I woke early that morning, a great thought pressing upon me.

I had made my decision.

I knew what I wanted, and today I would seize it.

Fortune favored the brave, didn't it?

Mr.

Ryder, I want to hear your thoughts on the book I lent you.

Oh, I've made little progress.

Or is it that you're reading? You won't know it.

It's far too trivial for her taste.

Would you like the preserves, Miss Bennet?

I recommend the strawberry.

Oh, thank you. The marmalade is most excellent.

Mr Hayward, I am heartened to see you out in public so soon after your

disappointment with Miss Baxter.

The whole situation was so publicly played out, I would have hidden myself

for a year at least with the humiliation of it all.

You are brave. On the contrary, things can happen to any of us, can't they?

Tippers, Miss Bingley.

Pass the coffee pot.

It's empty.

It's quite hard to imagine that later today we will see the sea. I think I

be the first in my family to climb a mountain. I think you're right. It will

disappoint, Miss Bennett.

I can assure you that.

It's extraordinary to think that we'll be following in Mr Wordsworth's steps,

that we'll stand where he stood. She stood, actually, with his sister at

Climbscastle.

And so our little party has expanded.

Yes.

I know it is not polite of me to say, but I do not care much for Miss Bingley.

Nor I.

I get the feeling that at any moment she might ask me to fetch her coat or

polish her shoes.

Well, you'd have to be in possession of 10 ,000 a year to win the good opinion

of Caroline Bingley.

Do you think money is important, Miss Bennet? You know, Lizzie used to say

it was only when she caught sight of Pemberley that she realised how much she

loved Mr Darcy.

Six to one odds on Slim and Spritely at the 420 in York next Tuesday.

On the flat?

Yes.

Well, it's a shame it isn't Newmarket, but you must surely take the option.

That I will, Miss Bennet, and so must you.

Mr Hurst?

Oh, what a good idea.

Put

some

effort into it, Hayward.

You could do with loosening up.

Tom, I wondered whether you and I might find some time to discuss this legal

matter today.

Of course.

I'd be delighted. Come along. The mountain will not wait.

Let's go.

Miss Bingley. Steady on. Steady on.

Miss Bennett.

Here.

Honeysuckle.

Very poisonous to dogs. But not bears.

Not bears.

Dogs and humans.

Funny, although it's called honeysuckle, if you were to suckle on the berries.

It would leave you quite sick.

That's an accident.

What I meant to say was, thank you.

My pleasure.

Miss Bennet.

Oh. I picked this for you.

Oh.

Primrose. The last two primroses of the season.

One for you and one for Miss Bingley.

Oh. Very thoughtful.

You must have a fact about primroses, Miss Bennet.

Oh, oh, oh, I have to think.

The first to eat a primrose, they say, will be the first to marry.

Oh,

they have hairy undersides.

I beg your pardon?

Primrose leaves.

There's also something about fairies. I probably should have led with that.

Miss Bennett, you always make me see the world in a new light.

Oh.

Oh, how.

Shall we?

I do hope the hearse are not finding it too taxing.

I offered Mrs Hurst my arm when we forded the string, but she brushed me

quite brusquely.

She obviously possesses the same gentle charm as her sister.

Look at this!

Isn't it marvellous? Really, really is.

I think we'll have to accompany the Hursts back down.

Really? They have no wish to continue, but unfortunately no recollection of the

path we walked to get here. What if they just head?

Downwards? Well, the inn will be peaceful this afternoon.

Everyone will be out.

Very good.

We shouldn't risk the hearth getting lost. No.

Are you happy to continue without us, Mary?

Of course. I want to hear all about the view when you return and take good care

of her, won't you? I will.

I'll raise you down.

You're on.

Onwards we go!

Wait for me!

I realised the Solway first, and then Scotland.

And then beyond that?

Beyond that is the sea.

What would your mother say?

She could see you now.

She would likely tell me that the winds had ruined my hair.

The harshness of the landscape is almost overwhelming.

It is. It reminds me how small and insignificant we are.

Now, in the blink of an eye, we, everything that we have created, will be

Do you think there's a lesson here, Miss Bennet?

That during our short time on this earth, we should be brave.

Follow our hearts.

Perhaps there is.

Perhaps now would be a good time to continue our conversation from the boat

yesterday. Well, I... Yes.

Though... Though

I

spend so much of my time absorbed in poetry when it comes to my own

I do not always find it easy knowing where to begin.

Miss Bennet.

Mary.

I am most glad that we were able to see this.

To be here together.

As am I.

You know that I've grown so fond of you.

So fond of you during our time together.

And are you?

