00:30Good afternoon. Is this the parsonage? Aye. Is the clergyman in? Nay. Will he be home
00:50soon? Nay. His father's dead and he'll most likely be away a fortnight, or even more.
00:54Is there a lady of the house? Yeah, I keep house here, and I've note for charity.
01:04Excuse me for disturbing you, but is a servant wanted here, please?
01:30Please, give me that food. Mother, there's a beggar woman here who wants me to give her
01:36my porridge. Well lass, give it to her if pigs don't want it.
01:59What do you want? He's gonna pick your mistresses. You'd better tell me what you want to say.
02:21I want a nice shelter in an outhouse, anywhere, and a crust of bread. I'll give you some bread,
02:27but we can't take it. Where shall I go if you turn me away? Here's a penny, now go.
02:33Please, I can go just fine. Don't close the door, please, don't. Don't push it,
02:38the rain is coming in. You're not what you want to be. Give us that house,
02:45it's ready for all I know.
02:50What is it, Anna? Who is she? A beggar woman.
03:00Anna, open quickly.
03:07Oh, Mr. Sindel, your sisters were quite lazy about you.
03:11That beggar woman tried to force her way in. Be off with you, for shame. Anna, I have a word to say to the woman.
03:17You have done your duty in excluding, now let me do mine. This is a strange case and one I must look into.
03:23Here, sit down. Anna, perhaps some water? No, some milk and a little red. Fetch some.
03:30Oh, she's worn almost to nothing. Not too much at first, she is too unwell.
03:34What is your name? My name is Jane.
03:45Jane Elliot. Where do you live? Where are your friends?
03:53Can we send for anyone you know?
03:58What account can you give of yourself?
04:00Oh, sir, I can tell you nothing tonight. What then do you wish me to do for you? Nothing.
04:11You mean you want nothing more of us? That we may dismiss you to the moor in the rainy night?
04:21I trust you. You would not do that to a stray dog tonight?
04:26Do with me as you wish, but please excuse me from talking. My breath is short and I feel a spasm when I speak.
04:40Do try to, each. Let's try. Mary, Diana, let us go to the parlour. Anna, attend her.
04:49Come.
05:19Come.
05:35Come along.
05:37And go. Yes. Straight upstairs, out of those wet clothes and into a good warm bed. Diana's up there now lighting a fire. Here, let me help you. Anna, bring up some hot water bottles.
06:08Okay.
06:26It is needless to send for a doctor. It is only the effect of excessive and prolonged fatigue.
06:31I am, however, certain there is no disease. Heaven be thanked. As soon as she can take
06:36sufficient nourishment, she will regain her strength. She has rather an unusual face,
06:44but I see no sign of vulgarity or degradation. The very opposite. To speak the truth, St. John,
06:51my heart rather warms to the poor little soul. I wish we could help her permanently. It is hardly
06:57likely. You'll find, probably, she is a young lady who has had a misunderstanding with her
07:02friends and injudiciously left them. We may perhaps restore her to them, if she is not obstinate.
07:10She looks sensible.
07:16It is strange. The grace and harmony of beauty are quite wanting in her features.
07:22She is not at all handsome. She is so ill, St. John.
07:28Let her sleep. Come.
07:42It means, wouldst thou understand others, look in thine own heart. So true. Drink your milk, miss.
07:51Still on with that German. What good does it do you? Mary and I mean to teach it. That way,
07:58we can make more money than we do now. Very like. But give over. You've done enough.
08:03Yes. And I think Jane can sleep now. Good night, my dear. Good night.
08:11Good night, my dear. Good night.
08:16Oh, at least you're eating and drinking better. Can you sit up?
08:21Oh, only just.
08:26How long have I been here? You've not been out of this bed for three days,
08:30and tonight makes four nights. I would get up if I had the strength.
08:36And I have nothing to wear. My clothes are ruined.
08:39One thing at a time. Lie back now and sleep like Miss Diana told you.
08:48Good night, then. Wish I could get to my bed when I'm fancy.
10:06Good morning, Hannah. Oh, you got up, then.
10:13You look a sight better, I must say. Sit you down in my chair.
10:27Did you ever go begging before you came here? I'm no beggar any more than you or your young
10:33ladies. I don't understand that. You got, like, no house, no brass, I guess.
10:40It does not make me a beggar. Were you bootlearned?
10:44Yes. I was at a boarding school for eight years. Whatever can you keep yourself for, then?
10:51I have done so, and I hope I will again in the future.
10:58What are you going to do with those apples? Make them into pies.
