00:00Mr. Rochester had already departed and I did not know it.
00:29it's a mercy he wasn't burnt where he lay. it's a wonder the master wait nobody.
00:40there she sat. her commonplace features betraying no mark of a woman who had
00:46attempted murder. good morning miss. good morning. grace. I will put her to the test I
00:53thought. such absolute impenetrability is past comprehension. what has happened
01:01here? master was reading in bed last night. he fell asleep with the candle lit and
01:05the curtains got on fire. but luckily he woke just in time. and contrived to quench
01:10the flames with a jug of water. strange. did he wake no one? did no one hear the disturbance?
01:17the servants sleep too far off miss. mrs. fairfax's room and yours are the nearest.
01:25do you not hear anything? I should say you were a light sleeper miss.
01:31yes I did and at first I thought it was his dog pilot. pilot cannot laugh.
01:37it's hardly likely master would have laughed when in such danger miss.
01:41you must have been dreaming. I was not. you did not think to open your door and
01:47look into the gallery. she was cross-questioning me.
01:52I realized if she discovered I knew her guilt she could well play off some of her
01:57malignancy upon my person. on the contrary I bolted my door. you do not always do
02:03that. hitherto I have not. I was not aware of any danger to be dreaded.
02:08but in future I shall. a wise precaution miss.
02:14this neighborhood is as quiet as any I've known.
02:17and I've never heard of the hall being attacked by robbers.
02:20though there are hundreds of pounds worth of plate here as is well known.
02:24but I have always thought it best to err on the safe side.
02:29and her door is soon fussed.
02:31her self-possession struck me dumb.
02:34such hypocrisy verged upon the miraculous.
02:38or the lunatic.
02:40ah grace. good morning miss Jane.
02:43grace the servants dinner is ready. are you coming down?
02:46no thank you ma'am.
02:48if cook will put my pint of porter and a bit of pudding on a tray
02:52I'll take it upstairs. Leah.
03:02you look flushed miss Jane.
03:04are you feverish?
03:06no. I'm perfectly well.
03:09grace pool told you of the fire?
03:11yes indeed she did.
03:13I thank providence mr. Rochester awoke in time.
03:22ah. the mist is cleared.
03:24he'll have a favorable day for his journey.
03:27journey?
03:28is mr. Rochester gone anywhere?
03:31I... I did not know he was out.
03:33he set off the moment he had breakfasted.
03:36he's gone to mr. Eshton's place.
03:38the Lees.
03:39ten miles beyond Millcote.
03:41quite a party is assembled there I believe.
03:44lord Ingram.
03:45sir George Lynn.
03:46do you expect him back tonight?
03:47no.
03:49nor tomorrow either.
03:51mr. Rochester is a general favorite in society.
03:56the ladies are very fond of him.
03:59though you would not think that his appearance was calculated to recommend him particularly in their eyes.
04:05there are ladies at the Lees.
04:07of course.
04:08there'll be um.
04:10mrs. Eshton and her three daughters.
04:12the honorable Blanche and Mary Ingram.
04:15Blanche is the belle of every ball in the county.
04:19she's greatly admired.
04:22oh indeed.
04:23she's so tall so graceful.
04:26raven hair with eyes as brilliant as her jewels.
04:30and so accomplished.
04:32she plays and sings superbly.
04:35and miss Ingram is not yet married?
04:38no no of course she could not be.
04:41are you sure you're not feverish miss Jane?
04:44no.
04:46I wonder no wealthy gentleman has taken a fancy to her.
04:50mr. Rochester for instance.
04:53he is rich is he not?
04:54oh yes.
04:56but there is a considerable difference in age.
04:58mr. Rochester is nearly 40.
05:01miss Ingram but 25.
05:03ah vous voilĂ mesdames.
05:05le déjeuner est servi.
05:07vous pouvez venir.
05:11already I pronounced judgment upon myself.
05:14a greater fool than Jane Eyre had never breathed the breath of life.
