will murder you.' Then he got up, and showed
me his razor, and said, 'Do you see that?--I bloody well mean it, mind.'
Then he got into bed again, and he did it again."

"Did you like it?" "I don't know, I was all pain, but I think I must at
last; I was so muddled like and ill I could not move. Then he dressed
and says, says he, 'If ever you tell I'll cut your bloody throat; now
you say you were ill, and stopped at home from work', and he went away
to his work." I guessed she had been raped.

Another day I had Nelly, and questioned her. She said she wanted to
know, but did not; she guessed, but dared not say. Sophy had said there
would be murder if she told who the father was, but she guessed. She was
only eleven months older than Sophy, who must have been in the family
way just before she was fourteen, had had her courses when thirteen
years old, and was "hankering after the chaps" quite early. "Mother
used to slap her for it." Nelly's courses had only recently come on, she
said.

Sophy although younger and slighter built, had more hair on her cunt
than Nelly, and gave me the idea of being older. Neither were tall, both
were larger in their thighs, haunches, and bubbies, than town girls of
the same age, as far as I can recollect.

I can't recollect the order, but only the broader features of this part
of my amorous history. I think that after the Sunday when I had Pender
and Sophy I could not get to Pender, for the farm-yard from morning
to night was full of laborers; so busied myself with Sophy, who two or
three times the same week met me at ------ and what I have narrated was
told me there. It delighted me to hear about her virgin offering, it
made my cock stand. Then I would fuck the little wench, and make her
arse wag like the tail of a duck that had a thwack with a stone, then
would question her again. If she said she should say no more, I used to
remind her of what she had let out on the previous night. What delighted
my sensuous imagination, was the evident fact that the man was big, and
with a big prick, and must have kept it up with her without uncunting
till he had fucked her three times. Her praying him to go, trying to get
from under him his grasping her to him so that she could not move, his
laying quiet on her, then commencing his shoves,--all proved it. He
seems to have began his assault on her about nine o'clock one night, and
never went out of the bed till two o'clock the next afternoon.
