Jane Austen Made Me Do It (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
—Pride and Prejudice, Chapter 27 To Miss Lydia Bennet Longbourn House, Longbourn, Near Meryton, Hertfordshire. March 12th My Dear Lydia, Well, here I am at Hunsford Parsonage, after a Delightful Stay in London. We went to the Play, and saw The Rivals, in a Box! And we visited some Ware-houses, and I purchas’d a length of very pretty figured muslin, sprigg’d with forget-me-nots. ’Twill be the talk of Meryton. How I wish we could have staid in London! Instead I am cooped up here. I was to Write and tell you my Doings, but, alas, Doings are there none. Every Body here is Elderly, and they have but little Time for Me. I have try’d to confide in Hannah the Housemaid, the only other Young Person in this House, but when I ask’d her Opinion of Otranto she answer’d that she had never eaten any and, on my questioning her further, confess’d that she cannot read. We have been here for three whole Days. Mr. Collins and Charlotte are fattening a Pig—I truly feel that the Animal is more absorbing to Charlotte than poor Me.
