a. Lord Matlock
b. Georgiana
c. Mr. Keith

b. Stephen Lathrop
c. Gerald Vernor
d. Marquis of Orman
3) “Elizabeth, do not fret. It will remain discreet and William would never be angry with you for this. You said no one noticed.”

c. Georgiana
d. Lady Matlock
4) “Cute? I am not certain how manly it is to be labeled ‘cute.’”
a. Richard Fitzwilliam

a. Lizzy
b. Lady Matlock
c. Bertha Vernor

a. Mr. Keith
b. Darcy
c. Georgiana
d. Richard Fitzwilliam
9) “I am certain that Mr. Darcy has warned you that the rumors of your grace and beauty have preceded your entry into our little community. Now I shall be able to brag to all that I beheld you first and can glowingly proclaim that the rumors pale in comparison to the reality that was before me.”
