"I can't skim I can't!" she said, turning away from him. Not to agitate and hinder her longer, the considerate Clare began talking in a more general way: You quite misapprehend my parents. They are the most simple-mannered people alive, and quite unambitious. They are two of the few remaining Evangelical school. Tessy, are you an Evangelical?" "I don't know."

"O, Tessy!" There were signs that it was an exquisite relief to her to hear the impatient exclamation, though she had resolved so intrepidly to let generosity make one bid against herself. That was now done, and she had not the power to attempt self-immolation a second time then. They were joined by a milker from one of the cottages, and no more was said on that which concerned them so deeply.

"If you will let it pass, please, Tessy, I will give you time," he said. "It was very abrupt to come home and speak to you all at once. I'll not allude to it again for a while." She again took up the shining skimmer, held it beneath the pump, and began anew.

"Do you know that I have undergone three-quarters of this labour entirely for the sake of the fourth quarter?" "No." "I did not expect such an event to-day." "Nor I... The water came up so sudden." That the rise in the water was what she understood him to refer to, the state of breathing belied. Clare stood still and inclinced his face towards hers. "O Tessy!" he exclaimed.

"I did not think rightly of you I did not see you as you were!" he continued to plead. "I have learnt to since, dearest Tessy mine!" "Too late, too late!" she said, waving her hand in the impatience of a person whose tortures cause every instant to seem an hour. "Don't come close to me, Angel! No you must not. Keep away."

Tess was not a hysterical girl by any means, and he was surprised. "Why do you cry, dearest?" "I can't tell quite! I am so glad to think of being yours, and making you happy!" "But this does not seem very much like gladness, my Tessy!" "I mean I cry because I have broken down in my vow! I said I would die unmarried!" "But, if you love me you would like me to be your husband?" "Yes, yes, yes!

"It is Mademoiselle de Clermont, who is looking for me." Taranne pooh-poohed him. "Nonsense. It is Madame de Tessy, who is looking for me." "It might be Mademoiselle Nivelle, looking for me," Oriol suggested, fatuously. Choisy, Gironne, Albret, Montaubert each in turn offered a possible name for the unknown. Chavernay would have none of their suggestions. "No, no. That is not any one we know.

Tess could not get on with her digging after this; she felt restless; she wondered if he had gone back to her father's house; and taking the fork in her hand proceeded homewards. Some twenty yards from the house she was met by one of her sisters. "O, Tessy what do you think!

"Tessy don't you love me ever so little now?" "I'm grateful," she reluctantly admitted. "But I fear I do not " The sudden vision of his passion for herself as a factor in this result so distressed her that, beginning with one slow tear, and then following with another, she wept outright. "Don't cry, dear, dear one! Now sit down here, and wait till I come."

I'll go away to swear and ah, can I! to keep away." Then, suddenly: "One clasp, Tessy one! Only for old friendship " "I am without defence. Alec! A good man's honour is in my keeping think be ashamed!" "Pooh! Well, yes yes!" He clenched his lips, mortified with himself for his weakness. His eyes were equally barren of worldly and religious faith.
