The Margin

Person

Jane Bennet

Also known as Jane.

The eldest Bennet daughter and the great beauty of the family, gentle, even-tempered, and unwilling to think ill of anyone. Where Elizabeth judges, Jane forgives. Her serenity hides feeling rather than the lack of it.

Chapter XXI

Bingley leaves Netherfield for London, and his sister's letter makes plain he is not expected back. Jane bears the disappointment without complaint.

Chapter LV

Bingley returns and asks for her at last. She is, in her own quiet way, perfectly happy.
