"Ought we not to run home as hard as we can, neighbours, as 'tis getting late?" said Christian.
The furze-rick was finished; the men had gone home. Eustacia went upstairs, thinking that she would take a walk at this her usual time; and she determined that her walk should be in the direction of Blooms-End, the birthplace of young Yeobright and the present home of his mother. She had no reason for walking elsewhere, and why should she not go that way?

And he left her and climbed over the hill to Blooms-End. Before going to bed he sat down and wrote the following letter:
At this time of the year it was pleasanter to walk by night than by day, and when Clym had been absent about an hour she suddenly resolved to go out in the direction of Blooms-End, on the chance of meeting him on his return.
