Solved cryptogram

My kind friends will not hear of my returning home till I am better.

Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice, chapter 7.

The passage it comes from

The quotation is marked in the paragraph it sits in, with the prose either side of it for company.

/* NIND "My dearest Lizzie, */

"I find myself very unwell this morning, which, I suppose, is to be imputed to my getting wet through yesterday. My kind friends will not hear of my returning home till I am better. They insist also on my seeing Mr. Jones - therefore do not be alarmed if you should hear of his having been to me - and, excepting a sore throat and a headache, there is not much the matter with me.

"Yours, etc."
