Is, 'Leave the heart that now I bear, And give me liberty!'Yes, as my swift days near their goal,'Tis all that I implore -In life and death, a chainless soul, With courage to endure. Emily Bronte

The moment her regard ceased, I would have torn his heart out and drank his blood! But, till then - if you don't believe me, you don't know me - til then, I would have died by... Emily Bronte
Yes, as my swift days near their goal, 'Tis all that I implore— Through life and death, a chainless soul, With courage to endure! Emily Bronte

Emily Bronte

And now he stared at her so earnestly that I thought the very intensity of his gaze would bring tears into his eyes; but they burned with anguish: they did not melt. Emily Bronte
