Jane is astonished that Elizabeth can love Mr. Darcy given their history. Lady Catherine insists that the notion of marriage is ridiculous. She does not think well of Elizabeth because Elizabeth is "low born". Wickham would frown on it because he hates Mr. Darcy and had unsuccessfully tried to woo Elizabeth.