05:19to have imagined myself a favorite of his.
05:21I should not be surprised if mr. Rochester went straight from the Lees to London.
05:25and from there to the continent.
05:27he has often quitted Thornfield quite as abruptly
05:29and not shown his face here again for a year.
05:32j'ai faim moi.
05:35had a more fantastic idiot than I ever surfeited herself on sweet lies.
05:40or swallowed poison as if it were nectar.
05:43to have derived pleasure from the occasional equivocal tokens of preference shown by a gentleman to a dependent.
05:52a governess.
05:54to have imagined love where there was mere carelessness.
05:58to let it kindle.
05:59I made a vow.
06:04I made a vow.
06:06and in a fortnight I had accomplished the wholesome discipline to which I forced my feelings to submit.
06:12the sentence I pronounced upon myself for my blind puppyish imaginings towards mr. Rochester
06:19was to paint two portraits.
06:21one of...
06:31a governess.
06:33disconnected.
06:35poor.
06:36and plain.
06:43and the other.
06:45this other I shall call Blanche.
06:47an accomplished lady of wreck.
07:11mademoiselle, mademoiselle.
07:12they are come.
07:13monsieur de Rochester and all the ladies.
07:15Adele, how many times have I told you to knock?
07:18mais ils sont arrivés.
07:21oh very well.
07:23we'll go and see them coming from the gallery.
07:30oh it is just as I remember it.
07:33clearly you do not believe in change, signor Eduardo.
07:36neither of the heart's affections nor of places, Donna Bianca.
07:38I must go and see them.
07:39no a dare.
07:40no a dare.
07:41oh it's spacious.
07:42mrs. Fairfax, mrs. Eshton.
07:44the honourable miss Blanche Ingram.
07:45it's a pleasure to see you again miss Ingram, mrs. Eshton.
07:47my housekeeper will show you to your rooms.
07:49come on gals.
07:53oh there you are miss Jane.
07:54oh what are to do?
07:55the house hasn't seen such company for years.
07:57oh I'm fashed as they say.
08:01still now that they are all gone down I can rest a little.
08:08you are requested in the drawing room after dinner.
08:10and Adele.
08:11I?
08:12I need not go surely.
08:14well I did observe to mr. Rochester that you are unused to company.
08:16yes indeed I am.
08:17and that I did not think you would like appearing before so gay a party.
08:20but he replied in his quick way you know nonsense.
08:25if she objects.
08:27if she objects.
08:29I need not go surely.
08:31well I did observe to mr. Rochester that you are unused to company.
08:35yes indeed I am.
08:37and that I did not think you would like appearing before so gay a party.
08:40but he replied in his quick way you know nonsense.
08:43if she objects tell her it is my particular wish.
08:46and if she resists say that I will come and fetch her.
08:52shall you be there?
08:54oh no. I pleaded off and he agreed.
08:57but I have to go.
08:59he was determined you should.
09:03if you wish to avoid making a formal entrance
09:05which is quite the most disagreeable part of the business
09:08you must slip into the drawing room while they are all at dinner
09:11and choose your seat in any nook you like.
09:21no Louisa I never liked him one jot.
09:23you did.
09:24no I did not like him. he's a coarse fellow.
09:26she did did she not mama?
09:28who dear?
09:29why John Reed of Gates said did you not hear mama?
09:31papa said that we...
09:32oh my dear I stopped listening to your father years ago.
09:35there was no restraining hand on the indulgences of the young duke.
09:41the bachelor's rustic drawing room.
09:44it seems mrs dent you have not sufficiently studied the science of botany.
09:48not at all I simply like flowers.
09:51especially wild ones.
09:53c'est la bienvenue madame.
09:55et toi ma petite.
09:57quelle jolie robe.
09:59but mrs dent.
10:00but mrs dent.
10:01how can one like what one is too ignorant to make?
10:04blanche you're confusing mrs dent.
10:06no but how can one? I must hear.
10:08well I...
10:09I cannot tell.
