Quote Chapter 12   Written by Carolyn (5/8/2007 12:10 a.m.)
Are you new?

They were not welcomed home very cordially by their mother.

Poor Mrs. Bennet, to have her plans are ruined by Elizabeth, no wonder she is not feeling very cordial.

Mrs. Bennet had calculated on her daughters remaining at Netherfield till the following Tuesday, which would exactly finish Jane's week, could not bring herself to receive them with pleasure before.

Against staying longer, however, Elizabeth was positively resolved.

But then Mrs. Bennet often does not feel cordial to Elizabeth.

Lizzy is not a bit better than the others; and I am sure she is not half so handsome as Jane, nor half so good-humoured as Lydia.-- Chap 1

************

Elizabeth, feeling really anxious, was determined to go to her, though the carriage was not to be had; and as she was no horsewoman, walking was her only alternative. She declared her resolution.

"How can you be so silly," cried her mother, "as to think of such a thing, in all this dirt! You will not be fit to be seen when you get there." --Chap 7

************
"Lizzy," cried her mother, "remember where you are, and do not run on in the wild manner that you are suffered to do at home." -- Chap 9
