    Why---'First,' he continued, 'it is right for a priest to marry, as an example to other people. Secondly, I'm sure marriage will add greatly to my happiness, and thirdly, which perhaps I should have mentioned earlier, my generous patron has advised me to marry. "Find an active, useful sort of person," she told me, "a woman who can make a small income go a long way. Bring her to Hunsford as your wife, and I'll visit her." So I decided to choose a wife from among my Bennet cousins, to lessen the loss to the family when the sad event of your father's death takes place. Reaction---Elizabeth firmly rejected Mr. Coslin, believing it to be absurd and not happy. Mr. Coslin proposed to Charlotte for the second time.
