] Just because CB chose to unman Rochester by blinding and making him lose a hand does not mean he has been transformed as a being. It is no longer in his power to persue all he desires.

] He's still a jerk in my books. I can find no evidence tht he has really changed. Perhaps reader tend to love him because Jane, who we are so fond of loves him. I do not find this enough reason to change my opinion.



What of Rochester's prayer?
"I thank my Maker, that in the midst of judgment he has remembered mercy. I humbly entreat my Redeemer to give me strength to lead henceforth a purer life than I have done hitherto!"

Do you see no change in that from the time when he tried to defy all the "laws of God and man?"
