Story of Helen Burns (from film Jane Eyre)

Helen Burns was a young girl, who grew up in Lowood Charity School. We meet her at the beginning of the film “Jane Eyre”. This young lady makes friends with Jane Eyre, when Jane enters the school and when the strict headmaster Mr. Brocklehurst ordered Jane to stand up on a seat. But when the girls are singing pious songs the headmaster suddenly said, that Jane had to sing together with girls. And this was the first situation, when Helen Burns met Jane.
Girls were sleeping when Helen woke up Jane and gave her bread with cheese. Jane was very glad because she did not eat all the day. After she had a little snack, Jane asked Helen about her name and from this time the girls started being good friends.
Helen’s story continues. She has bigger healthy problems. She still has a cough. In the afternoon Jane was drawing and asked Helen to put her bonnet down. But after some minutes the headmaster came into the room and saw her. This old man was so annoyed that he ordered to cut Helen’s hair. But Jane was sorry for Helen and so she put her bonnet down and let her hair cut down, too.
Helen’s illness became worse. When she was coughing, it hurt her. One winter night health state changed. When Jane woke up Helen was lying in another bed. Jane went downstairs and found her friend lying in another bed. Helen really looked bad and Jane got down beside her. Jane woke up and checked Helen’s body but she was dead in the morning.
