the
Netherfield
ball
was
extremely
agreeable
to
every
female
of
the
family
.
Mrs.
Bennet
chose
to
consider
it
as
given
in
compliment
to
her
eldest
daughter
,
and
was
particularly
flattered
by
receiving
the
invitation
from
Mr.
Bingley
himself
,
instead
of
a
ceremonious
card
.
586
Jane
pictured
to
herself
a
happy
evening
in
the
society
of
her
two
friends
,
and
the
attentions
of
her
brother
;
and
Elizabeth
thought
with
pleasure
of
dancing
a
great
deal
with
Mr.
Wickham
,
and
of
seeing
a
confirmation
of
everything
in
Mr.
Darcy
's
look
and
behavior
.
The
happiness
anticipated
by
Catherine
and
Lydia
depended
less
on
any
single
event
,
or
any
particular
person
,
for
though
they
each
,
like
Elizabeth
,
meant
to
dance
half
the
evening
with
Mr.
Wickham
,
he
was
by
no
means
the
only
partner
who
could
satisfy
them
,
and
a
ball
was
,
at
any
rate
,
a
ball
.
And
even
Mary
could
assure
her
family
that
she
had
no
disinclination
for
it
.
587
"
While
I
can
have
my
mornings
to
myself
,
"
said
she
,
"
it
is
enough
--
I
think
it
is
no
sacrifice
to
join
occasionally
in
evening
engagements
.
Society
has
claims
on
us
all
;
and
I
profess
myself
one
of
those
who
consider
intervals
of
recreation
and
amusement
as
desirable
for
everybody
.

Elizabeth
's
spirits
were
so
high
on
this
occasion
,
that
though
she
did
not
often
speak
unnecessarily
to
Mr.
Collins
,
she
could
not
help
asking
him
whether
he
intended
to
accept
Mr.
Bingley
's
invitation
,
and
if
he
did
,
whether
he
would
think
it
proper
to
join
in
the
evening
's
amusement
;
and
she
was
rather
surprised
to
find
that
he
entertained
no
scruple
whatever
on
that
head
,
and
was
very
far
from
dreading
a
rebuke
either
from
the
Archbishop
,
or
Lady
Catherine
de
Bourgh
,
by
venturing
to
dance
.
589
"
I
am
by
no
means
of
the
opinion
,
I
assure
you
,
"
said
he
,
"
that
a
ball
of
this
kind
,
given
by
a
young
man
of
character
,
to
respectable
people
,
can
have
any
evil
tendency
;
and
I
am
so
far
from
objecting
to
dancing
myself
,
that
I
shall
hope
to
be
honoured
with
the
hands
of
all
my
fair
cousins
in
the
course
of
the
evening
;
and
I
take
this
opportunity
of
soliciting
yours
,
Miss
Elizabeth
,
for
the
two
first
dances
especially
,
a
preference
which
I
trust
my
cousin
Jane
will
attribute
to
the
right
cause
,
and
not
to
any
disrespect
for
her
.
"

Elizabeth
felt
herself
completely
taken
in
.
She
had
fully
proposed
being
engaged
by
Mr.
Wickham
for
those
very
dances
;
and
to
have
Mr.
Collins
instead
!
her
liveliness
had
never
been
worse
timed
.
There
was
no
help
for
it
,
however
.
Mr.
Wickham
's
happiness
and
her
own
were
perforce
delayed
a
little
longer
,
and
Mr.
Collins
's
proposal
accepted
with
as
good
a
grace
as
she
could
.
She
was
not
the
better
pleased
with
his
gallantry
from
the
idea
it
suggested
of
something
more
.
It
now
first
struck
her
,
that
she
was
selected
from
among
her
sisters
as
worthy
of
being
mistress
of
Hunsford
Parsonage
,
and
of
assisting
to
form
a
quadrille
table
at
Rosings
,
in
the
absence
of
more
eligible
visitors
.
The
idea
soon
reached
to
conviction
,
as
she
observed
his
increasing
civilities
toward
herself
,
and
heard
his
frequent
attempt
at
a
compliment
on
her
wit
and
vivacity
;
and
though
more
astonished
than
gratified
herself
by
this
effect
of
her
charms
,
it
was
not
long
before
her
mother
gave
her
to
understand
that
the
probability
of
their
marriage
was
extremely
agreeable
to
her
.
Elizabeth
,
however
,
did
not
choose
to
take
the
hint
,
being
well
aware
that
a
serious
dispute
must
be
the
consequence
of
any
reply
.
Mr.
Collins
might
never
make
the
offer
,
and
till
he
did
,
it
was
useless
to
quarrel
about
him
.
