Ext. A midsummer dawn. Thornfield the grounds

INT. DAY. THORNFIELD - THE HALL.

Rochester is waiting at the bottom of the stairs for Jane.

She slows when she sees him. She finds she cannot speak.

Neither can he.

Mrs Fairfax is by the door. Jane can't find words for her.

Jane Eyre adapted by Moira Buffini March 2008 89.

ROCHESTER

Come.

Rochester grips her hand. They quit the house.

EXT. DAY. THORNFIELD - THE GROUNDS.

Rochester, grimly resolute, is striding at a pace Jane can

hardly follow. Her satin shoes are muddy. She is becoming

breathless. A rook flies over their heads, cawing.
