...which sounded to me like Catherine saying a particular characteristic of Henry's being very good in "a parson"?? I heard it as "parson" rather than "person" because "person" is such a 1990s word, and I would expect her to have said "man" instead.

I think it's "person" in the movie. Catherine does pronounce it somewhat like "parson", though. I also think it's clear in the film that she hesitates at the word - almost saying "man" - because she doesn't want it to seem like she's eyeing him as a prospective mate.
