2 She mentioned this to her friend Miss Lucas.
3 "It will be her turn soon to be teased," said Miss Lucas.
4 It was at Sir William Lucas's, where a large party were assembled.
5 Lady Lucas herself has often said so, and envied me Jane's beauty.
6 "You began the evening well, Charlotte," said Mrs. Bennet with civil self-command to Miss Lucas.
7 Lady Lucas was a very good kind of woman, not too clever to be a valuable neighbour to Mrs. Bennet.
8 His pride," said Miss Lucas, "does not offend me so much as pride often does, because there is an excuse for it.
9 If I were as rich as Mr. Darcy," cried a young Lucas, who came with his sisters, "I should not care how proud I was.
10 Sir William and Lady Lucas are determined to go, merely on that account, for in general, you know, they visit no newcomers.
11 Elizabeth, for the sake of saying something that might turn her mother's thoughts, now asked her if Charlotte Lucas had been at Longbourn since her coming away.
