JANE
Are you ill, sir?
ROCHESTER
Jane, I've been dealt a blow - I've been dealt a blow, Jane.
JANE
What is it, sir?
ROCHESTER
Will you ease my trouble?
JANE
If you tell me how
ROCHESTER
Once you offered your sweet shoulder
JANE
You can have it now
Please take my arm, sir
Let me comfort you
ROCHESTER
Jane, I wish that we were far away
On a quiet island in a distant country
Living day to day
Jane, what would you do?
If all the people that you see
Denounced my name and spat at me?
JANE
I would comfort you...
ROCHESTER
Oh, Jane, what would you do?
If there was something I had done
To make them leave me one by one?
JANE
I would never lose faith
I would never lose heart
I would stand by your side
They could slander your name
They could brand you with shame
But so your heart be pure
There would be no blame
