3 His letter was then calm, and, though very serious, kind.
4 He folded the letter, locked it in his desk, and again went out.
5 I wrote again: there was a chance of my first letter having missed.
6 Mr. Rochester had been absent upwards of a fortnight, when the post brought Mrs. Fairfax a letter.
7 , at the post-office there; you can go and inquire in about a week after you send your letter, if any are come, and act accordingly.
8 No wonder that letters addressed to people here had never received an answer: as well despatch epistles to a vault in a church aisle.
9 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.
10 The last letter I received from him drew from my eyes human tears, and yet filled my heart with divine joy: he anticipated his sure reward, his incorruptible crown.

15 A picturesque track it was, by the way; lying along the side of the beck and through the sweetest curves of the dale: but that day I thought more of the letters, that might or might not be awaiting me at the little burgh whither I was bound, than of the charms of lea and water.
16 My father always cherished the idea that he would atone for his error by leaving his possessions to us; that letter informs us that he has bequeathed every penny to the other relation, with the exception of thirty guineas, to be divided between St. John, Diana, and Mary Rivers, for the purchase of three mourning rings.
17 It was a fine, calm day, though very cold; I was tired of sitting still in the library through a whole long morning: Mrs. Fairfax had just written a letter which was waiting to be posted, so I put on my bonnet and cloak and volunteered to carry it to Hay; the distance, two miles, would be a pleasant winter afternoon walk.
