“This is not to be borne.Miss Be,I insist on being satisfied. Has he,has my nephew,made you an offer of marriage?”
“Yourdyship has dered it to be impossible.”
“It ought to be so; it must be so, while he retains the use of his reason. But your arts and allurements may, in a moment of infatuation,have made him et what he owes to himself and to all his family.You may have drawn him in.”
“If I have,I shall be thest person to fess it.”
“Miss Be, do you know who I am? I have not been ustomed to suguage as this. I am almost the rtion he has in the world, and am entitled to know all his dearest s.”
“But you are led to know mine;nor will such behaviour as this,ever induce me to be explicit.”
“Let me be rightly uood.This match,to which you have the presumption to aspire,ever take o,never.Mr. Darcy is eo my daughter.Now what have you to say?”
“Only this;that if he is so,you have no reason to suppose he will make an offer to me.”
Lady Catheriated for a moment,and then replied:
“The e between them is of a peculiar kind. From their infancy, they have been intended for each other. It was the favourite wish of his mother, as well as of hers.While in their cradles, we he union: and now, at the moment when the wishes of both sisters would be omplished is their marriage,to be prevented by a young woman of inferior birth,of no importan the world, and wholly unallied to the family! Do you pay nard to the wishes of his friends?To his tacit e with Miss de Bh?Are you lost to every feeling of propriety and delicacy?Have you not heard me say that from his earliest hours he was destined for his cousin?”
“Yes, and I had heard it before. But what is that to me? If there is no other obje to my marrying your nephew,I shall certainly not be kept from it by knowing that his mother and aunt wished him to marry Miss de Bh.You both did as much as you could in nning the marriage.Itspletion depended on others.If Mr.Darcy is her by honour nor ination fio his cousin,why is not he to make another choid if I am that choice,why may not I ept him?”
“Because honour, de, prudenay, i, forbid it. Yes, Miss Be, i; for do not expect to be noticed by his family or friends, if you wilfully act against the inations of all.You will be sured,slighted,and despised,by everyone ected with him.Your alliance will be a disgrace;your name will never even be mentioned by any of us.”
“These are heavy misfortunes,”replied Elizabeth.“But the wife of Mr.Darcy must have such extraordinary sources of happiness necessarily attached to her situation, that she could, upon the whole,have no cause to repine.”
“Obstinate,headstrong girl!I am ashamed of you!Is this yratitude for my attentions to youst spring?Is nothing due to me on that score?Let us sit down.You are to uand,Miss Be, that I came here with the determined resolution of carrying my purpose;nor will I be dissuaded from it.I have not beeo submit to any person's whims.I have not been in the habit of brooking disappoi.”
“That will make yourdyship's situation at present more pitiable;but it will have no effee.”
“I will not be interrupted.Hear me in silence.My daughter and my nephew are formed for each other.They are desded,oernal side,from the same noble line;and,oher's,from respectable,honourable,and ahough untitled—families. Their fortune on both sides is splendid.They are destined for each other by the voice of every member of their respective houses;and what is to divide them?The upstart pretensions of a young woman without family,es,or fortune.Is this to be endured!But it must not,shall not be.If you were sensible of your own good,you would not wish to quit the sphere in which you have been brought up.”
“In marrying your nephew, I should not sider myself as quitting that sphere. He is a gentleman; I am a gentleman's daughter;so far we are equal.”
“True.You are a gentleman's daughter.But who was your mother? Who are your uncles and aunts?Do not imagine me ignorant of their dition.”
“Whatever my eay be,”said Elizabeth,“if your nephew does not object to them,they be nothing to you.”
