Read the quotation from Chapter 22: "I should regard the threatened fate as unavoidable. But death was no evil to me if the loss of Elizabeth were
balanced with it, and I therefore, with a contented and even cheerful countenance, agreed with my father that
if my cousin would consent, the ceremony should take place in ten days, and thus put, as I imagined, the seal
to my fate."
How are the themes of destiny and responsibility developed in this quotation?
