Mrs. Bennet, for instance, is extremely proud when it comes to her daughters marriages of mercenary advantage. She is so concerned that her neighbors have a high opinion of her that her own vanity will not even allow her to think of her daughters love and happiness.

Mrs. Bennet was so upset when her daughter refused Mr. Collins offer that she would not speak to her for passing up such an opportunity. .....

that they are going to stay there for a while, and need to hunt.

filled with "beautiful stuff and poetry"(111). He even appraises the chairs,
noting they are "nice split-bottom chairs, and perfectly sound, too-not

Grangerford "was a gentleman all over; and so was his family"(116). The
Colonel was kind, well-mannered, quiet and far from frivolish. E .....

knowing the captain. It is also se .....
