Many also have perished, have erred, and sinned, for women.... O ye men, how can it be but women should be strong, seeing they do thus?\"– ESDRAS.  \nI  \nThe schoolmaster was leaving the village, and everybody seemed sorry. The miller at Cresscombe lent him the small white tilted cart and horse to carry his goods to the city of his destination, about twenty miles off, such a vehicle proving of quite sufficient size for the departing teacher's effects. For the schoolhouse had been partly furnished by the managers, and the only cumbersome article possessed by the master, in addition to the packing-case of books, was a cottage piano that he had bought at an auction during the year in which he thought of learning instrumental music. But the enthusiasm having waned he had never acquired any skill in playing, and the purchased article had been a perpetual trouble to him ever since in moving house.  \nThe rector had gone away for the day, being aman who disliked the sight of changes. He did not mean to return till the evening, when the new school-teacher would have  \narrived and settled in, and everything would be smooth again.  \nThe blacksmith, the farm bailiff, and the schoolmaster himself were standing in perplexed attitudes in the parlour before the instrument. The master had remarked that even if he got it into the cart he should not know what to do with it on his arrival at Christminster, the city he was bound for, since he was only going into temporary lodgings just at first.  \nA little boy of eleven, who had been thoughtfully assisting in the packing, joined the group of men, and as they rubbed their chins he spoke up, blushing atthe sound of his own voice: \"Aunt have got a great fuel-house, and it could be put there, perhaps, till you've found a place to settle in, sir.\"  \n\"A proper good notion,\" said the blacksmith.  \nIt was decided that a deputation should wait on the boy's aunt--an old maiden resident--and ask her if she would house the piano till Mr. Phillotson should send for it. The smith and the bailiff started to see about the practicability of the suggested shelter, and the boy and the schoolmaster were left standing alone.  \n\"Sorry I am going, Jude?\" asked the latter kindly.  \nTears rose into the boy's eyes, for he was not among the regular day scholars, who came unromantically close to the schoolmaster's life, but one who had attended the night school only during the present teacher's term of office. The regular scholars, if the truth must be told, stood at the present moment afar off, like certain historic disciples, indisposed to any enthusiastic volunteering of aid.  \nThe boy awkwardly opened the book he held in his hand, which Mr. Phillotson had bestowed on him as a parting gift, and admitted that he was sorry.  \n\"So am I,\" said Mr. Phillotson.  \n\"Why do you go, sir?\" asked the boy.  \n\"Ah–that would be a long story. You wouldn't understand my reasons, Jude. You will, perhaps, when you are older.\"  \n\"I think I should now, sir.\"  \n\"Well–don't speak of this everywhere. You know what a university is, and a university degree? It isthe necessaryhallmark of a man who wants to do anything in teaching. My scheme, or dream, is to be a university graduate, and then to be ordained. By going to live at Christminster, or near it, Ishall be at headquarters, so to speak, and ifmy scheme is practicable at all, I consider that being on the spot will afford me a better chance of carrying it out than I should have elsewhere.\"  \nThe smith and his companion returned. Old Miss Fawley's fuel-house was dry, and eminently practicable; and she seemed willing to give the instrument","cbCaikuOJ15Mwu3v","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikuOJ15Mwu3v","pdf",1491512,236,"English","# Part First\n## At Marygreen","[{\"question\":\"Why does the schoolmaster leave Marygreen?\",\"answer\":\"He is going to Christminster to pursue a university education and eventual ordination, aiming to improve his chances by being near the center of his plans.\"},{\"question\":\"What object does the schoolmaster struggle to transport?\",\"answer\":\"A cottage piano he bought at an auction proves troublesome to move, so others help figure out where it can be temporarily stored.\"},{\"question\":\"How does Jude react to the schoolmaster’s departure?\",\"answer\":\"Jude is tearful and thoughtful, returning to the village well and reflecting on how the schoolmaster will not draw there again.\"}]","JUDE THE OBSCURE - At Marygreen - Part First | PDF",1792387376,363]
