I hardly heard Mrs. Fairfax's account of the curtain conflagration during dinner, so much was I occupied in puzzling my brains over the enigmatical character of Grace Poole, and still more in pondering the problem of her position at Thornfield and questioning why she had not been given into custody that morning, or, at the very least, dismissed from her master's service.
No pensaba sino en el enigma del carácter y la posición de Grace Poole en la casa, ya que era raro que no la hubieran entregado a las autoridades o, al menos, la hubiesen despedido.
