"Is the colonel single?"
"Very much so."
"Oh, colonel! My three youngest daughters are all unattached and quite pretty."
"What are you are doing?"
"Have you not heard of the saying 'Omne trium perfectum'? A triple wedding would be perfect!"
"My Anne would surely have priority. You cannot always win!"
"All is fair in love in war."
"Nephew! You are fond of Anne, are you not?"
"Ahhh…"
"Colonel, whom do you prefer, Mary, Kitty or Lydia?"
"Erm…"
"Remember, Anne is an heiress."
"Money cannot guarantee happiness."
"Your choice, Richard?"
"There is a prettyish kind of a little wilderness..." Retreat! Retreat!