There is no one I long to talk to like I do you.

No.

No one who makes me feel more like me.

If that makes any sense at all. It does, yes, it does.

Absolutely done.

I wondered if you might... Tom!

If, if, if I might... Tom, I beg a word with you. William, please give us a

moment. We're just in the middle of a conversation.

I'm afraid I really must insist.

I'll be brief.

It is very important.

We will continue Now

Tom we discuss my

Do you know what legal matter Mr Ryder wished to speak to Mr Hayward about so

urgently?

Something to do with his aunt, Lady Catherine de Bourgh. I... I... I could

wait.

Evidently not.

Excuse us.

Business talk, I'm afraid.

And is the matter resolved?

Yes.

Yes, I'd say it is.

Yes.

Would you like an egg?

Ah,

now.

What were you saying, Mr Hayward, when Mr Ryder came over? I'm sorry.

I cannot do this anymore.

My circumstances have changed.

What has happened?

Please forgive me.

Miss Bennet.

Mr Hayward?

Miss Bennet, shall we take in the views and see what inspiration Wordsworth can

give us?

I wandered lonely as a cloud that floats on high, oh, veiled and hills,

when all at once I saw a crowd, a host of gold and daffodils,

beside the lake, beneath the trees, fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

continuous as the stars that shine and twinkle on the milky way.

They stretch to never -ending line along the margin of a bay.

I think that might be the inn.

It's moving.

Or a sheep.

How does Mr. Hayward seem to you? Is he quite all right?

Mr. Hayward? I think so.

Mr. Ryder. Mr.

Hayward. A word.

One moment.

Now.

Mr. Hayward.

A whole terrain of this.

Understood.

We need to make our way down the mountain.

What? Why?

What has happened?

There's a storm coming in. But we've only just arrived.

And we need to rest before heading back down.

Nevertheless, the storm is brewing.

We need to start our descent immediately.

How does he know?

He says there's been a change in the air.

I can't feel it. Well, he can, and he is our guide.

So we should leave.

I was only saying that I could not feel... Please, let us gather our

Hayward, I don't think we need to leave immediately.

Earlier it seemed as though a storm was brewing and nothing happened.

Yes, and this guide is not the sharpest fellow I've ever met, so I say we stay

here a little longer. He knows the skies and he knows the area, Miss Bingley.

What do you think, Miss Bennet?

Can you imagine what it would be like to experience a storm from up here? To

watch it come in?

Yes, that would be quite unforgettable.

And did Wordsworth himself?

Not tell us that no traveller should grudge a little inconvenience to witness

such a sight as a storm.

It is a privilege to witness such a demonstration of nature's power.

I'm not sure what privilege there is in being soaked to the skin.

A little rain is of no concern to me. Well, you are not the only person here.

think we should stay a while longer, and I think we should experience the storm

just as well as we did.

That is the spirit, Miss Bennet. But our guide has told us that we should leave.

Miss Bennet, I appeal to your rational mind.

Right, I am leaving this minute and I suggest you follow.

Or else I will inform the others they have a rather long wait for you.

This is not like you at all. Oh!

Oh, it is I who has changed, is it?

Yes. Well, perhaps I'm tired of my old character. I wish to try a new one.

I'm sorry to hear that.

I was fond of the old Mary.

I shall be sure to tell her that.

For she has wondered many times today what your true feelings were.

Sometimes in life we must seize the moment and we must finish what we set

do without letting anything get in our way.

I am sorry to have disappointed him.

There was a roaring in the wind all night The rain came heavy and fell in

Quite extraordinary

Magnificent! Nevertheless, I think we should head back.

Is this not the most extraordinary sight you've ever laid eyes upon?

We need to move, quickly!

Sorry.

Please stay close.

I told Mrs. Gardner I wanted to talk to you. My intent is to keep my word.

Very slippery.

Quite carefully.

I'll go ahead and find the safest way down. Hey, don't worry. I know the

They're taking too long. Do you think something's happened?

I'm sure they're fine.

I should go and look for them.

There they are.

I'm so sorry I lost you all on the way down. Miss Bingley is badly hurt. We

get her inside.

We've had to carry her down the mountain.

Oh, Mary.

Mary.

Get her inside.

Let me.

What did the doctor say?

Any change?

Not as yet.

You should get some rest, Tom.

Mary?

Mary? Are you awake?

No. Tom!

Tom! Is she awake?

I think so.

Let me fetch the doctor.

Make her full of recovery?

And so it was that Mr. Hayward left the lakes.

A trip that had promised so much had delivered very little.

He didn't return to London.

I did not know when I would see him again.
