Jane: I thought you’d gone.

Rochester: I changed my mind or 1)rather the Ingram family changed their’s. Why are you crying?

Jane: I was thinking about having to leave 2)Thornfield.

Rochester: You’ve become quite 3)attached to that foolish little Adele, haven’t you? To that simple old Fairfax. You’d be sorry to 4)part with them.

Jane: Yes, sir!

Rochester: It’s always the way in this life. 5)As sooner as have you got settled in a pleasant resting place, you’re 6)summoned to move on.

Jane: I told you, sir, I shall be ready when the order comes.

Rochester: It has come now!

Jane: Then it’s settled?

Rochester: All settled! Even about your future situation.

Jane: You’ve found a place for me?

Rochester: Yes, Jane, I have...er... the west of Ireland. You’ll like Ireland, I think. There are such warm-hearted people there.

Jane: It’s a long way off, sir.

Rochester: From what, Jane?

Jane: From England and from Thornfield.

Rochester: Well?

Jane: And from you, sir.

Rochester: Yes, Jane, it’s a long way. When you get there, I shall probably never see you again. We’ve been good friends, Jane, haven’t we?

Jane: Yes, sir.

Rochester: Even good friends may be forced to part. Let’s make the most of what time has left us. Let us sit here in peace. Even though we should 7)be destined never to sit here again. Sometimes I have a 8)queer feeling 9)with regard to you, Jane. Especially when you’re near me as now. As if I had a string somewhere under my left 10)rib. Tightly and 11)inextricably 12)knotted to a similar string 13)situated in a 14)corresponding corner of your little 15)frame. And if we should have to be parted, that 16)cord of communion would be 17)snapped. Kind of a nervous 18)notion I should take to bleeding 19)inwardly. As for you, you’d forget me.

Jane: That I never will, sir. You know that. I see the 20)necessity of going, but it’s like looking on the necessity of death.

Rochester: Where do you see that necessity?

Jane: In your bride.

Rochester: What bride? I have no bride.

Jane: But you will have!

Rochester: Yes, I will. I will.

Jane: You think I could stay here to become nothing to you? Do you think because I’m poor and 21)obscure and 22)plain that I’m soulless and heartless? I have as much soul as you and fully as much heart. And if God had gifted me with wealth and beauty, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me as it is now for me to leave you. There, I’ve spoken my heart, now let me go.

Rochester: Jane. Jane... you strange almost 23)unearthly thing. It is you that I love as my own 24)flesh.

Jane: Don’t 25)mock...

Rochester: I’m over with Blanch

e. It’s you I want. Answer me, Jane, quickly. Say: “Edward, I’ll marry you.” Say it, Jane. Say it!

Jane: I want to read your face.

Rochester: Read quickly. Say, “Edward, I’ll marry you.”

Jane: Edward, I’ll marry you.

Rochester: God pardon me.
