"The Bennets were speedily pronounced to be the luckiest family in the world; though only a few weeks before, when Lydia had first run away, they had been generally proved to be marked out for misfortune" (339)
When Lydia had run off with Wickham unmarried, the Bennets thought their reputation was doomed forever. Eventhough Mrs. Bennet was estatic to have one of her daughters married, she still thought Lydia's reputation would be ruined and the whole family, leading to musfortune and no more marriages, but miracles can happen. Bingly still loves Jane and proposed to her, Dary still loves Lizzy and Lizzy actually does love him too, and so Darcy also proposes to Lizzy. Even after such a horrible thing happened, love prevailed and overcame bad reputations and levels in society and a not so great family because the luckiest family.
Lady Catherine does not accept Darcy and Lizzy's marriage at first because:
I) She thinks the Bennets are not a suitable family for Darcy.
II) She doesn't like Darcy.
III) She thinks Darcy should be marrying her daughter.
IV) She never didn't accept it.
a) Just IV
b) I and III
c) II and III
d) Just I
