I remembered little of the journey which started so early in the morning. I only knew that the day seemed
extremely long, and that we appeared to travel over hundreds of miles. Calmed by the sound of the carriage
wheels, I fell asleep. But I had not slept long when the carriage stopped, the door was opened, and I saw a
servant standing there.
"Is there a little girl called Jane Eyre here?" she asked. I answered "Yes," and was then lifted out. I looked
about me. I could see a house with many windows. There were lights burning in some of them. We went up
a wide path, and were admitted at a door. Then the servant led me through a passage into a room where she
left me I stood and warmed my frozen fingers at the fire and looked around. There was no candle, but the
light for the fire showed wails, a carpet, curtains and furniture. Then the door opened, and a tall lady entered
followed by another who looked younger. "The child is very young to be sent alone," said she, putting her
candle down on the table.
Led by the younger lady, Miss Miller, through passage after passage, we came, at last to a long, wide room
filled with many voices. There were many tables, and seated all round on benches were a large number of girls
aged from nine to twenty. Seen in the dim (微弱的) light of the candles, their number appeared above eighty.
Each was dressed in a brown old fashioned dress of cheap material. It was their hour of study.
Miss Miller signed to me to sit on a bench near the door, then walking up to the top of the long room she
cried out "Monitors, collect the lesson-books and put them away!"
Four tall girls arose and went round, gathered the books and removed them. Miss Miller again ordered,
"Monitors, fetch the supper-trays (托盘)!" Then tall girls went out and returned soon, each carrying a big tray.
Food and water was in the middle of each tray. The food was handed round and everyone drank from the
same mug. When it came to my turn, I drank too, for I was thirsty, but I did not touch the food. From there
I was taken to my hard bed where I thankfully fell asleep immediately.
