I don't disagree they were well-known Written by CarolTS (3/3/2009 5:12 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, P.S: More evidence that this may have been a school text, penned by Line

But I still think from the way they're introduced that Catherine's deliberately choosing these verses because they seem "heroine-like" to her - they seem like the kind of thing she should know if she's like the girls in other novels. From her unstudious habits - there's no way I'd think Catherine would be finding quotations not in the common use!
