her, and must fret no longer.’
‘But, my dear sister, can I be happy, even supposing the
best, in accepting a man whose sisters and friends are all
wishing him to marry elsewhere?’
‘You must decide for yourself,’ said Elizabeth; ‘and
if, upon mature deliberation, you find that the misery of
disobliging his two sisters is more than equivalent to the
happiness of being his wife, I advise you by all means to
refuse him.’
‘How can you talk so?’ said Jane, faintly smiling. ‘You
must know that though I should be exceedingly grieved at
their disapprobation, I could not hesitate.’
‘I did not think you would; and that being the case, I can-
not consider your situation with much compassion.’
‘But if he returns no more this winter, my choice will nev-
er be required. A thousand things may arise in six months!’
The idea of his returning no more Elizabeth treated with
the utmost contempt. It appeared to her merely the sugges-
tion of Caroline’s interested wishes, and she could not for
a moment suppose that those wishes, however openly or
artfully spoken, could influence a young man so totally in-
dependent of everyone.
She represented to her sister as forcibly as possible what
she felt on the subject, and had soon the pleasure of seeing
its happy effect. Jane’s temper was not desponding, and she
was gradually led to hope, though the diffidence of affection
sometimes overcame the hope, that Bingley would return
to Netherfield and answer every wish of her heart.
They agreed that Mrs. Bennet should only hear of the de-
Pride and Prejudice1��
parture of the family, without being alarmed on the score
of the gentleman’s conduct; but even this partial communi-
cation gave her a great deal of concern, and she bewailed it
as exceedingly unlucky that the ladies should happen to go
away just as they were all getting so intimate together. After
lamenting it, however, at some length, she had the consola-
tion that Mr. Bingley would be soon down again and soon
dining at Longbourn, and the conclusion of all was the
comfortable declaration, that though he had been invited
only to a family dinner, she would take care to have two
full courses.

Chapter 22
The Bennets were engaged to dine with the Lucases and again during the chief of the day was Miss Lucas so kind
as to listen to Mr. Collins. Elizabeth took an opportunity of
thanking her. ‘It keeps him in good humour,’ said she, ‘and
I am more obliged to you than I can express.’ Charlotte as-
sured her friend of her satisfaction in being useful, and that
it amply repaid her for the little sacrifice of her time. This
was very amiable, but Charlotte’s kindness extended farther
than Elizabeth had any conception of; its object was noth-
ing else than to secure her from any return of Mr. Collins’s
addresses, by engaging them towards herself. Such was
Miss Lucas’s scheme; and appearances were so favourable,
that.

Chapter 9
Elizabeth passed the chief of the night in her sister’s room, and in the morning had the pleasure of being able to
send a tolerable answer to the inquiries which she very early
received from Mr. Bingley by a housemaid, and some time
afterwards from the two elegant ladies who waited on his
sisters. In spite of this amendment, however, she request-
ed to have a note sent to Longbourn, desiring her mother
to visit Jane, and form her own judgement of her situation.
The note was immediately dispatched, and its contents as
quickly complied with. Mrs. Bennet, accompanied by her
two youngest girls, reached Netherfield soon after the fam-
ily breakfast.
Had she found Jane in any apparent danger, Mrs. Ben-
net would have been very miserable; but being satisfied on
seeing her that her illness was not alarming, she had no
wish of her recovering immediately, as her restoration to
health would probably remove her from Netherfield. She
would not listen, therefore, to her daughter’s proposal of be-
ing carried home; neither did the apothecary, who arrived
about the same time, think it at all advisable. After sitting
a little while with Jane, on Miss Bingley’s appearance and
invitation, the mother and three daughter all attended her
into the breakfast parlour. Bingley met them with hopes
that Mrs. Bennet had not found Miss Bennet worse than
�1Free eBooks at Planet eBook.com
she expected.
‘Indeed I have, sir,’ was her answer. ‘She is a great deal too
ill to be moved. Mr. Jones says we must not think of moving
her. We must trespass a little longer on your kindness.’
‘Removed!’ cried Bingley. ‘It must not be thought of. My
sister, I am sure, will not hear of her removal.’
‘You may depend upon it, Madam,’ said Miss Bingley,
with cold civility, ‘that Miss Bennet will receive every pos-
sible attention while she remains with us.’
Mrs. Bennet was profuse in her acknowledgments.
‘I am sure,’ she added, ‘if it was not for such good friends
I do not know what would become of her, for she is very ill
indeed, and suffers a vast deal, though with the greatest pa-
tience in the world, which is always the way with her, for she
has, without exception, the sweetest temper I have ever met
with. I often tell my other girls they are nothing to HER.
You have a sweet room here, Mr. Bingley, and a charming
prospect over the gravel walk. I do not know a place in the
country that is equal to Netherfield. You will not think of
quitting it in a hurry, I hope, though you have but a short
lease.’
‘Whatever I do is done in a hurry,’ replied he; ‘and there-
fore if I should resolve to quit Netherfield, I should probably
be off in five minutes. At present, however, I consider myself
as quite fixed here.’
‘That is exactly what I should have supposed of you,’ said
Elizabeth.
‘You begin to comprehend me, do you?’ cried he, turning

