Quotation from: Jane Eyre

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


"Well, how wet and cold you must be, such a wild night as it is!
Come in -- your sisters are quite uneasy about you, and I believe
there are bad folks about. There has been a beggar-woman --
I declare she is not gone yet! -- laid down there. Get up! for
shame! Move off, I say!"


"Hush, Hannah! I have a word to say to the woman. You have done
your duty in excluding, now let me do mine in admitting her. I was
near, and listened to both you and her. I think this is a peculiar
case -- I must at least examine into it. Young woman, rise, and
pass before me into the house."
