3 At the sight, several men dropped their sticks and tried to run.
4 Jones and his men suddenly found themselves being butted and kicked from all sides.
5 In the end they finished the harvest in two days' less time than it had usually taken Jones and his men.
6 Meanwhile the animals had chased Jones and his men out on to the road and slammed the five-barred gate behind them.
7 The next moment he and his four men were in the store-shed with whips in their hands, lashing out in all directions.
8 The men had milked the cows in the early morning and then had gone out rabbiting, without bothering to feed the animals.
9 At a moment when the opening was clear, the men were glad enough to rush out of the yard and make a bolt for the main road.
10 For a moment there was great alarm; it was feared that the men might have harmed her in some way, or even carried her off with them.
11 However, this was only a light skirmishing manoeuvre, intended to create a little disorder, and the men easily drove the geese off with their sticks.
12 His men were idle and dishonest, the fields were full of weeds, the buildings wanted roofing, the hedges were neglected, and the animals were underfed.

14 Jones and all his men, with half a dozen others from Foxwood and Pinchfield, had entered the five-barred gate and were coming up the cart-track that led to the farm.
15 Muriel, Benjamin, and all the sheep, with Snowball at the head of them, rushed forward and prodded and butted the men from every side, while Benjamin turned around and lashed at them with his small hoofs.
16 But once again the men, with their sticks and their hobnailed boots, were too strong for them; and suddenly, at a squeal from Snowball, which was the signal for retreat, all the animals turned and fled through the gateway into the yard.
17 All the pigeons, to the number of thirty-five, flew to and fro over the men's heads and muted upon them from mid-air; and while the men were dealing with this, the geese, who had been hiding behind the hedge, rushed out and pecked viciously at the calves of their legs.
