    “They met again on Sunday,and then I saw him too.It was not all settled before Monday:as soon as it was,the express was sent off to Longbourn. But our visitor was very obstinate. I fancy, Lizzy,that obstinacy is the real defect of his character,after all. He has been used of many faults at different times,but this is the true ohing was to be dohat he did not do himself;though I am sure(and I do not speak it to be thaherefore say nothing about it),your uncle would most readily have settled the whole.

    “They battled it together for a long time,which was more thaher the gentleman ordy ed in it deserved.But atst your uncle was forced to yield, and instead of being allowed to be of use to his niece,was forced to put up with only having the probable credit of it,which went sorely against the grain;and I really believe your letter this m gave him great pleasure, because it required aion that would rob him of his borrowed feathers, and give the praise where it was due. But, Lizzy,this must go no farther than yourself,or Ja most.

    “You know pretty well,I suppose,what has been done for the young people.His debts are to be paid,amounting,I believe,to siderably more than a thousand pounds, ahousand in addition to her owled upon her, and hismission purchased.The reason why all this was to be done by him alone, was such as I have given above.It was owing to him,to his reserve and want of proper sideration, that Wickham's character had been so misuood,and sequently that he had been received and noticed as he erhaps there was some truth in this;though I doubt whether his reserve,or anybody's reserve, be answerable for the event.But in spite of all this fialking, my dear Lizzy, you may rest perfectly assured that your uncle would never have yielded, if we had not given him credit for another i in the affair.

    “When all this was resolved ourned again to his friends, who were still staying at Pemberley; but it was agreed that he should be in London once more when the wedding took ce, and all money matters were then to receive thest finish.

    “I believe I have now told you every thing.It is a rtion which you tell me is to give you great surprise;I hope at least it will not afford you any displeasure.Lydia came to us;and Wickham had stant admission to the house. He was exactly what he had been,when I knew him ifordshire;but I would not tell you how little I was satisfied with her behaviour while she stayed with us,if I had not perceived,by Jane's letterst Wednesday, that her duing home was exactly of a piece with it, and therefore what I now tell you  give you no fresh pain. I talked to her repeatedly in the most serious manner,representing to her all the wiess of what she had done, and all the unhappiness she had brought on her family.If she heard me, it was by good luck, for I am sure she did not listen. I was sometimes quite provoked, but then I recollected my dear Elizabeth and Jane,and for their sakes had patieh her.

    “Mr.Darcy unctual in his return,and as Lydia informed you, attehe wedding. He dined with us the  day, and was to leave town again on Wednesday or Thursday.Will you be very angry with me,my dear Lizzy,if I take this opportunity of saying (what I was never bold enough to say before) how much I like him. His behaviour to us has, in every respect, been as pleasing as when we were in Derbyshire. His uanding and opinions all please me; he wants nothing but a little more liveliness,and that,if he marry prudently,his wife may teach him. I thought him very sly;—he hardly ever mentioned your name. But slyness seems the fashion.

    “Pray ive me if I have been very presuming,or at least do not punish me so far as to exclude me from P. I shall never be quite happy till I have been all round the park.A low phaeton, with a tle pair of ponies,would be the very thing.

    “But I must write no more.The children have been wantihis half hour.

    “Yours,very sincerely,

    “M.GARDINER.”快眼看书小说阅读_www.bookcu.com
