After this time, Jane has to return to Gateshead to attend to her dying aunt. Jane is gone for a month and realizes that she is desperately in love with Rochester. Upon her return to Thornfield, proclaims her love to Rochester. “It is as if I had a string somewhere under my left ribs, tightly and inextricably knotted to a similar string situated in the corresponding quarter of your[Rochester] little frame.” (Brontë, 814).

In fact, according to Levy, W., (1999), “until she was sixteen she lived half of the year with her spinster aunts, her father’s sisters, in New Orleans, and the other half with her parents on the Upper West Side of Manhattan in New York City” (pg. 350). This resulted in her wanting to be alone and quitting college at the age of 19, taking a job with a publisher. Many of her plays drew from her life and family. “The Children’s Hour” was Ms. Hellman’s first success at the age of 29.

The narrator speaks in the “we” voice and appears to designate the people of the town. The first example of this occurrence happens during the flashback in the second section, when they are speaking of her sweetheart and the narrator incidentally says “the one we believed would marry her” (35). He or she recounts the story of Emily's life as a lonely woman left lonely by her father, who also drove away suitors from his overprotected daughter. The narrator gives his/her point of view on Emily’s entire life constructed by gossip, speculations and legends of the old town they live in. I believe the narrator voice is being compared to living in a small town, when the townspeople spread rumors and opinions of a person’s life as if they really know what is going on behind closed doors.
Roderick’s sister, Madeline, suffers from a similar disease but she is dying off, like “a flower without water”. When Madeline supposedly dies, Roderick and the narrator note the slight smile and flush of color on her face, making her seem alive.

At the end, Madeline walks to the narrator’s room and Roderick dies from the fright of the events he foresaw would happen. Madeline dies from the exhaustion of not having food for a week and then walking from the vault to the narrator’s room.
