“Which　you　shall　make　for　me；　Jane。　I　will　abide　by　your　decision。”

“Choose　then；　sir—her　who　loves　you　best。”

“I　will　at　least　choose—her　i　love　best。　Jane；　will　you　marry　me？”

“Yes；　sir。”

“A　poor　blind　man；　whom　you　will　have　to　lead　about　by　the　hand？”

“Yes；　sir。”

“A　crippled　man；　twenty　years　older　than　you；　whom　you　will　have　to　wait　on？”

“Yes；　sir。”

“Truly；　Jane？”

“Most　truly；　sir。”

“Oh！　my　darling！　God　bless　you　and　reward　you！”

“Mr。　Rochester；　if　ever　I　did　a　good　deed　in　my　life—if　ever　I　thought　a　good　thought—if　ever　I　prayed　a　sincere　and　blameless　prayer—if　ever　I　wished　a　righteous　wish；—I　am　rewarded　now。　To　be　your　wife　is；　for　me；　to　be　as　happy　as　I　can　be　on　earth。”

“Because　you　delight　in　sacrifice。”

“Sacrifice！　What　do　I　sacrifice？　Famine　for　food；　expectation　for　content。　To　be　privileged　to　put　my　arms　round　what　I　value—to　press　my　lips　to　what　I　love—to　repose　on　what　I　trust：　is　that　to　make　a　sacrifice？　If　so；　then　certainly　I　delight　in　sacrifice。”

“And　to　bear　with　my　infirmities；　Jane：　to　overlook　my　deficiencies。”

“Which　are　none；　sir；　to　me。　I　love　you　better　now；　when　I　can　really　be　useful　to　you；　than　I　did　in　your　state　of　proud　independence；　when　you　disdained　every　part　but　that　of　the　giver　and　protector。”

“Hitherto　I　have　hated　to　be　helped—to　be　led：　henceforth；　I　feel　I　shall　hate　it　no　more。　I　did　not　like　to　put　my　hand　into　a　hireling’s；　but　it　is　pleasant　to　feel　it　circled　by　Jane’s　little　fingers。　I　preferred　utter　loneliness　to　the　constant　attendance　of　servants；　but　Jane’s　soft　ministry　will　be　a　perpetual　joy。　Jane　suits　me：　do　I　suit　her？”

“To　the　finest　fibre　of　my　nature；　sir。”

“The　case　being　so；　we　have　nothing　in　the　world　to　wait　for：　we　must　be　married　instantly。”

He　looked　and　spoke　with　eagerness：　his　old　impetuosity　was　rising。

“We　must　bee　one　flesh　without　any　delay；　Jane：　there　is　but　the　licence　to　get—then　we　marry。”

“Mr。　Rochester；　I　have　just　discovered　the　sun　is　far　declined　from　its　meridian；　and　Pilot　is　actually　gone　home　to　his　dinner。　Let　me　look　at　your　watch。”

“Fasten　it　into　your　girdle；　Ja；　and　keep　it　henceforward：　I　have　no　use　for　it。”

“It　is　nearly　four　o’clock　in　the　afternoon；　sir。　Don’t　you　feel　hungry？”

“The　third　day　from　this　must　be　our　wedding…day；　Jane。　Never　mind　fine　clothes　and　jewels；　now：　all　that　is　not　worth　a　fillip。”

“The　sun　has　dried　up　all　the　rain…drops；　sir。　The　breeze　is　still：　it　is　quite　hot。”

“Do　you　know；　Jane；　I　have　your　little　pearl　necklace　at　this　moment　fastened　round　my　bronze　scrag　under　my　cravat？　I　have　worn　it　since　the　day　I　lost　my　only　treasure；　as　a　memento　of　her。”

“We　will　go　home　through　the　wood：　that　will　be　the　shadiest　way。”

He　pursued　his　own　thoughts　without　heeding　me。

“Jane！　you　think　me；　I　daresay；　an　irreligious　dog：　but　my　heart　swells　with　gratitude　to　the　beneficent　God　of　this　earth　just　now。　He　sees　not　as　man　sees；　but　far　clearer：　judges　not　as　man　judges；　but　far　more　wisely。　I　did　wrong：　I　would　have　sullied　my　innocent　flower—breathed　gui
