He
called
to
the
pot
-
boy
to
bring
him
his
hat
,
and
said
,
“
Now
,
Christian
,
I
am
ready
.
”
“
Mr
.
Wildeve
,
”
said
Christian
timidly
,
as
he
turned
to
leave
the
room
,
“
would
you
mind
lending
me
them
wonderful
little
things
that
carry
my
luck
inside
’
em
,
that
I
might
practise
a
bit
by
myself
,
you
know
?
”
He
looked
wistfully
at
the
dice
and
box
lying
on
the
mantlepiece
.
“
Certainly
,
”
said
Wildeve
carelessly
.
“
They
were
only
cut
out
by
some
lad
with
his
knife
,
and
are
worth
nothing
.
”
And
Christian
went
back
and
privately
pocketed
them
.
Wildeve
opened
the
door
and
looked
out
.
The
night
was
warm
and
cloudy
.
“
By
Gad
!
’
tis
dark
,
”
he
continued
.
“
But
I
suppose
we
shall
find
our
way
.
”
“
If
we
should
lose
the
path
it
might
be
awkward
,
”
said
Christian
.
“
A
lantern
is
the
only
shield
that
will
make
it
safe
for
us
.
”
“
Let
’
s
have
a
lantern
by
all
means
.
”
The
stable
lantern
was
fetched
and
lighted
.
Christian
took
up
his
gownpiece
,
and
the
two
set
out
to
ascend
the
hill
.
Within
the
room
the
men
fell
into
chat
till
their
attention
was
for
a
moment
drawn
to
the
chimney
-
corner
.
This
was
large
,
and
,
in
addition
to
its
proper
recess
,
contained
within
its
jambs
,
like
many
on
Egdon
,
a
receding
seat
,
so
that
a
person
might
sit
there
absolutely
unobserved
,
provided
there
was
no
fire
to
light
him
up
,
as
was
the
case
now
and
throughout
the
summer
.
From
the
niche
a
single
object
protruded
into
the
light
from
the
candles
on
the
table
.
It
was
a
clay
pipe
,
and
its
colour
was
reddish
.
The
men
had
been
attracted
to
this
object
by
a
voice
behind
the
pipe
asking
for
a
light
.
“
Upon
my
life
,
it
fairly
startled
me
when
the
man
spoke
!
”
said
Fairway
,
handing
a
candle
.
“
Oh
—
’
tis
the
reddleman
!
You
’
ve
kept
a
quiet
tongue
,
young
man
.
”
“
Yes
,
I
had
nothing
to
say
,
”
observed
Venn
.
In
a
few
minutes
he
arose
and
wished
the
company
good
night
.
