:52:03
Go to our aunt and uncle's in London,
:52:06
let it be known you are there
and I am sure he will come to you.
:52:18
Give my love to my sister
and try not to be a burden, dear.
:52:23
Poor Jane.
:52:25
Still, a girl likes to be
crossed in love now and then.
:52:30
It gives her something to think of
:52:32
and a sort of distinction
amongst her companions.
:52:35
- I'm sure that will cheer her up, Papa.
- It's your turn now, Lizzie.
:52:39
You've turned down Collins.
:52:41
You're free to go off
and be jilted yourself.
:52:45
What about Mr Wickham?
:52:47
He's a pleasant fellow
and he'd do the job credibly.
:52:50
- Father...
- And you have an affectionate mother
:52:54
who would make the most of it.
:53:16
- Charlotte!
- My dear Lizzie.
:53:18
I've come her to tell you the news.
Mr Collins and I are... engaged.
:53:23
- Engaged?
- Yes.
:53:30
- To be married?
- What other kind of engaged is there?
:53:36
For heaven's sake, Lizzie,
don't look at me like that.
:53:40
I should be
as happy with him as any other.
:53:43
- But he's ridiculous.
- Oh, hush.
:53:45
Not all of us can afford to be romantic.
:53:49
I've been offered
a comfortable home and protection.
:53:53
There's a lot to be thankful for.
:53:55
I'm 27 years old.
I've no money and no prospects.
