Added: 2026-05-16

[00:00:00]Dear Miss Elizabeth, I single you out as the companion of my future life. And now nothing remains but for me to assure you in the most animated language of the violence of my affection.

[00:00:08]>> Mr. Collins, I am honored by your proposal that I regret that I must decline it. You could not make me happy, and I'm convinced I'm the last woman in the world who could make you happy.

[00:00:16]>> I must conclude that you simply seek to increase my love by suspense.

[00:00:19]>> Sir, >> according to the usual practice of elegant female.

[00:00:22]>> Sir, I am not the sort of female to torment a respectable man. Please understand me. I cannot accept you.

[00:00:30]YOU WOULD COME and make Lizzy marry Mr. Collins. Mr. Collins has proposed to Lizzy. But you vow she will not have him. And now the day.

[00:00:37]>> Tell her you insist upon the marish.

[00:00:39]>> I can't.

[00:00:40]>> Go back now and say you've changed your mind.

[00:00:42]>> No. Think of your family.

[00:00:43]>> You cannot make me.

[00:00:44]>> Mr. Bennett, say something.

[00:00:46]>> Your mother insists on you marrying Mr. Collins.

[00:00:49]>> Yes.

[00:00:49]>> Lizzy, from this day onward, you must be a stranger to one of your parents.

[00:00:52]>> I will maintain you when your father is dead.

[00:00:54]>> Your mother will never see you again if you do not marry Mr. Collins. I will never see you again if you do.
