Quotation from: Jane Eyre

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


"Cruel, cruel deserter! Oh, Jane, what did I feel when I discovered
you had fled from Thornfield, and when I could nowhere find you;
and, after examining your apartment, ascertained that you had taken
no money, nor anything which could serve as an equivalent! A pearl
necklace I had given you lay untouched in its little casket; your
trunks were left corded and locked as they had been prepared for
the bridal tour. What could my darling do, I asked, left destitute
and penniless? And what did she do? Let me hear now."
