Jane in Jane Eyre. Jane is shown to be a passionate child when she tells Helen Burns that she cannot forgive Mrs Reed and refuses to. This shows that Jane is passionate and headstrong as she will not forgive Mrs Reed and John for their past actions. This also illustrates that Jane's emotions govern her decisions. The use of the adjective 'impossible' highlights how absurd Jane thinks the idea of blessing John is, highlighting how she will never do it.
Jane shows kindess towards Adele. When Jane believes Rochester is to marry Blanche Ingram, she asks Rochester to look after Adele and ensure she has a good education.
Jane truly cares for Adele and wishes the best for her. This request is unusual, as Jane is asking her master, Rochester, to think about Adele's future. In the Victorian era, women and particularly governesses would not comment on their master's decisions. The fact that Jane does highlights how she cares about Adele and is willing to request something from her master.

Two nights before the wedding, a frightening, dark-haired woman enters her room and rips her wedding veil in two. Although Jane is certain this woman didn't look like Grace Poole, Rochester assures her it must have been the bizarre servant. The morning of the wedding finally arrives. Jane and Rochester stand at the altar, taking their vows, when suddenly a strange man announces there's an impediment to the marriage: Rochester is already married to a woman named Bertha Antoinetta Mason.
Rochester rushes the wedding party back to Thornfield, where they find his insane and repulsive wife locked in a room on the third story. Grace Poole is the woman's keeper, but Bertha was responsible for the strange laughter and violence at Thornfield.
Rochester tries to convince Jane to become his mistress and move with him to a pleasure villa in the south of France. Instead, Jane sneaks away in the middle of the night, with little money and no extra clothing. With twenty shillings, the only money she has, she catches a coach that takes her to faraway Whitcross. There, she spends three days roaming the woods, looking for work and, finally, begging for food.
On the third night, she follows a light that leads her across the moors to Marsh End also called Moor House , owned by the Rivers family. Hannah, the housekeeper, wants to send her away, but St. John Rivers, the clergyman who owns the house, offers her shelter. Jane soon becomes close friends with St. John's sisters, Diana and Mary, and he offers Jane a humble job as the schoolmistress for the poor girls in his parish at Morton.
Because their father lost most of his money before he died, Diana and Mary have been forced to earn a living by working as governesses.
One day, St. John learns that, unbeknownst to her, Jane has inherited 20, pounds from her uncle, John Eyre. Furthermore, she discovers that St. John's real name is St. John Eyre Rivers, so he, his sisters, and Jane are cousins. The Rivers were cut out of John Eyre's will because of an argument between John and their father. Thrilled to discover that she has a family, Jane insists on splitting the inheritance four ways, and then remodels Moor House for her cousins, who will no longer need to work as governesses.
Not content with his life as a smalltime clergyman, St. John plans to become a missionary in India. He tries to convince Jane to accompany him, as his wife.
Realizing that St. John doesn't love her but just wants to use her to accomplish his goals, Jane refuses his request, but suggests a compromise by agreeing to follow him to India as a comrade, but not as a wife.
