Jane Eyre
by Charlotte Bronte (excerpt)
Long did the hours seem while I waited the departure of the company, and listened for the sound of Bessie's step on the stairs: sometimes she
would come up in the Interval to seek her thimble or her scissors, or perhaps to bring me something by way of supper-a bun or a cheese-cake
- then she would sit on the bed while I ate it, and when I had finished, she would tuck the clothes round me, and twice she kissed me, and sald,
"Good night, Miss Jane." When thus gentle, Bessie seemed to me the best, prettiest, kindest being in the world; and I wished most intensely that
she would always be so pleasant and amiable, and never push me about, or scold, or task me unreasonably, as she was too often wont to do.
Bessie Lee must, I think, have been a girl of good natural capacity, for she was smart in all she did, and had a remarkable knack of narrative; so,
at least, I judge from the impression made on me by her nursery tales.
