“But at length, by Elizabeth’s persuasion, he was prevailed on to overlook the offence and seek a reconciliation; and after a little farther resistance on the part of his aunt, her resentment gave way, either to her affection for him, or her curiosity to see how his wife conducted herself; and she condescended to wait on them at Pemberley, in spite of that pollution which its woods had received, not merely from the presence of such a mistress, but the visits of her uncle and aunt from that city” (326).
Lady Catherine’s approbation of Darcy’s marriage is the final obstacle that he and Lizzy had to overcome to achieve emotional justice. In terms of a traditional love story, Elizabeth and Darcy surely had their share of both personal and external faults to fight through. Although there were some patches of asperity, the two lovers found their way to each other in the end. Their triumph is truly remarkable due to the extent of faults in which they had to overcome. They had all the same as Jane and Bingley, which is perceived as a tough road to overcome. The extent to which they had to overcome these faults are also greater as Darcy is in a higher class than Bingley, making the class difference for substantial. This has followed the path of a traditional love story, as Elizabeth and Darcy have found felicity.