10:10one would know if one referred a lily to a dandelion.
10:17isn't she a love of the child?
10:19quite a little puppet.
10:21and such a pretty dress.
10:23merci beaucoup madame.
10:25I confess I regarded blanche ingram with special interest.
10:31first to see whether she resembled at all the imagined miniature I painted of her.
10:36in many points she did.
10:39and secondly
10:40it will out
10:42to discover if she was such as I should fancy likely to suit mr rochester's taste.
10:47I could not tell
10:49but to me she appeared remarkably self-conscious.
10:52where are the gentlemen?
10:55I cannot stand female company.
10:57so insipid.
10:58mr rochester said they would be out of men.
11:01a splendid piece of horseflesh.
11:04you refuse to wager ingram?
11:06well at such odds who would not?
11:08miss eshton
11:10I guess where your colour has risen.
11:12has miss louisa been trailing you?
11:13oh a little she likes to...
11:14give thanks you've not fallen prey to my sister blanche.
11:17she's a cruel tease.
11:19an ill considered reform so which I fear the tories will lift to repent.
11:23what say you rochester?
11:24I detest politics.
11:26the calculated clashings of opposed party interests.
11:29rutting stags battling for the doubtful favours of a docile public.
11:33senor eduardo?
11:34donna bianca
11:39I thought you detested children?
11:41usually yes.
11:42but how did you come to take upon such a little doll as that?
11:46where did you pick her up?
11:48she was left on my hands.
11:51you should have sent her to school.
11:53I could not afford to donna bianca.
11:55really?
11:56no you tease.
11:57I suppose you have a governess for her.
12:00I saw a person just now.
12:02has she gone?
12:06no she's still there.
12:08I would have thought it quite as expensive.
12:10I've not considered the subject.
12:12no you men never do.
12:13oh you should hear mamma on the subject of governesses.
12:16Mary and I have had a dozen.
12:18half of them detestable and the rest ridiculous.
12:21all incubi were they not mamma?
12:23did you speak my own?
12:24of governesses mamma.
12:26oh don't dearest.
12:27I've suffered martyrdoms from their incompetency and caprice.
12:31we do have miss adele's governess here with us.
12:35t'en pis.
12:36better hear what she will.
12:37it may do her good.
12:39I'm a judge of physiognomy.
12:41and in her I see all the faults of her class.
12:45and what are they madam?
12:46ask Blanche.
12:47she's as good a judge as I am.
12:49I have only one word to say of the whole tribe.
12:52they're a nuisance.
12:53lachrymose low-spirited creatures.
12:55I see.
12:57senor Eduardo.
12:59I move the introduction of a new topic.
13:01and I seconded Donna Bianca.
13:04are you in good voice tonight?
13:06if you command it.
13:09here then is a corsair song.
13:15know that I dote on corsairs.
13:19banditti.
13:21any man with the devil in him.
13:25oh young men of today.
13:26they're such puny things.
13:28they're not fit to stir a step beyond past park gates.
13:31nor go so far without mamma's permission.
13:35creatures so absorbed with care of their own pretty looks.
13:39as if a man had anything to do with beauty.
13:41as if loveliness were not the special prerogative of woman.
13:47I grant an ugly woman is a blot on the face of creation.
13:51but as to the gentlemen.
13:52let them possess only strength to hunt shoot and fight.
13:56the rest is not worth a fillip.
13:58do you know senor Eduardo?
14:04how could I not since it was you who taught me it?
14:07then sing.
14:08conspirito.
14:09my boat's by the tower my bark's in the bay
14:18and both must be gone ere the dawn of the day
14:22the moon's in her shroud but to guide thee afar
14:25on the deck of the darings a love lighted star.
14:29then wake lady wake
14:31I am waiting for thee
14:33and this night or never
14:35my bride thou shalt be
14:37then wake lady wake
14:39I am waiting for thee
14:41and this night
14:43or never
14:45my bride thou shalt be
14:55Jane?
15:06why did you not come and speak to me?
