JANE: Sir, I have come back to you Content ROCHESTER: Great God! What delusion is this? JANE: Ready to stand here by your side, As you see fit... ROCHESTER: Is it Jane? JANE: As your friend, or as your bride. ROCHESTER: My living Jane! JANE: Sir, you are my second self And I will be your hands I'll be your eyes I am here With my heart ROCHESTER: I can't see, but I can feel... How I've loved you, every day. JANE: I've loved you stronger every day How I've lived without your touch... ROCHESTER: How I've struggled to survive... BOTH: ...Only God above can say. ROCHESTER: Am I hideous, Jane? JANE: Very, sir. You always were you know. ROCHESTER: I see the wickedness is still within you. But is it really you, Jane? Are you come back to me? JANE: I am! ROCHESTER: And you are not dead in some ditch, or an outcast among strangers? JANE: No, sir! I am an independent woman now! ROCHESTER And independent woman? JANE My aunt has died and left me her fortune ROCHESTER: Then you possess more wealth than I What could I possibly offer? I am no better Than the old chestnut Struck down by lightning Its life cleft in two For why should you marry A blind man, a cripple Tell me, Jane, what right do I have to you? I prayed in the name of God Don't let Jane suffer Don't let her die For three days, in my despair I cried to heaven Where is Jane Eyre? Then, from my lips Came a voice, came a name I cried "Jane" from the depths I called out I cried "Jane" BOTH: And I don't know what happened But I thought I heard you... JANE: Did you speak these words out loud? ROCHESTER: I did. If anyone was listening, he would have thought me mad... I called out with such frantic energy. JANE: And this was last Monday evening, just after sunset? ROCHESTER: Yes, but what followed is the strangest point. Where the voice came from, I cannot tell, but I know whose voice it was... And the voice replied... JANE: Edward? Where are you? Wait for me! ROCHESTER: Yes, yes... but how could you know that? JANE: The secrets of your heart Are like the secrets of the house They have finally been revealed ROCHESTER: There is no more to hide I have looked death in the face And though a part of me has died BOTH: I will never lose faith I will never lose heart For you have restored my trust And I know you're afraid I'm as scared as you are But willing to be brave Brave enough for love ROCHESTER: And now I have your hand JANE: Clutching mine with all its might Holding on for precious life ROCHESTER: The purifying flame Has washed us clean of all our fears BOTH: It was a miracle of God I will never lose faith I will never lose heart For you have restored my trust And I know you're afraid I'm as scared as you are But willing to be brave Brave enough for love And when I heard your voice Beyond the sky I knew it was a sign from God above One I could not deny JANE: So, gentle audience, I married him. No woman was ever nearer to her mate than I am, ever more absolutely bone of his bone and flesh of his flesh. ROCHESTER: The secret of the flame Is that there is no more to hide It cures our blindness And our pride BOTH: And we'll never lose faith We will never lose heart For you have restored my trust And I know you're afraid I'm as scared as you are But willing to be brave Brave enough for love JANE: Edward continued blind the first two years of our marriage, then, slowly, the sight in one eye began to return to him. CAST: Forgiveness Is the mightiest sword Forgiveness... JANE: And when our firstborn was placed into his arms, he could see that the boy had inherited his own eyes, as they once were-large, brilliant and black. On this occasion, we acknowledged with full hearts, that God had tempered judgment with mercy. ROCHESTER: I will never lose faith I will never lose heart For you have restored my trust JANE: And I know you're afraid I'm as scared as you are... BOTH: But willing to be brave Brave enough for love! CAST: I will never lose faith I will never lose heart For you have restored my trust And I know you're afraid I'm as scared as you are But willing to be brave Brave enough for love! I will never lose faith I will never lose heart For you have restored my trust And I know you're afraid I'm as scared as you are But willing to be brave Brave enough for love JANE: Brave enough for love! CAST: Brave enough for love
