Who does Mr Rochester play to test Jane Eyre at Thornfield Manor's party?

At Thornfield Manor's party, Rochester plays an old lady who can tell fortune to test Jane Eyre.

The specific plot mainly occurs in chapter 19, and the excerpts are as follows:

When I came in, the library looked very quiet, and the witch-if she really was-sat comfortably in an easy chair in the corner of the chimney. She wore a red cloak, a black bonnet, or rather a wide-brimmed gypsy hat tied to her chin with a striped handkerchief. There is an extinguished candle on the table. She leaned over the stove, and by the light of the fire, she seemed to be reading a little black book like a prayer book. As she read, she muttered to herself like most old women. When I came in, she didn't put down the book at once, as if she were going to finish reading a paragraph.

Where am I? Are you awake or asleep? Did I dream? Are you still doing it now? The old woman changed her voice. Her accent, her gestures, everything about her, like my face in the mirror, are all familiar to me. I stood up, but I didn't go. I looked, turned the fire and looked at her again, but she pulled her hat and bandage close to her face and waved me away. The flame lit up her outstretched hand. At this time, I woke up, looking for something, and immediately noticed this hand. Like my hand, this is not an old man's withered hand. It is plump and soft, its fingers are smooth and symmetrical, and there is a shiny thick ring on its little finger. I bent down to take a closer look and saw a gem that I had seen hundreds of times before. I looked at the face again, but this time I didn't avoid me-on the contrary, my hat was taken off, my bandage was torn, and my head reached out to me.

"Hi, Jane, do you know me?" Asked the familiar accent.

"All you have to do is take off your red cloak, sir, and then-""But this rope is tied-give me a hand."

"Break it, sir."

"Well, then-""Take it off, you outsiders!" Mr rochester took off his disguise.
