Where it comes from
Jane Austen wrote it in chapter 29 of Pride and Prejudice. Here is the prose either side of it, with the sentence you are solving left out.
"All! What, all five out at once? Very odd! And you only the second. The younger ones out before the elder are married! Your younger sisters must be very young?"
The sentence you are solving goes here.
"Upon my word," said her Ladyship, "you give your opinion very decidedly for so young a person. Pray, what is your age?"
Text from the Project Gutenberg edition, which is in the public domain in the United States.
