I
beg
your
pardon
,
"
said
Oak
to
the
voice
,
"
but
George
was
walking
on
behind
me
with
a
temper
as
mild
as
milk
.
"
Almost
before
he
had
ceased
speaking
,
Oak
was
seized
with
a
misgiving
as
to
whose
ear
was
the
recipient
of
his
answer
.
Nobody
appeared
,
and
he
heard
the
person
retreat
among
the
bushes
.
Gabriel
meditated
,
and
so
deeply
that
he
brought
small
furrows
into
his
forehead
by
sheer
force
of
reverie
.
Where
the
issue
of
an
interview
is
as
likely
to
be
a
vast
change
for
the
worse
as
for
the
better
,
any
initial
difference
from
expectation
causes
nipping
sensations
of
failure
.
Oak
went
up
to
the
door
a
little
abashed
:
his
mental
rehearsal
and
the
reality
had
had
no
common
grounds
of
opening
.
Bathsheba
’
s
aunt
was
indoors
.
"
Will
you
tell
Miss
Everdene
that
somebody
would
be
glad
to
speak
to
her
?
"
said
Mr
.
Oak
.
(
Calling
one
’
s
self
merely
Somebody
,
without
giving
a
name
,
is
not
to
be
taken
as
an
example
of
the
ill
-
breeding
of
the
rural
world
:
it
springs
from
a
refined
modesty
,
of
which
townspeople
,
with
their
cards
and
announcements
,
have
no
notion
whatever
.
)
Bathsheba
was
out
.
The
voice
had
evidently
been
hers
.
"
Will
you
come
in
,
Mr
.
Oak
?
"
"
Oh
,
thank
’
ee
,
"
said
Gabriel
,
following
her
to
the
fireplace
.
"
I
’
ve
brought
a
lamb
for
Miss
Everdene
.
I
thought
she
might
like
one
to
rear
;
girls
do
.
"
"
She
might
,
"
said
Mrs
.
Hurst
,
musingly
;
"
though
she
’
s
only
a
visitor
here
.
If
you
will
wait
a
minute
,
Bathsheba
will
be
in
.
"
"
Yes
,
I
will
wait
,
"
said
Gabriel
,
sitting
down
.
"
The
lamb
isn
’
t
really
the
business
I
came
about
,
Mrs
.
Hurst
.
In
short
,
I
was
going
to
ask
her
if
she
’
d
like
to
be
married
.
"
