Jane Eyre assignment 15

Really, all i can say about that quote is, wow... Jane really does think about everything that she does and goes to a really deep level with whatever her choices are. I think that what Jane is saying is that she loves Mr Rochester, but in order to be his wife, she's going to have to be extra nice to him, and be more calm and subtle, and she says that she is going to be "forced to keep the fire of my nature continually low" and I think that, that makes Jane think of being trapped in a cage, or in like a cold place where she doesn't have space to do anything, like Bertha Mason. She was Mr Rochester's wife and she ended up being locked up in this room where she couldn't see anyone but Grace Poole, and the man that locked her up. I think knowing that Mr Rochester has done that before makes her think that if she doesn't take care of him all the time every single day that Mr Rochester might do the same with Jane, and it comes back to this sense that Jane is this wild untamed girl, and she doesn't want to be tamed, but to be able to let out the flame that's burning inside of her soul.