15:09you seemed engaged sir
15:11I did not wish to disturb you
15:14what have you been doing during my absence?
15:17nothing in particular
15:18been teaching Adele as usual
15:20and getting a good deal paler than you were
15:22as I saw at first sight
15:25did you take cold that night you half drowned me?
15:28not in the least
15:30return to the drawing room
15:31you're deserting too early
15:33I'm tired sir
15:34and depressed
15:36I'm not
15:37but I affirm you are
15:39so much depressed that a few more words would bring tears
15:43indeed they're there shining
15:46if I had time I would know what this means
15:49tonight I excuse you
15:51but not tomorrow nor the next night
15:53now go and send Sophie for Adele
15:58good night
16:09despite all intentions
16:12all the dictates of common sense
16:13I had learned to love Mr. Rochester
16:19that he would marry Blanche Ingram was certain however
16:22though why was less so
16:24for family perhaps political reasons
16:28but he had not given her his love
16:30that I knew
16:31knowledge has no power to lessen pain
16:50we should have taken our excursion
16:52to view a few wretched gypsies
16:58in the rain my lily flower
17:01well anything rather than this tedium
17:04why don't you play billiards with the others dearest
17:06please mama
17:20a Mr. Mason has arrived ma'am
17:22well if he's a gentleman show him in
17:25it appears I come at an inopportune time madam when my friend Mr. Rochester is away on business
17:37he returns tonight
17:39I trust I may presume therefore to install myself here till he returns
17:43I'm sure you may
17:44I come from a very long journey
17:45from Spanish town in Jamaica
17:47my daughter Miss Ingram
17:49give her sir
17:50we must dress for dinner

18:48a real tinkler
18:49black as a crock
18:50go blockhead
18:51Miss Ingram
18:52I think perhaps I ought to look in upon her before any of the ladies go
18:56but the footman said she would see no gentleman
18:58and of the ladies only the young and single
19:00even so
19:01even so I am determined to hear my fortune told
19:03had we gone out this afternoon I would have anyway

19:12mmm
19:13but I will have my way
19:14oh dearest you
19:15oh will you go now
19:16for my part I'd never dare venture
19:21something of a masquerade I suspected
19:24from the moment this gypsy woman's presence was announced
19:28and did Rochester like the West Inders
19:31oh
19:33scarcely at all
19:35burning heats and the rainy seasons all
19:37disagreed with his constitution
19:38but this was some years back you say
19:40he'd only just come of age yes

19:49I've seen a vagabond
19:51she has practiced her trade in hackneyed fashion
19:54my whim is gratified
19:56and now I suggest that Mr. Eshton and Colonel Dent put her out
19:59oh

20:24oh I am sure she is not quite right
20:27if you please miss
20:30the gypsy declares that there's another single lady who's not been to her yet
20:34I thought it must be you

21:01the eye
21:02is favourable
21:04it is soft and full of feeling
21:07as to the mouth
21:08it would like to laugh more
21:10indeed it ought to
21:13while the forehead declares
21:15reason sits firm and holds the reins
21:18she will not let her feelings burst away
21:20and hurry her to wild chasms
21:23you do not speak like a gypsy mother
21:27you have no faith
21:29your impudence said so
21:31your fortune is yet doubtful
21:34chance has meted you a measure of happiness
21:37it depends on yourself to stretch out your hand and take it up

22:15no
22:16you did not act the character of a gypsy with me
22:19did I not?
22:21who's then? my own?
22:22no
22:23some unaccountable one
22:25hmm

22:29that you knew everything about them
22:30which of course you do
22:32and Miss Ingram

22:44so we are free
22:46oh but Miss Ingram is expecting your return from business this evening
22:50what if she does?
22:53Mr Rochester
22:55are you aware that a stranger has arrived since you left this morning?
22:59what stranger?
23:00I was expecting no one
23:01is he gone?
23:02no
23:03he said he has known you for many years
23:05and would install himself here till you returned
23:07the devil he did
23:08did you give his name?