20 Other Conditions That May Be a Focus of Clinical AttentionV-c.docxRAJU852744
20 Other Conditions That May Be a Focus of Clinical Attention
V-codes and z-codes
V-codes and Z-codes are conditions that may be the focus of clinical attention but are not considered mental disorders. They correspond to International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification ICD-9-CM (V-codes) and International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification ICD-10-CM (Z-codes that become effective in 2015. In most instances, third-party payers do not cover charges for delivering services to an individual if the diagnosis is solely a V- or Z-code alone. If the V- or Z-code is not the primary diagnosis then it should be documented following the primary diagnosis. In addition, when writing the psychosocial assessment any psychosocial and cultural factors that might impact the client's diagnosis should be documented. The psychosocial stressors reflected in these diagnoses are widespread across all classes and cultures and have been shown to impact all aspects of an individual's life from the physical and psychological to the financial. Furthermore, these conditions have been shown to significantly impact the diagnosis and outcome for a multitude of mental and medical disorders. V- and Z-codes are grouped into numerous categories including: relational problems, problems related to abuse/neglect, educational and occupational problems, housing and economic problems, problems related to the social environment, problems related to the legal system, other counseling services, other psychosocial, personal and environmental problems, and problems of personal history (APA, 2013).
Broadly speaking, the category “Relational Problems” describes interactional problems between family members (e.g., parent/caregiver-child) or partners that result in significant impairment of family functioning or development of symptoms in the distressed individual, spouses, siblings, or other family members. Relational problems are broken down into two categories, Problems Related to Family Upbringing and Other Problems Related to Primary Support Group. For example, in the first category a Parent-Child Relational Problem involves interactional problems between one or both parents and a child that lead to dysfunction in behavioral (e.g., inadequate protection, overprotection), cognitive (e.g., antagonism toward or blaming of the other) or affective (e.g., feeling sad and angry) realms. Here, the critical factor is the quality of the parent-child relationship or when the dysfunction in this relationship is impacting the course and outcome of a psychological or medical condition. Other examples include Sibling Relational Problem, Upbringing Away from Parents, and Child Affected by Parental Relationship Distress. Similarly, family relationships and interactional patterns leading to problems related to primary support group include Partner Relational Problem, Disruption of Family by Separation/Divorce, High Expressed Emotion Level with.

22-6 | Reporting the Plight of Depression Families
MARTHA GELLHORN, Field Report to Harry Hopkins (1934)
1. From Martha Gellhorn to Harry Hopkins, Report, Gaston County, North Carolina, November 11, 1934, Franklin D. Roosevelt Library, Harry Hopkins Papers, Box 66. Online transcript available at http://newdeal.feri.org/hopkins/hop08.htm.
Journalist and novelist Martha Gellhorn’s heartrending field report describing impoverished Gastonia, North Carolina, families vividly captures the desperate hope of depression-era families. Hired by Harry Hopkins, Franklin Roosevelt’s point man for federal relief efforts, Gellhorn detailed the enormous challenge facing the administration. Compounding the epic humanitarian crisis she encountered was the political opposition, which she singled out as one among many obstacles hampering relief efforts.
All during this trip [to North Carolina] I have been thinking to myself about that curious phrase “red menace,” and wondering where said menace hid itself. Every house I visited — mill worker or unemployed — had a picture of the President. These ranged from newspaper clippings (in destitute homes) to large colored prints, framed in gilt cardboard. The portrait holds the place of honour over the mantel. . . . He is at once God and their intimate friend; he knows them all by name, knows their little town and mill, their little lives and problems. And, though everything else fails, he is there, and will not let them down.
I have been seeing people who, according to almost any standard, have practically nothing in life and practically nothing to look forward to or hope for. But there is hope; confidence, something intangible and real: “the president isn’t going to forget us.”
Let me cite cases: I went to see a woman with five children who was living on relief ($3.40 a week). Her picture of the President was a small one, and she told me her oldest daughter had been married some months ago and had cried for the big, coloured picture as a wedding present. The children have no shoes and that woman is terrified of the coming cold as if it were a definite physical entity. There is practically no furniture left in the home, and you can imagine what and how they eat. But she said, suddenly brightening, “I’d give my heart to see the President. I know he means to do everything he can for us; but they make it hard for him; they won’t let him.” I note this case as something special; because here the faith was coupled with a feeling (entirely sympathetic) that the President was not entirely omnipotent.
I have been seeing mill workers; and in every mill when possible, the local Union president. There has been widespread discrimination in the south; and many mills haven’t re-opened since the strike. Those open often run on such curtailment that workers are getting from 2 to 3 days work a week. The price of food has risen (especially the kind of food they eat: fat-back bacon, flour, meal, sorghum) as high as 100%. It is getting cold;.

Abstract - The Vietnamese government have plan to develop the
wind farms with the expected capacity of 6 GW by 2030. With the
high penetration of wind power into power system, wind power
forecasting is essentially needed for a power generation
balancing in power system operation and electricity market.
However, such a tool is currently not available in Vietnamese
wind farms as well as electricity market. Therefore, a short-term
wind power forecasting tool for 24 hours has been created to fill
in this gap, using artificial neural network technique. The neural
network has been trained with past data recorded from 2015 to
2017 at Tuy Phong wind farm in Binh Thuan province of Viet
Nam. It has been tested for wind power prediction with the input
data from hourly weather forecast for the same wind farm. The
tool can be used for short-term wind power forecasting in
Vietnamese power system in a foreseeable future.
Keywords: power system; wind farm; wind power forecasting;
neural network; electricity market.
I. NECESITY OF WIND POWER FORECASTING
Today, the integration of wind power into the existing
grid is a big issue in power system operation. For the system
operators, power generation curve of wind turbines is a
necessary information in the power sources balancing. From
the dispatchers’ point of view, wind power forecast errors
will impact the system net imbalances when the share of
wind power increases, and more accurate forecasts mean less
regulating capacity will be activated from the real time
electricity market [1]. In the deregulated market, day-ahead
electricity spot prices are also affected by day-ahead wind
power forecasting [2]. Wind power forecasting is also
essential in reducing the power curtailment, supporting the
ancillary service. However, due to uncertainty of wind speed
and weather factors, the wind power is not easy to predict.
In recent years, many wind power forecasting methods
have been proposed. In [3], a review of different approaches
for short-term wind power forecasting has been introduced,
including statistical and physical methods with different
models such as WPMS, WPPT, Prediktor, Zephyr, WPFS,
ANEMOS, ARMINES, Ewind, Sipreolico. In [4], [5], the
methods, models of wind power forecasting and its impact on

