Answer:

What have I done? What have I done

Step-by-step explanation:

Miss Havisham is a wealthy, eccentric woman who hates all men. She torments Pip via his adopted daughter Estella. She teaches Estella how to unleash vengeance upon Pip, turning an innocent child into a wild avenger. But here, Miss Havisham realizes her cruelty and remorse and she speaks many a time, in fact, "twenty times, fifty times over, what she had done".

Answer:

The quote that made miss Havisham to realize the consequences of her action is "what have I done! What have I done!"

Step-by-step explanation:

Miss Havisham was an embittered lady who was jilted on her wedding day. She depicts innocence destroyed due to heartbreak, which calls for revenge. Though wealthy, she became an eccentric woman who hates men. She adopted and raised Estella who was an orphan. But, Pip was raised by his sister and her husband to become a blacksmith.

She teaches Estella to be cold and break male hearts, turning her into a wild avenger.
