Ethos, Logos, and Pathos in Chapter 11

Ethos : "'In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.'"

Logos: "' And of your infliction,' cried Elizabeth with energy. 'You have reduced him to his present state of poverty, comparative poverty. You have withheld the advantages, which you must know to have been designed for him. You have deprived the best years of his life, of that independence which was no less due than his desert. You have done all this! and yet you can treat the mention of his misfortunes with contempt and ridicule.'" (171)

Pathos: "As she pronounced these words, Mr. Darcy changed color; but the emotion was short, and he listened without attempting to interrupt her while se continued." (170)
