I
do
assure
you
,
sir
,
that
I
have
no
pretensions
whatever
to
that
kind
of
elegance
which
consists
in
tormenting
a
respectable
man
.
I
would
rather
be
paid
the
compliment
of
being
believed
sincere
.
I
thank
you
again
and
again
for
the
honour
you
have
done
me
in
your
proposals
,
but
to
accept
them
is
absolutely
impossible
.
My
feelings
in
every
respect
forbid
it
.
Can
I
speak
plainer
?
Do
not
consider
me
now
as
an
elegant
female
,
intending
to
plague
you
,
but
as
a
rational
creature
,
speaking
the
truth
from
her
heart
.
"

"
You
are
uniformly
charming
!
"
cried
he
,
with
an
air
of
awkward
gallantry
;
"
and
I
am
persuaded
that
when
sanctioned
by
the
express
authority
of
both
your
excellent
parents
,
my
proposals
will
not
fail
of
being
acceptable
.
"
693
To
such
perseverance
in
wilful
self-deception
Elizabeth
would
make
no
reply
,
and
immediately
and
in
silence
withdrew
;
determined
,
if
he
persisted
in
considering
her
repeated
refusals
as
flattering
encouragement
,
to
apply
to
her
father
,
whose
negative
might
be
uttered
in
such
a
manner
as
to
be
decisive
,
and
whose
behavior
at
least
could
not
be
mistaken
for
the
affectation
and
coquetry
of
an
elegant
female
.

Mr.
Collins
was
not
left
long
to
the
silent
contemplation
of
his
successful
love
;
for
Mrs.
Bennet
,
having
dawdled
about
in
the
vestibule
to
watch
for
the
end
of
the
conference
,
no
sooner
saw
Elizabeth
open
the
door
and
with
quick
step
pass
her
towards
the
staircase
,
than
she
entered
the
breakfast-room
,
and
congratulated
both
him
and
herself
in
warm
terms
on
the
happy
prospect
or
their
nearer
connection
.
Mr.
Collins
received
and
returned
these
felicitations
with
equal
pleasure
,
and
then
proceeded
to
relate
the
particulars
of
their
interview
,
with
the
result
of
which
he
trusted
he
had
every
reason
to
be
satisfied
,
since
the
refusal
which
his
cousin
had
steadfastly
given
him
would
naturally
flow
from
her
bashful
modesty
and
the
genuine
delicacy
of
her
character
.
695
This
information
,
however
,
startled
Mrs.
Bennet
;
she
would
have
been
glad
to
be
equally
satisfied
that
her
daughter
had
meant
to
encourage
him
by
protesting
against
his
proposals
,
but
she
dared
not
believe
it
,
and
could
not
help
saying
so
.
696
"
But
,
depend
upon
it
,
Mr.
Collins
,
"
she
added
,
"
that
Lizzy
shall
be
brought
to
reason
.
I
will
speak
to
her
about
it
directly
.
She
is
a
very
headstrong
,
foolish
girl
,
and
does
not
know
her
own
interest
but
I
will
make
her
know
it
.
"
697
"
Pardon
me
for
interrupting
you
,
madam
,
"
cried
Mr.
Collins
;
"
but
if
she
is
really
headstrong
and
foolish
,
I
know
not
whether
she
would
altogether
be
a
very
desirable
wife
to
a
man
in
my
situation
,
who
naturally
looks
for
happiness
in
the
marriage
state
.
If
therefore
she
actually
persists
in
rejecting
my
suit
,
perhaps
it
were
better
not
to
force
her
into
accepting
me
,
because
if
liable
to
such
defects
of
temper
,
she
could
not
contribute
much
to
my
felicity
.

"
Sir
,
you
quite
misunderstand
me
,
"
said
Mrs.
Bennet
,
alarmed
.
"
Lizzy
is
only
headstrong
in
such
matters
as
these
.
In
everything
else
she
is
as
good-natured
a
girl
as
ever
lived
.
I
will
go
directly
to
Mr.
Bennet
,
and
we
shall
very
soon
settle
it
with
her
,
I
am
sure
.
"
699
She
would
not
give
him
time
to
reply
,
but
hurrying
instantly
to
her
husband
,
called
out
as
she
entered
the
library
,
"
Oh
!
Mr.
Bennet
,
you
are
wanted
immediately
;
we
are
all
in
an
uproar
.
You
must
come
and
make
Lizzy
marry
Mr.
Collins
,
for
she
vows
she
will
not
have
him
,
and
if
you
do
not
make
haste
he
will
change
his
mind
and
not
have
her
.
"
700
Mr.
Bennet
raised
his
eyes
from
his
book
as
she
entered
,
and
fixed
them
on
her
face
with
a
calm
unconcern
which
was
not
in
the
least
altered
by
her
communication
.
