"Ah! ma'am, but there may be a difficulty, Pardone me--but you willl be limited as to number---only three at once."
I can't believe I stumped anyone with this very obvious quote, it's from the infamous Box Hill picnic, in Emma, the first speaker is Miss Bates, and the second is Emma Wodehouse.

When the ladies were separating for the toilette, he said to _"Do not make yourself uneasy, my dear cousin, about your apparel. Lady_is far form requiring that elegance of dress in us, which becomes herself and daughter. I would advise you merely to put on whatever of your clothes is superior to the rest, there is no occasion for more.Lady_will not think the worse of you for being simply dressed. She likes to have the distinction of rank preserved."
Mr. Collins to Lizzy.

So sorry it's taken me so long to reply, if anyone is still interested in continuing, reply to this message.

Siren,


That quote is from the novel Emma; Miss Bates says the former quote, and Emma the latter. Since this is a P&P trivia contest, do you have another Pride and Prejudice quote?
