“
I
have
only
been
able
to
get
one
alive
and
fresh
as
he
ought
to
be
,
”
said
Sam
.
“
These
limp
ones
are
two
I
killed
today
at
work
;
but
as
they
don
’
t
die
till
the
sun
goes
down
they
can
’
t
be
very
stale
meat
.
”
The
live
adder
regarded
the
assembled
group
with
a
sinister
look
in
its
small
black
eye
,
and
the
beautiful
brown
and
jet
pattern
on
its
back
seemed
to
intensify
with
indignation
.
Mrs
.
Yeobright
saw
the
creature
,
and
the
creature
saw
her
—
she
quivered
throughout
,
and
averted
her
eyes
.
“
Look
at
that
,
”
murmured
Christian
Cantle
.
“
Neighbours
,
how
do
we
know
but
that
something
of
the
old
serpent
in
God
’
s
garden
,
that
gied
the
apple
to
the
young
woman
with
no
clothes
,
lives
on
in
adders
and
snakes
still
?
Look
at
his
eye
—
for
all
the
world
like
a
villainous
sort
of
black
currant
.
’
Tis
to
be
hoped
he
can
’
t
ill
-
wish
us
!
There
’
s
folks
in
heath
who
’
ve
been
overlooked
already
.
I
will
never
kill
another
adder
as
long
as
I
live
.
”
“
Well
,
’
tis
right
to
be
afeard
of
things
,
if
folks
can
’
t
help
it
,
”
said
Grandfer
Cantle
.
“
’
Twould
have
saved
me
many
a
brave
danger
in
my
time
.
”
“
I
fancy
I
heard
something
outside
the
shed
,
”
said
Christian
.
“
I
wish
troubles
would
come
in
the
daytime
,
for
then
a
man
could
show
his
courage
,
and
hardly
beg
for
mercy
of
the
most
broomstick
old
woman
he
should
see
,
if
he
was
a
brave
man
,
and
able
to
run
out
of
her
sight
!
”
“
Even
such
an
ignorant
fellow
as
I
should
know
better
than
do
that
,
”
said
Sam
.
“
Well
,
there
’
s
calamities
where
we
least
expect
it
,
whether
or
no
.
Neighbours
,
if
Mrs
.
Yeobright
were
to
die
,
d
’
ye
think
we
should
be
took
up
and
tried
for
the
manslaughter
of
a
woman
?
”
“
No
,
they
couldn
’
t
bring
it
in
as
that
,
”
said
Sam
,
“
unless
they
could
prove
we
had
been
poachers
at
some
time
of
our
lives
.
But
she
’
ll
fetch
round
.
”
“
Now
,
if
I
had
been
stung
by
ten
adders
I
should
hardly
have
lost
a
day
’
s
work
for
’
t
,
”
said
Grandfer
Cantle
.
“
Such
is
my
spirit
when
I
am
on
my
mettle
.
But
perhaps
’
tis
natural
in
a
man
trained
for
war
.
Yes
,
I
’
ve
gone
through
a
good
deal
;
but
nothing
ever
came
amiss
to
me
after
I
joined
the
Locals
in
four
.
”
He
shook
his
head
and
smiled
at
a
mental
picture
of
himself
in
uniform
.
“
I
was
always
first
in
the
most
galliantest
scrapes
in
my
younger
days
!
”
