Good question. Here are a couple of equalities between
Elizabeth and Darcy.
1. They seem to be equal in
intelligence and wit. Elizabeth is an "accomplished" young lady, yet she does not brag
about any of her talents. Darcy has a formal education, but he knows that Elizabeth can
hold her own in a conversation with him or others of high
intelligence.
2. They are equal in maturity. Darcy, from a
young age, has had to care for his younger sister and a vast estate; so his maturity in
comparison to Bingley's is much more advanced. Elizabeth, though she is not the oldest
in her family, is certainly the most mature (many would argue that she is more mature
than both her parents) and feels the weight of having to worry about her younger
sisters' welfare and places in society.
