Elizabeth had scarcely time to disclaim all right to the compliment, before their approach was announced by the door-bell, and shortly afterwards the three gentlemen entered the room. Colonel Fitzwilliam, who led the way, was about thirty, not handsome, but in person and address most truly the gentleman. Mr. Darcy looked just as he had been used to look in Hertfordshire, paid his compliments, with his usual reserve, to Mrs. Collins; and whatever might be his feelings towards her friend, met her with every appearance of composure. Elizabeth merely curtseyed to him, without saying a word.

伊丽莎白听到这番恭维话,还没有来得及申辩,门铃就响了,宣布贵宾光临。不大一会儿工夫,宾主三人一同走进屋来。带头的是费茨威廉上校,大约三十岁左右,人长得不漂亮,可是从仪表和谈吐看来,倒是个地道的绅士。达西先生完全是当初在哈福德郡的那副老样子,用他往常一贯的矜持态度,向柯林斯太太问好。尽管他对她的朋友伊丽莎白可能另有一种感情,然而见到她的时候,神色却极其镇定。伊丽莎白只对他行了个屈膝礼,一句话也没说。

Colonel Fitzwilliam entered into conversation directly with the readiness and ease of a well-bred man, and talked very pleasantly; but his cousin, after having addressed a slight observation on the house and garden to Mrs. Collins, sat for some time without speaking to any body. At length, however, his civility was so far awakened as to enquire of Elizabeth after the health of her family. She answered him in the usual way, and after a moment's pause, added, "My eldest sister has been in town these three months. Have you never happened to see her there?"

费茨威廉上校立刻就跟大家攀谈起来,口齿伶俐,象个有教养的人,并且谈得颇有风趣;可是他那位表兄,却只跟柯林斯太太把房子和花园稍许评赏了几句,就坐那儿没有跟任何人说话。过了一会儿,他重新想到了礼貌问题,便向伊丽莎白问候她和她全家人的安好。伊丽莎白照例敷衍了他几句,停了片刻,她又说:“我姐姐最近三个月来一直在城里。你从来没有碰到过她吗?”
She was perfectly sensible that he never had; but she wished to see whether he would betray any consciousness of what had passed between the Bingleys and Jane; and she thought he looked a little confused as he answered that he had never been so fortunate as to meet Miss Bennet. The subject was pursued no farther, and the gentlemen soon afterwards went away.
其实她明明知道他从来没有碰到过吉英,只不过为了想要探探他的口气,看看他是否知道彬格莱一家人和吉英之间的关系。他回答说,不幸从来未曾碰到过班纳特小姐,她觉得他回答这话时神色有点慌张。这件事没有再谈下去,两位贵宾立刻就告辞了。
