Mr. Darcy proposes to Elizabeth twice. The first time, at Hunsford, his proposal is long winded, arrogant, and insulting. Elizabeth, who has already come to regard him as conceited and unpleasant, is not particularly impressed and turns him down.
Darcy's second proposal is simple, unassuming, and short. This time he is successful, but that is mostly because Elizabeth has gained a much better understanding of him.
