　　9、Jane：You mean it?

　　Rochester：You torture me with your doubts.Say yes,say yes。God forgive me.And let no men meddle with me.She is mine.Mine.

　　10、Why did you say that to me? To punish me a little longer? Jane, I‘ve been though! For the first time I have found what I can truly love. Don‘t take if away from me.

　　11、Jane：No, don‘t make me foolish.

　　Rochester：Foolish? I need you. What‘s Blanch to me? I know what I am to her. Money to manure her father‘s land with. Marry me, Jane. Say you marry me.

Our spirit is same, just like you with my grave, will equally by standing in front of god!

　　14、If God had gifted me with some beauty And much wealth,I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you.I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom,convenionalties, nor even of mortal flesh: it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the gave, And we stood at God‘s feet,equal-as we are!

　　15、Why do you confide in me like this? What are you and she to me? You think that because I‘m poor and plain, Ihave no feelings? I promise you, if God had gifted me with wealth and beauty, I would make it as hard for you to leave me now as it is for me to leave you. But He did not. But my spirit can address yours, as if both have passed through the grave and stood before heaven equal.

　　16、Do you think I can stay to become nothing to you? Do you think I am an automaton?A machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup?

　　Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong!I have as much soul as you,and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you.

　　I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh;it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God‘s feet, equal,as we are!
