In
the
interval
which
elapsed
before
the
calves
were
sold
there
was
,
of
course
,
little
milking
to
be
done
,
but
as
soon
as
the
calf
had
been
taken
away
the
milkmaids
would
have
to
set
to
work
as
usual
.
Returning
from
one
of
these
dark
walks
they
reached
a
great
gravel
-
cliff
immediately
over
the
levels
,
where
they
stood
still
and
listened
.
The
water
was
now
high
in
the
streams
,
squirting
through
the
weirs
,
and
tinkling
under
culverts
;
the
smallest
gullies
were
all
full
;
there
was
no
taking
short
cuts
anywhere
,
and
foot
-
passengers
were
compelled
to
follow
the
permanent
ways
.
From
the
whole
extent
of
the
invisible
vale
came
a
multitudinous
intonation
;
it
forced
upon
their
fancy
that
a
great
city
lay
below
them
,
and
that
the
murmur
was
the
vociferation
of
its
populace
.
“
It
seems
like
tens
of
thousands
of
them
,
”
said
Tess
;
“
holding
public
-
meetings
in
their
market
-
places
,
arguing
,
preaching
,
quarrelling
,
sobbing
,
groaning
,
praying
,
and
cursing
.
”
Clare
was
not
particularly
heeding
.
“
Did
Crick
speak
to
you
today
,
dear
,
about
his
not
wanting
much
assistance
during
the
winter
months
?
”
“
No
.
”
“
The
cows
are
going
dry
rapidly
.
”
“
Yes
.
Six
of
seven
went
to
the
straw
-
barton
yesterday
,
and
three
the
day
before
,
making
nearly
twenty
in
the
straw
already
.
Ah
—
is
it
that
the
farmer
don
’
t
want
my
help
for
the
calving
?
O
,
I
am
not
wanted
here
any
more
!
And
I
have
tried
so
hard
to
—
”
“
Crick
didn
’
t
exactly
say
that
he
would
no
longer
require
you
.
But
,
knowing
what
our
relations
were
,
he
said
in
the
most
good
-
natured
and
respectful
manner
possible
that
he
supposed
on
my
leaving
at
Christmas
I
should
take
you
with
me
,
and
on
my
asking
what
he
would
do
without
you
he
merely
observed
that
,
as
a
matter
of
fact
,
it
was
a
time
of
year
when
he
could
do
with
a
very
little
female
help
.
I
am
afraid
I
was
sinner
enough
to
feel
rather
glad
that
he
was
in
this
way
forcing
your
hand
.
