Pride & Prejudice
Miss Elizabeth. I have struggled in vain and I can bear it no longer. These past 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 expectation, the inferiority of your birth my rank and circumstance, all these things, and I'm willing to put them aside and ask you to end my agony. I love you. Most ardently.
If, however, your feelings have changed, I would have to tell you, you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love... I love... I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.
I cannot believe that anyone can deserve you, but it seems I am overruled.
