was in his saddle well apparelled, and his shield dressed upon his

have ado withal?

his helm together with such a might that Gaheris fell out of his

beneath his hands a crash Of mighty sounds rushed up, whose music

layers of leaves.

Charlotte, but continued to fly the black flag of general repudiation:

her where she is.

distance from her, related to his countess Rosamund that the burial
was over without much silly ceremony, and that she needed to know
nothing of it whatever.

And then came in the postilion, and two helpers, (for my master has
both here, and at Lincolnshire, fine hunting horses; and it is the

said, How do all of you?

And then they pulled out their swords, and dressed their shields, and
lashed together mightily as mighty knights, that well-nigh there was
no piece of harness would hold them, for this Corsabrin was a passing
felonious knight.

"And then," said Aramis, with the tone of philosophical indifference
which he had assumed since he had belonged to the church and in which

And then he rode forth, and there he found Sir Adtherp sore wounded,
and he told him how the queen would have drowned herself had he not
been, and how for her sake and love he had taken upon him to do battle
with Sir Palamides.

And then, to be sure, in that scene, as you called it, between him and
his mother, where you told me he acted so fine, why, Lord help me, any
man, that is, any good man, that had such a mother, would have done
exactly the same.

or would sweetly glide off into a calculation of the number of letters

children with the yoke of age.

passing low; and therewithal he raced off his helm, and might have

heartly glad intent, "Domini est terra;" <48> this Latin intent,*
*means The God of Love hath earth in governance: And then the wren
began to skip and dance.

And then there are other chances in life far more thrilling and
rapture-giving: THIS is solid, an affair of the actual world, nothing
ideal about it: all its associations are solid and sober, and its
manifestations are the same.

And then he would watch, day after day, in the vague hope of seeing
somebody sent to redeem him; and, when nobody came, he would crush
back to his soul bitter thoughts,--that it was vain to serve God, that
God had forgotten him.

And then Sir Percivale thought to help the lion, for he was the more
natural beast of the two; and therewith he drew his sword, and set his
shield afore him, and there he gave the serpent such a buffet that he
had a deadly wound.

And then the flowery garland she tied upon his head, "Thy face is
delicate and fair as Ganymede's," she said; "And if great Jove beheld
thee now, he'd send his eagle down, To take thee to the palace halls
that high Olympus crown.

And then the great discomfiture of that arch enemy of all that was
respectable in Barchester, of that new low church clerical parvenu
that had fallen amongst them, that alone would be worth more, almost
than the situation itself.

And then let any man explain to me, if he can, how it happened that
Scrooge, having his key in the lock of the door, saw in the knocker,
without its undergoing any intermediate process of change--not a
knocker, but Marley's face.

And then she told the duke her husband, and said, I suppose that we
were sent for that I should be dishonoured; wherefore, husband, I
counsel you, that we depart from hence suddenly, that we may ride all
night unto our own castle.

And then he told the king how he had rescued him from the nine knights
and Breuse Saunce Pit<e'>; and how he found a knight lying by a well,
and that knight smote down Sir Palomides and me, but his shield was
covered with a cloth.

And then after they had talked a little longer Childe Rowland began to
feel hungry from his long travels, and told his sister Burd Ellen how
hungry he was and asked for some food, forgetting all about the
Warlock Merlin's warning.

And then she began to laugh too and they both laughed until they could
not stop themselves and they laughed until the room echoed and Mrs.
Medlock opening the door to come in drew back into the corridor and
stood listening amazed.

And then the rollers groaned under the sturdy keel as they were
chafed, and round them rose up a dark smoke owing to the weight, and
she glided into the sea; but the heroes stood there and kept dragging
her back as she sped onward.

And then Sir Percivale alighted, and said to Sir Ector de Maris: Ye
shall abide me here until that I wit what manner a knight he is; for
it were shame unto us, inasmuch as he is but one knight, an we should
both do battle with him.

And then, feeling not unnatural anxiety as to the present state of
Miss Dunstable's worldly concerns, he took an opportunity of falling
back on that part of her conversation which Mrs Proudie had exercised
so much tact in avoiding.

And then, hurrying on to the subject with confused haste, in order
that a word or two might be spoken before her husband came back, she
expressed her thanks and his for the good things which had been sent
to them at Christmas-tide.

And then the wretch fell a laughing, and talked most impertinently,
and shewed me, that I had nothing to expect from her virtue or
conscience: and this gave me great mortification; for I was in hopes
of working upon her by degrees.

And thence I home and after dinner to the office, where Sir W. Rider
and Cutler come, and in dispute I very high with them against their
demands, I hope to no hurt to myself, for I was very plain with them
to the best of my reason.

And then the Lord will shew these things, and the majesty of the Lord
shall appear, and there shall be a cloud as it was also shewed to
Moses, and he shewed it when Solomon prayed that the place might be
sanctified to the great God.

And then there was no more else to say, but Sir Launcelot and Sir
Meliagrance dressed them unto battle, and took their spears; and so
they came together as thunder, and there Sir Launcelot bare him down
quite over his horse's croup.

And then, examining the Princess's headdress, "Why, you're quite
right; it is copied from... what shall I say, not chestnuts, no,--oh,
it's a delightful idea, but how can the Princess have known what was
going to be on my programme?

And then he did not stir any more, but read on, read on with his eye
and his mind; all his wasting body seemed to read, all his soul
plunged, lost, disappeared, in this book, up to the hour when the cool
air made him cough a little.

And then when I come back to him--to him, rich, happy, free--to
implore the help the first stranger would give, a suppliant, and
bringing back to him all my tenderness, he repulses me because it
would cost him three thousand francs!

And then said Sir Tristram to Sir Lamorak: I require you if ye hap to
meet with Sir Palomides, say him that he shall find me at the same
well where I met him, and there I, Sir Tristram, shall prove whether
he be better knight than I.

And then either dressed their spears and their shields, and smote
together, so that through fine force Sir Dinadan was smitten to the
earth; and lightly he rose up and gat his horse, and required that
knight to do battle with swords.

And then Sir Bors alighted and avoided his horse, and there they
dashed together many sad strokes; and long thus they fought, till at
the last Sir Bromel was laid to the earth, and there Sir Bors began to
unlace his helm to slay him.

And then, he don't seem to be quite right yet about the legs, so he
hasn't got up; but he's got that Winterbones with him to write for
him, and when Winterbones is there, Scatcherd might as well be up for
any good that bed'll do him.

"And then, and then, they gave me nuts and pleasant things to eat, and
they--they carried me in their arms up to the top of the trees and
said I was their blood brother except that I had no tail, and should
be their leader some day."

And then his wife might set out to look for him, and she too would
feel the cold; and perhaps she would have some of the children with
her--and so a whole family would drift into drinking, as the current
of a river drifts downstream.

And then after that they fell to talking of relics and traces of the
past, and Dr. Gallagher said that if Dean Drone would come round to
his house some night he would show him some Indian arrow heads that he
had dug up in his garden.

And then, full of yourself, not thinking of Elizabeth, but to withdraw
in the chivalrous attitude of the man true to his word to the old
woman, only stickling to bring a certain independence to the common
stock, because-- I quote you!

And then she would pout like a disappointed child; a pensive cloud
would soften her radiant vivacity; she would withdraw her hand hastily
from his, and turn in transient petulance from his aspect, at once so
heroic and so martyr-like.

And then he made a great many other remarks, no less illustrative of
his humility, which were received with equal favour and applause, and
were, withal, as original and as much to the purpose, as the remarks
of great men commonly are.

And thence had another meeting with the Duke of York, at White Hall,
on yesterday's work, and made a good advance: and so, being called by
my wife, we to the Park, Mary Batelier, and a Dutch gentleman, a
friend of hers, being with us.

And then every man agreed to make war, and to aid after their power;
that is to wit, the lord of West Wales promised to bring thirty
thousand men, and Sir Uwaine, Sir Ider his son, with their cousins,
promised to bring thirty thousand.

