Ext. A midsummer dawn. Thornfield the grounds

INT. DAY. THORNFIELD - JANE'S BEDROOM.

Jane's room is entirely unchanged except for the fact that

it is full of river water from floor to ceiling. Her

bedding, furniture and belongings all sit in the room as

normal - underwater.

The light shines murkily in through the window to reveal

Jane floating, suspended. Her hair and her garments trail

out. She is alive. But she is drowned.

INT. NIGHT. THORNFIELD - JANE'S BEDROOM.

The moon has risen. Jane is lying in an exhausted doze on

the bed. She wakes; sits up. She is faint. She recovers

herself. She knows what she must do.

CUT TO:

Jane, dressed in black in the silver light, putting her

brush, comb and brooch in a bag. She looks in her purse.

She has some coins.
