Six months later ,Lockwood returns to Wuthering Height. He finds that Nelly now lives there. She tells him about what happened after her left; two weeks after he left Zillah left and Heathcliff asked her to take her place. Catherine admits to feeling guilty for mocking Hareton. One day Haeton accidentlally shoots himself while working, and Cathy has to tend to him. At first they argue often , but eventually they come to an understanding and start to get along. Cathy give Hareton a book and promises to teach him to read and promises not to mock him. Nelly says that the two have come to love each other and looks forward to a eventual marriage between them.
Ananlysis :
Hareton and cathy are similar to Heathcliff and Catherine with one Crucial difference: Hareton and Cathyboth learn to feel remorse for their aggressive or condesending actions.Cathy has always been attracted to men she can mother but unlike Linton , who was weak and sniveling Hareton is her equal. Cathy realizes this as seen through her offering to teach him how to read. Rather than look down at him because of status she now see his potential. She now sees beyond class and toghether the two of them fina a balance betweeen nature and civilization.
