1 I wonder when St. John will come home.
2 When he is at home, he is in his own parish at Morton.
3 The next day Bessie was sent for home to the deathbed of her little sister.
4 All these relics gave to the third storey of Thornfield Hall the aspect of a home of the past: a shrine of memory.
5 I heard you come home that night, Jane, though probably you were not aware that I thought of you or watched for you.
6 How people feel when they are returning home from an absence, long or short, I did not know: I had never experienced the sensation.
7 I had it still before me when I entered Hay, and slipped the letter into the post-office; I saw it as I walked fast down-hill all the way home.
8 Many, already smitten, went home only to die: some died at the school, and were buried quietly and quickly, the nature of the malady forbidding delay.
9 This phrase, uttered in my hearing yesterday, would have only conveyed the notion that she was about to be removed to Northumberland, to her own home.

15 Pressed for further explanation, they declared she had told them of things they had said and done when they were mere children; described books and ornaments they had in their boudoirs at home: keepsakes that different relations had presented to them.
16 I felt glad as the road shortened before me: so glad that I stopped once to ask myself what that joy meant: and to remind reason that it was not to my home I was going, or to a permanent resting-place, or to a place where fond friends looked out for me and waited my arrival.
17 I was glad of it: I never liked long walks, especially on chilly afternoons: dreadful to me was the coming home in the raw twilight, with nipped fingers and toes, and a heart saddened by the chidings of Bessie, the nurse, and humbled by the consciousness of my physical inferiority to Eliza, John, and Georgiana Reed.
