PRIDE AND
PREJUDICE
VOLUME I
CHAPTER I
T is a truth universally acknowledged； that a single man in
possession of a good fortune； must be in want of a wife。
I However little known the feelings or views of such a man
may be on his first entering a neighbourhood； this truth is so well
fixed in the minds of the surrounding families； that he is
considered as the rightful property of some one or other of their
daughters。
‘My dear Mr Bennet；’ said his lady to him one day； ‘have you
heard that Netherfield Park is let at last？’
Mr。 Bennet replied that he had not。
‘But it is；’ returned she； ‘for Mrs。 Long has just been here； and
she told me all about it。’
Mr。 Bennet made no answer。
‘Do not you want to know who has taken it？’ cried his wife
impatiently。
‘You want to tell me； and I have no objection to hearing it。’

Mr。 Morris immediately； that he is to take possession before
Michaelmas； and some of his servants are to be in the house by the
end of next week。’
‘What is his name？’
‘Bingley。’
‘Is he married or single？’
‘Oh！ single； my dear； to be sure！ A single man of large fortune；
four or five thousand a year。 What a fine thing for our girls！’
‘How so？ how can it affect them？’
‘My dear Mr。 Bennet；’ replied his wife； ‘how can you be so
tiresome！ You must know that I am thinking of his marrying one of
them。’
‘Is that his design in settling here？’
‘Design！ nonsense； how can you talk so！ But it is very likely that
he may fall in love with one of them； and therefore you must visit
him as soon as he comes。’
‘I see no occasion for that。 You and the girls may go； or you may
send them by themselves； which perhaps will be still better； for as
you are as handsome as any of them； Mr。 Bingley might like you
the best of the party。’
‘My dea