23:10as Mason sir
23:13Mason?
23:15he comes from the West Indies
23:16from Jamaica I think
23:20Mason
23:24oh you will sir
23:27oh Jane
23:29Jane
23:31lean on me sir
23:35as I did before
23:38Mason
23:41where is he now?
23:43in the drawing room sir
23:44and the others what are they doing?
23:46laughing and talking
23:47they don't look grave or mysterious
23:50as if they'd heard something strange
23:52no
23:54they are full of jest and gaiety
23:57Jane
24:00if all my guests
24:02came in a body and spat on me what would you do?
24:05I would turn them out of the room if I could sir
24:08and if I went to them and they looked at me coldly
24:11whispered and sneered behind my back
24:13and one by one dropped off and left me
24:14what then?
24:16would you go with them?
24:18I should have more pleasure in staying with you
24:21to comfort me?
24:22as well as I could
24:24and if they laid you under a ban for adhering to me
24:27I should care nothing for that
24:29you dare censure for my sake
24:30for my sake
24:32as I would for any friend
24:34as you would too I'm sure sir
24:40go back now
24:42step quietly after Mason
24:44whisper that I'm returned and wish to see him here
24:46then leave us
24:49yes sir
25:00well dig?
25:18you bird of illoman
25:30I had forgotten to draw my curtain which I usually did
25:44the consequence was that when the moon
25:47which was full and bright
25:49came in her course to that space in the sky opposite my casement
25:53her glorious gaze roused me
25:56in the dead of night
26:00her disc was silver white
26:03crystal clear
26:05it was beautiful
26:07but too solemn
26:11my pulse stopped
26:13my heart stood still
26:15my stretched arm was paralysed
26:20the cry was not renewed
26:22but what being could have delivered such an utterance
26:25utterance
26:27yes did you hear that?
26:29keep it calm my dear I will raise what you say
26:31I think it came for abandonation over there
26:33never mind dear Mr. Rochester will tell us what it was
26:35I expect it was nothing
26:37where the devil is Rochester I cannot find him in his room
26:39where can he hear?
26:42here be composed all of you
26:45what awful event has taken place
26:48speak let us know what has happened
26:50all's right all's right
26:51but that cry
26:53a mere rehearsal of much ado about nothing
26:57ladies keep off or I shall wax dangerous
27:01a servant
27:03has had a nightmare that is all
27:06she's a nervous excitable person
27:09she construed her dream
27:11into an apparition and has taken a fit with fright
27:14now I must see you all back to your rooms
27:17for until the house is settled she cannot be properly looked after
27:20gentlemen have the goodness to set the ladies the example
27:24Miss Ingram
27:26I'm sure you'll not fail in evincing superiority to idle terrors
27:35good night
27:36a servant's dream was merely an invention Mr. Rochester had framed to pacify his guests
27:58I waited for I knew not what
28:01for it seemed to me that some event must follow that strange cry
28:05up and dressed
28:06oh I thought I might be wanted sir
28:21yes come this way
28:23no wait

29:47it's a mere scratch. bear up man.
30:17salts.
30:28I'm going to fetch the surgeon myself dig.
30:31you'll be removed from here before morning.
30:33Jane? sir?
30:35I must leave you alone with this gentleman.
30:38for an hour maybe two.
30:40expunge the blood as it returns. if he faints use your salts.
30:44and don't speak to him.
30:47dick.
30:49it will be on peril of your life if you attempt to speak.
30:52open your mouth say one word and I shall not answer for the consequences.
31:00remember no conversation.
31:09what crime was this that lived incarnate in this sequestered mansion
31:14and could neither be expelled nor subdued by its owner.
31:18what creature was it that
31:21masked in an ordinary woman's face and shape
31:24uttered the voice now of a mocking demon
31:27then of a carrion seeking bird of prey
31:30and hardly separated from you but by a single door.
31:33and this quiet stranger so commonplace
31:36so commonplace
31:38how was he involved in the web of horror?
