Without allowing herself time for consideration, and scarcely knowing what she felt, Elizabeth, on finishing this letter, instantly seized the other, and opening it with the utmost impatience, read as follows: it had been written a day later than the conclusion of the first.
One paragraph next to it is a cryptogram here in its own right, so it is left out too: the medium one from chapter 46.
Text from the Project Gutenberg edition, which is in the public domain in the United States.