11:02Give them to me and I'll peel them for you. Very well.
11:12Here, put this on your lap and you'll look at your dress.
11:18Thank you. You have not been used to servant's work, I see, by your hands.
11:23Never mind what I have been. What is the name of this house?
11:29They call it Moor House. Mr. St. John lives here?
11:33No, he doesn't live here, and it's Mr. St. John Rivers.
11:38He's a parson at Morton, a few miles off, with a home of his own.
11:44And it is his father's residence? It was.
11:49Old Mr. Rivers died three weeks in of a stroke. That's why Mr. St. John and Miss Diana and Miss
11:56Mary are all here. Young ladies do not live here either?
12:00They work in London as governesses. Their mother's been dead money a year.
12:07And old Mr. Rivers, he lost a great deal of money by a man he had trusted turning bankrupt.
12:14They love this old house, though. And the moors round about. They come whenever they can.
12:21And you, have you lived with the family long? I've been here 30 years. I nursed them all three.
12:30That proves you must have been a faithful and honest servant.
12:34I will say so, even though you were uncivil enough to call me a beggar.
12:41There's so many cheats about, you won't forgive me.
12:44You won't be too hard on me. You look a right down-decent little creature.
12:50That'll do. She counts.
12:52Oh, you lass. I know you want to talk, but you've got the look of a lady.
12:59Someone must be worrying about you.
13:03Yes. It hurts me so, I cannot bear to think about it.
13:10It hurts me so, I cannot bear to think about it.
13:14I dare not communicate. I dare not. The more you eat, the better.
13:19I've never eaten so much. You are hungry.
13:30I trust I will not eat longer to expense her. No. When you have told us where your friends are,
13:37we can write to them and you may be restored to home.
13:41I must be plain, sir. That is beyond my power. I am without home or friends.
13:50A most singular position. You wear no ring. You are a spinster.
13:56My St. John. She cannot be above 17 years of age. Only 19. No, I'm not married.
14:04You're too inquisitive, St. John.
14:05I cannot help you if I know nothing about you.
14:10I want only to be put in the way of some work I can do, to earn the bare necessaries of life.
14:15I will aid you in that to the best of my powers, but...
14:18Don't make her talk anymore, St. John. One can see that she's not yet fit for excitement.
14:24Come and sit here, Miss Elliot.
14:26You said your name was Jane Elliot.
14:30Yes. It is not my real name. It is what I think it best to be called at present.
14:38Your real name you will not give? No. I fear discovery above all things.
14:45You are quite right, I am sure. Oh, let her be at peace, St. John.
14:50You wish to remain independent? My sisters would love to keep you,
14:55but in a month or so they will return to their duties in the south.
14:59I shall return to my parish and take Hannah with me. This house will be shut up.
15:05I shall endeavour to enable you to keep yourself.
15:09I'll do anything, even the humblest task. If such is your spirit.
15:12I will do anything.
15:14I shall endeavour to enable you to keep yourself. I'll do anything, even the humblest task.
15:19If such is your spirit. I promise to aid you in my own time and way.
15:35Even away from his parish, St. John will go out visiting the sick and the poor.
15:39He lives only for his vacation, Jane.
15:44Ah, here he comes at last.
16:03Excuse me.
16:10Come in.
16:14Come in.
16:23You have a question to ask of me? If I may.
16:29I am anxious to know whether you have heard of any service I can undertake.
16:34I found something for you three weeks ago, but you seemed so useful and happy,
16:38and my sisters are very attached to you. I thought I would not speak until the time
16:42came for us to leave Moor House. But that is in only three days' time.
16:46Yes.
16:49What is the engagement you have in view, Mr. Rivers?
16:53Morton, when I came to it two years ago, had no school.
16:57The children of the poor had no hope of progress.
17:00I have since established a boys' school, and I now mean to open one for girls.
17:06The teacher's salary will be thirty pounds a year.
17:09She will have a small cottage and some attendance from a needy child.
17:13The funds are provided by Miss Oliver. Will you be this teacher?
17:18Thank you, Mr. Rivers. I accept with all my heart.
17:20But you comprehend me. It is a village school.
17:23The scholars will only be poor girls, farm children at most.
17:27What will you do with your mind, accomplishments, sentiments, tastes?
17:31They will keep until they are needed.
17:33You know what you undertake, then?
17:35I do. I will open the school next week, if you like.
17:38Very well. So be it.
17:42And I'm to start in three days' time. Jane, it is a great sacrifice you make.
18:06Our Uncle John is dead.
18:10And what then?
