"Yes, Miss Elizabeth, you will have the honour of seeing Lady Catherine de Bourgh on the ensuing Sunday at church, and I need not say you will be delighted with her. She is all affability and condescension, and I doubt not but you will be honoured with some portion of her notice when service is over. I have scarcely any hesitation in saying that she will include you and my sister Maria in every invitation with which she honours us during your stay here. Her behaviour to my dear Charlotte is charming. We dine at Rosings twice every week, and are never allowed to walk home. Her ladyship's carriage is regularly ordered for us. I should say, one of her ladyship's carriages, for she has several."
“正是,伊丽莎白小姐,星期日晚上你就可以有荣幸在教学里见到咖苔琳·德·包尔夫人,你一定会喜欢她的。她为人极其谦和,丝毫没有架子,我相信那天做完礼拜之后,你就会很荣幸地受到她的注目。我可以毫无犹豫地说,只要你待在这儿,每逢她赏脸请我们作客的时候,总少不了要请你和我的小姨子玛丽亚。她对待我亲爱的夏绿蒂真是好极了。我们每星期去罗新斯吃两次饭,她老人家从来没有哪一次让我们步行回家,总是打发自己的马车送我们──我应该说,是打发她老人家的某一部马车,因为她有好几部车子呢。”
"Lady Catherine is a very respectable, sensible woman indeed," added Charlotte, "and a most attentive neighbour."
