Ext. A midsummer dawn. Thornfield the grounds

EXT. DAY. A CHURCHYARD.

Brocklehurst is at the church door; Jane looking at him

coldly. She holds a bunch of wild flowers.

JANE

Yes. Excuse me.

She walks into the graveyard. There are over forty small

graves marked with wooden crosses, each bearing a child's

name. One of them says Helen Burns. Jane lays down her

flowers.

She looks up at Brocklehurst. He cannot meet her eye.

We hear the voice of Mrs Fairfax.

MRS FAIRFAX (V.O.)

If Jane Eyre of Lowood School...

INT. NIGHT. MORTON - JANE'S COTTAGE.

Jane tries to quell her great unhappiness. She springs into

action, straightening her furniture, stoking her fire.

MRS FAIRFAX (V.O.)

...Who advertised in the Yorkshire

Herald, possesses the acquirements

mentioned...

EXT. DAY. A ROADSIDE.

Jane, younger and more hopeful, with her belongings in a

small trunk, awaits an approaching public coach.
