She hurt you, didn't she Dear Mr. Darcy? With the letter she wrote back, for the one she received, I swear I was mad, I asked her to show some mercy, But oh, her prejudice, it's annoying, believe me, Of course, you know your wife, better than me. When you showed up to rescue, poor little Lydi (Lydia), I was worried, excited and confused unknowingly, Not of anything, but my thoughts, Dear Mr. Darcy, You proved everyone wrong, except for me, When you accepted your pride, so humbly.