31:40not only cut by a knife but teeth marks.
31:57she...
32:01she bit me.
32:03she...
32:04worried me like a...
32:05like a tigress.
32:06you should have grappled with her at once.
32:10Jane, fetch his cloak.
32:12hurry, Carter.
32:13hurry!
32:14I must have him away from here before the house stirs.
32:19she seemed so...
32:20so quiet at first.
32:21I warned you it was folly to attempt the interview tonight and alone.
32:28she sucked the blood.
32:30she said she drained my heart.
32:32courage, man.
32:33never mind her gibberish.
32:34Carter.
32:35ready.
32:45I shall ride over in a day or two to see how he gets on.
32:47right.
32:51Rochester.
32:53let her be taken care of.
32:55even if she...
32:56I do my best.
32:57I have done and I will do.
32:58away with you.
33:05Lord to God there was an end of all this.
33:09Jane.
33:11sir.
33:12come with me.
33:17will you have a flower?
33:39thank you, sir.
33:47come with me.
33:54were you frightened when I left you alone with Mason?
33:56very.
33:57I feared lest some...
33:59someone come from the inner room.
34:01but I'd locked the door.
34:03I should have been a careless shepherd if I'd left a lamb.
34:06my pet lamb.
34:08so near a wolf's den unguarded.
34:12will Grace Poole continue to live here, sir?
34:14yes.
34:15and the danger you feared last night from Mr. Mason.
34:18is that now gone?
34:19not till he's out of England.
34:22to live for me is to stand upon a crater crust, Jane.
34:26but Mr. Mason seems a man easily led.
34:28he would not defy you, surely?
34:30no.
34:32not knowingly hurt me.
34:34but unintentionally he might.
34:36one careless word, Jane,
34:37could deprive me if not of life
34:40yet forever of happiness.
34:42but tell him so, sir.
34:44if I could do that, simpleton, where would the danger be?
34:53you look puzzled.
34:55I will puzzle you further.
34:58you...
35:00you're my friend, are you not?
35:03I'd like to serve you, sir, and obey you.
35:06in all that is right.
35:08yes, in all that is right, yes.
35:11you're implacable, Jane.
35:13properly so.
35:15but suppose you're no longer a girl,
35:18well-reared and disciplined,
35:20but a wild boy as I was,
35:22indulged from childhood upwards.
35:25imagine yourself in a remote,
35:27foreign land.
35:29conceive that you commit there a capital error.
35:32mind, I do not say crime.
35:34my word is error.
35:36the results of which
35:38dog you all your life.
35:40suppose
35:43twenty world-weary years after
35:45you discover a stranger
35:47whose goodness and true qualities revive you.
35:51regenerate you.
35:54what then, sir?
35:56yes,
35:58what then?
36:04is the wandering and sinful but repentant man
36:07justified in overleaping an obstacle of custom?
36:11a mere conventional impediment
36:14in order to attach to him this
36:17gentle gracious stranger
36:20who can work his reformation?
36:22I think not, sir.
36:24salvation should never depend on a fellow creature
36:27but on God.
36:28but God ordains the instrument.
36:32and I believe
36:34I have found the instrument for my cure in
36:38in Miss Ingram.
36:41don't you think if I married her
36:44she'd regenerate me with a vengeance?
36:46she's a rare one.
36:48is she not, Jane?
36:51you say nothing?
36:53yes, sir.
36:55hmm.
36:56a deliberate silence, I see.
37:01bless me, there's Ingram and Lynn up already.
37:04go in by the shrubbery
37:07through the wicked.
37:09Mason got the start of you all this morning.
37:12he was gone before sunrise.
37:13yes?
37:25I dare say you hardly remember me, miss.
37:28your name is Leevan.
37:30I lived coachman with Mrs. Reid at Gateshead All.
37:33why, Robert, I remember you well.
37:36how are you?
37:37I live there still.