discussed topics lately and a reason for great concern among
organizations. The EU General Data Protection Regulation
(GDPR) is the most important change in data privacy regulation
in 20 years. The regulation will fundamentally reshape the way in
which data is handled across every sector. The organizations had
two years to implement it. As referred by many authors, the
implementation of the regulation has not been an easy task for
companies. The question we aim to answer in this study is how far
the implementation of ISO 27001 standards might represent a
facilitating factor to organizations for an easier compliance with
the regulation. In order to answer this question, several websites
(mostly of consulting companies) were analyzed, and the aspects
considered as facilitating are listed in this paper.
Keywords - regulation (EU) 2016/679; general data protection
regulation; ISO/IEC 27001.
I. INTRODUCTION
In recent years, data protection has become a forefront issue
in cyber security. The issues introduced by recurring
organizational data breaches, social media and the Internet of
Things (IoT) have raised the stakes even further [1, 2]. The EU
GDPR, enforced from May 25 2018, is an attempt to address
such data protection. The GDPR makes for stronger, unified data
protection throughout the EU.
The EU GDPR states that organizations must adopt
appropriate policies, procedures and processes to protect the
personal data they hold.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
/International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 27000 series
is a set of information security standards that provide best-
practice recommendations for information security management
[3].
This international standard for information security, ISO
27001, provides an excellent starting point for achieving the
technical and operational requirements necessary to reduce the
risk of a breach.
Not all data is protected by the GDPR, since it is only
applicable to personal data. This is defined in Article 4 as
follows [4]:
“personal data” means any information relating to an
identified or identifiable natural person (’data subject’); an
identifiable.

Trouble at 3Forks
Introduction: The foreclosure process can differ for deeds
versus mortgages. You will conduct research to determine
these differences since it is not only covered in the real estate
exam, but it is important to know this process in professional
practice.
Scenario: Henri and Lila own a restaurant which the
government has caused to close due to widening the road in
front of their establishment. Since this is the main source of
their income, and has caused Lila and Henri to stop payments
on their mortgage, address the following questions.
Checklist:
Explain the action that Henri and Lila should expect from the
bank regarding their property.
Describe how the banks actions would differ if it was a deed of
trust rather than a mortgage.
Respond in a minimum of 600–850-word essay with additional
title and reference pages using APA format and citation style.

Week 2 Discussion: Hamilton Depression Rating Scale
COLLAPSE
Top of Form
Depression or Major Depressive Disorder is considered as a mental health disorder that negatively impacts how an individual feel, think and behave. Individuals who suffer from depression exhibit feelings of sadness and loss in interest in once enjoyed activities (Parekh. 2017). It can cause different kinds of emotional and physical problems and can minimize an individual’s ability to be functional in their daily routines. Annually, approximately 6.7% of adults are impacted by depression. It is estimated that 16.6% of individuals will experience depression at some time in their life (Parekh. 2017). Depression is said to manifest at any time, but on average, the first manifestation occurs during the late teens to mid-20s. The female population is susceptible to experience depression than the male population. Some research indicated that one-third of the female population would experience a major depressive episode in their lifetime (Parekh. 2017).
Among all the mental disorders, depression is one of the most treatable. It is estimated that between 80-90 % of individuals suffering from depression respond well to treatment and experienced remission of their symptoms (Parekh. 2017). As a mental health professional, prior to deciphering diagnosis and initiating diagnosis, it is paramount to conduct a complete diagnostic evaluation, which includes an interview and, if necessary, a physical examination (Parekh. 2017). Blood tests can be conducted to ascertain that depression is not precipitated by a medical condition like thyroid dysfunction. The evaluation is to identify specific symptoms, medical and family history, cultural factors, and environmental factors to derive a diagnosis and establish a treatment plan (Parekh. 2017). One of the assessment tools for depression is the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale. In this discussion, I will be discussing the psychometric properties of the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale and elaborate on when it is appropriate to utilize this assessment tool with clients, including whether the tool can be utilized to evaluate the efficacy of psychopharmacologic medications.
The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) was introduced in early 1960. It has been considered as a gold standard in depression studies and a preferred scale in the evaluation of depression treatment. It is the most vastly utilized observer-rated depression scale worldwide (Vindbjerg.et.al., 2019). The HDRS was initially created to measure symptoms severity in depressed inpatient; however, the 17-item HAM-D has advanced in over five decades into 11 modified versions that have been administered to various patient populations in an array of psychiatric, medical, and other research settings (Rohan.et.al., 2016). There are two most common versions with either 17 or 21 items and is scored between 0-4 points. Each item assists mental health professionals or c.

Technet Case Study for Virtualization
Technet is a hypothetical business in the storage manufacturing industry. This paper intend to elaborate the server virtualization concept using Microsoft
virtualization software from Windows server 2012R2. Organization’s Preparedness for Virtualization. As of now, the IT system design is a mishmash of old
frameworks that were obtained through various acquisitions of different providers in the storage industry. In any case, these old frameworks are aging and will soon
need to be upgraded. Generally, these old frameworks support applications that have been in service for about 10 years. The IT system situated in one of Technet
branch in Asia for instance comprise of old servers that have been in service for the last 5 years. These old servers were launched to support production and
productivity applications. The expense for permit of these old applications are presently being inspected to check whether they can be dropped and the
information moved to current Technet Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) applications. Consequently, since several IT related components are potential
contender for upgrading, this makes the likelihood of changing over current physical server farms into virtualized computing resources appropriate. Microsoft
Licensing of Virtualized Environments
Datacenter and the Standard edition are the two license version for Windows Server 2012R2 offered by Microsoft. There is likewise a free version called
Hyper-V Server which is an independent system that only contains the Windows hypervisor, a driver model as well as virtualization modules. Every window
version underpins Hyper-V, which is Microsoft's Type-1 hypervisor offering, likewise referred to as a bare-metal installation, and each Hyper-V server is known as a

