P&P #1 3/18 ch. 1-6

"'If I can but see one of my daughters happily setlled at Netherfield," said Mrs. Bennet to her husband, "and all the others equally well married, i shall have nothing to wish for'" (11).

Here we can see just how much wealth in Mrs. Bennet's daughters' marriages means to her. All she wants is for her daughters to marry wealthy men, and it is just a plus if the men are handsome or amiable. Mrs. Bennet has a terrible disposition to think of money before anything else when it comes to her daughters' marriages and thay may cause a problem further on. One of her daughters may fall for a man with little wealth and Mrs. Bennet will clearly not approve.

Mr. Darcy is a very ______ man.

a.) Propitious

b.) Affable

c.) Haughty

d.) Diffidence
