[Anxiously.] I am sure she will be here in a moment. [Elizabeth enters.] Oh, here she is. [Presenting Elizabeth.] Lady Catherine, Miss Elizabeth Bennet. [Elizabeth curtsies.]

Lady Catherine.

[Without leaving her seat, looks Elizabeth over from head to foot.] Oh, how do you do, Miss Bennet. You are younger than I thought!

Elizabeth.

[Smiling.] Indeed?

Lady Catherine.

You know my nephew, Mr. Darcy?

Elizabeth.

Yes, I met him in Hertfordshire.

Lady Catherine.