And then he drew his sword, and dressed him unto Sir Percivale, and
smote him so on the helm, that it rove to the coif of steel; and had
not the sword swerved Sir Percivale had been slain, and with the
stroke he fell out of his saddle.

And then they drew their swords, and gave many sad strokes, and either
of them wounded other full ill. And at the last, at an overthwart,
Beaumains with his horse struck the Green Knight's horse upon the
side, that he fell to the earth.

And then Sir Launcelot prayed Sir Urre to let him see his head; and
then devoutly kneeling he ransacked the three wounds, that they bled a
little, and forthwith all the wounds fair healed, and seemed as they
had been whole a seven year.

And then," said Madame de Villefort, endeavoring by a struggle, and
with effort, to get away from her thoughts, "however skilfully it is
prepared, crime is always crime, and if it avoid human scrutiny, it
does not escape the eye of God.

And then Miss Anne gave her a cloth cloak, very warm, with pretty
buttons and gimp trimmings--just such a cloak as any girl might like
to wear who thought that she would be seen out walking with her Major
Grantly on a Christmas morning.

And then when we got up in hall she sware that the cock pheasant was
one of her rearing, when 'twas not your bird at all, Joe; 'twas Squire
Brown's bird--that's whose 'twas--one that we'd picked off as we
passed his wood, an hour afore.

And then I threw myself at his feet, blessed God, and blessed him for
his goodness; and he overwhelmed me with kindness, calling me his
sweet bride, and twenty lovely epithets, that swell my grateful heart
beyond the power of utterance.

And then to Sir W. Batten's, and dined; and there hear that Sir W.
Rider says that the towne is full of the report of the wealth that is
in his house, and would be glad that his friends would provide for the
safety of their goods there.

And then, just when I was beginning to think I might safely pop down
in that direction and gather up the dropped threads, so to speak,
time, instead of working the healing wheeze, went and pulled the most
awful bone and put the lid on it.

And then there are those cannons, which certainly it must be thought
the highest presumption to go in the way of; and nobody but a madman--
I ask pardon; upon my soul I meant no harm; I beg I may not throw your
honour into another passion.

And then it was "the dry commonplace, the cold, the wooden Francis,"
and all the pretty little epithets which the contrast between us
suggested to your fatherly affection, when he was sitting on your
knee, or playfully patting your cheeks?

And then, continued Homenas, they were miraculously transmitted to us
here from the very heaven of heavens; in the same manner as the river
Nile is called Diipetes by Homer, the father of all philosophy--the
holy decretals always excepted.

And then he summoned to go with him the sons of Phrixus, and Telamon
and Augeias; and himself took Hermes' wand; and at once they passed
forth from the ship beyond the reeds and the water to dry land,
towards the rising ground of the plain.

And then," said Aramis, pinching his ear to make it red, as he rubbed
his hands to make them white, "and then I made a certain RONDEAU upon
it last year, which I showed to Monsieur Voiture, and that great man
paid me a thousand compliments.

And then he came to Arthur's court and told him his intent, how this
was his will, how he would let cry a jousts in the country of Surluse,
the which country was within the lands of King Arthur, and there he
asked leave to let cry a jousts.

And then he told Olaf how, "in the great trading place which is called
Southwark," the Danes had raised "a great work and dug large ditches,
and within had builded a bulwark of stone, timber, and turf, where
they had stationed a large army.

And then the tear, which had been no whit controlled, which indeed had
now made itself master of her, came to a head, and, bursting through
the floodgates of the eye, came rolling down, and in its fall, wetted
her hand as it lay on her lap.

And then they stood about, as soldiers do; now, with their hands
loosely clasped before them; now, resting a knee or a shoulder; now,
easing a belt or a pouch; now, opening the door to spit stiffly over
their high stocks, out into the yard.

And then to see in what pomp his table was laid for himself to go to
dinner; and here, among other pictures, saw the so much desired by me
picture of my Lady Castlemaine, which is a most blessed picture; and
that that I must have a copy of.

And then came into the field Sir Perimones, the Red Knight, Sir
Persant's brother, that was a knight of the castle, and he encountered
with Sir Ector de Maris, and either smote other so hard that both
their horses and they fell to the earth.

And then he cried: Knight, turn again; and he turned and set his spear
against Sir Percivale, and he smote the hackney in the midst of the
breast that he fell down dead to the earth, and there he had a great
fall, and the other rode his way.

And then faster and faster they went, all of them dancing, first one
foot out in the air and then the other, the horses leaning more and
more, and the ringmaster going round and round the center-pole,
cracking his whip and shouting "Hi!--hi!

And then, really," said Baisemeaux to his next in command, "an
ordinary prisoner is already unhappy enough in being a prisoner; he

his mother had discovered in her pride how she had wrought that by
enchantment, so that he should never be whole until the best knight of
the world had searched his wounds.

And then they couched their spears, and came together with a great
dash, and there were overthrown at the first encounter twelve of King

And then I bade him at least take a myrtle-wreath and recite to me
some portion of Aeschylus; and then he immediately said, "Shall I

recommendation, and many great gifts to maintain Sir Tristram's
estate; and ever, between, Sir Tristram resorted unto Joyous Gard
whereas La Beale Isoud was, that loved him as her life.

And then, what shall we say of Gasabal, the squire of Galaor, who was
so silent that in order to indicate to us the greatness of his
marvellous taciturnity his name is only once mentioned in the whole of
that history, as long as it is truthful?

And then in a forest by a well Sir Palomides saw where lay a fair
wounded knight and his horse bounden by him; and that knight made the
greatest dole that ever he heard man make, for ever he wept, and
therewith he sighed as though he would die.

And then we went to battle first upon horse and after on foot, but at
the last Sir Helior wounded me so that he left me for dead, and so he
took my lady with him; and thus my sorrow is more than yours, for I
have rejoiced and ye rejoiced never.

And then came in Sir Brandiles, Sir Sagramore le Desirous, Sir Dodinas

but before going into the house she called out at the door, "Come out,
mother Teresa, come out, come out; here's a gentleman with letters and
other things from my good father.

And then the uses of life transform us into strange things with other
names: the tree is a tree no more, it is a gate or a ship; the youth
is a youth no more, but a one-legged soldier, a hollow-eyed statesman,
a scholar spectacled and slippered!

And then Sir Gareth and Dinadan did wonderly great deeds of arms, as
two noble knights, so that King Arthur spake of them great honour and
worship; and the kings and knights of Sir Tristram's side did
passingly well, and held them truly together.

And then she sang, '"O morning star" (not that tall felon there Whom
thou by sorcery or unhappiness Or some device, hast foully
overthrown), "O morning star that smilest in the blue, O star, my
morning dream hath proven true, Smile sweetly, thou!

And then laughed like an idiot, for all he is a lord's son, and may be
a lord himself.--For he is the son of Lord ----; and his mother, who
was Lord Davers's sister, being dead, he has received what education
he has, from Lord Davers's direction.

And then Sir Launcelot asked where were the ten knights that were
wounded sore; so she showed them unto Sir Launcelot, and there they
made great joy of the coming of him, and Sir Launcelot made great dole
of their hurts, and bewailed them greatly.

implored him to remember that not only my honour but that of one who

conceive it necessary, to send either ships of war, men, or
ammunition, into any of their plantations, forts, factories, or places

midst of all sorts of extraordinary people, or else those terrible
solitary dinners at a small table in a restaurant, feebly lighted by a
wretched composite candle under a shade.

And then Sir Gaheris took his leave of King Mark, but or he departed
he said: Sir king, ye did a foul shame unto you and your court, when
ye banished Sir Tristram out of this country, for ye needed not to
have doubted no knight an he had been here.

And then he took his horse, and rode from country to country, and all
strange adventures he achieved wheresomever he rode; and always he
enquired for Sir Palomides, but of all that quarter of summer Sir
Tristram could never meet with Sir Palomides.

