Consistency
,
madam
,
is
the
first
of
Christian
duties
;
and
it
has
been
observed
in
every
arrangement
connected
with
the
establishment
of
Lowood
:
plain
fare
,
simple
attire
,
unsophisticated
accommodations
,
hardy
and
active
habits
;
such
is
the
order
of
the
day
in
the
house
and
its
inhabitants
.
"
"
Quite
right
,
sir
.
I
may
then
depend
upon
this
child
being
received
as
a
pupil
at
Lowood
,
and
there
being
trained
in
conformity
to
her
position
and
prospects
?
"
"
Madam
,
you
may
:
she
shall
be
placed
in
that
nursery
of
chosen
plants
,
and
I
trust
she
will
show
herself
grateful
for
the
inestimable
privilege
of
her
election
.
"
"
I
will
send
her
,
then
,
as
soon
as
possible
,
Mr.
Brocklehurst
;
for
,
I
assure
you
,
I
feel
anxious
to
be
relieved
of
a
responsibility
that
was
becoming
too
irksome
.
"
"
No
doubt
,
no
doubt
,
madam
;
and
now
I
wish
you
good
morning
.
I
shall
return
to
Brocklehurst
Hall
in
the
course
of
a
week
or
two
:
my
good
friend
,
the
Archdeacon
,
will
not
permit
me
to
leave
him
sooner
.
I
shall
send
Miss
Temple
notice
that
she
is
to
expect
a
new
girl
,
so
that
there
will
be
no
difficulty
about
receiving
her
.
Good-bye
.
"
"
Good-bye
,
Mr.
Brocklehurst
;
remember
me
to
Mrs.
and
Miss
Brocklehurst
,
and
to
Augusta
and
Theodore
,
and
Master
Broughton
Brocklehurst
.

I
will

Little
girl
,
here
is
a
book
entitled
the
'
Child
's
Guide
,
'
read
it
with
prayer
,
especially
that
part
containing
'
An
account
of
the
awfully
sudden
death
of
Martha
G
--
a
naughty
child
addicted
to
falsehood
and
deceit
.
'
"
With
these
words
Mr.
Brocklehurst
put
into
my
hand
a
thin
pamphlet
sewn
in
a
cover
,
and
having
rung
for
his
carriage
,
he
departed
.
Mrs.
Reed
and
I
were
left
alone
:
some
minutes
passed
in
silence
;
she
was
sewing
,
I
was
watching
her
.
Mrs.
Reed
might
be
at
that
time
some
six
or
seven
and
thirty
;
she
was
a
woman
of
robust
frame
,
square-shouldered
and
strong-limbed
,
not
tall
,
and
,
though
stout
,
not
obese
:
she
had
a
somewhat
large
face
,
the
under
jaw
being
much
developed
and
very
solid
;
her
brow
was
low
,
her
chin
large
and
prominent
,
mouth
and
nose
sufficiently
regular
;
under
her
light
eyebrows
glimmered
an
eye
devoid
of
ruth
;
her
skin
was
dark
and
opaque
,
her
hair
nearly
flaxen
;
her
constitution
was
sound
as
a
bell
--
illness
never
came
near
her
;
she
was
an
exact
,
clever
manager
;
her
household
and
tenantry
were
thoroughly
under
her
control
;
her
children
only
at
times
defied
her
authority
and
laughed
it
to
scorn
;
she
dressed
well
,
and
had
a
presence
and
port
calculated
to
set
off
handsome
attire
.
Sitting
on
a
low
stool
,
a
few
yards
from
her
arm-chair
,
I
examined
her
figure
;
I
perused
her
features
.
In
my
hand
I
held
the
tract
containing
the
sudden
death
of
the
Liar
,
to
which
narrative
my
attention
had
been
pointed
as
to
an
appropriate
warning
.
What
had
just
passed
;
what
Mrs.
Reed
had
said
concerning
me
to
Mr.
Brocklehurst
;
the
whole
tenor
of
their
conversation
,
was
recent
,
raw
,
and
stinging
in
my
mind
;
I
had
felt
every
word
as
acutely
as
I
had
heard
it
plainly
,
and
a
passion
of
resentment
fomented
now
within
me
.