Sourcing
After 13 years, Kellwood, an American apparel maker, ended its soups!to!nuts IS outsourcing
arrangement with EDS . The primary focus of the original outsourcing contract was to integrate
12 individually acquired units with different systems into one system. Kellwood had been satis-
" ed enough with EDS ’ s performance to renegotiate the contract in 2002 and 2008, even though
at each renegotiation point, Kellwood had considered bringing the IS operations back in house,
or backsourcing. The 2008 contract iteration resulted in a more # exible $105 million contract that
EDS estimated would save Kellwood $2 million in the " rst year and $9 million over the remaining
contract years. But the situation at Kellwood had changed drastically. In 2008, Kellwood had been
purchased by Sun Capital Partners and taken private. The chief operating of" cer (COO), who was
facing a mountain of debt and possibly bankruptcy, wanted to consolidate and bring the operations
back in house to give some order to the current situation and reduce costs. Kellwood was suffering
from a lack of IS standardization as a result of its many acquisitions. The chief information of" cer
(CIO) recognized the importance of IS standardization and costs, but she was concerned that the
transition from outsourcing to insourcing would cause serious disruption to IS service levels and
project deadlines if it went poorly. Kellwood hired a third!party consultant to help it explore the
issues and decided that backsourcing would save money and respond to changes caused by both the
market and internal forces. Kellwood decided to backsource and started the process in late 2009. It
carefully planned for the transition, and the implementation went smoothly. By performing stream-
lined operations in house, it was able to report an impressive $3.6 million savings, or about 17% of
annual IS expenses after the " rst year. 1
The Kellwood case demonstrates a series of decisions made in relation to sourcing. Both the
decision to outsource IS operations and then to bring them back in house were based on a series of
This chapter is organized around decisions in the Sourcing Decision Cycle. The ! rst question
regarding information systems (IS) in the cycle relates to the decision to make (insource) or
buy (outsource) them. This chapter ’ s focus is on issues related to outsourcing whereas issues
related to insourcing are discussed in other chapters of this book. Discussed are the critical
decisions in the Sourcing Decision Cycle: how and where (cloud computing, onshoring,
offshoring). When the choice is offshoring, the next decision is where abroad (farshoring,
nearshoring, or captive centers). Explored next in this chapter is the ! nal decision in the
cycle, keep as is or change in which case the current arrangements are assessed and modi-
! cations are made to the outsourcing arrangem.

– Food nourishes the body by providing energy for
activity
– Digestion begins in the mouth
• Salivary glands provide moisture that allows food to
have taste
• Importance of good mastication
The Digestive System
The Digestive System
– Food is swallowed and then moves through the
pharynx and esophagus
– Peristalsis moves food through the digestive
system
– In the stomach, food is mixed with gastric juices
so it can be absorbed by the small intestine
– Most nutrients are digested in the small intestine
– Digestion process is complete when waste is
eliminated

Factors in Weight Maintenance
– Stable weight occurs when calories eaten equal those
expended for body metabolism and physical exercise
[OLD THINKING]
– Complicated interplay of nutrients, hormones, and
inflammation
• Metabolic rates differ from person to person
• Ghrelin, a hormone, stimulates appetite
• Leptin, a protein, signals satiation and fat storage
• Insulin, a hormone produced in pancreas
– unlocks cells for glucose use for energy
– cues hypothalamus for satiation and decreased appetite
Factors in Weight Maintenance
What is obesity?
– Overeating is not the sole cause of obesity
– Various methods to assess body fat
• Skin-fold technique
• Percentage body fat
• Body mass index (BMI)
– Can also be thought of in terms of social and

Writing a Critical Review (analytical) Essay
2020/2/21 Critical Review #2 - WebCOM™ 2.0
https://smc.grtep.com/index.cfm/smcc/page/2criticalreviews 2/10
1. Every essay that you write for this course must have a clear thesis, placed
(perhaps) somewhere near the end of the introductory paragraph. Simply
stated, a THESIS (or ARGUMENT) expresses, preferably in a single sentence,
the point you want to make about the text that is the subject of your essay. A
THESIS should be an opinion or interpretation of the text, not merely a fact or
observation. The best possible THESIS will answer some speci�c questions
about the text. Very often the THESIS contains an outline of the major points
to be covered in the essay. A possible thesis for an essay on character in
Perry Henzell’s The Harder They Come might read somewhat as follows:
The protagonist of THTC is not a hero in the epic sense of the word, but a
self-centered young man bred of economic oppression and cultural
dependency. The characters in this �lm have no real psychological depth, but
are markers for a society of consumption and momentary glory.
(You might then go on to exemplify from the text and argue in favor or
against this interpretation: your essay need not hold to only one perspective.)
What single, clear QUESTION does the above THESIS attempt to answer?
2. Each essay should be organized into �ve (5) paragraphs, each based on one
of two to four major ideas, which will comprise the BODY of the essay. Each
paragraph must have a topic sentence, often (but not always) towards the
beginning of the paragraph, which clearly states the ARGUMENT or point to
be made in the paragraph. Following the thesis set forth.

her, and must fret no longer.’
‘But, my dear sister, can I be happy, even supposing the
best, in accepting a man whose sisters and friends are all
wishing him to marry elsewhere?’
‘You must decide for yourself,’ said Elizabeth; ‘and
if, upon mature deliberation, you find that the misery of
disobliging his two sisters is more than equivalent to the
happiness of being his wife, I advise you by all means to
refuse him.’
‘How can you talk so?’ said Jane, faintly smiling. ‘You
must know that though I should be exceedingly grieved at
their disapprobation, I could not hesitate.’
‘I did not think you would; and that being the case, I can-
not consider your situation with much compassion.’
‘But if he returns no more this winter, my choice will nev-
er be required. A thousand things may arise in six months!’
The idea of his returning no more Elizabeth treated with
the utmost contempt. It appeared to her merely the sugges-
tion of Caroline’s interested wishes, and she could not for
a moment suppose that those wishes, however openly or
artfully spoken, could influence a young man so totally in-
dependent of everyone.
She represented to her sister as forcibly as possible what
2. she felt on the subject, and had soon the pleasure of seeing
its happy effect. Jane’s temper was not desponding, and she
was gradually led to hope, though the diffidence of affection
sometimes overcame the hope, that Bingley would return
to Netherfield and answer every wish of her heart.
They agreed that Mrs. Bennet should only hear of the de-
Pride and Prejudice1��
parture of the family, without being alarmed on the score
of the gentleman’s conduct; but even this partial communi-
cation gave her a great deal of concern, and she bewailed it
as exceedingly unlucky that the ladies should happen to go
away just as they were all getting so intimate together. After
lamenting it, however, at some length, she had the consola-
tion that Mr. Bingley would be soon down again and soon
dining at Longbourn, and the conclusion of all was the
comfortable declaration, that though he had been invited
only to a family dinner, she would take care to have two
full courses.

