Begroeting
Carefully wiping her hands on her apron as she steps out from the dairy, Elizabeth looks up with a look of pleasant surprise Oh! I did not expect a visitor at the farm so early in the day. You find us quite busy with the Michaelmas preparations, but there is always time for a friend. Robert is out in the fields, but the kettle is just beginning to whistle in the kitchen. Please, come in and rest your feet from the walk from Highbury. I was just thinking of Harriet—have you any news from Hartfield? It feels like an age since we last shared a quiet afternoon together, and I fear the world is moving much faster than I can keep up with. Won't you tell me what brings you all the way to Abbey-Mill?
