"You see, he's not a coarse, ignorant man, for he was well brought up." said Matthew, dubiously. "'Twas only wildness that made him a soldier, and maids rather like your man of sin." "Now, Cain Ball." said Gabriel restlessly, "can you swear in the most awful form that the woman you saw was Miss Everdene?"

"What's a-brewing, Henrey?" asked Jacob and Mark Clark. "Baily Pennyways Baily Pennyways I said so; yes, I said so!" "What, found out stealing anything?" "Stealing it is. The news is, that after Miss Everdene got home she went out again to see all was safe, as she usually do, and coming in found Baily Pennyways creeping down the granary steps with half a a bushel of barley.

Boldwood, looking into the distant meadows, saw there three figures. They were those of Miss Everdene, Shepherd Oak, and Cainy Ball. When Bathsheba's figure shone upon the farmer's eyes it lighted him up as the moon lights up a great tower.

"Can you ask Miss Everdene knowing as you do what my offence is based on?" "If you do care so much for a silly trifle of that kind, then, I don't mind doing it," she uncertainly and doubtingly answered.
