Page 114: Jane is walking down a desolate path in the winter when the only light is from the moon and there is silence all around. It was her comfort it was what she longed for. After all the years she was alone, not by her choice, now she wishes to be alone. She will be alone all her life, even with a companion.
Page 117: Jane has a run in with the master of the house she is staying, though he doesn't tell her who he is. She notices his coarse language and rugged features. She dictates that if he had been sophistocated or refined she would've shyed away from him and let him be, instead she persisted because he was coarse, all that she knew. Despite what she had hated about living at the Reeds it seems she is following the same path now as an adult.
Page 118: When the master talks it's in a manner in which people are "disposed to obey." There is a sense of confidence about him which cannot be ignored and makes up for his other "deformities" as they've been called. Jane's future husband.
Page 123-124: Jane is so accustomed to harshness that she takes pleasure in the unsophistocation of Mr. Rochester and his crude manner. It even puts her at an advantage, as she notes. It makes her the superior of mind and civility. Rochester himself is amused by Jane and her air about her. Made for each other?
