PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, BY JANE AUSTEN & [your name here]
It is a [noun] universally [verb ending in -ed], that a single man in possession of a [adjective] [noun], must be in want of a [noun].
However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a [location], this [noun] is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding [plural noun], that he is considered the [adjective] property of some one or other of their [plural noun].
“My [adjective] Mr. Bennet,” said his lady to him one day, “have you heard that Netherfield Park is [adjective] at last?”
Mr. Bennet replied that he had not.
“But it is,” returned she; “for Mrs. Long has just been here, and she told me all about it.”
Mr. Bennet made no [noun].
“Do you not want to [verb] who has taken it?” cried his wife [adverb].
“You want to tell me, and I have no objection to [verb ending in -ing] it.”
This was invitation enough.
“Why, my [nickname], you must know, Mrs. Long says that [location] is taken by a [adjective] man of large [noun] from the north of [place]; that he came down on Monday in a [mode of transportation] to see the place, and was so much [emotion] with it, that he agreed with Mr. Morris immediately; that he is to take possession before [holiday], and some of his [plural noun] are to be in the house by the end of next week.”
“What is his name?”
“Bingley.”
“Is he [opposite adjective 1] or [opposite adjective 2]?”
“Oh! [opposite adjective 2], my dear, to be sure! A [opposite adjective 2] man of large [noun]; four or five thousand a year. What a fine [noun] for our girls!”
“How so? How can it affect them?”
“My [adjective] Mr. Bennet,” replied his wife, “how can you be so [adjective]! You must know that I am thinking of his [verb ending with -ing] one of them.”
“Is that his design in settling here?”
“Design! [Exclamation], how can you [verb] so! But it is very likely that he may fall in love with one of them, and therefore you must [verb] him as soon as he comes.”
