Quotation from: Villette

Written by: Charlotte Bronte


"Now that I am on board, I shall certainly stay here," was my answer.
"I will trouble you to show me my berth."


She complied, but sullenly. I took off my bonnet, arranged my things,
and lay down. Some difficulties had been passed through; a sort of
victory was won: my homeless, anchorless, unsupported mind had again
leisure for a brief repose. Till the "Vivid" arrived in harbour, no
further action would be required of me; but then.... Oh! I could not
look forward. Harassed, exhausted, I lay in a half-trance.
