^Benefactress benefactress 院said I inwardly此 they all call Mrs。 Reed my benefactress察if so察a benefactress is a disagreeable thing。 ̄
^Do you say your prayers night and morning拭院continued my interrogator。
^Yes察sir。 ̄
^Do you read your Bible拭
^Sometimes。 ̄
^With pleasure拭Are you fond of it拭
^I like Revelations察and the book of Daniel察and Genesis and Samuel察and a little bit of Exodus察and some parts of Kings and Chronicles察and Job and Jonah。 ̄
^And the Psalms拭I hope you like them拭
^No察sir。 ̄
^No拭oh察shocking I have a little boy察younger than you察who knows six Psalms by heart此and when you ask him which he would rather have察a gingerbread´nut to eat or a verse of a Psalm to learn察he says此 Oh the verse of a Psalm angels sing Psalms察 says he察 I wish to be a little angel here below察 he then gets two nuts in repense for his infant piety。 ̄
^Psalms are not interesting察院I remarked。
^That proves you have a wicked heart察and you must pray to God to change it此to give you a new and clean one此to take away your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh。 ̄
I was about to propound a question察touching the manner in which that operation of changing my heart was to be performed察when Mrs。 Reed interposed察telling me to sit down察she then proceeded to carry on the conversation herself。
^Mr。 Brocklehurst察I believe I intimated in the letter which I wrote to you three weeks ago察that this little girl has not quite the character and disposition I could wish此should you admit her into Lowood school察I should be glad if the superintendent and teachers were requested to keep a strict eye on her察and察above all察to guard against her worst fault察a tendency to deceit。 I mention this in your hearing察Jane察that you may not attempt to impose on Mr。 Brocklehurst。 ̄
Well might I dread察well might I dislike Mrs。 Reed察for it was her nature to wound me cruelly察never was I happy in her presence察however carefully I obeyed察however strenuously I strove to please her察my efforts were still repulsed and repaid by such sentences as the above。 Now察uttered before a stranger察the accusation cut me to the heart察I dimly perceived that she was already obliterating hope from the new phase of existence which she destined me to enter察I felt察though I could not have expressed the feeling察that she was sowing aversion and unkindness along my future path察I saw myself transformed under Mr。 Brocklehurst¨s eye into an artful察noxious child察and what could I do to remedy the injury
^Nothing察indeed察院thought I察as I struggled to repress a sob察and hastily wiped away some tears察the impotent evidences of my anguish。
^Deceit is察indeed察a sad fault in a child察院said Mr。 Brocklehurst察 it is akin to falsehood察and all liars will have their portion in the lake burning with fire and brimstone察she shall察however察be watched察Mrs。 Reed。 I will speak to Miss Temple and the teachers。 ̄
^I should wish her to be brought up in a manner suiting her prospects察院continued my benefactress察 to be made useful察to be kept humble此as for the vacations察she will察with your permission察spend them always at Lowood。 ̄
^Your decisions are perfectly judicious察madam察院returned Mr。 Brocklehurst。 ^Humility is a Christian grace察and one peculiarly appropriate to the pupils of Lowood察I察therefore察direct that especial care shall be bestowed on its cultivation amongst them。 I have studied how best to mortify in them the worldly sentiment of pride察and察only the other day察I had a pleasing proof of my success。 My second daughter察Augusta察went with her mama to visit the school察and on her return she exclaimed此 Oh察dear papa察how quiet and plain all the girls at Lowood look察with their hair bed behind their ears察and their long pinafores察and those little holland pockets outside their frocks!they are almost like poor people¨s children and察 said she察 they looked at my dress and mama¨s察as if they had never seen a silk gown before。¨ ̄
^This is the state of things I quite approve察院returned Mrs。 Reed察 had I sought all England over察I could scarcely have found a system more exactly fitting a child like Jane Eyre。 Consistency察my dear Mr。 Brocklehurst察I advocate consistency in all things。 ̄
