From herself to Jane, from Jane to Bingley, her thoughts were in

a line which soon brought to her recollection that Mr. Darcy's

explanation there had appeared very insufficient; and she read it

again. Widely different was the effect of a second perusal. How

could she deny that credit to his assertions, in one instance,

which she had been obliged to give in the other? He declared

himself to have been totally unsuspicious of her sister's

attachment; and she could not help remembering what Charlotte's

opinion had always been. Neither could she deny the justice of

his description of Jane. She felt that Jane's feelings, though

fervent, were little displayed, and that there was a constant

complacency in her air and manner, not often united with great

sensibility.
