A poor clergyman's daughter goes out as a governess to two rich families, one with a boy who tortures birds and one with daughters who barely notice she is there, and in the end she marries the curate who does.

The human heart is like india-rubber; a little swells it, but a great deal will not burst it.
Agnes Grey, Anne Brontë
