Summary

Description
English: From Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Bronte: Rochester approaching his dying West Indian wife. Illustration to accompany text: "... I witnessed, and several more witnessed, Mr. Rochester ascend through the sky-light on to the roof; we heard him call 'Bertha!'

"Dead?"

"Dead! Ay, dead as the stones on which her brains and blood were scattered."
