Nelly Dean
Name the SPEAKER of this quote: “I bounded, leaped, and flew down the steep road,…precipitating myself, in fact, towards the beacon light of the Grange.

Heathcliff
Name the SPEAKER of this quote: “Sit still, Mrs. Dean, do sit still another half hour! You’ve done right to tell the story leisurely…I am interested in every character you have mentioned, more or less.”
Mr. Lockwood
Name the SPEAKER of this quote: “I lingered around them…and wondered how anyone could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth.”
Mr. Lockwood
Name the person or place spoken ABOUT in this quote: “I began to doubt whether he were a servant or not: his dress and speech were both rude; …his thick, brown curls were rough and uncultivated, his whiskers encroached bearishly over his cheeks, and his hands were embroiled like those of a common laborer; still his bearing was free, almost haughty, and he showed none of the domestics assiduity in attending the lady of the house.”
Hareton
Name the person or place spoken ABOUT in this quote: “Happily, the architect had foresight to build it strong; the narrow windows are deeply set in the wall, and the corners defended with large jutting stones… I paused to admire a quantity of grotesque carvings lavished over the front, and especially about the principle door.”
Wuthering Heights
Name the person or place spoken ABOUT in this quote: “But _____________ forms a singular contrast to his abode and style of living. He is a dark-skinned gypsy in aspect, in dress and manners a gentlemanly; that is, as much a gentleman as many a country squire; rather slovenly, perhaps, yet not looking amiss with his negligence because he has an erect and handsome figure; and rather morose.”
Heathcliff
Name the person or place spoken ABOUT in this quote: “She was at that time a charming young lady of eighteen; infantile in manners, though possessed of keen feelings, and a keen temper, too if irritated. Her brother, who loved her tenderly, was appalled at this fantastic preference.”

Hindley
Name the person or place spoken ABOUT in this quote: “A wild, wicked slip she was—but she had the bonniest eye, and the sweetest smile, and the lightest foot in the parish; and after all, I believe she meant no harm ; for when once she made you cry in good earnest, it seldom happened that she would not keep you company, and oblige you to be quiet that you might comfort her.”
Catherine
Name the person or place spoken ABOUT in this quote: “He was asleep in a corner, wrapped in a warm, fur-lined cloak, as if it had been winter. A pale, delicate, effeminate boy, who might have been taken for my master’s younger brother, so strong was the resemblance.”
Linton
