:25:07
And then there was one
with great long lashes, like a cow.
:25:12
Ask Mrs Hill
to order us a sirloin, Betsy.
:25:15
Just the one, mind.
We're not made of money.
:25:21
I hope, my dear,
you've ordered a good dinner today.
:25:25
I've reason to expect
an addition to our family party.
:25:28
His name's Mr Collins,
the dreaded cousin.
:25:31
- Who is to inherit?
- Everything.
:25:34
Even my piano stool
belongs to Mr Collins.
:25:37
When?
:25:38
He may turn us out of the house
as soon as he pleases.
:25:41
The estate passes directly to him
and not to us poor females.
:25:49
Mr Collins, at your service.
:26:00
What a superbly featured room
and what excellent potatoes.
:26:05
It's many years since
I've had such an exemplary vegetable.
:26:09
To which fair cousin should I compliment
the excellence of the cooking?
:26:14
We are perfectly able to keep a cook.
:26:16
Excellent.
:26:18
I'm very pleased
the estate can afford such a living.
:26:25
I'm honoured to have as my patroness
Lady Catherine de Bourgh.
:26:28
You've heard of her, I presume?
:26:31
My small rectory abuts her estate,
:26:35
Rosings Park,
and she often condescends
:26:38
to drive by my humble dwelling
in her little phaeton and ponies.
:26:43
Does she have any family?
:26:45
One daughter, the heiress of Rosings
and very extensive property.
:26:50
I've often observed to Lady Catherine
:26:52
that her daughter
seemed born to be a duchess,
:26:55
for she has all the superior graces
of elevated rank.
