Présentation de l'éditeur

Rector lingered for a space, enjoying the quiet pastoral beauty of the scene, and glancing, too, with a certain satisfaction at the heavy crop of hay, a considerable portion of which was on his own glebeland. Suddenly the look of tranquil content upon his feakires changed, to be replaced by one of impatience, almost of annoyance. From a mass of gray buildings beyond the river, just discernible among the trees surrounding it, the deep tone of a single bell floated up with the breeze. One two three; one two three; one two three; and then a longer pause, and nine strokes, repeated at equal intervals. .T he Rector of A bbotsbury listened, and his face I wore the expression of one who wakes from a pleasant I dream to find himself confronted by an unpleasant I reality. 1T he Angelu Sfhe said to himself, half aloud; and then he turned and continued his walk through thej churchyard, and passed through a little gate which led into the Rectory garden. The Rectory at A bbotsbury was a pleasant abode enough. The house, indeed, more resembled the residence of a country squire than I that of a clergyman. The solid, square building stood above a terraced garden looking over the Valley of the Trent and across a rich agricultural country to th heather-clad ridge of Cannock Chase on the opposit horizon.
