Where it comes from
Jane Austen wrote it in chapter 26 of Pride and Prejudice. Here is the prose either side of it, with the sentence you are solving left out.
"Perhaps it will be as well if you discourage his coming here so very often. At least you should not remind your mother of inviting him."
The sentence you are solving goes here.
Her aunt assured her that she was; and Elizabeth, having thanked her for the kindness of her hints, they parted, - a wonderful instance of advice being given on such a point without being resented.
Text from the Project Gutenberg edition, which is in the public domain in the United States.
