Context in the novel:
Elizabeth and Mrs. Gardiner wish to reciprocate Georgiana’s civility
Principles:
It has been settled between her aunt and herself that such a striking civility as Miss Darcy’s in coming to them on the very day of her arrival at Pemberley – for Georgiana had reached Pemberley only to a late breakfast, ought to be imitated, though it could not be equaled, by some exertion of politeness in their side
Topics discussed:
Finite, infinite, time, space, structure, love, marriage, romance, chance, politeness, goodness, vulnerability, inaction, spiritual cheerfulness, imitating the socially superior, knowing Mother
Questions raised:
Why is a good, fair person always vulnerable?
