Where it comes from
Jane Austen wrote it in chapter 41 of Pride and Prejudice. Here is the prose either side of it, with the sentence you are solving left out.
Elizabeth could not repress a smile at this, but she answered only by a slight inclination of the head. She saw that he wanted to engage her on the old subject of his grievances, and she was in no humour to indulge him. The rest of the evening passed with the appearance, on his side, of usual cheerfulness, but with no further attempt to distinguish Elizabeth; and they parted at last with mutual civility, and possibly a mutual desire of never meeting again.
The sentence you are solving goes here.
Text from the Project Gutenberg edition, which is in the public domain in the United States.
