"Make me believe it was something more, a sort of prophetic instinct." "The beginning of a feeling that you would like me." "You shall have everything you want." "No worries." "No household cares." "No thought of weather in the harvest." "I wish I could put my feelings into more graceful shape." "Miss Everdene, if you could" "I do not love you, Mr. Boldwood." "Certainly, I must say that." "Say, at least, that you do not refuse me absolutely." "God only knows how much you mean to me." "I don't know what to say." "Then say nothing..." "I must say-- ...and let me speak to you again upon the matter." "I'm afraid they will notice us." "May I call on you tomorrow?" "Oh, no, please." "No, please." "You must give me time." "Any time."

"Tell me, Gabriel, did the men make any observation on my going off with Mr. Boldwood?" "Yes, they did." "Did they think it odd?" "No, miss, not odd." "Well, what did they say?" "That Boldwood's name and your own were likely to be flung over pulpit together." "Oh, that's absolute nonsense." "There's not a word of truth in it." "And I want you to tell them so, Gabriel." "Well, now, Bathsheba...." "Miss Everdene, you mean." "I mean this, Miss Everdene, I mean this." "If Mr. Boldwood really spoke to you of marriage I am not gonna put it about that he didn't just to please you." "I already tried to please you too much for my own good." "I only want you to tell them that I'm not going to marry him." "Not that there'd be any shame in it if I were." "However, I'm not, and I'd be glad if you told them so." "I can say that to them, if you wish, Miss Everdene." "Likewise, I could give an opinion to you on what you've done." "I dare say you can." "But I don't want your opinion." "Well, what is your opinion?" "That it's unworthy." "I'm sorry if that sounds like a reprimand." "Oh, no, not at all." "As far as I'm concerned, a reprimand from you is the same as a compliment from anyone of real judgment." "And where in particular lies my unworthiness?" "In not marrying you, perhaps?" "I long ceased thinking about that." "Or wishing it, I suppose?" "Or wishing it, either." "My opinion is that you are blame for playing pranks on a man like Mr. Boldwood." "Leading a man on you don't care for, for the fun of it." "Just to satisfy your own vanity." "How dare you criticize my personal conduct." "You invited it." "I will not allow any man to criticize me." "I won't have you a moment longer." "Very well." "In that case, I shall be glad to go." "Go then, in heaven's name." "Very good, Miss Everdene." "BATHSHEBA:" "Can't you do anything?" "COGGAN:" "There's only one man in the county that knows the trick." "Well, get him." "Go on, hurry." "Shepherd Oak, missus." "I won't have him on this farm."
