:11:22
Wait!
:11:40
- I enjoyed that so much, Miss Lucas.
- How well you dance, Mr Bingley.
:11:45
I've never enjoyed a dance so much.
:11:48
My daughter Jane
is a splendid dancer, is she not?
:11:51
She is indeed.
:11:53
Your friend Miss Lucas
is a most amusing young woman.
:11:57
Oh, yes, I adore her.
:11:58
- It is a pity she's not more handsome.
- Mama!
:12:03
Oh, but Lizzie
would never admit that she's plain.
:12:06
Of course, it's my Jane who's considered
the beauty of the county.
:12:10
Mama, please!
:12:12
When she was 15, a gentleman
was so much in love with her,
:12:15
I was sure he would make her an offer.
:12:17
However, he did write her
some very pretty verses.
:12:21
And that put paid to it.
:12:22
I wonder who discovered the power
of poetry in driving away love.
:12:25
- I thought poetry was the food of love.
- Of a fine, stout love.
:12:29
But if it is only a vague inclination,
one poor sonnet will kill it.
:12:32
So, what do you recommend
to encourage affection?
:12:36
Dancing. Even if one's partner
is barely tolerable.
