Amanda Jacobs - Miss Bennet Lyrics

[LADY CATHERINE]
You know why I am here
Miss Bennet

[ELIZABETH]
Indeed, I do not

[LADY CATHERINE]
Miss Bennet
I am not to be trifled with
Two days ago your elder sister
Made an advantageous match
And will soon be married
I also heard alarming news
Which I have come to bury

That you
Miss Bennet
And my own nephew
Miss Bennet
Very soon will be united too!

Though I know it to be a most scandalous falsehood
Has my nephew made an offer?

[ELIZABETH]
Lady Catherine
You have claimed it can't be true
[LADY CATHERINE]
If enticed by your allurements he forgot his sense
You may have drawn him in, Miss Bennet

[ELIZABETH]
If I have then I shall be
The last one to confess it

[LADY CATHERINE]
Do you know who I am, Miss Bennet?
Let me be understood!
Mr. Darcy is engaged to my daughter!

[ELIZABETH]
But you said he made me
An offer

[LADY CATHERINE]
The engagement is of a peculiar kind
Both mothers planned that the fortunes combine

[ELIZABETH]
Not bound by the wishes of aunt and mother
Mr. Darcy is free to choose another

And if he wants to marry me
Why may I not accept him freely?
[LADY CATHERINE]
Because honor forbids it!
And you will not receive or deserve my attention
By family and friends your name will not be mentioned

[ELIZABETH]
Those are heavy misfortunes
Lady Catherine
But his wife, she could ignore them
Lady Catherine

[LADY CATHERINE]
Obstinate, obstinate, headstrong girl!

My nephew and daughter
Are fated to be
Are you to de-bind them
From their destiny?

You have no connections
You know I’m sincere
Come now, be sensible
Don't quit your sphere

[ELIZABETH]
If I should marry him
I would not consider it
Quitting my sphere
I'm a gentleman’s daughter
Your nephew knows
I am more worthy
Than you could suppose

[LADY CATHERINE]
Tell me once and for all
Are you engaged?

(Music stops.)

[ELIZABETH]
I am not

(Music resumes.)

[LADY CATHERINE]
And you now must promise me
To never, ever marry him

[ELIZABETH]
You cannot tell me what to do
My life won't be defined by you

[LADY CATHERINE]
But what about your younger sister?

[ELIZABETH]
What about her?

[LADY CATHERINE]
Patched-up business
Her allotment
Such a girl to be my niece
Her husband to be Darcy's brother!

Heaven and earth!
Are the shades of Pemberley
To be thus polluted?

[ELIZABETH]
I have nothing to say
Lady Catherine
You insult in every way

[LADY CATHERINE]
Are you then resolved to have him?

[ELIZABETH]
I'm resolved
To be happy
Without reference to you

[LADY CATHERINE]
Very well
I shall know what to do

(Music stops.)

[LADY CATHERINE, spoken]
I take no leave of you. I send no compliments to your mother!
(sung)
Miss Bennet!
