Even when she has visitors, Adrian, Written by gianni (4/29/2010 8:57 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Too many mince pies?, penned by Adrian

she accompanies Mr. Collins on parish work. From your message:

But she also may have thrown herself into visiting the parish poor and doing other good works when she does not have visitors and we do not read about her.

From early in ch. 30:

Very few days passed in which Mr. Collins did not walk to Rosings, and not many in which his wife did not think it necessary to go likewise; and till Elizabeth recollected that there might be other family livings to be disposed of, she could not understand the sacrifice of so many hours.

...or did you not intend to say we don't know whether her activities with Mr. Collins were only for Lizzy's benefit?
