delightedly:

〃Ive got it wrong; Ive got it wrong。〃

〃Oh; my sirs;〃 said Tilly entering; 〃what a racket!〃

Brangwen hushed the child and Anna flipped and danced on。 She

loved her wild bursts of rowdiness with her father。 Tilly hated

it; Mrs。 Brangwen did not mind。

Anna did not care much for other children。 She domineered

them; she treated them as if they were extremely young and

incapable; to her they were little people; they were not her

equals。 So she was mostly alone; flying round the farm;

entertaining the farm…hands and Tilly and the servant…girl;

whirring on and never ceasing。

She loved driving with Brangwen in the trap。 Then; sitting

high up and bowling along; her passion for eminence and

dominance was satisfied。 She was like a little savage in her

arrogance。 She thought her father important; she was installed

beside him on high。 And they spanked along; beside the high;

flourishing hedge…tops; surveying the activity of the

countryside。 When people shouted a greeting to him from the road

below; and Brangwen shouted jovially back; her little voice was

soon heard shrilling along with his; followed by her chuckling

laugh; when she looked up at her father with bright eyes; and

they laughed at each other。 And soon it was the custom for the

passerby to sing out: 〃How are ter; Tom? Well; my lady!〃 or

else; 〃Mornin; Tom; mornin; my Lass!〃 or else; 〃Youre off

together then?〃 or else; 〃Youre lookin rarely; you two。〃

Anna would respond; with her father: 〃How are you; John!

Good mornin; William! Ay; makin for Derby;〃 shrilling

as loudly as she could。 Though often; in response to 〃Youre off

out a bit then;〃 she would reply; 〃Yes; we are;〃 to the great

joy of all。 She did not like the people who saluted him and did

not salute her。

She went into the public…house with him; if he had to call;

and often sat beside him in the bar…parlour as he drank his beer

or brandy。 The landladies paid court to her; in the obsequious

way landladies have。

〃Well; little lady; an whats your name?〃
