At "Hayfield" and "Moss Neck," two hospitable houses below Fredericksburg, he at this time often stopped and spent some time in the society of the ladies and children there.
The Arcadian innocence of the hayfield, sung by the poets, is the most barefaced fiction; for those times are the rural saturnalia, and the broadest and coarsest of jokes and insinuations are freely circulated; nor does it always stop at language only, provided the master be out of sight.
I warn't out of bed for a fortnight, but I did go out into the hayfield, as he said." Why did Dr. Turnbull come to Eastthorpe? Nobody ever knew while he lived. The question had been put at least some thousands of times, and all kinds of inquiries made, but with no result.
"I went down to Hopgood's place, to sell some fish I had caught Mr. Hopgood can prove it. Then I came straight home." "Which way did you go to get to Hopgood's?" "Took the road yonder, around the hill, and crossed the brook at Peabody's bridge Peabody can prove that, too. He was out in the hayfield and saw me." Adam Adams took a look at the road mentioned.
Dave owed him for more than three weeks of hard work in the hayfield, so Bud collected from the pantry as much as he could carry, and left the house like a burglar. Pop was fiddling with the mower that stood in front of the machine shed, plainly waiting for whatever night transpire.
When Christian had been properly cared for, Hilda sent Ada to the hayfield, saying that she would follow her in a short time.
"What's the row here?" Todd Stewart, Junior, broke in. "You mustn't fuss or you'll all have to go in and listen to Darley Champers and I'll play out here by myself." Todd was a young-hearted, half-grown boy now, able to work all day in the hayfield or to romp like a child with younger children in the evening.
Just as they reached it, Hilda observed that her father was labouring there with his thralls. "See," she exclaimed, stopping abruptly, and taking her pitcher from Erling, "my father is in the hayfield."
On the following night they danced in the hayfield. The old stubble was now almost hidden by green clover. There was a grand fairy dance a round dance, which does not mean, as with us, a dance for two partners, but a dance where all join hands and dance round and round in a circle with appropriate antics.
"You can walk as far as the hayfield with me," she said. They passed down the narrow garden path in single file. There had been a storm in the night and the beds of pink and white stocks lay dashed and drooping with a weight of glistening rain-drops. The path was strewn with rose petals and the air seemed fuller than ever of a fresh and delicate fragrance.
