§ Chapter 44 Pride and Prejudice

Miss Darcy and her brother appeared, and this formidable introduction took place. With astonishment did Elizabeth see that her new acquaintance was at least as much embarrassed as herself.

She found it difficult to obtain even a word from her beyond a monosyllable.
