- Then we'll go together.
to gather things.
What kind of things?
Pretty clothes.
You'd like that,
wouldn't you?
Thank you kindly, minister.
Edward.
It's not lack of belief in Thy
will, Father,
but I ask You to marry me now.
Because what I want,
is not for myself.
I want to protect her.
To cherish her.
In my house...
like a flower.
And this I promise
that I shall ask nothing of her.
Nothing...
until she wants to be wife to me.
It seems he's run off.
What's wrong, Jack?
Well, you've given me a long
enough chase.
Go away Mr. Reddin.
What's this I hear about you
and the parson?
- He's going to marry me tomorrow.
- The devil he is.
Who to?
To him!
- What?
- We're going to be wed.
The parson and you?
And Foxy's comin' too.
And he's givin' me a box full
of clothes.
So did I.
Yours are old ones!
- You've got to come and talk to me
while they're dancing. - I can't.
If you don't, I'll tell the parson you
stayed the night at Undern.
And he won't marry you!
You wouldn't do that, Mr. Reddin!
Wouldn't I?
the dancing?
Is your father here?
Well then tell the parson
you're staying with him.
- What went wrong, Mr. Reddin?
- Everything!
I saw you with Mr. Reddin
this afternoon.
I only wanted to say in a sisterly
and Christian spirit
he's not a good man.
Well, that's something anyway!
If you take my advice,
you'll leave him alone.
I cannot.
Oh, why not?
He will not let me.
Hazel, can't you see that I'm in
love with you?
What for be?
There's you, and there's Edward.
Why can't you leave me be?
I never thought I'd come to 40
and be like this.
Be 40?
- I suppose the parson's young.
- Him the right age.
I'll show you who's the right age!
Hands off, Mr. Reddin!
Now come and dance.
Let's see if a man of 40
can't tie you!
What's the good, Mr. Reddin?
I'm promised.
Hazel, you do like me, don't you?
Better than the parson.
Who's that?
Father.
I want to marry your daughter.
First the parson, then the squire. It'll
be the king on his throne next!
Did you hear what I said?
She's set.
Set. Bespoke. Let.
- She has a right to change her mind.
- A bargain's a bargain.
The cake's made, mister,
and so's the bed.
50 pounds!
You should go away with a check
in your pocket if she comes with me.
50 pounds!
It's all I've got in money cash.
Hey, mister, you didn't need to go
and entice me.
I could have...
with beehives from end to end.
The wood I could buy,
and the white paint.
And queens from foreign parts.
A bargain's a bargain, Hazel.
You may not go with this gentleman.
Mind you.
Many's the time in the past
you've gone against me,
against what I've said.
Many a time...
I know you don't like hurting things,
Hazel...
you're hurting me.
It ain't my fault!
I'm always hurtin' things...
ain't my fault.
Edward will look after me, and Foxy,
and the others.
And you, you've got blood on you,
Mr. Reddin!
Well, I'll even forget the hunting
if you check the parson, I promise!
You wouldn't keep it.
Seems I have to go against
you or Edward.
And I cannot go against
Edward.
He set store by me...
and I swore by the mountain.
What?
If I broke that oath...
about the mountain...
finding never a bit of rest...
and Edward thinkin' it
were the wind.
What was it you swore?
To marry the first that comes.
It wasn't you, Mr. Reddin!
It wasn't you!
Bring us back a piece of
wedding cake!
Long live the minister say I!
You'll not get another bite
of that apple!
The animal has no business
in a place of worship.
What for not?
Because not!
Whoever made you made Foxy.
"Let be other sheep I have which
are not of this fold.
"Them also will I bring. "
"We are gathered together here to
witness the union of this man
"and this woman in the
sacred covenant of marriage.
"To hear their vows,
and to seek for them the blessing
of God in whose presence we stand
"Therefore it is fit that we bear in
mind that marriage was ordained of God
"for the increase of mankind
according to His will... "
Mrs. Marston...
Shall I draw the blind, ma'am?
Oh let me in.
On the profession of thy faith
in Christ,
I baptize thee...
in the name of the Father...
and of the Son...
and of the Holy Spirit.
My dear... it was beautiful,
beautiful.
One of the nicest baptisms
I ever saw!
Oh, dear... there's always someone.
Hazel, you'd better go upstairs,
dear.
Good afternoon.
I'd like to see the minister
May I come in?
Oh yes, yes. Do come in.
Such a hot day...
My son won't be a moment.
Can I get you something
to drink, Mr...?
Reddin.
Jack Reddin, of Undern.
If you have a little sherry, perhaps?
I must doubt that we have any of last
Christmas pudding's bottle left...
but I'll go and see.
Hazel?
Or shall I come up?
Leave me be.
You don't want me to.
Meet me at "Hunter's Spinny",
next Sunday, same time as now.
Martha, the best glasses...
Promise.
Why?
Because I say so.
I'm quite put out about that sherry,
but here's some sparkling gooseberry
wine.
Four years old last midsummer.
Oh, you've met my daughter-in-law,
Mrs. Edward Marston?
Allow me...
Quite up, you see!
Are you alright, Hazel?
Edward, there's a gentleman to see
you, dear. Mr. Reddin of Undern.
Ah yes, Mr. Reddin.
- How do you do?
- Pleased to meet you.
I saw a bit of your baptism. Very
amusing. Perhaps I'll come again one day.
You're welcome, Mr. Reddin.
The next time, perhaps you'll find
it even more amusing.
The third time,
you'll be singing hymns with us...
and the fourth time... thank
you mother...
I might even be baptizing you.
You seem very sure of yourself,
Parson.
I'm sure of my faith, Squire.
Sorry, Hazel.
- "The Harper's Charm"?
- It's my mam's book.
Hazel, may I...
may I see it?
"When at once, a little at midnight,
"climbed to the steepest stones on
the top of God's little mountain.
"Lay your shawl
on the "The Devil's Chair"...
"and walk around it... "
- Finish it?
- That's the other way to the sun.
"Ask your wish.
"And if the undertaking is good,
"you will hear the fairy music.
"If you hear it, ever so faintly,
"you can go to the end of your
undertaking.
"And there'll be no tears in it. "
This is a sure charm...
It cannot be broke.
What is this...
"important undertaking"?
Has it anything to do with me?
Hazel, can't you tell me?
If I was caught in a trap, Eddard,
who'd help me out?
God would.
He didn't let the others out.
He does answer prayers, Hazel.
If he did, where would the fox-huntin'
gents be?
And who'd eat rabbit pie?
Hazel, are you really happy here?
Ah... I be.
I'd thought...
you might...
Father?
You're my father...
and mother both.
Goodnight, Hazel.
If I be to go down to
"Hunter's Spinny... "
If I be to go...
let me hear the fairy music.
Mrs. Marston!
Martha, look.
Call your master.
Mother... Hazel is safe.
