1"Indeed I had. What will you think of my vanity? I believed you to be wishing, expecting my addresses." "My manners must
2have been in fault, but not intentionally, I assure you. I never meant to deceive you, but my spirits might often lead
3me wrong. How you must have hated me after that evening!" "Hate you! I was angry, perhaps, at first, but my anger soon
4began to take a proper direction." "I am almost afraid of asking what you thought of me when we met at Pemberley. You
5blamed me for coming?" "No, indeed, I felt nothing but surprise." "Your surprise could not be greater than mine in being
6noticed by you. My conscience told me that I deserved no extraordinary politeness, and I confess that I did not expect
7to receive more than my due." "My object then," replied Darcy, "was to show you, by every civility in my power, that I
8was not so mean as to resent the past; and I hoped to obtain your forgiveness, to lessen your ill opinion, by letting
9you see that your reproofs had been attended to. How soon any other wishes introduced themselves, I can hardly tell, but
10I believe in about half an hour after I had seen you." He then told her of Georgiana's delight in her acquaintance, and
11of her disappointment at its sudden interruption; which naturally leading to the cause of that interruption, she soon
12learnt that his resolution of following her from Derbyshire in quest of her sister had been formed before he quitted the
13inn, and that his gravity and thoughtfulness there had arisen from no other struggles than what such a purpose must
14comprehend. She expressed her gratitude again, but it was too painful a subject to each to be dwelt on farther. After
15walking several miles in a leisurely manner, and too busy to know anything about it, they found at last, on examining
16their watches, that it was time to be at home. "What could have become of Mr. Bingley and Jane?" was a wonder which
17introduced the discussion of their affairs. Darcy was delighted with their engagement; his friend had given him the
18earliest information of it. "I must ask whether you were surprised?" said Elizabeth. "Not at all. When I went away, I
19felt that it would soon happen." "That is to say, you had given your permission. I guessed as much." And though he
20exclaimed at the term, she found that it had been pretty much the case. "On the evening before my going to London," said
21he, "I made a confession to him, which I believe I ought to have made long ago. I told him of all that had occurred to
22make my former interference in his affairs absurd and impertinent. His surprise was great. He had never had the
23slightest suspicion. I told him, moreover, that I believed myself mistaken in supposing, as I had done, that your sister
24was indifferent to him; and as I could easily perceive that his attachment to her was unabated, I felt no doubt of their
25happiness together." Elizabeth could not help smiling at his easy manner of directing his friend. "Did you speak from
26your own observation," said she, "when you told him that my sister loved him, or merely from my information last
27spring?" "From the former. I had narrowly observed her, during the two visits which I had lately made her here; and I
28was convinced of her affection." "And your assurance of it, I suppose, carried immediate conviction to him." "It did.
29Bingley is most unaffectedly modest. His diffidence had prevented his depending on his own judgment in so anxious a
30case, but his reliance on mine made everything easy. I was obliged to confess one thing, which for a time, and not
31unjustly, offended him. I could not allow myself to conceal that your sister had been in town three months last winter,
32that I had known it, and purposely kept it from him. He was angry. But his anger, I am persuaded, lasted no longer than
33he remained in any doubt of your sister's sentiments. He has heartily forgiven me now." Elizabeth longed to observe that
34Mr. Bingley had been a most delightful friend; so easily guided that his worth was invaluable; but she checked herself.
35She remembered that he had yet to learn to be laughed at, and it was rather too early to begin. In anticipating the
36happiness of Bingley, which of course was to be inferior only to his own, he continued the conversation till they
37reached the house. In the hall they parted. [Illustration: "Unable to utter a syllable" [Copyright 1894 by George
38Allen.]] CHAPTER LIX. [Illustration] "My dear Lizzy, where can you have been walking to?" was a question which Elizabeth
39received from Jane as soon as she entered the room, and from all the others when they sat down to table. She had only to
40say in reply, that they had wandered about till she was beyond her own knowledge. She coloured as she spoke; but neither
41that, nor anything else, awakened a suspicion of the truth. The evening passed quietly, unmarked by anything
42extraordinary. The acknowledged lovers talked and laughed; the unacknowledged were silent. Darcy was not of a
43disposition in which happiness overflows in mirth; and Elizabeth, agitated and confused, rather knew that she was happy
44than felt herself to be so; for, besides the immediate embarrassment, there were other evils before her. She anticipated
45what would be felt in the family when her situation became known: she was aware that no one liked him but Jane; and even
46feared that with the others it was a dislike which not all his fortune and consequence might do away. At night she
47opened her heart to Jane. Though suspicion was very far from Miss Bennet's general habits, she was absolutely
48incredulous here. "You are joking, Lizzy. This cannot be! Engaged to Mr. Darcy! No, no, you shall not deceive me: I know
49it to be impossible." "This is a wretched beginning, indeed! My sole dependence was on you; and I am sure nobody else
50will believe me, if you do not. Yet, indeed, I am in earnest. I speak nothing but the truth. He still loves me, and we
51are engaged." Jane looked at her doubtingly. "Oh, Lizzy! it cannot be. I know how much you dislike him." "You know
52nothing of the matter. That is all to be forgot. Perhaps I did not always love him so well as I do now; but in such
53cases as these a good memory is unpardonable. This is the last time I shall ever remember it myself." Miss Bennet still
54looked all amazement. Elizabeth again, and more seriously, assured her of its truth. "Good heaven! can it be really so?
55Yet now I must believe you," cried Jane. "My dear, dear Lizzy, I would, I do congratulate you; but are you
56certain--forgive the question--are you quite certain that you can be happy with him?" "There can be no doubt of that. It
57is settled between us already that we are to be the happiest couple in the world. But are you pleased, Jane? Shall you
58like to have such a brother?" "Very, very much. Nothing could give either Bingley or myself more delight. But we
59considered it, we talked of it as impossible. And do you really love him quite well enough? Oh, Lizzy! do anything
60rather than marry without affection. Are you quite sure that you feel what you ought to do?" "Oh, yes! You will only
61think I feel more than I ought to do when I tell you all." "What do you mean?" "Why, I must confess that I love him
62better than I do Bingley. I am afraid you will be angry." "My dearest sister, now be, be serious. I want to talk very
63seriously. Let me know everything that I am to know without delay. Will you tell me how long you have loved him?" "It
64has been coming on so gradually, that I hardly know when it began; but I believe I must date it from my first seeing his
65beautiful grounds at Pemberley." Another entreaty that she would be serious, however, produced the desired effect; and
66she soon satisfied Jane by her solemn assurances of attachment. When convinced on that article, Miss Bennet had nothing
67further to wish. "Now I am quite happy," said she, "for you will be as happy as myself. I always had a value for him.
68Were it for nothing but his love of you, I must always have esteemed him; but now, as Bingley's friend and your husband,
69there can be only Bingley and yourself more dear to me. But, Lizzy, you have been very sly, very reserved with me. How
70little did you tell me of what passed at Pemberley and Lambton! I owe all that I know of it to another, not to you."