Chapter 22
The Bennets were engaged to dine with the Lucases and again
during the chief of the day was Miss Lucas so kind
as to listen to Mr. Collins. Elizabeth took an opportunity of
thanking her. ‘It keeps him in good humour,’ said she, ‘and
I am more obliged to you than I can express.’ Charlotte as-
sured her friend of her satisfaction in being useful, and that
3. it amply repaid her for the little sacrifice of her time. This
was very amiable, but Charlotte’s kindness extended farther
than Elizabeth had any conception of; its object was noth-
ing else than to secure her from any return of Mr. Collins’s
addresses, by engaging them towards herself. Such was
Miss Lucas’s scheme; and appearances were so favourable,
that when they parted at night, she would have felt almost
secure of success if he had not been to leave Hertfordshire
so very soon. But here she did injustice to the fire and in-
dependence of his character, for it led him to escape out of
Longbourn House the next morning with admirable sly-
ness, and hasten to Lucas Lodge to throw himself at her feet.
He was anxious to avoid the notice of his cousins, from a
conviction that if they saw him depart, they could not fail
to conjecture his design, and he was not willing to have the
attempt known till its success might be known likewise; for
though feeling almost secure, and with reason, for Char-
lotte had been tolerably encouraging, he was comparatively
Pride and Prejudice1��
diffident since the adventure of Wednesday. His reception,
however, was of the most flattering kind. Miss Lucas per-
ceived him from an upper window as he walked towards
the house, and instantly set out to meet him accidentally in
the lane. But little had she dared to hope that so much love
and eloquence awaited her there.
In as short a time as Mr. Collins’s long speeches would al-
low, everything was settled between them to the satisfaction
of both; and as they entered the house he earnestly entreat-
ed her to name the day that was to make him the happiest of
men; and though such a solicitation must be waived for the
present, the lady felt no inclination to trifle with his happi-
4. ness. The stupidity with which he was favoured by nature
must guard his courtship from any charm that could make
a woman wish for its continuance; and Miss Lucas, who ac-
cepted him solely from the pure and disinterested desire of
an establishment, cared not how soon that establishment
were gained.
Sir William and Lady Lucas were speedily applied to for
their consent; and it was bestowed with a most joyful alacrity.
Mr. Collins’s present circumstances made it a most eligible
match for their daughter, to whom they could give little for-
tune; and his prospects of future wealth were exceedingly
fair. Lady Lucas began directly to calculate, with more in-
terest than the matter had ever excited before, how many
years longer Mr. Bennet was likely to live; and Sir William
gave it as his decided opinion, that whenever Mr. Collins
should be in possession of the Longbourn estate, it would
be highly expedient that both he and his wife should make

