Ext. A midsummer dawn. Thornfield the grounds

INT. EVENING. THORNFIELD - MRS FAIRFAX'S PARLOUR

Jane is on a low seat, Adele nestling close to her.

Jane Eyre adapted by Moira Buffini March 2008 80.

MRS FAIRFAX

We're expecting the announcement

very soon. He went down to London

only last week to buy her a new

carriage.

JANE

Then we must accept it. He'll

soon bring home his bride.

Mrs Fairfax nods.

EXT. TWILIGHT. THORNFIELD - THE ORCHARD

Jane is alone, drinking in the beauty of the evening -

looking at the gardens as if she may never see them again.

She turns a corner and sees Rochester staring intently at

something. His back is to her. She is about to tiptoe away.

ROCHESTER

Come and look at this fellow, Jane.

Jane approaches, wondering how he has sensed her presence.

Rochester is looking at a huge moth.