And then they rode a great wallop together, and ever Sir Launcelot
bled that it ran down to the earth; and so by fortune they came to
that hermitage the which was under a wood, and a great cliff on the
other side, and a fair water running under it.

And then the organ sounds, and unseen choirs Sing the old Latin hymns
of peace and love And benedictions of the Holy Ghost; And the
melodious bells among the spires O'er all the house-tops and through
heaven above Proclaim the elevation of the Host!

And then Sir Tristram ran to him, and gave him a fall; and so they
left them on foot, and Sir Tristram rode unto Joyous Gard, and there
Sir Gareth would not of his courtesy have gone into this castle, but
Sir Tristram would not suffer him to depart.

And then, feeling that my mind is growing fatigued without having any
success to report, I compel it for a change to enjoy that distraction
which I have just denied it, to think of other things, to rest and
refresh itself before the supreme attempt.

And then, without further formalities, Goulburn stated in blunt and
business-like fashion the matters on which they had been instructed:
impressment, fisheries, boundaries, the pacification of the Indians,
and the demarkation of an Indian territory.

And then--to bite a piece off an apple, and when you saw that Duphilus
was busy talking to Thraso, to lean forward and throw it right into
her lap, without caring whether I saw it or not; and she kissed it and
put it into her bosom under her girdle!

And then she would say quite simply, without taking (as she would once
have taken) the precaution of covering herself, at all costs, with a
little fragment borrowed from the truth, that she had just, at that
very moment, arrived by the morning train.

And then I was sick of going to the shop every morning, and I wasn't
getting on very well with my aunt; she wanted to treat me as a servant
instead of a relation, said I ought to do my own room, and if I didn't
do it nobody was going to do it for me.

And then Dame Brisen brought Sir Launcelot a cup full of wine; and
anon as he had drunken that wine he was so assotted and mad that he
might make no delay, but withouten any let he went to bed; and he
weened that maiden Elaine had been Queen Guenever.

And then anon Sir Bors and the knights of his blood espied Sir
Launcelot, and said to them all: I warn you beware of him with the
sleeve of gold upon his head, for he is himself Sir Launcelot du Lake;
and for great goodness Sir Bors warned Sir Gareth.

And then again to quarters; for half the day's work, or more than
half, still remained to be done; and hardly were the decks cleared
afresh, and the damage repaired as best it could be, when she came
ranging up to leeward, as closehauled as she could.

And then behold a woman at a door Spinning; and fair the house whereby
she sat, And kind the woman's eyes and innocent, And all her bearing
gracious; and she rose Opening her arms to meet me, as who should say,
"Rest here;" but when I touched her, lo!

glories from the Valley of the Many-Colored Grass.

And then Mary Lennox was led up a broad staircase and down a long
corridor and up a short flight of steps and through another corridor
and another, until a door opened in a wall and she found herself in a
room with a fire in it and a supper on a table.

And then, she was no longer the school-girl with her felt hat, her
merino gown, her scholar's shoes, and red hands; taste had come to her
with beauty; she was a well-dressed person, clad with a sort of rich
and simple elegance, and without affectation.

And then we find that they are reduced into a Latin style the most
elegant and ornate that whole language is able to afford, without
excepting that of any that ever wrote therein, nay, not of Sallust,
Varro, Cicero, Seneca, Titus Livius, nor Quintilian.

And then, hour after hour, would I linger by her side, and dwell upon
the music of her voice, until at length its melody was tainted with
terror, and there fell a shadow upon my soul, and I grew pale, and
shuddered inwardly at those too unearthly tones.

And then, suppose; You are a woman well endowed, And the only man with
whom the law and morality Permit you to have the marital relation Is

while you think of it Every time you see him?

Priamus told unto them what lords and knights had sworn to rescue him,

And then for her To win the Moor,--were't to renounce his baptism, All
seals and symbols of redeemed sin,-- His soul is so enfetter'd to her
love That she may make, unmake, do what she list, Even as her appetite
shall play the god With his weak function.

And then you gave a little laugh and ran through your list point by
point:-- 'And pray what will be the use of tactics to an army without
supplies, without health, without discipline, without knowledge of
those arts and inventions that are of use in war?

And then Sir Percivale took the knight's horse and made Sir Persides
to mount up him; and so they rode unto the castle, and bade the lady
deliver Sir Persides' servants, or else he would slay all that ever he
found; and so for fear she delivered them all.

And then they rode to the lists' end, and there they couched their
spears, and ran together with all their might, and Sir Mador's spear
brake all to pieces, but the other's spear held, and bare Sir Mador's
horse and all backward to the earth a great fall.

And then, also, Sir Roger was the richest man in the county, and to
county practitioners a new patient with large means is a godsend; how
much greater a godsend when not only acquired, but taken also from
some rival practitioner, need hardly be explained.

And then, although he did not care two rushes about Miss Dunstable in
the way of love, he nevertheless experienced a sort of jealousy when
he found that she appeared to be indifferent to him, and that she
corresponded the meanwhile with his cousin George.

And then, when two lovers have come to an understanding, things always
go well; the third party who might disturb their love is kept in a
state of perfect blindness by a restricted number of precautions which
are always the same in the case of all lovers.

And then our husband--if he loved and trusted us, and we have not
helped him, but made a curse in his life--" Her voice had sunk very
low: there was a dread upon her of presuming too far, and of speaking
as if she herself were perfection addressing error.

And then it is called of physicians the vital spirit: because that
from the heart, by the wosen, and veins, and small ways, it spreadeth
itself into all the limbs of the body, and increaseth the virtues
spiritual, and ruleth and keepeth the works thereof.

And then to the garden, and there eat many grapes, and took some with
us and so away thence, exceeding well satisfied, though not to that
degree that, by my old esteem of the house, I ought and did expect to
have done, the situation of it not pleasing me.

And then anon Sir Tristram took the sea, and La Beale Isoud; and when
they were in their cabin, it happed so that they were thirsty, and
they saw a little flasket of gold stand by <319>them, and it seemed by
the colour and the taste that it was noble wine.

And then when it came to the time for me to leave Galway and come up
to the convent he was much worse and I wouldn't be let see him so I
wrote him a letter saying I was going up to Dublin and would be back
in the summer, and hoping he would be better then.

And then he dived into the coffee-room, and she heard him say, "For
God's sake, hurry the women up; we shall never be off," and Albert
Fussell reply, "Not I; I've done my share," and Colonel Fussell opine
that the ladies were getting themselves up to kill.

And then Aerssens bewitches them, and they imagine that after having
played runaway horses his Majesty will be only too happy to receive
them back, caress them, and, in order to have their friendship,
approve everything they have been doing right or wrong.

And then, through the rain and the darkness, far down the street he
saw red lights flaring and heard the thumping of a bass drum; and his
heart gave a leap, and he made for the place on the run--knowing
without the asking that it meant a political meeting.

And then outside the cafe the comparative stillness of the early
morning was punctured by faint, uncer- tain cries that seemed mere
fireflies of sound, some growing louder, some fainter, waxing and
waning amid the rumble of milk wagons and infrequent cars.

And then for her To win the Moore, were to renownce his Baptisme, All
Seales, and Simbols of redeemed sin: His Soule is so enfetter'd to her
Loue, That she may make, vnmake, do what she list, Euen as her
Appetite shall play the God, With his weake Function.

And then with kind embracements, tempting kisses, And with declining
head into his bosom, Bid him shed tears, as being overjoy'd To see her
noble lord restor'd to health, Who for this seven years hath esteemed
him No better than a poor and loathsome beggar.

And then she thought of Tony's piteous instance; and thinking with her
heart, the tears insisted on that bitter irony of the heavens, which
bestowed the long-withheld and coveted boon when it was empty of value
or was but as a handful of spices to a shroud.

