Deceitful

Conventional gentleman
Aristocratic fruends - follows social expectations- marry off aristocratic beauty
Displays wealth - wants Jane to “ doll “ up fine dresses expensive jewellery
“ dark face, stern features ‘
Indicative of Byronic hero

Social and economic superior to Jane
Natural in Victorian era
BUT intellectual equals
Tried to marry Jane without the truth
Manipulates
Selfish dishonest
“ lonely “ “hopeless “
Without Jane
Physical pain without emotional
Jane - loses eyesight, hand but lonely hopeless without her
