Quotation from: Jane Eyre

Written by: Charlotte Bronte

"Surely he will not be long now: it is just ten (looking at a
little gold watch she drew from her girdle). It rains fast, Hannah:
will you have the goodness to look at the fire in the parlour?"

The woman rose: she opened a door, through which I dimly saw
a passage: soon I heard her stir a fire in an inner room; she
presently came back.
