Elizabeth, Elizabeth. If you believed in the words of a gossip whose niece could have been a nut case, you deserved to be unhappy. And Darcy. Why were you surprised at all to have been cold shouldered by Elizabeth, the way you were carrying on with that Cornish woman.
I don't know which Elizabeth was more pathetic, the one in canon so ready to be taken in by a militia man or this one who refused to temper her disapprobation with any recollection of the very cordial and enjoyable time she had spent in town with her would be suitor.
