former slave - answer “The man with the cutlass said, 'You cry for her--when she ever
cry for you? Tell me that'" (17).
girl on way to school - answer She try to kill her husband and she try to kill you too that
day you go to see her.
Rochester - answer” ‘No, the rain is stopping.' She held up the skirt of her riding habit
and ran across the street. I watched her critically. She wore a tricorne hat which
became her. At least it shadowed her eyes which are too large and can be
disconcerting. She never blinks at all it seems to me. Long, sad, dark alien eyes. Creole
of pure English descent she may be, but they are not English or European either. And
when did I begin to notice all this about my wife Antoinette? After we left Spanish Town I
suppose. Or did I notice it before and refuse to admit what I saw? Not that I had much
time to notice anything. I was married one month after I arrived in Jamaica and for
nearly three weeks of that time I was in bed with fever."
Rochester - answer “Everything is too much, I felt as I rode wearily after her. Too much
blue, too much purple, too much green. The flowers too red, the mountains too high, the
hill too near. And the woman is a stranger. Her pleading expression annoys me. I have
not bought her, she has bought me, or so she thinks. I looked down at the coarse mane
of the horse ... Dear Father. The thirty thousand pounds have been paid to me without

love. No begging letters, no mean requests. None of the furtive shabby manœuvres of a
younger son. I have sold my soul or you have sold it, and after all is it such a bad
bargain? The girl is thought to be beautiful, she is beautiful. And yet ..."
Rochester - answer"Byron's poems, novels of Sir Walter Scott, Confessions of an opium
Eater, some shabby brown volumes, and on the last shelf, Life and Letters of ... The
rest was eaten away."
Christophine - answer"'England,' said Christophine, who was watching me. 'You think
there is such a place?' 'How can you ask that? You know there is.' 'I never see the
damn place, how I know?' 'You do not believe that there is a country called England?'
She blinked and answered quickly, 'I don't say I don't believe, I say I don't know, I know
what I see with my eyes and I never see it. Besides I ask myself is this place like they
tell us?" (58).
Rochester - answer"'I feel very much a stranger here,' I said. 'I feel that this place is my
enemy and on your side"
