Chapter 7, Jane’s Embarrassment “Of course they did; for I felt their eyes directed like burning-glasses against my scorched skin… What my sensations were, no language can describe; but just as they all rose, stifling my breath and constricting my throat, a girl came up and passed me: in passing, she lifter her eyes. What a strange light inspired them!”

Sonnets from the Portuguese 22: When our Two Souls by Elizabeth Barrett Browning “Let us stay Rather on earth, Beloved, -- where the unfit Contrarious moods of men recoil away And isolate pure spirits, and permit A place to stand and love in for a day, With darkness and the death-hour rounding it.”

9. Chapter 26, Jane & Mr. Rochester’s Wedding I looked on my cherished wishes, yesterday so blooming and glowing’ they lay stark, chill, livid corpses that could never revive…I looked at my love…it shivered in my heart, like a suffering child in a cold cradle; sickness and anguish had seized it; it could not seek Mr. Rochester’s arms…
