Quotation from: Jane Eyre

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


"Well, I cannot return to the house," I thought; "I cannot sit by
the fireside, while he is abroad in inclement weather: better tire
my limbs than strain my heart; I will go forward and meet him."


I set out; I walked fast, but not far: ere I had measured a quarter
of a mile, I heard the tramp of hoofs; a horseman came on, full
gallop; a dog ran by his side. Away with evil presentiment! It
was he: here he was, mounted on Mesrour, followed by Pilot. He
saw me; for the moon had opened a blue field in the sky, and rode
in it watery bright: he took his hat off, and waved it round his
head. I now ran to meet him.