their appearance at St. James’s. The whole family, in short,
were properly overjoyed on the occasion. The younger girls
formed hopes of COMING OUT a year or two sooner than
they might otherwise have done; and the boys were relieved
from their apprehension of Charlotte’s dying an old maid.
Charlotte herself was tolerably composed. She had gained
her point, and had time to consider of it. Her reflections
were in general satisfactory. Mr. Collins, to be sure, was
neither sensible nor agreeable; his society was irksome, and
his attachment to her must be imaginary. But still he would
be her husband. Without thinking highly either of men or
matrimony, marriage had always been her object; it was the
only provision for well-educated young women of small for-
5. tune, and however uncertain of giving happiness, must be
their pleasantest preservative from want. This preservative
she had now obtained; and at the age of twenty-seven, with-
out having ever been handsome, she felt all the good luck
of it. The least agreeable circumstance in the business was
the surprise it must occasion to Elizabeth Bennet, whose
friendship she valued beyond that of any other person. Eliz-
abeth would wonder, and probably would blame her; and
though her resolution was not to be shaken, her feelings
must be hurt by such a disapprobation. She resolved to give
her the information herself, and therefore charged Mr. Col-
lins, when he returned to Longbourn to dinner, to drop no
hint of what had passed before any of the family. A promise
of secrecy was of course very dutifully given, but it could
not be kept without difficulty; for the curiosity excited by
his long absence burst forth in such very direct questions
Pride and Prejudice1��
on his return as required some ingenuity to evade, and he
was at the same time exercising great self-denial, for he was
longing to publish his prosperous love.
As he was to begin his journey too early on the morrow
to see any of the family, the ceremony of leave-taking was
performed when the ladies moved for the night; and Mrs.
Bennet, with great politeness and cordiality, said how hap-
py they should be to see him at Longbourn again, whenever
his engagements might allow him to visit them.
‘My dear madam,’ he replied, ‘this invitation is particu-
larly gratifying, because it is what I have been hoping to
receive; and you may be very certain that I shall avail myself
of it as soon as possible.’
6. They were all astonished; and Mr. Bennet, who could by
no means wish for so speedy a return, immediately said:
‘But is there not danger of Lady Catherine’s disapproba-
tion here, my good sir? You had better neglect your relations
than run the risk of offending your patroness.’
‘My dear sir,’ replied Mr. Collins,’ I am particularly
obliged to you for this friendly caution, and you may de-
pend upon my not taking so material a step without her
ladyship’s concurrence.’
‘You cannot be too much upon your guard. Risk any-
thing rather than her displeasure; and if you find it likely to
be raised by your coming to us again, which I should think
exceedingly probable, stay quietly at home, and be satisfied
that WE shall take no offence.’
‘Believe me, my dear sir, my gratitude is warmly excited
by such affectionate attention; and depend upon it, you will
1��Free eBooks at Planet eBook.com
speedily receive from me a letter of thanks for this, and for
every other mark of your regard during my stay in Hert-
fordshire. As for my fair cousins, though my absence may
not be long enough to render it necessary, I shall now take
the liberty of wishing them health and happiness, not ex-
cepting my cousin Elizabeth.’
With proper civilities the ladies then withdrew; all of
them equally surprised that he meditated a quick return.
Mrs. Bennet wished to understand by it that he thought of
7. paying his addresses to one of her younger girls, and Mary
might have been prevailed on to accept him. She rated his
abilities much higher than any of the others; there was a so-
lidity in his reflections which often struck her, and though
by no means so clever as herself, she thought that if encour-
aged to read and improve himself by such an example as
hers, he might become a very agreeable companion. But on
the following morning, every hope of this kind was done
away. Miss Lucas called soon after breakfast, and in a pri-
vate conference with Elizabeth related the event of the day
before.
The possibility of Mr. Collins’s fancying herself in love
with her friend had once occurred to Elizabeth within the
last day or two; but that Charlotte could encourage him
seemed almost as far from possibility as she could encour-
age him herself, and her astonishment was consequently so
great as to overcome at first the bounds of decorum, and she
could not help crying out:
‘Engaged to Mr. Collins! My dear Charlotte—impossi-
ble!’
Pride and Prejudice1��
The steady countenance which Miss Lucas had com-
manded in telling her story, gave way to a momentary
confusion here on receiving so direct a reproach; though,
as it was no more than she expected, she soon regained her
composure, and calmly replied:
‘Why should you be surprised, my dear Eliza? Do you
think it incredible that Mr. Collins should be able to pro-
cure any woman’s good opinion, because he was not so
8. happy as to succeed with you?’
But Elizabeth had now recollected herself, and making a
strong effort for it, was able to assure with tolerable firmness
that the prospect of their relationship was highly grateful to
her, and that she wished her all imaginable happiness.
‘I see what you are feeling,’ replied Charlotte. ‘You must
be surprised, very much surprised—so lately as Mr. Collins
was wishing to marry you. But when you have had time to
think it over, I hope you will be satisfied with what I have
done. I am not romantic, you know; I never was. I ask only a
comfortable home; and considering Mr. Collins’s character,
connection, and situation in life, I am convinced that my
chance of happiness with him is as fair as most people can
boast on entering the marriage state.’
Elizabeth quietly answered ‘Undoubtedly;’ and after
an awkward pause, they returned to the rest of the family.
Charlotte did not stay much longer, and Elizabeth was then
left to reflect on what she had heard. It was a long time be-
fore she became at all reconciled to the idea of so unsuitable
a match. The strangeness of Mr. Collins’s making two offers
of marriage within three days was nothing in comparison
1��Free eBooks at Planet eBook.com
of his being now accepted. She had always felt that Char-
lotte’s opinion of matrimony was not exactly like her own,
but she had not supposed it to be possible that, when called
into action, she would have sacrificed every better feeling
to worldly advantage. Charlotte the wife of Mr. Collins was
a most humiliating picture! And to the pang of a friend
disgracing herself and sunk in her esteem, was added the
9. distressing conviction that it was impossible for that friend
to be tolerably happy in the lot she had chosen.