^Consistency察madam察is the first of Christian duties察and it has been observed in every arrangement connected with the establishment of Lowood此plain fare察simple attire察unsophisticated acmodations察hardy and active habits察such is the order of the day in the house and its inhabitants。 ̄
^Quite right察sir。 I may then depend upon this child being received as a pupil at Lowood察and there being trained in conformity to her position and prospects拭
^Madam察you may此she shall be placed in that nursery of chosen plants察and I trust she will show herself grateful for the inestimable privilege of her election。 ̄
^I will send her察then察as soon as possible察Mr。 Brocklehurst察for察I assure you察I feel anxious to be relieved of a responsibility that was being too irksome。 ̄
^No doubt察no doubt察madam察and now I wish you good morning。 I shall return to Brocklehurst Hall in the course of a week or two此my good friend察the Archdeacon察will not permit me to leave him sooner。 I shall send Miss Temple notice that she is to expect a new girl察so that there will he no difficulty about receiving her。 Good´bye。 ̄
^Good´bye察Mr。 Brocklehurst察remember me to Mrs。 and Miss Brocklehurst察and to Augusta and Theodore察and Master Broughton Brocklehurst。 ̄
^I will察madam。 Little girl察here is a book entitled the Child¨s Guide察read it with prayer察especially that part containing `An account of the awfully sudden death of Martha G !察a naughty child addicted to falsehood and deceit。¨ ̄
With these words Mr。 Brocklehurst put into my hand a thin pamphlet sewn in a cover察and having rung for his carriage察he departed。
Mrs。 Reed and I were left alone此some minutes passed in silence察she was sewing察I was watching her。 Mrs。 Reed might be at that time some six or seven and thirty察she was a woman of robust frame察square´shouldered and strong´limbed察not tall察and察though stout察not obese此she had a somewhat large face察the under jaw being much developed and very solid察her brow was low察her chin large and prominent察mouth and nose sufficiently regular察under her light eyebrows glimmered an eye devoid of ruth察her skin was dark and opaque察her hair nearly flaxen察her constitution was sound as a bell!illness never came near her察she was an exact察clever manager察her household and tenantry were thoroughly under her control察her children only at times defied her authority and laughed it to scorn察she dressed well察and had a presence and port calculated to set off handsome attire。
Sitting on a low stool察a few yards from her arm´chair察I examined her figure察I perused her features。 In my hand I held the tract containing the sudden death of the Liar察to which narrative my attention had been pointed as to an appropriate warning。 What had just passed察what Mrs。 Reed had said concerning me to Mr。 Brocklehurst察the whole tenor of their conversation察was recent察raw察and stinging in my mind察I had felt every word as acutely as I had heard it plainly察and a passion of resentment fomented now within me。
Mrs。 Reed looked up from her work察her eye settled on mine察her fingers at the same time suspended their nimble movements。
^Go out of the room察return to the nursery察院was her mandate。 My look or something else must have struck her as offensive察for she spoke with extreme though suppressed irritation。 I got up察I went to the door察I came back again察I walked to the window察across the room察then close up to her。
Speak I must此I had been trodden on severely察and must turn此but how拭What strength had I to dart retaliation at my antagonist拭I gathered my energies and launched them in this blunt sentence!
^I am not deceitful此if I were察I should say I loved you察but I declare I do not love you此I dislike you the worst of anybody in the world except John Reed察and this book about the liar察you may give to your girl察Georgiana察for it is she who tells lies察and not I。 ̄
Mrs。 Reed¨s hands still lay on her work inactive此her eye of ice continued to dwell freezingly on mine。
^What more have you to say拭院she asked察rather in the tone in which a person might address an opponent of adult age than such as is ordinarily used to a child。
That eye of hers察that voice stirred every antipathy I had。 Shaking from head to foot察thrilled with ungovernable excitement察I continued!
