Scampers about the countryside,
(Full of prejudice, not of pride),
To "sickly" sister, aspiring bride.

"Wild" appearance, unladylike distaste,
But fine bright eyes do compensate,
And intensify intentions to conjugate.

Always reading, unbecoming and uncaring,
This only makes her more endearing,
Despite jealous scoffs and jeering.

This is about Elizabeth Bennett, full of mud and running to see her sister Jane.

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;