Chapter 23
Elizabeth was sitting with her mother and sisters, re-flecting on
what she had heard, and doubting whether
she was authorised to mention it, when Sir William Lu-
cas himself appeared, sent by his daughter, to announce
her engagement to the family. With many compliments to
them, and much self-gratulation on the prospect of a con-
nection between the houses, he unfolded the matter—to an
audience not merely wondering, but incredulous; for Mrs.
Bennet, with more perseverance than politeness, protested
he must be entirely mistaken; and Lydia, always unguarded
and often uncivil, boisterously exclaimed:
‘Good Lord! Sir William, how can you tell such a story?
Do not you know that Mr. Collins wants to marry Lizzy?’
Nothing less than the complaisance of a courtier could
have borne without anger such treatment; but Sir William’s
good breeding carried him through it all; and though he
begged leave to be positive as to the truth of his information,
he listened to all their impertinence with the most forbear-
ing courtesy.
Elizabeth, feeling it incumbent on her to relieve him
from so unpleasant a situation, now put herself forward to
confirm his account, by mentioning her prior knowledge of
it from Charlotte herself; and endeavoured to put a stop to
the exclamations of her mother and sisters by the earnest-
10. 1�1Free eBooks at Planet eBook.com
ness of her congratulations to Sir William, in which she was
readily joined by Jane, and by making a variety of remarks
on the happiness that might be expected from the match,
the excellent character of Mr. Collins, and the convenient
distance of Hunsford from London.
Mrs. Bennet was in fact too much overpowered to say a
great deal while Sir William remained; but no sooner had
he left them than her feelings found a rapid vent. In the first
place, she persisted in disbelieving the whole of the matter;
secondly, she was very sure that Mr. Collins had been taken
in; thirdly, she trusted that they would never be happy to-
gether; and fourthly, that the match might be broken off.
Two inferences, however, were plainly deduced from the
whole: one, that Elizabeth was the real cause of the mis-
chief; and the other that she herself had been barbarously
misused by them all; and on these two points she principal-
ly dwelt during the rest of the day. Nothing could console
and nothing could appease her. Nor did that day wear out
her resentment. A week elapsed before she could see Eliza-
beth without scolding her, a month passed away before she
could speak to Sir William or Lady Lucas without being
rude, and many months were gone before she could at all
forgive their daughter.
Mr. Bennet’s emotions were much more tranquil on the
occasion, and such as he did experience he pronounced to
be of a most agreeable sort; for it gratified him, he said, to
discover that Charlotte Lucas, whom he had been used to
think tolerably sensible, was as foolish as his wife, and more
foolish than his daughter!
11. Pride and Prejudice1��
Jane confessed herself a little surprised at the match; but
she said less of her astonishment than of her earnest de-
sire for their happiness; nor could Elizabeth persuade her
to consider it as improbable. Kitty and Lydia were far from
envying Miss Lucas, for Mr. Collins was only a clergyman;
and it affected them in no other way than as a piece of news
to spread at Meryton.
Lady Lucas could not be insensible of triumph on be-
ing able to retort on Mrs. Bennet the comfort of having a
daughter well married; and she called at Longbourn rather
oftener than usual to say how happy she was, though Mrs.
Bennet’s sour looks and ill-natured remarks might have
been enough to drive happiness away.
Between Elizabeth and Charlotte there was a restraint
which kept them mutually silent on the subject; and Eliz-
abeth felt persuaded that no real confidence could ever
subsist between them again. Her disappointment in Char-
lotte made her turn with fonder regard to her sister, of whose
rectitude and delicacy she was sure her opinion could never
be shaken, and for whose happiness she grew daily more
anxious, as Bingley had now been gone a week and nothing
more was heard of his return.
Jane had sent Caroline an early answer to her letter, and
was counting the days till she might reasonably hope to
hear again. The promised letter of thanks from Mr. Collins
arrived on Tuesday, addressed to their father, and written
with all the solemnity of gratitude which a twelvemonth’s
abode in the family might have prompted. After discharg-
12. ing his conscience on that head, he proceeded to inform
1��Free eBooks at Planet eBook.com
them, with many rapturous expressions, of his happiness
in having obtained the affection of their amiable neighbour,
Miss Lucas, and then explained that it was merely with the
view of enjoying her society that he had been so ready to
close with their kind wish of seeing him again at Longbourn,
whither he hoped to be able to return on Monday fortnight;
for Lady Catherine, he added, so heartily approved his mar-
riage, that she wished it to take place as soon as possible,
which he trusted would be an unanswerable argument with
his amiable Charlotte to name an early day for making him
the happiest of men.
Mr. Collins’s return into Hertfordshire was no longer a
matter of pleasure to Mrs. Bennet. On the contrary, she was
as much disposed to complain of it as her husband. It was
very strange that he should come to Longbourn instead of
to Lucas Lodge; it was also very inconvenient and exceed-
ingly troublesome. She hated having visitors in the house
while her health was so indifferent, and lovers were of all
people the most disagreeable. Such were the gentle mur-
murs of Mrs. Bennet, and they gave way only to the greater
distress of Mr. Bingley’s continued absence.
Neither Jane nor Elizabeth were comfortable on this sub-
ject. Day after day passed away without bringing any other
tidings of him than the report which shortly prevailed in
Meryton of his coming no more to Netherfield the whole
winter; a report which highly incensed Mrs. Bennet, and
which she never failed to contradict as a most scandalous
falsehood.
13. Even Elizabeth began to fear—not that Bingley was
Pride and Prejudice1��
indifferent—but that his sisters would be successful in
keeping him away. Unwilling as she was to admit an idea
so destructive of Jane’s happiness, and so dishonorable to
the stability of her lover, she could not prevent its frequent-
ly occurring. The united efforts of his two unfeeling sisters
and of his overpowering friend, assisted by the attractions
of Miss Darcy and the amusements of London might be too
much, she feared, for the strength of his attachment.
As for Jane, HER anxiety under this suspense was, of
course, more painful than Elizabeth’s, but whatever she felt
she was desirous of concealing, and between herself and
Elizabeth, therefore, the subject was never alluded to. But
as no such delicacy restrained her mother, an hour seldom
passed in which she did not talk of Bingley, express her im-
patience for his arrival, or even require Jane to confess that
if he did not come back she would think herself very ill used.
It needed all Jane’s steady mildness to bear these attacks
with tolerable tranquillity.
Mr. Collins returned most punctually on Monday fort-
night, but his reception at Longbourn was not quite so
gracious as it had been on his first introduction. He was
too happy, however, to need much attention; and luckily
for the others, the business of love-making relieved them
from a great deal of his company. The chief of every day was
spent by him at Lucas Lodge, and he sometimes returned to
Longbourn only in time to make an apology for his absence
before the family went to bed.
14. Mrs. Bennet was really in a most pitiable state. The very
mention of anything concerning the match threw her into
1��Free eBooks at Planet eBook.com
an agony of ill-humour, and wherever she went she was sure
of hearing it talked of. The sight of Miss Lucas was odious
to her. As her successor in that house, she regarded her with
jealous abhorrence. Whenever Charlotte came to see them,
she concluded her to be anticipating the hour of possession;
and whenever she spoke in a low voice to Mr. Collins, was
convinced that they were talking of the Longbourn estate,
and resolving to turn herself and her daughters out of the
house, as soon as Mr. Bennet were dead. She complained
bitterly of all this to her husband.
‘Indeed, Mr. Bennet,’ said she, ‘it is very hard to think
that Charlotte Lucas should ever be mistress of this house,
that I should be forced to make way for HER, and live to see
her take her place in it!’
‘My dear, do not give way to such gloomy thoughts. Let
us hope for better things. Let us flatter ourselves that I may
be the survivor.’
This was not very consoling to Mrs. Bennet, and there-
fore, instead of making any answer, she went on as before.
‘I cannot bear to think that they should have all this es-
tate. If it was not for the entail, I should not mind it.’
‘What should not you mind?’
‘I should not mind anything at all.’
15. ‘Let us be thankful that you are preserved from a state of
such insensibility.’
‘I never can be thankful, Mr. Bennet, for anything about
the entail. How anyone could have the conscience to entail
away an estate from one’s own daughters, I cannot under-
stand; and all for the sake of Mr. Collins too! Why should
Pride and Prejudice1��
HE have it more than anybody else?’
‘I leave it to yourself to determine,’ said Mr. Bennet.

