I don't see why you think... Written by Karen 2L (5/5/2007 1:50 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Have you ever answered a rhetorical question?, penned by Margaret S

Elizabeth does not get Darcy's allusion to Twelfth Night? Shakespeare, of course, speaks of music being the food of love, not poetry, but I'm not seeing why you think Lizzy did not get the reference. What do you think she should have said to indicate that she got the joke?
