Oh! my dear brother, replied Mrs. Bennet, that is exactly what I could most wish for. And now do, when you get to town, find them out, wherever they may be; and if they are not married already, make them marry. And as for wedding clothes, do not let them wait for that, but tell Lydia she shall have as much money as she chuses to buy them, after they are married. And, above all things, keep Mr. Bennet from fighting. Tell him what a dreadful state I am in, that I am frightened out of my wits; and have such tremblings, such flutterings all over me such spasms in my side, and pains in my head, and such beatings at heart, that I can get no rest by night nor by day. And tell my dear Lydia, not to give any directions about her clothes till she has seen me, for she does not know which are the best warehouses. Oh, brother, how kind you are! I know you will contrive it all.
班納特太太回答道：“噢，好兄弟，這話正講在我心上。你一到城里，千萬把他們找到，不管他們在哪里也好；要是他們還沒有結婚，一定叫他們結婚。講到結婚的禮服，叫他們用不著等了，只告訴麗迪雅說，等他們結婚以后，她要多少錢做衣服我就給她多少錢。千萬要緊的是，別讓班納特先生跟他打架。還請你告訴他，我真是在活受罪，簡直給嚇得神經錯亂了，遍身發抖，東倒西歪，腰部抽搐，頭痛心跳，從白天到夜里，沒有一刻能夠安心。請你跟我的麗迪雅寶貝兒說，叫她不要自作主張做衣服，等到和我見了面再說，因為她不知道哪一家衣料店最好。噢，兄弟，你真是一片好心！我知道你會想出辦法來把樣樣事情都辦好。”
