the long version

Elizabeth had barely begun to enjoy her freedom from the subjugation of wedlock when her father, who had sold her into marriage once, prepared to sell her again. — Meanwhile, the insufferably arrogant Earl of Colchester, who emphatically did not want a wife, proposed she should become the latest on his list of mistresses. — Elizabeth thus had to choose between a monstrous marriage and a shameful situation.
