This
was
the
last
drachm
required
to
turn
the
scale
of
her
indecision
.
Declare
the
past
to
him
by
word
of
mouth
she
could
not
;
but
there
was
another
way
.
She
sat
down
and
wrote
on
the
four
pages
of
a
note
-
sheet
a
succinct
narrative
of
those
events
of
three
or
four
years
ago
,
put
it
into
an
envelope
,
and
directed
it
to
Clare
.
Then
,
lest
the
flesh
should
again
be
weak
,
she
crept
upstairs
without
any
shoes
and
slipped
the
note
under
his
door
.
Her
night
was
a
broken
one
,
as
it
well
might
be
,
and
she
listened
for
the
first
faint
noise
overhead
.
It
came
,
as
usual
;
he
descended
,
as
usual
.
She
descended
.
He
met
her
at
the
bottom
of
the
stairs
and
kissed
her
.
Surely
it
was
as
warmly
as
ever
!
He
looked
a
little
disturbed
and
worn
,
she
thought
.
But
he
said
not
a
word
to
her
about
her
revelation
,
even
when
they
were
alone
.
Could
he
have
had
it
?
Unless
he
began
the
subject
she
felt
that
she
could
say
nothing
.
So
the
day
passed
,
and
it
was
evident
that
whatever
he
thought
he
meant
to
keep
to
himself
.
Yet
he
was
frank
and
affectionate
as
before
.
Could
it
be
that
her
doubts
were
childish
?
that
he
forgave
her
;
that
he
loved
her
for
what
she
was
,
just
as
she
was
,
and
smiled
at
her
disquiet
as
at
a
foolish
nightmare
?
Had
he
really
received
her
note
?
She
glanced
into
his
room
,
and
could
see
nothing
of
it
.
It
might
be
that
he
forgave
her
.
But
even
if
he
had
not
received
it
she
had
a
sudden
enthusiastic
trust
that
he
surely
would
forgive
her
.
Every
morning
and
night
he
was
the
same
,
and
thus
New
Year
’
s
Eve
broke
—
the
wedding
day
.
The
lovers
did
not
rise
at
milking
-
time
,
having
through
the
whole
of
this
last
week
of
their
sojourn
at
the
dairy
been
accorded
something
of
the
position
of
guests
,
Tess
being
honoured
with
a
room
of
her
own
.
When
they
arrived
downstairs
at
breakfast
-
time
they
were
surprised
to
see
what
effects
had
been
produced
in
the
large
kitchen
for
their
glory
since
they
had
last
beheld
it
.
At
some
unnatural
hour
of
the
morning
the
dairyman
had
caused
the
yawning
chimney
-
corner
to
be
whitened
,
and
the
brick
hearth
reddened
,
and
a
blazing
yellow
damask
blower
to
be
hung
across
the
arch
in
place
of
the
old
grimy
blue
cotton
one
with
a
black
sprig
pattern
which
had
formerly
done
duty
there
.
This
renovated
aspect
of
what
was
the
focus
indeed
of
the
room
on
a
full
winter
morning
,
threw
a
smiling
demeanour
over
the
whole
apartment
.
“
I
was
determined
to
do
summat
in
honour
o
’
t
”
,
said
the
dairyman
.
“
And
as
you
wouldn
’
t
hear
of
my
gieing
a
rattling
good
randy
wi
’
fiddles
and
bass
-
viols
complete
,
as
we
should
ha
’
done
in
old
times
,
this
was
all
I
could
think
o
’
as
a
noiseless
thing
.
”
Tess
’
s
friends
lived
so
far
off
that
none
could
conveniently
have
been
present
at
the
ceremony
,
even
had
any
been
asked
;
but
as
a
fact
nobody
was
invited
from
Marlott
.
As
for
Angel
’
s
family
,
he
had
written
and
duly
informed
them
of
the
time
,
and
assured
them
that
he
would
be
glad
to
see
one
at
least
of
them
there
for
the
day
if
he
would
like
to
come
.
His
brothers
had
not
replied
at
all
,
seeming
to
be
indignant
with
him
;
while
his
father
and
mother
had
written
a
rather
sad
letter
,
deploring
his
precipitancy
in
rushing
into
marriage
,
but
making
the
best
of
the
matter
by
saying
that
,
though
a
dairywoman
was
the
last
daughter
-
in
-
law
they
could
have
expected
,
their
son
had
arrived
at
an
age
which
he
might
be
supposed
to
be
the
best
judge
.
This
coolness
in
his
relations
distressed
Clare
less
than
it
would
have
done
had
he
been
without
the
grand
card
with
which
he
meant
to
surprise
them
ere
long
.
To
produce
Tess
,
fresh
from
the
dairy
,
as
a
d
’
Urberville
and
a
lady
,
he
had
felt
to
be
temerarious
and
risky
;
hence
he
had
concealed
her
lineage
till
such
time
as
,
familiarized
with
worldly
ways
by
a
few
months
’
travel
and
reading
with
him
,
he
could
take
her
on
a
visit
to
his
parents
,
and
impart
the
knowledge
while
triumphantly
producing
her
as
worthy
of
such
an
ancient
line
.
It
was
a
pretty
lover
’
s
dream
,
if
no
more
.
Perhaps
Tess
’
s
lineage
had
more
value
for
himself
than
for
anybody
in
the
world
beside
.
