Her parting was my pain; The chance that did her steps delay
Was ice in every vein. I dreamed it would be nameless bliss,
As I…

When I’m reading Jane Eyre, my mind decides to narrate her name like the opening lyrics to Blue Jeans. ‘Jane Eyre, Gateshead, Send her to the red-room when she’s aggravated.’
