Passage 1: Excerpt from Chapter 4 of Jane Eyre
In this section from the end of Chapter 4, Jane Eyre is still a child and is taking leave of her guardian, Mrs. Reed, who has treated her with great unkindness.
1 I gathered my energies and launched them in this blunt sentenceâ
2 âI am not deceitful: if I were, I should say I loved you; but I declare I do not love you: I dislike you the worst of anybody in the world except John Reed; and this book about the liar, you may give to your girl, Georgiana, for it is she who tells lies, and not I.â
3 Mrs. Reedâs hands still lay on her work inactive: her eye of ice continued to dwell freezingly on mine.
4 âWhat more have you to say?â she asked, rather in the tone in which a person might address an opponent of adult age than such as is ordinarily used to a child.
5 That eye of hers, that voice stirred every antipathy I had. Shaking from head to foot, thrilled with ungovernable excitement, I continuedâ
6 âI am glad you are no relation of mine: I will never call you aunt again as long as I live. I will never come to see you when I am grown up; and if any one asks me how I liked you, and how you treated me, I will say the very thought of you makes me sick, and that you treated me with miserable cruelty.â
7 âHow dare you affirm that, Jane Eyre?â
8 âHow dare I, Mrs. Reed? How dare I? Because it is the truth. You think I have no feelings, and that I can do without one bit of love or kindness; but I cannot live so: and you have no pity. I shall remember how you thrust me backâroughly and violently thrust me backâinto the red-room, and locked me up there, to my dying day; though I was in agony; though I cried out, while suffocating with distress, âHave mercy! Have mercy, Aunt Reed!â And that punishment you made me suffer because your wicked boy struck meâknocked me down for nothing. I will tell anybody who asks me questions, this exact tale. People think you a good woman, but you are bad, hard-hearted. You are deceitful!â
