and went back to visions. In fancy, he saw the trustful, pretty creature, who was going to join her<br />

life to his: saw himself and her stealing forth at night, walking over the moor under the moon, he<br />

with his arm round her, and carrying her new garments, till, in some far-off wood, when dawn<br />

three were like Hal<strong>lida</strong>y's, high and cheerful; they stood up straight, shook hands with a quick<br />

movement, looked at Ashurst critically, away again at once, and began to talk what they were<br />

going to do in the afternoon. A regular Diana and attendant nymphs! After the farm this crisp,<br />
