Robin Brilliant CHAPTER I THE TOPIC OF THE STRANGER Thomas Pharo made his difficult way up the steep street of the village. He was going to Lamzed s, but the frantic east wind full in his teeth and eyes seemed to blow him back two steps for every one he took. It was a December day and one of absolute mutiny. Even the delicate beauty of the bared trees had taken on some aspect of weirdness. On the laced branches birds sat in couples, in trios, in moody clusters. Now and then one alone, a solitary, drearily-flitting thing, crossed from one tree to the other, or flew low across the dull fields. This external dreariness did not affect Pharo. He had seen it, in due season, from his birth. He never questioned or resented or wondered. He felt no grudge for winter, no gratitude to spring. The pageant of many years had slid before his eyes, which remained indifferent. He only knew that the wind was cold, and he turned up the collar of his frayed black coat and bent his head. The winding village street fell back behind him the irregular street, where the malthouse raised its shoulders, and the new cottages, asserting themselves impudently between their elders, stuck forth red faces. He turned the comer by the doctors 3. plainly-built old house veined all over the sober walls with leafless creepers. The last bit of rise to Lamzed sshop was the steepest in the village; it was emblematic of Lamzed ssocial altitude. The position of grocer and postmaster, added to that of Chairman of the Parish Council, ranked barely below that of parson or doctor. Pharo climbed up.
