"Miss Elizabeth. I have struggled in vain and I can bear it no longer. These past few months have been a torment. I came to Rosings with the single object of seeing you. I had to see you. I have fought against my better judgement, my family's expectations, the inferiority of your birth, my rank and circumstances. All these things I am willing to put aside and ask you to end my agony."
"I don't understand."
"I love you. Most ardently. Please do me the honour of accepting my hand."
