The eyes really impress Darcy; he considered his act of observing Elizabeth Bennet’s eyes results in a very great pleasure. “Your conjecture is totally wrong, I assure you. My mind was more agreeably engaged. I have been meditating on the very great pleasure which a pair of fine eyes in the face of a pretty woman can bestow.” 35-36 Later on, he even thinks that it is hard to portray Elizabeth’s picture and do complete justice to those fine eyes. “Oh yes.---Do let the portraits of your uncle and aunt Phillips be placed in the gallery at Pemberley. Put them next to your great- uncle the judge. They are in the same profession, you know, only in different lines.
