Summary
'Well,' said Edward, uncomfortable, but knowing he could not avoid making the invitation now, 'I would consider it an honour if Lady Darcy would accept my hand for this dance.' She would surely reject him now, and he could not say he was entirely unhappy about it; he had no desire to dance with her.
She surprised him -- she dropped in a small curtsey, and said, 'Thank you, sir, it would be a pleasure.'

Summary
And this night, I know not upon what ground, the gates of the City [were] ordered to be all shut, and double guards everywhere, and we are going upon making of all ships coming from thence and Hambrough, or any other infected places, to perform their Quarantine (for thirty days as Sir Rd. Browne expressed it in the order of the Council, contrary to the import of the word, though in general acceptation it signifies now the thing, not the time spent in doing it) in Holehaven, a thing never done by us before.

As I said in my comment, lovely and haunting. The song is very sad -- this actually makes it better, though I wouldn't say it's a happy story.

Notes
It stops just when something is going to happen, but it's an excellent beginning. The tone is great and just-right for Austen, and there are too many hilarious lines to quote. <3