18:13What then die?
18:15Why, nothing.
18:17Read.
18:39Amen.
18:39Amen.
18:41We may at least live.
18:44We shall be no worse off than we were before.
18:48It does force upon the mind what might have been.
18:52Too vivid a contrast with what is.
19:04Oh, Jane, you must wonder at us and our mysteries.
19:14We may seem hard-hearted over the death of an uncle, but we've never seen him.
19:19It was by his advice that my father lost most of his money.
19:24They quarreled, and my Uncle John later prospered and became rich.
19:29He never married, and my father always cherished the belief
19:33that he would atone for his error by leaving his possessions to us.
19:38This letter informs us that every penny has gone to another relation,
19:43with the exception of 30 guineas to purchase three mourning rings for St John, Mary, and me.
19:54We would have bought ourselves rich with 1,000 pounds each.
19:59And St John would have done such a lot of good with some money.
20:07But come, my dears.
20:11Let us be cheerful before our parting.
20:30Good day, Miss Elliot.
20:31Good day, Mr. Rivers.
20:32Please, won't you come in?
20:43Have you found your first day's work harder than you expected?
20:45Oh, no, on the contrary.
20:47May I make you some tea?
20:48No, I have only brought you a little parcel.
20:50My sister's left for you.
20:52Some color box, pencils, and paper, I think.
20:56How good of them.
21:00But, uh, perhaps your accommodation is not—
21:03All I see has made me thankful.
21:05Good.
21:10Miss Elliot, I counsel you very firmly to resist every temptation to look back.
21:21Why do you say that?
21:22I see something in your eyes.
21:24It is a restlessness.
21:26You will not stay long at Morton.
21:28Why? I'm not ambitious.
21:30No, I know I am.
21:32What made you use the word?
21:35I was speaking of myself.
21:36You are—forgive the word—impassioned.
21:43It is hard to control the workings of inclination.
21:47I know from experience.
21:48But it may be done.
21:50A year ago, I was intensely miserable.
21:53The dull duties of the ministry wearied me to death.
21:57I longed for excitement, for some distinguished career.
22:02But after much darkness and struggling, light broke upon me.
22:07I have resolved to be a missionary.
22:09I have vowed within a year to leave Europe for the East.
22:15Allow me.
22:22Oh, good evening, Mr. Rivers.
22:24Good evening.
22:25Papa told me that the new mistress was come, and I ran up the valley to see her.
22:31This is she.
22:33Do you think you will like Morton?
22:35Oh, I hope so.
22:36You're Miss Oliver?
22:37Indeed I am.
22:38Do you like your house?
22:39Greatly.
22:40And I thank you for all you've done to provide for me.
22:42I shall come up to help you sometimes.
22:45Mr. Rivers, I've been so gay of late.
22:48I was dancing till two o'clock this morning.
22:52You're quite a stranger at the hall.
22:55Will you return with me and visit Papa?
22:58It is not a seasonable hour to intrude on Mr. Oliver.
23:01I declare it is.
23:03Why are you so very shy and somber?
23:06Oh, I'm so thoughtless.
23:09You are sad after parting with your sisters.
23:12Do come.
23:13We will be company for you.
23:16Not tonight.
23:18Well, if you're so obstinate, I must leave you.
23:25I dare not stay, for the dew begins to form.
23:29Good evening.
23:29Good evening.
23:30Good evening.
23:39Mr. Briggs, you were kind enough to concern yourself
23:42in the affairs of myself and Miss Eyre, but a few days since.
23:45Sir.
23:45I know.
23:46You were only doing your duty.
23:48I was, Mr. Rochester.
23:50But why do you summon me back here so soon
23:53and so imperatively?
23:57Miss Eyre has disappeared.
23:59I'm hardly surprised.
24:00Hear me out, man.
24:04I need help.
24:07The kind for which a local lawyer is not fitted.
24:09I need a London man.
24:12What would you wish me to do, Mr. Rochester?
24:15You have brother lawyers in every town.
24:18Write to them.
24:19Advertise.
24:19There are discreet agents to trace people, are there not?
24:24Engage them.
24:26Spare no expense.
24:28If I do find her, she may not wish her whereabouts to be revealed.
24:33I do not mean to hound her.
24:36I shall leave her in peace if I can.
24:40But I must know that she does not want.
24:43That she is well.
24:45That she is cared for.
24:46That she is safe.
24:51I cannot live fearing for her.
24:55I must know she dwells securely upon this same earth as myself.
25:00Find her, Mr. Briggs.
25:02Find her.
