Jane
had
sent
Caroline
an
early
answer
to
her
letter
,
and
was
counting
the
days
till
she
might
reasonably
hope
to
hear
again
.
The
promised
letter
of
thanks
from
Mr.
Collins
arrived
on
Tuesday
,
addressed
to
their
father
,
and
written
with
all
the
solemnity
of
gratitude
which
a
twelvemonth
's
abode
in
the
family
might
have
prompted
.
After
discharging
his
conscience
on
that
head
,
he
proceeded
to
inform
them
,
with
many
rapturous
expressions
,
of
his
happiness
in
having
obtained
the
affection
of
their
amiable
neighbour
,
Miss
Lucas
,
and
then
explained
that
it
was
merely
with
the
view
of
enjoying
her
society
that
he
had
been
so
ready
to
close
with
their
kind
wish
of
seeing
him
again
at
Longbourn
,
whither
he
hoped
to
be
able
to
return
on
Monday
fortnight
;
for
Lady
Catherine
,
he
added
,
so
heartily
approved
his
marriage
,
that
she
wished
it
to
take
place
as
soon
as
possible
,
which
he
trusted
would
be
an
unanswerable
argument
with
his
amiable
Charlotte
to
name
an
early
day
for
making
him
the
happiest
of
men
.
Mr.
Collins
's
return
into
Hertfordshire
was
no
longer
a
matter
of
pleasure
to
Mrs.
Bennet
.
On
the
contrary
,
she
was
as
much
disposed
to
complain
of
it
as
her
husband
.
It
was
very
strange
that
he
should
come
to
Longbourn
instead
of
to
Lucas
Lodge
;
it
was
also
very
inconvenient
and
exceedingly
troublesome
.
She
hated
having
visitors
in
the
house
while
her
health
was
so
indifferent
,
and
lovers
were
of
all
people
the
most
disagreeable
.
Such
were
the
gentle
murmurs
of
Mrs.
Bennet
,
and
they
gave
way
only
to
the
greater
distress
of
Mr.
Bingley
's
continued
absence
.
Neither
Jane
nor
Elizabeth
were
comfortable
on
this
subject
.
Day
after
day
passed
away
without
bringing
any
other
tidings
of
him
than
the
report
which
shortly
prevailed
in
Meryton
of
his
coming
no
more
to
Netherfield
the
whole
winter
;
a
report
which
highly
incensed
Mrs.
Bennet
,
and
which
she
never
failed
to
contradict
as
a
most
scandalous
falsehood
.
Even
Elizabeth
began
to
fear
--
not
that
Bingley
was
indifferent
--
but
that
his
sisters
would
be
successful
in
keeping
him
away
.
Unwilling
as
she
was
to
admit
an
idea
so
destructive
of
Jane
's
happiness
,
and
so
dishonorable
to
the
stability
of
her
lover
,
she
could
not
prevent
its
frequently
occurring
.
The
united
efforts
of
his
two
unfeeling
sisters
and
of
his
overpowering
friend
,
assisted
by
the
attractions
of
Miss
Darcy
and
the
amusements
of
London
might
be
too
much
,
she
feared
,
for
the
strength
of
his
attachment
.
As
for
Jane
,
her
anxiety
under
this
suspense
was
,
of
course
,
more
painful
than
Elizabeth
's
,
but
whatever
she
felt
she
was
desirous
of
concealing
,
and
between
herself
and
Elizabeth
,
therefore
,
the
subject
was
never
alluded
to
.
But
as
no
such
delicacy
restrained
her
mother
,
an
hour
seldom
passed
in
which
she
did
not
talk
of
Bingley
,
express
her
impatience
for
his
arrival
,
or
even
require
Jane
to
confess
that
if
he
did
not
come
back
she
would
think
herself
very
ill
used
.
It
needed
all
Jane
's
steady
mildness
to
bear
these
attacks
with
tolerable
tranquillity
.
Mr.
Collins
returned
most
punctually
on
Monday
fortnight
,
but
his
reception
at
Longbourn
was
not
quite
so
gracious
as
it
had
been
on
his
first
introduction
.
He
was
too
happy
,
however
,
to
need
much
attention
;
and
luckily
for
the
others
,
the
business
of
love-making
relieved
them
from
a
great
deal
of
his
company
.
The
chief
of
every
day
was
spent
by
him
at
Lucas
Lodge
,
and
he
sometimes
returned
to
Longbourn
only
in
time
to
make
an
apology
for
his
absence
before
the
family
went
to
bed
.
Mrs.
Bennet
was
really
in
a
most
pitiable
state
.
The
very
mention
of
anything
concerning
the
match
threw
her
into
an
agony
of
ill-humour
,
and
wherever
she
went
she
was
sure
of
hearing
it
talked
of
.
The
sight
of
Miss
Lucas
was
odious
to
her
.
As
her
successor
in
that
house
,
she
regarded
her
with
jealous
abhorrence
.
Whenever
Charlotte
came
to
see
them
,
she
concluded
her
to
be
anticipating
the
hour
of
possession
;
and
whenever
she
spoke
in
a
low
voice
to
Mr.
Collins
,
was
convinced
that
they
were
talking
of
the
Longbourn
estate
,
and
resolving
to
turn
herself
and
her
daughters
out
of
the
house
,
as
soon
as
Mr.
Bennet
were
dead
.
She
complained
bitterly
of
all
this
to
her
husband
.
"
Indeed
,
Mr.
Bennet
,
"
said
she
,
"
it
is
very
hard
to
think
that
Charlotte
Lucas
should
ever
be
mistress
of
this
house
,
that
I
should
be
forced
to
make
way
for
her
,
and
live
to
see
her
take
her
place
in
it
!
"
"
My
dear
,
do
not
give
way
to
such
gloomy
thoughts
.
Let
us
hope
for
better
things
.
Let
us
flatter
ourselves
that
I
may
be
the
survivor
.
"
