Poor Elizabeth

By Ethan Rouen ’04J on September 23, 2009

Elizabeth's wish to see Darcy marrying someone "sickly and cross," like Lady de Bourgh's daughter, belies her confident exterior.
Making matters worse, when Elizabeth comes to Collins' parish, he and Charlotte treat her well, but Lady de Bourgh lays into her, deciding that she and her sisters were poorly raised. They needed a governess. In addition, some musical or artistic talents - something to entertain the men they should have been reared to serve - would have put them in a better position.
