A Little Help Please.

Ok i graduate high school here in a couple weeks and my teacher told me that in order to graduate i had to take this correspondent class. well i got it about two weeks ago and i cant answer this one question for Pride and Prejudice.

1. After Lydia interrupts Collin's reading of Fordyce's Sermons, Collins says he "should never resent her behavior as any affront"

A) Compare this to what he writes after Lydia elopes.

I would have to say that Lydia's interruption affected himself alone so he could forgive the insult--his judmentalism on Lydia later would be a reflection on his pastoral duties dealing with rebuking sin that effected OTHERS even though he was heavy handed about it. Just an opinion.
