Elizabeth+Bennet+pd.8

= __Elizbeth Bennet__ = Elizabeth is a young woman who is very intelligent and pretty. She is well-spoken and well-read. She is independent and firm in her beliefs that marriage is about love, not about money. She is also very caring for Jane. When Jane was sick after being in the rain, Elizabeth walked three miles in the mud to check on her. She was not very well-met when she entered the home, because a Caroline Bingley was not supposed to act in such a manner. It would appear that Mr.Darcy has feelings for Jane. Jane thinks he hates her and she dislikes him. They danced at Mr.Bingley's ball, but it was very awkward.As the story progresses Elizabeth seems to be warming up to Mr.Darcy. (spoiler alert: at the end of the book they get married.) However Mr.Darcy is not the only one interested in Elizabeth. Mr.Collins also set his eyes upon the maiden. He proposed and Miss Elizabeth declined in the softest way she could. However, Mr.Collins just thought she was playing hard to get. Later Elizabeth's friend marries him for money, Charolette Lucas. Elizabeth thought she was different and was very disssapointed in her.