And then Cal Harkness, probably reasoning that further pursuance of
the controversy would give a too decided personal flavor to the feud,
suddenly disappeared from the relieved Cumberlands, baulking the
avenging hand of Sam, the ultimate op- posing Folwell.

And then, when he reflected that, merely by coming at an hour when he
was not in the habit of coming, he had managed to disturb so many
arrangements of which she did not wish him to know, he had a feeling
of discouragement that amounted, almost, to distress.

And then as he remembered that he was only twenty-seven and that she
was twenty-four, he began to marvel at the feeling of grey old age
which had come upon him, and tried to make himself believe that he
would have her yet before the bloom was off her cheeks.

And then they pretended to persuade themselves that all that had
happened was of no consequence, and that they could still be cousins
and friends and warm correspondents, and have happy genial times when
they met, even if they met less frequently than before.

And then to talk of general matters, and, by and by, Sheres being
gone, my wife, and he, and I out, and I set him down at Temple Bar,
and myself and wife went down the Temple upon seeming business, only
to put him off, and just at the Temple gate I spied Deb.

And then all were gone, and the mourners went back to the place which
should know her no more; and Marie's room was darkened, and she lay on
the bed, sobbing and moaning in uncontrollable grief, and calling
every moment for the attentions of all her servants.

And then that abominable and mysterious thing occurred which I was a
long time in understanding (but I grew sharp by dint of watching your
thoughts and actions): You attached yourself to your children with all
the security which they gave you while I bore them.

And then the butcher had written repeated letters to the bishop--to
bishop Proudie of Barchester, who had first caused his chaplain to
answer them, and had told Mr Crawley somewhat roundly what was his
opinion of a clergyman who ate meat and did not pay for it.

And then--women are women and can't help themselves--the old word--by
George, sir, she spat it at me from a festering sore in her very soul
--the old word would have rankled all the time, and some stupid
quarrel having arisen, she would have spat it at me again.

And then, with a whoop, he clattered to the rear and brought back
Uncle like, a battered colored retainer of the family, with his banjo,
and strewed sand on the porch and danced "Chicken in the Bread Tray"
and did buck-and- wing wonders for half an hour longer.

And then was noble Sir Gawaine found in a great boat, lying more than
half dead When Sir Arthur wist that Sir Gawaine was laid so low; he
went unto him; and there the king made sorrow out of measure, and took
Sir Gawaine in his arms, and thrice he there swooned.

And then our thoughts must naturally wander to the formation and
creation of those mighty ships of the desert, that alone could have
brought us here, and by whose strength and incomprehensible powers of
endurance, only are we enabled to leave this desert behind.

And then turning towards the mills he said aloud, "Friends, whoe'er ye
be that are immured in that prison, forgive me that, to my misfortune
and yours, I cannot deliver you from your misery; this adventure is
doubtless reserved and destined for some other knight.

And then had these three kings great cheer of King Leodegrance, that
thanked them of their great goodness, that they would revenge him of
his enemies; and there had Arthur the first sight of Guenever, the
king's daughter of Cameliard, and ever after he loved her.

And then said the duke to him, That me sore repenteth: the cause is
this, for I love not thy lord nor none of thy <142>fellows of the
Table Round; and therefore ease thyself this night as well as thou
mayest, for as to-morn I and my six sons shall match with you.

And then, over and above all, Marius experienced unutterable impulses
to revolt, when he reflected that it was M. Gillenormand who had, from
stupid motives, torn him ruthlessly from the colonel, thus depriving
the father of the child, and the child of the father.

And then another hunter cometh and smiteth the first hunter, and doth
him away, and defendeth the elephant, and giveth him barley to eat,
and when he hath eaten thrice or four times, then he loveth him that
defended him, and is afterward mild and obedient to him.

And then at last our bliss Full and perfect is, But now begins; for
from this happy day Th'old Dragon under ground In straiter limits
bound, Not half so far casts his usurped sway, And wrath to see his
Kingdom fail, Swindges the scaly Horrour of his foulded tail.

And then Sir Bors started up and dressed his shield; and then they
lashed together mightily a great while; and at the last Sir Bors bare
him backward until that he came unto a chamber door, and there that
knight yede into that chamber and rested him a great while.

And then Sir Launcelot betook the fair maiden his shield in keeping,
and prayed her to keep that until that he came again; and so that
night he had merry rest and great cheer, for ever the damosel Elaine
was about Sir Launcelot all the while she might be suffered.

And then, as if this was not enough, and she had not stood
sufficiently in the light of this child's sister, Betsey Trotwood,'
said my aunt, 'she marries a second time - goes and marries a Murderer
- or a man with a name like it - and stands in THIS child's light!

And then, as nothing stirred, he went up to the window and pushed it
wider open with his hand, and the close warm air of the kitchen, full
of the smell of hot soup, meat and cabbage, escaped into the cold
outer air, and with a bound the carpenter was in the house.

And then Aidos and Nemesis (7), with their sweet forms wrapped in
white robes, will go from the wide-pathed earth and forsake mankind to
join the company of the deathless gods: and bitter sorrows will be
left for mortal men, and there will be no help against evil.

although he had negotiated much bribery of others, warmed into sincere
eloquence as he spoke of the simple virtues on which the little
republic, as should be the case with all republics, was founded.

lost to all conditions of things in the advent of a fresh and wild
pleasure, that of having found a new channel for emotional interest

And then to see him fall on his knees to beg pardon of his child; and
she, good lady, kneeling all the while to ask a blessing of him, and
telling him that it did not become him to kneel, but it was her duty,
for she was his child, his true and very child Cordial!

And then he said to the old man: Sir, ye may now go your way, for well
have ye done that ye were commanded to do; and recommend me unto my
grandsire, King Pelles, and unto my lord Petchere, and say them on my
behalf, I shall come and see them as soon as ever I may.

And then her cheeks of green and yellow hues, The obvious penalty of
poisonous envy-- Zeus oft complains to me that that same shrew Each
night torments him with her nauseous love, And with her jealous whims,
--enough, I'm sure, Into Ixion's wheel to turn all heaven.

And then they had called her to a sofa, where she now sat, ensconced
between them, chattering alternately in French and broken English;
absorbing not only the young ladies' attention, but that of Mrs.
Eshton and Lady Lynn, and getting spoilt to her heart's content.

And then your father, maybe, will stay.--I should have been glad to
have had it to-morrow, added he; but I have sent Monsieur Colbrand for
a license, that, you may have no scruple unanswered; and he can't very
well be back before to-morrow night, or Monday morning.

And then two big police- men took a band and dragged out of the
furious mob of onlookers a crushed and trampled thing, with a wedding
ring in its vest pocket and a shredded and hysterical woman beating
her way to the carpet's edge, ragged, bruised and obstreperous.

And then Sir Palomides prayed them all to take keep unto all the
lordship of King Hermance: For, fair sirs, wit ye well I may not as at
this time abide with you, for I must in all haste be with my lord King
Arthur at the Castle of Lonazep, the which I have promised.

And then there were serious debates whether he might not have stolen
the money without much sin, being mad or half-mad--touched with
madness when he took it; and whether he might not, in spite of such
temporary touch of madness, be well fitted for his parish duties.

And then they came to the shore in smooth-running wains, bearing with
them many gifts, when now he had related from beginning to end the
speech which Hypsipyle had spoken when she summoned them; and the
maids readily led the men back to their homes for entertainment.

And then when Sir Gareth was in the field all folks saw him well and
plainly that he was in yellow colours; and there he rased off helms
and pulled down knights, that King Arthur had marvel what knight he
was, for the king saw by his hair that it was the same knight.

And then so short a time had elapsed since the death of poor
Valentine, and the gloom which overshadowed the house was so recent,
that no one wondered to see the father so absorbed in his professional
duties, which were the only means he had of dissipating his grief.

And then, when thou hast heedfully sought the grace of the goddess,
retreat from the pyre; and let neither the sound of feet drive thee to
turn back, nor the baying of hounds, lest haply thou shouldst maim all
the rites and thyself fail to return duly to thy comrades.

