"To Jane herself," she exclaimed, "there could be no possibility of objection. All loveliness and goodness as she is! Her understanding excellent, her mind improved, and her manners captivating. Neither could any thing be urged against my father, who, though with some peculiarities, has abilities which Mr. Darcy himself need not disdain, and respectability which he will probably never reach." When she thought of her mother, indeed, her confidence gave way a little, but she would not allow that any objections there had material weight with Mr. Darcy, whose pride, she was convinced, would receive a deeper wound from the want of importance in his friend's connections, than from their want of sense; and she was quite decided at last, that he had been partly governed by this worst kind of pride, and partly by the wish of retaining Mr. Bingley for his sister.
她想到这里,不禁大声嚷了起来:“至于吉英本身,根本就不可能有什么缺陷,她真是太可爱太善良了──她见解高,修养好,风度又动人,我父亲也没有什么可指摘的,他虽然有些怪癖,可是他的能力是达西先生所不能藐视的,说到他的品德,达西先生也许永远赶不上,”当然,当她想到她母亲的时候,她的信心不免稍有动摇;可是她不相信那方面的弱点对达西先生会有什么大不了的影响。最伤害他自尊心莫过于让他的朋友跟门户低微的人家结亲,至于跟没有见识的人家结亲,他倒不会过分计较。她最后完全弄明白了;达西一方面是被这种最恶劣的傲慢心理支配着,另方面是为了想要把彬格莱先生配给他自己的妹妹。
