Excerpt from "Jane Eyre" and the chapter it comes from

I went down the stairs and walked a section of the way downstairs. Finally, I opened and closed two doors without making any sound. I reached another row of stairs.

I climbed up. , directly opposite is Miss Temple's room, a light shines through the keyhole and under the door, and everything around is silent. I took a closer look and saw that the door was ajar, perhaps to let some fresh air into the stuffy ward. I hate hesitation by nature

and I was impatient and impulsive at the time - my whole body was shaking with extreme pain, I pushed open the door and stuck my head in , eyes searching for Helen, worried about meeting death.

. . . . . . . .

"Helen!" I whispered softly, "Are you awake?"

She moved and opened the curtains by herself, and I reached her face, which was pale and haggard. , but very calm, she seemed to have no change, so my fear suddenly disappeared.

"Is it really you, Jane?" she asked in her distinctive soft tone.

"Ah!" I thought, "She won't die. They made a mistake. If she didn't survive, her speech and expression would not be so

calm."

I got on her crib and kissed her. Her forehead was cold, her cheeks were cold, and she was very thin. Her hands and wrists were also cold, but her smile remained the same.

"Why are you here, Jane? It's past eleven, and I heard a knocking a few minutes ago."

"I came to see you, Helen. I heard "You are very ill and I can't sleep without saying a word to you."

"Then you are here to say goodbye to me. Maybe you have come at the right time."

"Where are you going, Helen? Are you going home?"

"Yes, back to my permanent—my last home."

" No, no, Helen," I paused, feeling sad. I tried my best to swallow my tears, and then Helen coughed, but it didn't wake the nurse. After coughing, she lay exhausted for a few minutes, and then said softly:

"Jane, your feet are bare. Lie down and cover me with my quilt."

I did as she said. She put her arms around me, and I clung to her, and after a long silence she continued to whisper: "I was very happy, Jane, when you heard that I was dead. , you must not be sad. There is nothing to be sad about. We all have to die one day. The disease that is taking my life now is not painful, and my soul is at rest. It would be too sad for anyone to think that I had only one father, a newly married man, who would not miss me. I should die so young that I could escape great suffering, and I had neither the temperament nor the talent to make a fortune in the world.

Yes. If I live, I will continue to be wrong."

"But where are you, Helen? Can you see?"

"I believe, I have faith, I go to God."

"Where is God? What is God?"

"My Creator , and yours. He will not forever destroy what He has created. I rely unreservedly on His power, trusting completely in His mercy, and I count the hours until the moment comes, At that time I was returned to him, and he appeared in front of me again."

"Helen, you must think that there is a place called heaven, and that we have souls after death. Are they all going there? ”

“I am sure there is a future kingdom. I believe God is merciful and I can give my share of immortality without worry. Entrusted to Him, God is my Father, God is my Friend, I love Him and I believe He loves me too.

”

“Helen, after I die, can I see you again? ”

“You will come to the same happy place and be accepted by the same great and unique father in the world. There is no doubt about it.

Dear Jane. . "

I asked again, but this time I was just thinking about it. "Where is this area? Does it exist? "I held Helen tighter with my arms. She seemed to be more precious to me than ever before, and I seemed to feel that I couldn't let her go.

I Lying down and burying her face in the crook of her neck, she immediately said in her sweetest voice:

“How comfortable I am! The cough just now made me a little tired, and I seemed to be able to fall asleep, but leave me, Jane, I like you by my side. ”

“I will stay with you, dear Helen. No one can drive me away. "

"Are you warm, dear? "

"Yes. ”

“Good night, Jane. ”

“Good night, Helen. "

She kissed me, I kissed her, and the two of them fell asleep quickly.

It was already daytime when I woke up, and a strange shaking shook me. I woke up. I looked up and found that I was lying in someone else's arms. The nurse was holding me and walking me back to the dormitory through the aisle. I was not punished for leaving my bed.

People had other things to think about, and many of the questions I asked went unanswered, but I learned after a day or two that

Miss Temple returned to her room at dawn. and found me lying on the cot, my face pressed against Helen Burns's shoulder, my arms round her neck, I was asleep, and Helen——dead . Her grave, in Brockbridge Cemetery, remained an overgrown mound for ten and five years after her death, but is now marked by a gray marble headstone. This place has her name and the word "Resurgam" engraved on it.

"Chapter 9" In the school part, Helen was Jane Eyre's first best friend. , but it’s a pity to be seriously ill!

II

Luo: Haven’t slept yet?

Jane: How can I sleep without seeing you come back safely? ?

Luo: He is fine, he is under the care of a doctor.

Jian: The danger you said last night has passed?

Mason is not leaving. It's hard to guarantee that. The sooner the better.

Jane: He doesn't seem to be someone who wants to harm you.

Ro: Of course not. Yu Wuxin. Sit down.

Jian: Who is Grace Poole?

Luo: I have no other choice. >Jane: How could it be?

Don't force me to answer. I... I'm so dependent on you! What should I do, Jane? Such an example. There was a young man who was spoiled since he was a child. He made a huge mistake - not a sin, but a mistake - and the only escape was to live freely and have fun. . Later, he met a woman, a noble woman he had never seen in twenty years, and he found a chance to live again. But could that woman ignore this? >Jane: Are you talking about yourself, Mr. Rochester?

Ro: Yes.

Jane: Everyone is responsible to God for his own actions and cannot ask others to bear his responsibility.

Luo: Huh! Don’t you think that if I marry her, she can give me a complete new life?

Jane: Since you are. Ask me - I don’t think so.

Luo: You don’t like her?

Jane: I think she is not suitable for you.