And then all at once a marsh was squelching under our feet, and we saw
little round moss-covered hillocks which I had never noticed before
either.... We turned back--a small hill was sharply before us and on
the top of it stood a shanty--and in it someone was snoring.

And thence the botanist and I walk on to the apartments that have been
set aside for us, and into which the poor little rolls of the property
that has accumulated about us in Utopia, our earthly raiment, and a
change of linen and the like, have already been delivered.

And then with Mr. Creed and two friends of his (my late landlord
Jones' son one of them), to an ordinary to dinner, and then Creed and
I to Whitefriars' to the Play-house, and saw "The Mad Lover," the
first time I ever saw it acted, which I like pretty well, and home.

And then they rode from country to country, in forests, and in
wilderness, and in wastes; and ever they laid watch both at forests
and at all manner of men as they rode, to hearken and spere after him,
as he that was a naked man, in his shirt, with a sword in his hand.

And then they went together from chamber to chamber, for Sir Launcelot
dread no perils; for ever a man of worship and of prowess dreadeth
least always perils, for they ween every man be as they be; but ever
he that fareth with treason putteth oft a man in great danger.

And then, with a glad cry, I turned with outstretched arms to seize my
princess, and as my lips smothered hers to reap the reward that would
be thrice ample payment for the bloody encounters through which I had
passed for her dear sake from the south pole to the north.

And then thinking as men will think when they look on the figure of a
fair girl marching serenely to a sacrifice, the horrors of which they
insist that she ought to know: half-hating her for her calmness--
adoring her for her innocence: he said: 'It rests with you, Rose.

`And then there's the Butterfly,' Alice went on, after she had taken a
good look at the insect with its head on fire, and had thought to
herself, `I wonder if that's the reason insects are so fond of flying
into candles--because they want to turn into Snap-dragon-flies!

And then he took both our hands, and joined them; and my lady saluting
me again, with tears on both sides, he put his kind arms about each of
our waists, and saluted us with great affection, saying, Now, God
bless you both, the two dearest creatures I have in the world!

And then," replied the latter, after having mastered his feelings,
"should I be the man I really am, should I be the true friend you
believe me, if I were to expose you, whom the king already hates so
bitterly, to a feeling more than ever to be dreaded in that young man?

And then Mr Gazebee came down from town, with an intimation that it
behoved the squire himself to go up that he might see certain learned
pundits, and be badgered in his own person at various dingy, dismal
chambers in Lincoln's Inn Fields, the Temple, and Gray's Inn Lane.

And then he would rumple my hair the wrong way,--which from my
earliest remembrance, as already hinted, I have in my soul denied the
right of any fellow-creature to do,--and would hold me before him by
the sleeve,--a spectacle of imbecility only to be equalled by himself.

And then, as Simpson coughed tactfully behind his hand, and nudged her
very obviously with his elbow, she added, as a sympathetic after-
thought: "For, though a homey face may indeed be redeemed by its
kindly expression, you cannot very well explain expression to the
blind.

And then he asked leave, and went out of his hermitage for to maintain
his nephew against the mighty earl; and so it happed that this man
that lieth here dead did so much by his wisdom and hardiness that the
earl was taken, and three of his lords, by force of this dead man.

And then they woke, and came the hour around Which had been wont our
scanty meal to bring; But from our dreams dumb terrors seemed to
spring; "When from below we heard the dreadful sound Of nails; the
horrible tower was closed; all dumb I let my gaze into my sons' eyes
come.

And then, putting her knitting on the counter, she went upstairs to
the first floor, where she met two other neighbors, who had just come,
and who were discussing the event with Madame Caravan, who was giving
them the details, and they all went together to the death chamber.

And then, if Tom's to go and live at Mudport, like Riley, he'll have a
house with a kitchen hardly big enough to turn in, an' niver get a
fresh egg for his breakfast, an' sleep up three pair o' stairs,--or
four, for what I know,--and be burnt to death before he can get down.

And then Sir Launcelot smote down the King of Ireland quite from his
horse; and so Sir Launcelot smote down the King of Scots, and the King
of Wales; and then Sir Arthur ran unto Sir Palomides and smote him
quite from his horse; and then Sir Tristram bare down all that he met.

And then he told her all, what he was, and how he had changed his name
because he would not be known, and how a lady told him that he should
never be whole till he came into this country where the <299>poison
was made, wherethrough I was near my death had not your ladyship been.

And then democracy comes into being after the poor have conquered
their opponents, slaughtering some and banishing some, while to the
remainder they give an equal share of freedom and power; and this is
the form of government in which the magistrates are commonly elected
by lot.

And then what a happiness would it have been could Hester Prynne have
heard her clear, bird-like voice mingling with the uproar of other
childish voices, and have distinguished and unravelled her own
darling's tones, amid all the entangled outcry of a group of sportive
children.

And then -- then, when poring over forbidden pages, I felt a forbidden
spirit enkindling within me -- would Morella place her cold hand upon
my own, and rake up from the ashes of a dead philosophy some low,
singular words, whose strange meaning burned themselves in upon my
memory.

And then met the ladies, and were showed the whole house by Mr.
Marriott; which is indeed nobly furnished, particularly the Queen's
bed, given her by the States of Holland; a looking-glass sent by the
Queen-mother from France, hanging in the Queen's chamber, and many
brave pictures.

And then on the morrow the newspapers would have a chance to report
the tremendous ovation, and to add that it had been no "silk-stocking"
audience, either, proving clearly that the high tariff sentiments of
the distinguished candidate were pleasing to the wage-earners of the
nation.

And then he required him to choose a tenth part of all the treasure
and horses and captives that had fallen into their hands, before any
division should be made to others; besides which, he made him the
special present of a horse with trappings and ornaments, in honor of
his actions.

And then they take my horse and harness and put me out of the gates,
and she will not suffer me to eat nor drink; and always I offer me to
be her prisoner, but that she will not suffer me, for I would desire
no more, what pains so ever I had, so that I might have a sight of her
daily.

And then by little and little I recovered my former thoughts of Thy
handmaid, her holy conversation towards Thee, her holy tenderness and
observance towards us, whereof I was suddenly deprived: and I was
minded to weep in Thy sight, for her and for myself, in her behalf and
in my own.

And then the queen gripped that sword in her hand fiercely, and with
all her might she ran straight upon Tramtrist where he sat in his
bain, and there she had rived him through had not Sir Hebes gotten her
in his arms, and pulled the sword from her, and else she had thrust
him through.

And then there is one further reason, psychological perhaps, but none
the less important; you will watch these little trees, which are
largely the result of your own labor and care, when set in their
permanent positions, much more carefully than you would those direct
from the nursery.

And then forgetting his grandeur he fell to and stuffed himself with
buns and drank milk out of the pail in copious draughts in the manner
of any hungry little boy who had been taking unusual exercise and
breathing in moorland air and whose breakfast was more than two hours
behind him.

And then he is no less diligent and careful for her than he is for
himself: and specially lovingly he adviseth her if she do amiss, and
taketh good heed to keep her well, and taketh heed of her bearing and
going, of her speaking and looking, of her passing and ayencoming, out
and home.

And then," resumed D'Artagnan, "to this decrepitude is probably added
poverty, for he must have neglected the little that he had, and the
dirty scoundrel, Grimaud, more taciturn than ever and still more
drunken than his master -- stay, Planchet, it breaks my heart to
merely think of it.

And then I saw from that saying, "He that cometh to me shall never
hunger, and he that believeth on me shall never thirst", that
believing and coming was all one; and that he that came, that is, ran
out in his heart and affections after salvation by Christ, he indeed
believed in Christ.

And then he departed unto the court of King Arthur, and there openly
the Red Knight of the Red Launds put him in the mercy of Sir Launcelot
and Sir Gawaine, and there he told openly how he was overcome and by
whom, and also he told all the battles from the beginning unto the
<242>ending.

