Arthur Quiller-Couch, Books, Fiction and Literature, The Ship Of Stars, Excerpt: ... of tears. What's the matter? he asked abruptly. I-I can't walk home alone. I'm afeard! He tossed his hammer aside, raked out the fire, and reached his coat off its peg. As he swung round in the darkness to put it on, he blundered against Lizzie or Lizzie blundered against him. She clutched at him nervously. Clumsy! can't you see the doorway? She passed out, and he followed and locked the door. As they crossed the turf to the high-road, she slipped her arm into his. I feel safe, that way. Let it stay, co! After a few paces, she added, You're different from the others-that's why I like you. How? I dunno; but you be diff'rent. You don't think about girls, for one thing. Taffy did not answer. He felt angry, ashamed, uncomfortable. He did not turn once to look at her face, dimly visible by the light of the young moon-the hunter's moon-now sinking over the slope of the hill. Thick dust-too thick for the heavy dew to lay-covered the cart-track down to the farm, muffling their footsteps. Lizzie paused by the gate. Best go in separate, she said; paused again and whispered, You may if you like. May do what? What-what young Squire Vyell wanted. They were face to face now. She held up her lips, and as she did so they parted in an amorous little laugh. The moonlight was on her face. Taffy bent swiftly and kissed her. Oh, you hurt! With another little laugh she slipped up the garden path and into the house. Ten minutes later Taffy followed, hating himself. For the next fortnight he avoided her; and then, late one evening she came again. He was prepared for this, and had locked the door of the smithy and let down the shutter while, he worked. She tapped upon the outside of the shutter with her knuckles. Let me in! Can't you leave me alone? he answered pettishly. I want to work, and you interrupt. I don't want no love-making-I don't indeed. I'll sit quiet as a mouse. But I'm afeard, out here. Nonsense! I'm afeard...

Sir Arthur Thomas Quiller-Couch was a Cornish writer, who published under the pen name of Q. He published his Dead Man's Rock (a romance in the vein of Stevenson's Treasure Island) in 1887, and he followed this up with Troy Town (1888) and The Splendid Spur (1889). After some journalistic experience in London, mainly as a contributor to the Speaker, in 1891 he settled at Fowey in Cornwall. He published in 1896 a series of critical articles, Adventures in Criticism, and in 1898 he completed Robert Louis Stevenson's unfinished novel, St Ives. With the exception of the parodies entitled Green Bays: Verses and Parodies (1893), his poetical work is contained in Poems and Ballads (1896). In 1895 he published an anthology from the sixteenth and seventeenth-century English lyrists, The Golden Pomp, followed in 1900 by an equally successful Oxford Book of English Verse, 1250-1900 (1900). He was made a Bard of Gorseth Kernow in 1928, taking the Bardic name Marghak Cough ('Red Knight').
