Write an account of Helen's feelings after she was publicly flogged. You should portray this as a monologue directed to Jane. You should aim to create an authentic voice for Helen which builds upon Charlotte Bronte's representation of this character and captures aspects of the writers chosen form, language and structure. .

Life appears to be too short to be spent in nursing animosity or registering wrongs. Your betrayal and anger towards Miss Scratcherd bewilders me, you must understand the reasons behind her ways whether right or wrong - you do not judge. My dearest Jane, your attitude truly troubles me. You must bear the sins of others, turn the other cheek, and love your enemy. I, for one, have learned this first hand. The indignation you expel toward Miss Scratcherd is misspent. .
I do not despise Miss Scratcherd, I cannot comprehend my behavior as it pains me to foresee my faults, and thus, we are all watched attentively if our wretched behavior is inadequate. You must understand, poor Jane, we need to be guided in a direction where we can become more delinquent and indoctrinated taking the execrable punishments. I feel betrayed that my innocence is not shown towards Miss Scratcherd; I for one feel my unruly habits should be stopped. If only I took pride in my appearance, was less careless and put things in order, maybe I would not have given her ammunition. Assured types of punishments are endured for one to overcome the hatred nor vengeance which will one day heal wounds. .
My actions are somewhat careless and I need to be taught a lesson. I struggle to understand your reasoning dear Jane, I rightly believe that I can assist you of the teaching of the Lord. In time you will be taught this valuable lesson so take heed of my warning, as I have become accustomed to your company Jane. God gives me the strength and power to be tolerant and accept the roles both you and I play here.
