:52:03
Perhaps Mr Collins has a cousin.
:52:09
- What is that?
- What?
:52:11
Maybe he's changed his mind.
:52:16
Coming!
:52:21
Yes.
:52:25
Lady Catherine.
:52:32
The rest of your offspring, I presume?
:52:35
All but one. The youngest
has been lately married, your Ladyship.
:52:39
My eldest was proposed to
only this afternoon.
:52:43
- You have a very small garden.
- Could I offer you a cup of tea?
:52:47
Absolutely not. I need to speak
to Miss Elizabeth Bennet alone.
:52:51
As a matter of urgency.
:52:57
You can be at no loss
to understand why I am here.
:53:01
I cannot account for this honour at all.
:53:03
I warn you, I am not to be trifled with.
:53:07
A most alarming report
has reached me.
:53:10
That you intend to be united
with my nephew, Mr Darcy.
:53:14
I know this to be a falsehood.
Though not wishing to injure him
:53:18
by supposing it possible, I instantly
set off to make my sentiments known.
:53:22
If you believed it impossible,
I wonder that you came so far.
:53:25
To hear it contradicted.
:53:26
Your coming will be a confirmation
if such a report exists.
:53:30
lf? You pretend to be ignorant of it?
:53:33
Has it not been
industriously circulated by yourself?
:53:36
I have never heard of it.
:53:38
Can you declare
there is no foundation for it?
:53:41
I do not pretend to possess
equal frankness with your Ladyship.
:53:44
You may ask a question
which I may choose not to answer.
:53:47
Has my nephew
made you an offer of marriage?
:53:50
Your Ladyship has declared it
to be impossible.
:53:53
Mr Darcy is engaged to my daughter.
Now what have you to say?
:53:56
If that is the case, you cannot suppose
he would make an offer to me.
