The Agricultural College at Cirencester, of which you have so often heard, lies thereaway, a few miles to our left; and there lads go to learn to farm as no men in the world, save English and Scotch, know how to farm. But what rock are we on now? On rock that is much softer than that on the other side of the oolite hills: much softer, because it is much newer.
An Augustinian monk, ruddy, burly, and sunburnt, stood in the farm-yard, to receive an account of the day's work, and doffing his cap, Ambrose asked whether Winchester were near. "Three mile or thereaway, my good lad," said the monk; "thou'lt see the towers an ye mount the hill. Whence art thou?" he added, looking at the two young strangers. "Scholars? The College elects not yet a while."

Then he had another good look all round, and presently I see him put his hand up to his eyes and stand looking away down to leeward. `Do you see anythink, sir? says I. And he says still with his hand up shadin' his eyes `I don't know, Chips, says he, `but I'm most certain, says he, `that one of them boats is thereaway, pointin' with his finger away down to leeward. `It's too dark and thick down there to see werry distinctly, he says, `but every now and then I keeps fancyin' I can see a small dark spot like a boat's sail showin' up in the middle of the haze, says he.
