You might as well know this as well I'm going back with her; it'll be some gayer than these lonely old valleys or your house stuck away all by itself with nothing to see but Senator Alderwith's steers." There flashed into Calvin Stammark's mind the memory of how he had planned to possess just such cattle for Hannah and himself; he saw in the elusive lamplight the house he had built for Hannah.
It was deep in grass, watered with streams like twisting shining ribbons, and held a sleek slow-grazing herd of cattle. The care of the latter, a part of Senator Alderwith's wide possessions, was to form Calvin's main occupation for the present anyhow. Calvin Stammark had larger plans for his future with Hannah.
The truck patch would be dug on the right, the clearing widen rod by rod. From Alderwith's meadows came the soft blowing of a steer's nostrils, while the persistent piping of the frogs in the hollows fluctuated in his depressed consciousness. Calvin had drawn rein and sat on his horse in the road.
He might be sitting on his rooftree squaring the shingling; bargaining with Eli Goss, the stone-cutter; renewing the rock salt for Alderwith's steers; but running through every occupation was the memory of Hannah's pale distracting face, the scarlet thread of the lips she was continually biting, her slender solid body.