^I am glad you are no relation of mine此I will never call you aunt again as long as I live。 I will never e to see you when I am grown up察and if any one asks me how I liked you察and how you treated me察I will say the very thought of you makes me sick察and that you treated me with miserable cruelty。 ̄
^How dare you affirm that察Jane Eyre拭
^How dare I察Mrs。 Reed拭How dare I拭Because it is the truth。 You think I have no feelings察and that I can do without one bit of love or kindness察but I cannot live so此and you have no pity。 I shall remember how you thrust me back!roughly and violently thrust me back!into the red´room察and locked me up there察to my dying day察though I was in agony察though I cried out察while suffocating with distress察 Have mercy Have mercy察Aunt Reed  And that punishment you made me suffer because your wicked boy struck me!knocked me down for nothing。 I will tell anybody who asks me questions察this exact tale。 People think you a good woman察but you are bad察hard´ hearted。 You are deceitful 
Ere I had finished this reply察my soul began to expand察to exult察with the strangest sense of freedom察of triumph察I ever felt。 It seemed as if an invisible bond had burst察and that I had struggled out into unhoped´for liberty。 Not without cause was this sentiment此Mrs。 Reed looked frightened察her work had slipped from her knee察she was lifting up her hands察rocking herself to and fro察and even twisting her face as if she would cry。
^Jane察you are under a mistake此what is the matter with you拭Why do you tremble so violently拭Would you like to drink some water拭
^No察Mrs。 Reed。 ̄
^Is there anything else you wish for察Jane拭I assure you察I desire to be your friend。 ̄
^Not you。 You told Mr。 Brocklehurst I had a bad character察a deceitful disposition察and I¨ll let everybody at Lowood know what you are察and what you have done。 ̄
^Jane察you don¨t understand these things此children must be corrected for their faults。 ̄
^Deceit is not my fault 院I cried out in a savage察high voice。
^But you are passionate察Jane察that you must allow此and now return to the nursery!there¨s a dear!and lie down a little。 ̄
^I am not your dear察I cannot lie down此send me to school soon察Mrs。 Reed察for I hate to live here。 ̄
^I will indeed send her to school soon察院murmured Mrs。 Reed sotto voce察and gathering up her ent。
I was left there alone!winner of the field。 It was the hardest battle I had fought察and the first victory I had gained此I stood awhile on the rug察where Mr。 Brocklehurst had stood察and I enjoyed my conqueror¨s solitude。 First察I smiled to myself and felt elate察but this fierce pleasure subsided in me as fast as did the accelerated throb of my pulses。 A child cannot quarrel with its elders察as I had done察cannot give its furious feelings uncontrolled play察as I had given mine察without experiencing afterwards the pang of remorse and the chill of reaction。 A ridge of lighted heath察alive察glancing察devouring察would have been a meet emblem of my mind when I accused and menaced Mrs。 Reed此the same ridge察black and blasted after the flames are dead察would have represented as meetly my subsequent condition察when half´an´hour¨s silence and reflection had shown me the madness of my conduct察and the dreariness of my hated and hating position。
Something of vengeance I had tasted for the first time察as aromatic wine it seemed察on swallowing察warm and racy此its after´flavour察metallic and corroding察gave me a sensation as if I had been poisoned。 Willingly would I now have gone and asked Mrs。 Reed¨s pardon察but I knew察partly from experience and partly from instinct察that was the way to make her repulse me with double scorn察thereby re´exciting every turbulent impulse of my nature。
I would fain exercise some better faculty than that of fierce speaking察fain find nourishment for some less fiendish feeling than that of sombre indignation。 I took a book!some Arabian tales察I sat down and endeavoured to read。 I could make no sense of the subject察my own thoughts swam always between me and the page I had usually found fascinating。 I opened the glass´door in the breakfast´room此the shrubbery was quite still此the black frost reigned察unbroken by sun or breeze察through the grounds。 I covered my head and arms with the skirt of my frock察and went out to walk in a part of the plantation which was quite sequestrated察but I found no pleasure in the silent trees察the falling fir´cones察the congealed relics of autumn察russet leaves察swept by past winds in heaps察and now stiffened together。 I leaned against a gate察and looked into an empty field where no sheep were feeding察where the short grass was nipped and blanched。 It was a very grey day察a most opaque sky察 onding on snaw察院canopied all察the
