I am a part of my family, Mr. Darcy; and allow me to say that, since I have had the opportunity of comparing my relations with your own, the contrast is not so marked as I had been led to suppose. (DARCY starts.) But--aside from all questions of either feeling or family--do you think any consideration would tempt me to accept the man who has been the means of ruining, perhaps forever, the happiness of a most beloved sister, and involving her in misery of the acutest kind? (DARCY looks at her with a smile of incredulity..) Can you deny that you have done this?
