As

soon

as

she

had

entered

the

field

Troy

saw

her

,

and

sticking

his

pitchfork

into

the

ground

and

picking

up

his

crop

or

cane

,

he

came

forward

.

Bathsheba

blushed

with

half

-

angry

embarrassment

,

and

adjusted

her

eyes

as

well

as

her

feet

to

the

direct

line

of

her

path

.

"

Ah

,

Miss

Everdene

!

"

said

the

sergeant

,

touching

his

diminutive

cap

.

"

Little

did

I

think

it

was

you

I

was

speaking

to

the

other

night

.

And

yet

,

if

I

had

reflected

,

the

’

Queen

of

the

Corn

-

market

’

(

truth

is

truth

at

any

hour

of

the

day

or

night

,

and

I

heard

you

so

named

in

Casterbridge

yesterday

)

,

the

’

Queen

of

the

Corn

-

market

.

’

I

say

,

could

be

no

other

woman

.

I

step

across

now

to

beg

your

forgiveness

a

thousand

times

for

having

been

led

by

my

feelings

to

express

myself

too

strongly

for

a

stranger

.

To

be

sure

I

am

no

stranger

to

the

place

—

I

am

Sergeant

Troy

,

as

I

told

you

,

and

I

have

assisted

your

uncle

in

these

fields

no

end

of

times

when

I

was

a

lad

.

I

have

been

doing

the

same

for

you

to

-

day

.

"

"

I

suppose

I

must

thank

you

for

that

,

Sergeant

Troy

,

"

said

the

Queen

of

the

Corn

-

market

,

in

an

indifferently

grateful

tone

The

sergeant

looked

hurt

and

sad

.

"

Indeed

you

must

not

,

Miss

Everdene

,

"

he

said

.

"

Why

could

you

think

such

a

thing

necessary

?

"

"

I

am

glad

it

is

not

.

"

"

Why

?

if

I

may

ask

without

offence

.

"

"

Because

I

don

’

t

much

want

to

thank

you

for

anything

.

I

am

afraid

I

have

made

a

hole

with

my

tongue

that

my

heart

will

never

mend

.

O

these

intolerable

times

:

that

ill

-

luck

should

follow

a

man

for

honestly

telling

a

woman

she

is

beautiful

!

’

Twas

the

most

I

said

—

you

must

own

that

;

and

the

least

I

could

say

—

that

I

own

myself

.

"

"

There

is

some

talk

I

could

do

without

more

easily

than

money

.

"

"

Indeed

.

That

remark

is

a

sort

of

digression

.
