She displays the following qualities: She is beautiful (1 peter 3:3-5) - and yet understands that her beauty should not come from outward adornment‚ such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes.

Austen presents Mr Collins to be the most unwillingly comical character in the whole novel through his extreme idiocy and pomposity.