And then Sir Launcelot stood near Sir Gawaine, and then Sir Launcelot
doubled his strokes; and Sir Gawaine defended him mightily, but
nevertheless Sir Launcelot smote such a stroke upon Sir Gawaine's
helm, and upon the old wound, that Sir Gawaine sinked down upon his
one side in a swoon.

And then, suddenly having reached a certain point from which he was
prepared to follow it, after pausing for a moment, abruptly it changed
its direction, and in a fresh movement, more rapid, multiform,
melancholy, incessant, sweet, it bore him off with it towards a vista
of joys unknown.

And then the fight surged upon us once more and we were separated, but
my heart's desire was attained, and it was with renewed vigor and a
joyous soul that I laid about me with my long-sword until the last of
the green men had had enough and had withdrawn toward their distant
sea bottom.

And then I went up into the Lord's chamber; and as it happed, all the
while of my playing I had had my short-sword naked in my hand, and
thus, I deem without noting it, yet as weird would, I came before the
tyrant, where he sat with none anigh him save this Otter and another
man-at-arms.

And then Sir Launcelot returned again unto the queen, and said: Madam,
now wit you well all our true love is brought to an end, for now will
King Arthur ever be my foe; and therefore, madam, an it like you that
I may have you with me, I shall save you from all manner adventures
dangerous.

And then, hurrying on, Trevanion spoke flatteringly of my pretensions,
in right of birth and capabilities, to honorable employment, and
placed before me a picture of public life, its prizes and
distinctions, which for the moment, at least, made my heart beat loud
and my breath come quick.

And then the brush was given, and then the tint was placed; and, for
one moment, the painter stood entranced before the work which he had
wrought; but in the next, while he yet gazed, he grew tremulous and
very pallid, and aghast, and crying with a loud voice, 'This is indeed
Life itself!

And then he wrote the letter to the darling Moorish slave, And this is
the tender message that royal Chico gave: THE LETTER OF THE KING "Thy
words have done me grievous wrong, for, lovely Mooress, couldst thou
think That he who loves thee more than life could e'er to such a
treachery sink?

And then thou seest the rain forthcoming from their midst; and He
causeth clouds like mountains charged with hail, to descend from the
heaven, and He maketh it to fall on whom He will, and from whom He
will He turneth it aside.–The brightness of His lightning all but
taketh away the sight!

And then she spurned the loaves with her pale feet, Towards her
bloodless guests;--that sight to meet, Mine eyes and my heart ached,
and but that she Who loved me, did with absent looks defeat _2800
Despair, I might have raved in sympathy; But now I took the food that
woman offered me; 53.

And then they rode to the dykes, and saw them double dyked with full
warlike walls; and there were lodged many great lords nigh the walls;
and there was great noise of minstrelsy; and the sea beat upon the one
side of the walls, where were many ships and mariners' noise with
``hale and how.

And then came in the Red Knight of the Red Launds, and Sir Gareth,
from the castle, and there encountered with them Sir Bors de Ganis and
Sir Bleoberis, and there the Red Knight and Sir Bors [either] smote
other so hard that their spears brast, and their horses fell
grovelling to the earth.

`And thenk what wo ther hath bitid er this, For makinge of avantes, as
men rede; And what mischaunce in this world yet ther is, 290 Fro day
to day, right for that wikked dede; For which these wyse clerkes that
ben dede Han ever yet proverbed to us yonge, That "Firste vertu is to
kepe tonge.

And then Sir Launcelot drew his sword, and there he smote on the right
hand and on the left hand, and by great force he unhorsed Sir Safere,
Sir Epinogris, and Sir Galleron; and then the knights of the Table
Round withdrew them aback, after they had gotten their horses as well
as they might.

And then the other chield got up, and said, he caredna whether Morris
was rubbed or no, provided it wasna to become a stain on ony
gentleman's honour and reputation, especially in the north of England;
for, said he before them, I come frae the north mysell, and I carena a
boddle wha kens it.

And then a great cry of rejoicing rose among the free men of Marentina
and the Kadabran prisoners, for all had thought that the red men would
retain that which they had taken by force of arms, for such had been
the way upon Barsoom, and that they should be ruled henceforth by an
alien Jeddak.

And then the good man and Sir Launcelot went into the chapel; and the
good man took a stole about his neck, and a book, and then he conjured
on that book; and with that they saw in an hideous figure and
horrible, that there was no man so hard-hearted nor so hard but he
should have been afeard.

And then it occurred to him how he might make one, and that was by
tearing a great strip off the tail of his shirt which hung down, and
making eleven knots on it, one bigger than the rest, and this served
him for a rosary all the time he was there, during which he repeated
countless ave-marias.

And then he cried upon him aloud: Most noble knight, Sir Launcelot du
Lake, save my life, for I yield me unto you, and I require you, as ye
be a knight and fellow of the Table Round, slay me not, for I yield me
as overcome; and whether I shall live or die I put me in the king's
hands and yours.

And then, when all was said, although the President was a kindly and a
tolerably intelligent man, he was, at the same time, a devoted and
almost an ardent royalist, and he had been shocked to hear the Mayor
of M. sur M. say the Emperor, and not Bonaparte, when alluding to the
landing at Cannes.

And then, you know," said Ernest to me, when I asked him not long
since to give me more of his childish reminiscences for the benefit of
my story, "we used to learn Mrs Barbauld's hymns; they were in prose,
and there was one about the lion which began, 'Come, and I will show
you what is strong.

And then I rose and up, leaving my wife in bed, and to my brother's,
where I set them on cleaning the house, and my wife coming anon to
look after things, I up and down to my cozen Stradwicke's and uncle
Fenner's about discoursing for the funeral, which I am resolved to put
off till Friday next.

And then he fell to explain to me his manner of casting the draught of
water which a ship will draw before-hand: which is a secret the King
and all admire in him; and he is the first that hath come to any
certainty before-hand, of foretelling the draught of water of a ship
before she be launched.

And then the farmer in Maine or California or Texas would buy this, at
say twenty-five dollars a ton, and plant it with his corn; and for
several days after the operation the fields would have a strong odor,
and the farmer and his wagon and the very horses that had hauled it
would all have it too.

And then Sir Nerovens told Sir Launcelot that he should not go by the
Castle of Pendragon: For there is a lord, a mighty knight, and many
knights with him, and this night I heard say that they took a knight
prisoner yesterday that rode with a damosel, and they say he is a
Knight of the Round Table.

And then she thanked God and Sir Launcelot; and so he rode his way
with the queen, as the French book saith, unto Joyous Gard, and there
he kept her as a noble knight should do; and many great lords and some
kings sent Sir Launcelot many good knights, and many noble knights
drew unto Sir Launcelot.

And then, and not till then, I said to Annie, "Annie, Doctor Strong
will not only be your husband, but he will represent your late father:
he will represent the head of our family, he will represent the wisdom
and station, and I may say the means, of our family; and will be, in
short, a Boon to it.

And then, you, you come; you are certainly obliged to preserve order,
you lead off the woman who is in the wrong; but on reflection, since
you are a good man, you say that I am to be set at liberty; it is for
the sake of the little one, for six months in prison would prevent my
supporting my child.

And then again my spendings this year have exceeded my spendings the
last by L644: my whole spendings last year being but L509; whereas
this year, it appears, I have spent L1154, which is a sum not fit to
be said that ever I should spend in one year, before I am master of a
better estate than I am.

And then Sir Bors laid him down to rest, and then he heard and felt
much noise in that chamber; and then Sir Bors espied that there came
in, he wist not whether at the doors nor windows, shot of arrows and
of quarrels so thick that he marvelled, and many fell upon him and
hurt him in the bare places.

And then they laid their spears in their rests, and they came together
as thunder, and Sir Gawaine brake his spear upon Sir Launcelot in a
hundred pieces unto his hand; and Sir Launcelot smote him with a
greater might, that Sir Gawaine's horse's feet raised, and so the
horse and he fell to the earth.

