However little Mr. Darcy might have liked such an address, he

contented himself with coolly replying, that he perceived no

other alteration than her being rather tanned,--no miraculous

could see any beauty in her. Her face is too thin; her complexion

has no brilliancy; and her features are not at all handsome. Her

nose wants character; there is nothing marked in its lines. Her

teeth are tolerable, but not out of the common way; and as for

her eyes, which have sometimes been called so fine, I never could

perceive anything extraordinary in them. They have a sharp,

shrewish look, which I do not like at all; and in her air

altogether, there is a self-sufficiency without fashion, which is

intolerable."