Luo: Ah - so confident? So who is suitable? Is there anyone you can recommend? ……snort!

Hi - are you used to living here?

Jane: I'm happy here.

Luo: Are you willing to leave here?

Jane: Get out of here?

Luo: I won’t live here after I get married.

Jane: Of course. Adele could go to school and I could find another job. I'm going in! I'm cold!

Luo: Jane!

Jane: Let me go!

Luo: Wait!

Jane: Let me go!

Luo: Jane!

Jane: Why are you telling me this! She has nothing to do with you and me. Do you think I am poor, ugly, and have no feelings? I will too, if God gives me wealth and beauty, I will make it difficult for you to leave me, just as it is difficult for me to leave you now! God is not like this. Our spirits are equal, just as you and I have passed through the tomb and will stand before God in the same way!

Luo: Jane!

Jane: Let me go!

Luo: I love you, I love you!

Jane: No! Stop making fun of me!

Luo: Making fun of? I want you! What Blanche had, to me, was nothing more than the capital her father used to clear the land. Marry me, Jane! Say something and marry me!

Jian: ...is it true?

Luo: Hi, you! Your doubts torture me! Say yes! Say yes!

……

God forgive me and don’t let anyone interfere with me. She is mine, mine!

"Chapter 20" 3

Rochester: Is that you? Jane, is it really you? Are you here to see me? Didn't expect me to be like this, huh? snort!

[Commentary] He stroked my cheek with his hand.

Rochester: What? Crying? No need to feel sad. How long can I stay? An hour or two? Don't just leave. Well, or do you have a hotheaded husband waiting for you?

Jane Eyre: No.

Rochester: Not married yet? This is not good. Jane, you are not beautiful, so you can't be too picky.

Jane Eyre: Yes.

Rochester: It’s strange, why no one proposes to you?

Jane Eyre: I didn’t say no one proposed to me.

Rochester: Got it. Yeah, well, Jane, you should get married.

Jane Eyre: Yes, that’s true. You should get married too. You, like me, can’t be too picky.

Rochester: Ah, yes, of course not. (clears throat) When will you get married? I picked up Adele from school.

Jane Eyre: What to get married?

Rochester: Damn it, you said you were going to get married.

Jane Eyre: No.

[Commentary] He understood what I really meant.

Rochester: Then sooner or later a fool will find you.

Jane Eyre: I hope so. Someone—a fool—had already come to me.

[Commentary] At this time, I saw tears flowing from his closed eyes.

Jane Eyre: I'm going home, Edward, let me stay.

[Commentary] I rushed forward, snuggled into his arms, and wiped away his tears. He smiled again. We finally love each other equally.

Jane Eyre is a good book with many classic passages. These are just three of them. If you want to understand the true meaning, I suggest you read it yourself. Commentary on "Jane Eyre"

"Jane Eyre" The Struggle History of a Cinderella-like Character

Jane Eyre 1847 is a novel with a strong autobiographical component. Although the stories in the book are fictional, the lives, environments, and even many life details of the heroine and many other characters are drawn from the real experiences of the author and the people around him. The author Charlotte Bront? was born in 1816 in a pastoral family in northern England. Her mother died young, and eight-year-old Charlotte was sent to a boarding school. The living conditions there were extremely harsh, and her two sisters died of lung disease. So Charlotte and her sister Emily returned to their hometown and spent their childhood in the desolate Yorkshire mountains. When she was 15 years old, she entered the school run by Miss Wooler and became a teacher in this school a few years later. Later, she worked as a tutor, but she gave up her career as a tutor because she could not bear the discrimination and harshness towards tutors from noble ladies and wealthy ladies. She had planned to run her own school, so with the support of her aunt, she went to Italy with Emily to learn French and German. However, the school could not be completed because no one came to attend. But her experience of studying in Italy inspired her strong desire to express herself, prompting her to devote herself to the path of literary creation.

"Jane Eyre" was written in 1846 and is Charlotte's second novel. She used the struggle experience of a young woman from a humble background to express her feelings, which deeply moved the readers at the time. The novel was published under the pen name of Cole Bell in the autumn of 1847, and was reprinted twice in the following year. This little-known author, Charlotte Bronte, thus entered the ranks of famous British novelists.

The uniqueness of "Jane Eyre" lies not only in the authenticity and strong appeal of the novel, but also in the fact that the novel creates an independent and enterprising female image who does not succumb to worldly pressure. The love story of Jane Eyre to Rochester in the novel vividly displays her fiery passion and sincere heart, which strongly reveals her view of love. She despises the arrogance of the powerful and laughs at their stupidity, showing her self-reliant personality and beautiful ideals. She boldly loved what she loved, but when she found out that the person she loved still had a wife, she resolutely left the person and place she was nostalgic for. The idea expressed in the novel, that is, the idea that women are unwilling to accept the status assigned to them by society and demand independence and equality in work and marriage, was extraordinary at the time and shocked the British literary world. The fictional ending of the novel depicts Jane Eyre receiving an inheritance and returning to the lonely and helpless Rochester. Although this plot is worthy of scrutiny, it reveals the author's ideal - women's independence and equality in the economy, social status and family, as well as their unswerving loyalty to love.

Charlotte is also unique in her writing style. Her writing style is concise and expressive, simple and vivid, and her first-person narrative language makes the novel close to readers and reality. At the same time, the novel embodies the characteristics of the European Romantic literary tradition, showing the author's rich imagination and poet's temperament. The author naturally uses dreams, hallucinations, premonitions, symbols, metaphors and other techniques in the narrative, making the "natural" realm of the novel confusing and the plot gripping.
