During Jane’s dream, Bertha is standing in front of the mirror. Jane sees “the reflection of visage and features quite distinctly in the dark” (327).

After she had rinsed and pat-dried her face with a plush towel, she took a dollop of creme from a jar she kept on a shelf above the sink and massaged it into her skin using gentle circular motions over her face, down her neck and across…
