‘Darcy,

As your closest relative, I must say I am deeply disappointed in you. I now have the explanation for your silence and lack of consideration in replying to my letter. I would have expected such unguarded behaviour from Richard but not from you. Can you imagine the shame I had to suffer when my clergyman, Mr. Collins, informed me about the rumours regarding your outrageous relationship with his cousin? A woman of no connections and no consequence, whom even he refused to marry? A woman whose easy character made her turn towards that Wickham man, the son of your father’s steward? How dare you allow the shades of Pemberley to be thus polluted? I would expect a man in your position to be more discreet with his amusements.

I suppose I should be grateful that you came to your senses and eventually distanced yourself from that woman before you affected our family’s reputation. I pray that Anne will never suffer the torment of discovering the flaws in your character.

In order to remedy your errors, you should promise me to never speak to that woman again, and come to visit Rosings as soon as possible.’
