Quotation from: Jane Eyre

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


Blanche and Mary were of equal stature, -- straight and tall as
poplars. Mary was too slim for her height, but Blanche was moulded
like a Dian. I regarded her, of course, with special interest.
First, I wished to see whether her appearance accorded with
Mrs. Fairfax's description; secondly, whether it at all resembled
the fancy miniature I had painted of her; and thirdly -- it will
out! -- whether it were such as I should fancy likely to suit Mr.
Rochester's taste.
