Besides this earth , and besides the race of men , there is an invisible world and a kingdom of spirits : that world is round us , for it is everywhere ; and those spirits watch us , for they are commissioned to guard us ; and if we were dying in pain and shame , if scorn smote us on all sides , and hatred crushed us , angels see our tortures , recognise our innocence if innocent we be : as i know you are of this chargewhich mr . brocklehurst has weakly and pompously repeated at secondhand from mrs . reed ; for i read a sincere nature in your ardent eyes and on your clear front , and god waits only the separation of spirit from flesh to crown us with a full reward 这个世界包围着我们，无所不在。那些精灵们注视着我们，奉命守护我们。要是我们在痛苦和耻辱中死去要是来自四面八方的鄙视刺伤了我们要是仇恨压垮了我们，天使们会看到我们遭受折磨，会承认我们清白无辜如果我们确实清白无辜，我知道你受到了布罗克赫斯特先生指控，但这种指控软弱无力，夸大其词，不过是从里德太太那儿转手得来的，因为我从你热情的眼睛里，从你明净的前额上，看到了诚实的本性，上帝只不过等待灵魂与肉体分离，以赐予我们充分酬报。
