“
Good
Lord
!
I
heard
of
this
before
,
but
didn
’
t
believe
it
.
When
did
she
say
so
?
”
Wildeve
began
humming
as
the
reddleman
had
done
.
“
I
don
’
t
believe
it
now
,
”
cried
Venn
.
“
Ru
-
um
-
tum
-
tum
,
”
sang
Wildeve
.
“
O
Lord
—
how
we
can
imitate
!
”
said
Venn
contemptuously
.
“
I
’
ll
have
this
out
.
I
’
ll
go
straight
to
her
.
”
Diggory
withdrew
with
an
emphatic
step
,
Wildeve
’
s
eye
passing
over
his
form
in
withering
derision
,
as
if
he
were
no
more
than
a
heath
-
cropper
.
When
the
reddleman
’
s
figure
could
no
longer
be
seen
,
Wildeve
himself
descended
and
plunged
into
the
rayless
hollow
of
the
vale
.
To
lose
the
two
women
—
he
who
had
been
the
well
-
beloved
of
both
—
was
too
ironical
an
issue
to
be
endured
.
He
could
only
decently
save
himself
by
Thomasin
;
and
once
he
became
her
husband
,
Eustacia
’
s
repentance
,
he
thought
,
would
set
in
for
a
long
and
bitter
term
.
It
was
no
wonder
that
Wildeve
,
ignorant
of
the
new
man
at
the
back
of
the
scene
,
should
have
supposed
Eustacia
to
be
playing
a
part
.
To
believe
that
the
letter
was
not
the
result
of
some
momentary
pique
,
to
infer
that
she
really
gave
him
up
to
Thomasin
,
would
have
required
previous
knowledge
of
her
transfiguration
by
that
man
’
s
influence
.
Who
was
to
know
that
she
had
grown
generous
in
the
greediness
of
a
new
passion
,
that
in
coveting
one
cousin
she
was
dealing
liberally
with
another
,
that
in
her
eagerness
to
appropriate
she
gave
way
?
Full
of
this
resolve
to
marry
in
haste
,
and
wring
the
heart
of
the
proud
girl
,
Wildeve
went
his
way
.
Meanwhile
Diggory
Venn
had
returned
to
his
van
,
where
he
stood
looking
thoughtfully
into
the
stove
.
A
new
vista
was
opened
up
to
him
.
But
,
however
promising
Mrs
.
Yeobright
’
s
views
of
him
might
be
as
a
candidate
for
her
niece
’
s
hand
,
one
condition
was
indispensable
to
the
favour
of
Thomasin
herself
,
and
that
was
a
renunciation
of
his
present
wild
mode
of
life
.
In
this
he
saw
little
difficulty
.
