Ext. A midsummer dawn. Thornfield the grounds

INT. DAY. MOOR HOUSE - A BEDROOM.

Through the light, Jane sees Mary and Diana Rivers at her

side.

Jane Eyre adapted by Moira Buffini March 2008 11.

MARY

She's awake.

St John approaches in his parson's collar, blocking out the

light as he looks down. Jane gazes at him remotely.

ST JOHN

I'm sure we'll find she's simply

had a misunderstanding with her

people. I hope she's not done

anything deplorable; there's

nothing so sad as a fallen young

woman.

MARY

Look at the suffering in her

eyes. They're like dark pools -

Diana smiles at Mary's tendency to over-dramatise.

DIANA

She has a peculiar face; I rather

like it.
