ne meeting as an example. They talk about gift and Jane’s answer is that: “sir, you have now given me my ‘cadeau’; I am obliged to you ‘it is the meed teachers most covet-praise of their pupils’ progress.” ⑤ Here shows Jane’s self-respect. 2. Jane Eyre Falling in Love with Mr. Rochester Mr. Rochester and Jane fall in love concerns and have revealed a lot of problem of United Kingdom society and tell to reader: What is the amatory basis? How gain happy marriage? What position should the woman have in the family? Love is the most beautiful characteristic of human beings’ life and love can not be measured by one’s status, power or property. In most individuals’ life, people like to seek a meaningful, romantic relationship resulting in love, commitment, companionship and happiness. In my opinion, it is most important that a man and a woman have heart and feelings that find a perfect response, and also have mutual affinity. Shakespeare says: “the course of true love never runs smooth.” Jane and Rochester get true love after a lot of sufferings. Jane loves Rochester deeply always-from the beginning to the end. There should be no distinction of property, rank or age in true love. Jane falls in love with Mr. Rochester. He who has rich experience and wisdom is softhearted, wealthy and in high rank as well as having pride and rudeness. Jane loves him, but not for his wealth and high rank, because he treats her equally and in a friendly manner, although she is poor and in low position. She is such an excellent girl, good, intelligent, considerate that Rochester is attracted by her. It is Jane but not someone else who Rochester loves. In order to lead a life of independence, Jane works as a governess at Thornfield Hall. She is looked down upon by the rich ladies of the fashionable society, but she never despises herself, she never feels herself inferior.

And if god had gifted me with some beauty, and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you. I am not talking to you through the medium of custom, conversation, nor even of mortal flesh;-it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed though the grave, and we stood at God’s feet, equal,-as we are!”⑥ Here, “equal” is the word, she loves Rochester just because he regards her as a human being, or more importantly, as an equal person. Equality is what she strives for, and in him she finds what she strives for. It shows that Jane is not very mature in mind. Without Rochester, her material life can’t be affected, but she can’t part from Rochester in spirit and emotion. Rochester wins Jane’s heart, because she feels they are kindred spirits, and because he is the first person in the novel to offer Jane lasting love and a real home. Jane is honest, noble, pure, intelligent not to accept contaminating of common customs society, she has accepted his love just now, and has agreed to get married with Rochester. 3.