37:39I remember you used to give me rides sometimes
37:41on Miss Jordiana's pony.
37:43oh, and how is Bessie?
37:45you are married to Bessie?
37:46yes, miss, she's very hearty, thank you.
37:49and Mrs. Reid?
37:52I hope no one is dead.
37:53Mr. John died yesterday was a week.
37:59in London.
38:03and how does his mother bear it?
38:07well, that's why I've come, miss.
38:10terrible news gave her a stroke.
38:13she was three days without speaking.
38:16but last Tuesday she asked for you, miss.
38:19for me?
38:20I don't expect calling your name.
38:23Mr. John's death was a suicide, miss, you see.
38:27it ruined his health and the estate.
38:30Mrs. Reid had been ill for some time before he...
38:34with the worry of it.
38:37she insists you come, miss.
38:40bring Jane Eyre.
38:41I must speak with her.
38:43keep saying it.
38:46go.
38:48where to go?
38:49Gateshead Hall in Derbyshire, sir.
38:51why?
38:53to see a sick lady who has sent for me.
38:56her name is Reid.
38:58Reid of Gateshead?
39:00there was a magistrate called...
39:01it is his widow, sir.
39:03mr. Reid was my uncle.
39:05my mother's brother.
39:06the deuce he was.
39:08you always said you had no relations?
39:11none that would own me.
39:13mr. Reid died and his wife cast me off.
39:15why?
39:16oh, because I was poor and burdensome.
39:19she disliked me.
39:21then leave her where she is.
39:26it's nonsense, Jane, to go to such a person who casts you off.
39:30but that was long ago, sir, and she is dying, they think.
39:33her son, John Reid, committed suicide a week ago.
39:35ah, John Reid, yes.
39:37ingram was saying only yesterday.
39:39one of the various rascals in town.
39:42sir, I could not be easy to neglect what may be mrs. Reid's last wishes.
39:47how long will you stay?
39:50promise me not more than a week.
39:53I'd better not pass my word, sir.
39:55I might be obliged to break it.
39:57you'll come back.
39:59you'll not be induced under any pretext to take up residence with her.
40:04no, sir.
40:05i should think not.
40:07who goes with you?
40:09you cannot travel so far alone.
40:11mrs. Reid has sent her coachman.
40:13is he to be trusted?
40:14he's been with the family ten years, sir.
40:18well...
40:20when do you want to go?
40:22only tomorrow.
40:25you'll need money.
40:27I've given you no salary yet.
40:30how much have you in the world, Jane?
40:35five shillings, sir.
40:36there you are, signor eduardo.
40:50i insist you play.
40:52uno momento, donna bianca.
40:54surely you can deal with that person later, mr rochester.
40:58i am engaged, miss ingram.
41:01i shall come to you when i'm at liberty.
41:04his manner scarcely seemed that of a loving, prospective bridegroom.
41:16here.
41:17take your wages.
41:19but that is fifty pounds, sir. you owe me but fifteen.
41:23i have no change.
41:25i don't want any change, you know that.
41:27i will not take it, sir.
41:28obstinate.
41:29yes.
41:30right.
41:33i better not give you all at once. you may stay away three months.
41:36there is ten. is that enough?
41:38plenty, sir.
41:40but now you owe me five.
41:45come back for it then.
41:48i will be your banker.
41:50sir, there is another matter of business.
41:56there is?
41:57what?
41:59you have as good as informed me that you're shortly to be married.
42:02yes.
42:04in that case, i think adele ought to go to school.
42:09to keep her out of my bride's way?
42:12yes, there's sense in the suggestion.
42:15yes, adele must go to school.
42:19and you, of course, must march straight to the devil.
42:25i hope not, sir.
42:27but i must seek another situation.
42:30somewhere.
42:32of course.
42:33perhaps i should advertise, sir.
42:35you shall walk up the pyramids of egypt.
42:37at your peril, you advertise.
42:40i wish i'd only given you a sovereign.
42:41give me back nine pounds, jane. i have a use for it.
