:23:14
A Mrs Bennet, a Miss Bennet,
a Miss Bennet and a Miss Bennet, sir.
:23:19
Are we to receive every
Bennet in the country?
:23:25
What an excellent room you have, sir.
:23:28
Such expensive furnishings.
:23:32
I do hope
you intend to stay here, Mr Bingley.
:23:35
Absolutely, I find the country
very diverting. Don't you agree, Darcy?
:23:39
I find it perfectly adequate.
:23:41
Even if society
is a little less varied than in town.
:23:44
Less varied? Not at all.
:23:46
We dine with four and 20 families
of all shapes and sizes.
:23:50
Sir William Lucas, for instance,
is a very agreeable man.
:23:55
And a good deal less self-important
than some people half his rank.
:23:59
Mr Bingley,
is it true you will hold a ball here?
:24:02
A ball?
:24:04
It would be an excellent way to meet new
friends. You could invite the militia.
:24:09
- Oh, do hold a ball!
- Kitty!
:24:11
When your sister recovers,
you shall name the day.
:24:14
I think a ball is an irrational way
to gain new acquaintance.
:24:18
It would be better if conversation,
not dancing, were the order of the day.
:24:22
Indeed, much more rational,
but rather less like a ball.
:24:26
Thank you, Mary.
:24:29
What a fine imposing place to be sure,
is it not, my dears?
:24:33
There's no house
to equal it in the county.
:24:37
- Mr Darcy.
- Miss Bennet.
:24:38
- There she is.
- I don't know how to thank you.
:24:41
You're welcome any time
you feel the least bit poorly.
:24:44
Thank you for your stimulating company.
Most instructive.
:24:47
Not at all. The pleasure is all mine.
:24:53
- Mr Darcy.
- Miss Elizabeth.