And then for flowers, they are best seen in a little plat by
themselves; besides, their borders spoil the walks of another garden:
and then for fruit, the best way is to have walls built circularly one
within another, to the South, on purpose for fruit, and leave the
walking garden only for that use.

And then when Sir Beaumains' helm was off, he looked up to the window,
and there he saw the fair lady Dame Lionesse, and she made him such
countenance that his heart waxed light and jolly; and therewith he
bade the Red Knight of the Red Launds make him ready, and let us do
the battle to the utterance.

And then Sir Tristram gave the King of Northgalis King Arthur's horse:
then was there great press about King Arthur for to horse him again;
but Sir Palomides would not suffer King Arthur to be horsed again, but
ever Sir Palomides smote on the right hand and on the left hand
mightily as a noble knight.

And then each ghost with his ladye-toast to their churchyard beds
takes flight, With a kiss, perhaps, on her lantern chaps, and a grisly
grim "good-night"; Till the welcome knell of the midnight bell rings
forth its jolliest tune, And ushers in our next high holiday--the dead
of the night's high-noon!

And then Merlin said unto Arthur, These eleven kings have more on hand
than they are ware of, for the Saracens are landed in their countries,
more than forty thousand, that burn and slay, and have laid siege at
the castle Wandesborow, and make great destruction; therefore dread
you not this three year.

And then they returned to terra firma, that is to say, to some passage
that led them to the little girls' dancing-school, where brats between
six and ten were practising their steps, in the hope of becoming great
dancers one day, "covered with diamonds...." Meanwhile, Christine gave
them sweets instead.

And then Sir Bors saw four gentlewomen come by him, purely beseen: and
he saw where that they entered into a chamber where was great light as
it were a summer light; and the women kneeled down afore an altar of
silver with four pillars, and as it had been a bishop kneeled down
afore that table of silver.

And then she went to the porridge of the Little, Small, Wee Bear, and
tasted that; and that was neither too hot, nor too cold, but just
right; and she liked it so well, that she ate it all up: but the
naughty old Woman said a bad word about the little porridge-pot,
because it did not hold enough for her.

And then, at the highest pitch of your enthusiasm, you shouted: "Yes,
if to put an end to this hateful system, it should become necessary
for me to shed the last drop of my blood, I would joyfully spring into
the gap, asking only time enough to give thanks to God for having
judged me worthy of martyrdom!

And then, again, to make the wisest of men say that nothing in his
opinion is more glorious than When the tables are full of bread and
meat, and the cup-bearer carries round wine which he draws from the
bowl and pours into the cups, is it fit or conducive to temperance for
a young man to hear such words?

And then, reflecting that at the present moment there was far more
likelihood of our earthly careers being cut exceedingly short than of
their being unduly prolonged, I at last managed to get to sleep, a
fact for which anybody who reads this narrative, if anybody ever does,
may very probably be thankful.

And then about several stories of the basenesse of the King of
Spayne's being served with officers: they in Flanders having as good
common men as any Prince in the world, but the veriest cowards for the
officers, nay for the generall officers, as the Generall and
Lieutenant- generall, in the whole world.

And then he strove to recall his mind and to think of other affairs,
his parish, his college, his creed--but his thoughts would revert to
Mrs Bold and the Flemish chieftain: When we think upon it How little
flattering is woman's love, Given commonly to whosoe'er is nearest And
propped with most advantage.

And then, when, after a day spent in meditation, he returned in the
evening through the boulevards, and caught a glimpse through the
branches of the trees of the fathomless space beyond, the nameless
gleams, the abyss, the shadow, the mystery, all that which is only
human seemed very pretty indeed to him.

And then he took him a scarlet coat, so that should be instead of his
shirt till he had fulfilled the quest of the Sangreal; and the good
man found in him so marvellous a life and so stable, that he marvelled
and felt that he was never corrupt in fleshly lusts, but in one time
that he begat Elian le Blank.

And then it must be remembered that such a marriage as that which the
archdeacon contemplated with disgust, which we who know Mr Slope so
well would regard with equal disgust, did not appear so monstrous to
Mr Harding, because in his charity he did not hate the chaplain as the
archdeacon did, and as we do.

And then to Deptford, where we staid and did the same; and so took
barge again, and were overtaken by the King in his barge, he having
been down the river with his yacht this day for pleasure to try it;
and, as I hear, Commissioner Pett's do prove better than the Dutch
one, and that that his brother built.

And then was it three days or that she could find him, and then she
brought him meat and drink, but he would none; and then another time
Sir Tristram escaped away from the damosel, and it happed him to ride
by the same castle where Sir Palomides and Sir Tristram did battle
when La Beale Isoud departed them.

And then he was called on to compare, as it were, the prospects of
this unfortunate with those of his own darling; to contrast all that
was murky, foul, and disheartening, with all that was perfect--for to
him she was all but perfect; to liken Louis Scatcherd to the angel who
brightened his own hearthstone.

And then as two green-ridged, white-topped, broad-swung, overwhelming,
vehement billows of the deep, they met and crashed and sunk into and
rolled away from each other; and the noise of these two waves was as
the roar of all ocean when the howl of the tempest is drowned in the
league-long fury of the surge.

And then to regard this work of cleansing and beautifying the domains
of Mount Zion as that preparatory to the visitation of the Most High,
is something which speaks to the heart and says: 'Dost thou appear as
beautiful, as clean, and as comely in the sight of God as do these
elements of an unthinking world?

And then he proceeds to ask of some one who is incredulous, whether a
man lasts longer, or the coat which is in use and wear; and when he is
answered that a man lasts far longer, thinks that he has thus
certainly demonstrated the survival of the man, who is the more
lasting, because the less lasting remains.

And then he turned again unto Sir Melias, and there he alighted and
dressed him softly on his horse to-fore him, for the truncheon of his
spear was in his body; and Sir Galahad stert up behind him, and held
him in his arms, and so brought him to the abbey, and there unarmed
him and brought him to his chamber.

And then came the terrible news that the whole world was gathering in
arms against us; I could not deny that these were important matters,
but still I felt certain, if all went well, a time would come at last
when you need not grudge me your company, and we should be together to
my heart's content, you and I.

And then taking with him the priests and Initiates and the Initiators,
and encompassing them with his soldiers, he conducted them with great
order and profound silence; an august and venerable procession,
wherein all who did not envy him said, he performed at once the office
of a high-priest and of a general.

And then, in the gilt and tooled volumes which we open once in ten
years," he went on, shewing that contempt for the things of this world
which some men of the world like to affect, "we should read that the
Queen of the Hellenes had arrived at Cannes, or that the Princesse de
Léon had given a fancy dress ball.

And then a number of things happened, almost simultaneously--the lion
sprang from his ambush toward the retreating black--Tarzan cried out
in warning--and the black turned just in time to see Numa halted in
mid-flight by a slender strand of grass rope, the noosed end of which
had fallen cleanly about his neck.

And then, how were we not to suppose that our servants, living in a
situation inferior to our own, adding to our fortunes and to our
frailties imaginary riches and vices for which they at once envied and
despised us, should not find themselves led by fate to act in a manner
abhorrent to people of our own class?

And then, in this case there was perfection attained, the will of the
highest was perfectly fulfilled, the will of mankind was perfectly
enacted; for was not mankind mystically contra-distinguished against
inanimate Matter, was not the history of mankind just the history of
the conquest of the one by the other?

And then the king let blow to lodging; and because Sir Palomides began
first, and never he went nor rode out of the field to repose, but ever
he was doing marvellously well either on foot or on horseback, and
longest during, King Arthur and all the kings gave Sir Palomides the
honour and the gree as for that day.

