“You judge very properly,” said Mr. Bennet,

“and it is happy for you that you possess the talent of flattering with delicacy.

May I ask whether these pleasing attentions proceed from the impulse of the moment, or are the result of previous study?”

“They arise chiefly from what is passing at the time,

and though I sometimes amuse myself with suggesting and arranging such little elegant compliments as may be adapted to ordinary occasions, I always wish to give them as unstudied an air as possible.”

Mr. Bennet's expectations were fully answered.

His cousin was as absurd as he had hoped,

and he listened to him with the keenest enjoyment, maintaining at the same time the most resolute composure of countenance,

and except in an occasional glance at Elizabeth, requiring no partner in his pleasure.

By tea-time, however, the dose had been enough, and Mr. Bennet was glad to take his guest into the drawing-room again, and when tea was over, glad to invite him to read aloud to the ladies.
