[hardy-l] Passage in Tess

[Goldie Morgentaler]

In the very interesting discussion of Tess of a few weeks ago, a few
people quoted the passage below. But I cannot find this anywhere in my
copy of the novel. My copy is the most recent Penguin edition. Could
someone please tell me where this passage occurs? I have checked the end
of chapter 34 and the beginning of chapter 35 and I cannot find it. Did
Hardy add this in a later edition of the novel, or am I just blind? It is
an important passage because it seems to imply that Tess succumbed to Alec
in "confused surrender" and has implications for our understanding of what
happened to her.

> "Perhaps it was unusual in the circumstances, unlucky, unaccountable; but
> there it was; and this, as she had said, was what made her detest herself.
> She had never wholly cared for him; she did not at all care for him now.
> She had dreaded him, winced before him, succumbed to adroit advantages he
> took of her helplessness; then, temporarily blinded by his ardent manners,
> had been stirred to confused surrender awhile: had suddenly despised and
> disliked him, and had run away. That was all. Hate him she did not quite;
> but he was dust and ashes to her, and even for her name's sake she
> scarcely wished to marry him."


Many thanks for your help.
