Regatta At Argenteuil
you want to ask for edification on these things of moment, there's a very earnest good man going to preach a charity-sermon to-day in the parish you are going to - Mr Clare of Emminster. I'm not of his persuasion now, but he's a good man, and he'll expound as well as any parson I know. 'Twas he began the work in me.' ¡¡¡¡But Tess did not answer; she throbbingly resumed her walk, her eyes fixed on the ground. `Pooh - I don't believe God said such things!' she murmured contemptuously when her flush had died away. ¡¡¡¡A plume of smoke soared up suddenly from her father's chimney, the sight of which made her heart ache. The aspect of the interior, when she reached it, made her heart ache more. Her mother, who had just come down stairs, turned to greet her from the fireplace, where she was kindling barked-oak twigs under the breakfast kettle. The young children were still above, as was also her father, it being Sunday morning, when he felt justified in lying an additional half-hour. ¡¡¡¡`Well! - my dear Tess!' exclaimed her surprised mother, jumping up and kissing the girl. `How be ye? I didn't see you till you was in upon me! Have you come home to be married?' ¡¡¡¡`No, I have not come for that, mother.' ¡¡¡¡`Then for a holiday?' ¡¡¡¡`Yes - for a holiday; for a long holiday,' said Tess. ¡¡¡¡`What, isn't your cousin going to do the handsome thing?' ¡¡¡¡`He's not my cousin and he's not going to marry me.' ¡¡¡¡Her mother eyed her narrowly. ¡¡¡¡`Come, you have not told me all,' she said. ¡¡¡¡Then Tess went up to her mother, put her face upon Joan's neck, and told.
