4. Mr. Darcy finds himself succumbing to Elizabeth’s charms.

Explanation:

1. At the beginning of the story, Mr. Bennet, Elizabeth's father, visits their new "neighbor", Mr. Bingley, who is renting a mansion in the estate called Netherfield. Bingley is a wealthy single man who quickly becomes the object of almost every girl's attention.

2. There is a public ball, and Bingley attends it along with his friend, Mr. Darcy. Bingley falls for Jane, Elizabeth's sister. He tells Darcy that Elizabeth is also a beautiful girl, but Darcy snubs her, saying she is not beautiful enough to tempt him. Elizabeth overhears their conversation.

3. Jane is forced by her mother to ride on horseback while it rains when she goes to visit Netherfield. She catches a cold and has to stay as Bingley's guest for a few days, while she recovers. Elizabeth goes to Netherfield to stay with her sister.

4. With Elizabeth constantly around, Darcy begins to fall fer her charms. However, at this point, she is ignorant of this fact, and still finds him to be a proud and annoying man.

5. Back at her home, Elizabeth and her family are visited by a relative, Mr. Collins. Collins will inherit the house where the Bennets live once Mr. Bennet dies. He thinks that is a good enough reason to propose marriage to Elizabeth. She refuses his proposal.

“asleep in his bed” is personified.