Chapter 24
Miss Bingley’s letter arrived, and put an end to doubt. The very
first sentence conveyed the assurance of
their being all settled in London for the winter, and con-
cluded with her brother’s regret at not having had time to
pay his respects to his friends in Hertfordshire before he left
the country.
Hope was over, entirely over; and when Jane could attend
to the rest of the letter, she found little, except the professed
affection of the writer, that could give her any comfort. Miss
Darcy’s praise occupied the chief of it. Her many attrac-
tions were again dwelt on, and Caroline boasted joyfully of
their increasing intimacy, and ventured to predict the ac-
complishment of the wishes which had been unfolded in
16. her former letter. She wrote also with great pleasure of her
brother’s being an inmate of Mr. Darcy’s house, and men-
tioned with raptures some plans of the latter with regard to
new furniture.
Elizabeth, to whom Jane very soon communicated the
chief of all this, heard it in silent indignation. Her heart
was divided between concern for her sister, and resentment
against all others. To Caroline’s assertion of her brother’s
being partial to Miss Darcy she paid no credit. That he was
really fond of Jane, she doubted no more than she had ever
done; and much as she had always been disposed to like
Pride and Prejudice1��
him, she could not think without anger, hardly without
contempt, on that easiness of temper, that want of proper
resolution, which now made him the slave of his designing
friends, and led him to sacrifice of his own happiness to the
caprice of their inclination. Had his own happiness, how-
ever, been the only sacrifice, he might have been allowed to
sport with it in whatever manner he thought best, but her
sister’s was involved in it, as she thought he must be sensible
himself. It was a subject, in short, on which reflection would
be long indulged, and must be unavailing. She could think
of nothing else; and yet whether Bingley’s regard had really
died away, or were suppressed by his friends’ interference;
whether he had been aware of Jane’s attachment, or wheth-
er it had escaped his observation; whatever were the case,
though her opinion of him must be materially affected by
the difference, her sister’s situation remained the same, her
peace equally wounded.
A day or two passed before Jane had courage to speak of
17. her feelings to Elizabeth; but at last, on Mrs. Bennet’s leav-
ing them together, after a longer irritation than usual about
Netherfield and its master, she could not help saying:
‘Oh, that my dear mother had more command over her-
self! She can have no idea of the pain she gives me by her
continual reflections on him. But I will not repine. It can-
not last long. He will be forgot, and we shall all be as we
were before.’
Elizabeth looked at her sister with incredulous solici-
tude, but said nothing.
‘You doubt me,’ cried Jane, slightly colouring; ‘indeed,
1��Free eBooks at Planet eBook.com
you have no reason. He may live in my memory as the most
amiable man of my acquaintance, but that is all. I have noth-
ing either to hope or fear, and nothing to reproach him with.
Thank God! I have not THAT pain. A little time, therefore—
I shall certainly try to get the better.’
With a stronger voice she soon added, ‘I have this com-
fort immediately, that it has not been more than an error of
fancy on my side, and that it has done no harm to anyone
but myself.’
‘My dear Jane!’ exclaimed Elizabeth, ‘you are too good.
Your sweetness and disinterestedness are really angelic; I do
not know what to say to you. I feel as if I had never done you
justice, or loved you as you deserve.’
Miss Bennet eagerly disclaimed all extraordinary merit,
18. and threw back the praise on her sister’s warm affection.
‘Nay,’ said Elizabeth, ‘this is not fair. YOU wish to think
all the world respectable, and are hurt if I speak ill of any-
body. I only want to think YOU perfect, and you set yourself
against it. Do not be afraid of my running into any excess,
of my encroaching on your privilege of universal good-will.
You need not. There are few people whom I really love, and
still fewer of whom I think well. The more I see of the world,
the more am I dissatisfied with it; and every day confirms
my belief of the inconsistency of all human characters, and
of the little dependence that can be placed on the appear-
ance of merit or sense. I have met with two instances lately,
one I will not mention; the other is Charlotte’s marriage. It
is unaccountable! In every view it is unaccountable!’
‘My dear Lizzy, do not give way to such feelings as these.
Pride and Prejudice1�0
They will ruin your happiness. You do not make allowance
enough for difference of situation and temper. Consider
Mr. Collins’s respectability, and Charlotte’s steady, prudent
character. Remember that she is one of a large family; that
as to fortune, it is a most eligible match; and be ready to be-
lieve, for everybody’s sake, that she may feel something like
regard and esteem for our cousin.’
‘To oblige you, I would try to believe almost anything,
but no one else could be benefited by such a belief as this;
for were I persuaded that Charlotte had any regard for him,
I should only think worse of her understanding than I now
do of her heart. My dear Jane, Mr. Collins is a conceited,
pompous, narrow-minded, silly man; you know he is, as
19. well as I do; and you must feel, as well as I do, that the wom-
an who married him cannot have a proper way of thinking.
You shall not defend her, though it is Charlotte Lucas. You
shall not, for the sake of one individual, change the mean-
ing of principle and integrity, nor endeavour to persuade
yourself or me, that selfishness is prudence, and insensibil-
ity of danger security for happiness.’
‘I must think your language too strong in speaking of
both,’ replied Jane; ‘and I hope you will be convinced of it
by seeing them happy together. But enough of this. You al-
luded to something else. You mentioned TWO instances. I
cannot misunderstand you, but I entreat you, dear Lizzy, not
to pain me by thinking THAT PERSON to blame, and say-
ing your opinion of him is sunk. We must not be so ready to
fancy ourselves intentionally injured. We must not expect a
lively young man to be always so guarded and circumspect.
