"My dear Lizzy, do not give way to such feelings as these. They

will ruin your happiness. You do not make allowance enough for

difference of situation and temper. Consider Mr. Collins's

respectability, and Charlotte's prudent, steady character.

is a most eligible match; and be ready to believe, for

everybody's sake, that she may feel something like regard and

esteem for our cousin."