42:44and so have i, sir.
42:46you little niggered.
42:48just let me look at the money again.
42:51no.
42:53you are not to be trusted.
42:55hmm.
43:01jane,
43:03promise me not to advertise
43:06and i will seek a situation for you.
43:09is that a bargain?
43:12yes, sir.
43:14if you and your turn will promise that
43:17both adele and i shall be safe out of this house
43:21before your bride enters it.
43:25very well.
43:28shall you come down after dinner tonight?
43:30no, sir. i must prepare for the journey.
43:32then we must say goodbye now.
43:34for a little while.
43:36yes.
43:37i suppose so.
43:38and how do people perform that ceremony?
43:41teach me.
43:42i'm not quite up to it.
43:44they say farewell.
43:45or any other form they prefer.
43:49then say it.
43:51farewell, mr rochester.
43:53for the present.
43:55and what must i say?
43:57the same.
44:00farewell, miss eyre.
44:02for the present.
44:04is that all?
44:06yes.
44:07it seems stingy to my notions
44:10and dry and unfriendly.
44:13if one shook hands.
44:16no, that will not content me either.
44:19farewell, jane.
44:22your back is to the door, sir.
44:31so it is.
44:48jane eyre.
44:50jane eyre.

44:54i am.
44:56oh.
44:57fiend of a child.
45:01deceitful.
45:03i was glad to get out of the house.
45:06what did they do with her at lowood?
45:09fever broke out there.
45:11many pupils died.
45:13she did not die.
45:15oh no.
45:17i wish she had.
45:19i wish she had.
45:22strange wish, aunt reed.
45:24aunt?
45:26who calls me aunt?
45:28i do. jane eyre.

45:35she's dead.
45:37i sent she was dead.
45:40those eyes.
45:43that forehead.
45:45you're like jane eyre.
45:50i wanted to see her.
45:57oh.
45:59i cannot move a limb.
46:03i wronged jane eyre.
46:05are you she?
46:08you're like her.
46:10yes aunt i am.
46:12an unnatural child.
46:15go to my dressing case.
46:18there's a letter.
46:22read it.
46:24read it to me.
46:29madam.
46:31will you have the goodness to send me the address of my niece?
46:36jane eyre.
46:38it is my intention to write shortly and desire her to come to Madeira.
46:42providence has blessed my labors to secure a competency and...
46:46as i am unmarried and childless.
46:49i wish to adopt jane eyre during my life and bequeath her at my death whatever i have to leave.
46:55i am madam.
46:57most sincerely yours.
47:00john eyre.
47:02Madeira.
47:04oh but why did i not hear of this?
47:07it is dated three years back.
47:09i disliked you too fixedly.
47:11the fury you turned on me
47:14when you declared you abhorred me the worst of anyone in the world.
47:18but i was a child.
47:20so that i wrote that you were dead.
47:22dead of the fever at lowood school.
47:25now act as you please.
47:29expose my full soot if you will.
47:32you
47:34were born i think
47:37to be my torment.
47:40many a time as a child i would have been happy to love you.
47:44now i long to be reconciled. kiss me aren't we?
47:47never.
47:49i hate jane eyre.
47:51a fiend of a child.
47:55you should be dead.
48:01and then
48:03my falsehood
48:08would come
48:10true.
48:13poor suffering woman.
48:16it was too late for her to change her habitual frame of mind.
48:20living she hated me.
48:22and she died hating me.
48:27a strange and solemn object was that corpse to me.
48:31her brow and lineaments wore yet the impress of her inexorable soul.
48:35i gazed on it with gloom and pain.
48:40a somber tearless dismay at the fearfulness of death in such a form.
48:45and to think how desperately i had longed for love from her.
48:49for love from her.
48:50for love from her.
48:51here in the light of her.
48:52here in the light of her.
48:53i love you..
48:54here in the light of her.
48:56it's coming to me.
48:57and to be there with the hot sauce for the whole ladies and women.
48:59i love you...