And then, when they quote the Holy Scriptures!- anyone would say they
are St. Thomases or other doctors of the Church, observing as they do
a decorum so ingenious that in one sentence they describe a distracted
lover and in the next deliver a devout little sermon that it is a
pleasure and a treat to hear and read.

And then the kings--the son of Jesse, a hero in war, and a singer of
songs eternal as that of the sea; and his son, who, passing all other
kings in riches and wisdom, and while making the Desert habitable, and
in its waste places planting cities, forgot not Jerusalem which the
Lord had chosen for his seat on earth.

And then the Goddess took her zone,--where lies All her enchantment,
love and lustihead, And the glad converse that beguiles the wise, And
grace the very Gods may not despise, And sweet Desire that doth the
whole world move, - And therewith touch'd she Helen's sleeping eyes
And made her lovely as the Queen of Love.

And then with lank and lean discolour'd cheek, With heavy eye, knit
brow, and strengthless pace, Feeble desire, all recreant, poor, and
meek, Like to a bankrupt beggar wails his case: The flesh being proud,
desire doth fight with Grace, For there it revels; and when that
decays, The guilty rebel for remission prays.

And then all the kings and knights for the most part prayed Sir
Launcelot to search him; and then the wounded knight, Sir Urre, set
him up weakly, and prayed Sir Launcelot heartily, saying: Courteous
knight, I require thee for God's sake heal my wounds, for methinketh
ever sithen ye came here my wounds grieve me not.

And then one afternoon, the ninth of his work in the place, when he
went to get his overcoat he saw a group of men crowded before a
placard on the door, and when he went over and asked what it was, they
told him that beginning with the morrow his department of the
harvester works would be closed until further notice!

"And then," I continued, "though I have only sisterly affection for
him now, yet, if forced to be his wife, I can imagine the possibility
of conceiving an inevitable, strange, torturing kind of love for him,
because he is so talented; and there is often a certain heroic
grandeur in his look, manner, and conversation."

And then when it happed any of them to be of great worship by his
noble deeds, then at the next Feast of Pentecost, if there were any
slain or dead, as there was none year that there failed but some were
dead, then was there chosen in his stead that was dead the most men of
worship, that were called the Queen's Knights.

And then Sir Launcelot alighted and dressed his shield on his
shoulder, with his sword in his hand, and Sir Meliagrance in the same
wise dressed him unto him, and there they smote many great strokes
together; and at the last Sir Launcelot smote him such a buffet upon
the helmet that he fell on the one side to the earth.

And then, sir, you know, I love reading and scribbling; and though all
the latter will be employed in the family accounts, between the
servants and me, and me and your good self: yet reading, at proper
times, will be a pleasure to me, which I shall be unwilling to give
up, for the best company in the world, except yours.

And then they avoided their horses as noble knights, and dressed their
shields, and drew their swords with ire and rancour, and they lashed
together many sad strokes, and one while striking, another while
foining, tracing and traversing as noble knights; thus they fought
long, near half a day, and either were sore wounded.

And then his precept, which he, in vain- glory, said he had drawn up
himself, and hath printed it, against coachmen and carrmen affronting
of the gentry in the street; it is drawn so like a fool, and some
faults were openly found in it, that I believe he will have so much
wit as not to proceed upon it though it be printed.

And then Sir Segwarides delivered all prisoners, and set good
governance in that valley; and so he returned into Cornwall, and told
King Mark and La Beale Isoud how Sir Tristram had advanced him to the
Isle of Servage, and there he proclaimed in all Cornwall of all the
adventures of these two knights, so was it openly known.

And then, as though it had slipped, with his latchkey, from his
waistcoat pocket, he would point out to us, when it stood before our
eyes, the back-gate of our own garden, which had come hand-in-hand
with the familiar corner of the Rue du Saint-Esprit, to await us, to
greet us at the end of our wanderings over paths unknown.

And then the dear critters say the bells make such a din there's no
hearin one's self speak; so they put their pretty little mugs close up
to your face, and talk, talk, talk, till one can't help lookin right
at them instead of the horse, and then whap you both go capsized into,
a snow drift together, skins, cushions and all.

And then the poor little man rubbed his hands, unconscious of the
indignant pity for his wretched abilities in the gaze of the Countess;
and he must have been exposed--there was a fear that the ghost of Sir
Abraham would have darkened this day, for Miss Carrington was about to
speak, when Lady Jocelyn cried: 'There's a purl!

And then, in proportion as he regained life, the old ulcers of his
memory opened once more, he reflected again on the past, Colonel
Pontmercy placed himself once more between M. Gillenormand and him,
Marius, he told himself that he had no true kindness to expect from a
person who had been so unjust and so hard to his father.

And then he made after another squadron, who were just come into port,
and were hauling their vessels ashore, but fought from the decks, and
sorely galled Lucullus's men; there being neither room to sail round
them, nor to bear upon them for any damage, his ships being afloat,
while theirs stood secure and fixed on the sand.

And then, it seems to proclaim to the public that you have the odious
courage, and are even under a legal obligation, to caress that
ridiculous face and that ill- shaped body, and that you will, without
doubt, be shameless enough to make a mother of this by no means
desirable being--which is the very height of the ridiculous.

And then, when he applied that Lady Alexandrina's small fortune should
be made over to him--according to a certain agreement under which he
had made over all his possessions to his wife, should she have
survived him--Mr Gazebee expressed a mild opinion that he was wrong in
his law, and blandly recommended an amicable lawsuit.

And then the widow was thin; she had long teeth; wore in all weathers
a little black shawl, the edge of which hung down between her
shoulder-blades; her bony figure was sheathed in her clothes as if
they were a scabbard; they were too short, and displayed her ankles
with the laces of her large boots crossed over grey stockings.

And then, as if it would not satisfy their hatred to destroy some by
hunger, and offer others to the mercy of a plague, they must proceed
to involve them also in a needless war of their own making, that no
calamity might be wanting to complete the punishment of the citizens
for refusing to submit to that of slavery to the rich.

And then Sir Tristram drew his sword and rode into the thickest of the
press against them of Orkney; and there he smote down knights, and
rashed off helms, and pulled away their shields, and hurtled down many
knights: he fared so that Sir Arthur and all knights had great marvel
when they saw one knight do so great deeds of arms.

And then, when we were at sea, sailing from port to port, instead of
giving us "watch and watch," as was the custom on board every other
vessel on the coast, we were all kept on deck and at work, rain or
shine, making spun-yarn and rope, and at other work in good weather,
and picking oakum, when it was too wet for anything else.

And then he's sic an auld-farran lang-headed chield as never took up
the trade o' cateran in our time; mony a daft reik he has played--mair
than wad fill a book, and a queer ane it wad be--as gude as Robin
Hood, or William Wallace--a' fu' o' venturesome deeds and escapes, sic
as folk tell ower at a winter ingle in the daft days.

And then her brother came to see her, and he being gone she told me
that she believed he was married and had a wife worth L500 to him, and
did inquire how he might dispose the money to the best advantage, but
I forbore to advise her till she could certainly tell me how things
are with him, being loth to meddle too soon with him.

And then he asked me three gifts; and one he asked the same day, that
was that I would give him meat enough that twelvemonth; and the other
two gifts he asked that day a twelvemonth, and that was that he might
have the adventure of the damosel Linet, and the third was that Sir
Launcelot should make him knight when he desired him.

And then in the evening walked in the garden, where we conjured him to
look after the yard, and for the time to come that he would take the
whole faults and ill management of the yard upon himself, he having
full power and our concurrence to suspend or do anything else that he
thinks fit to keep people and officers to their duty.

And thence to Westminster Hall, where I met Fitzgerald; and with him
to a tavern, to consider of the instructions for Sir Thomas Allen,
against his going to Algiers; he and I being designed to go down to
Portsmouth by the Council's order, and by and by he and I went to the
Duke of York, who orders me to go down to-morrow morning.

And then they despoiled him, and put upon him this shirt, and cast him
in a fire, and there he lay all that night till it was day in that
fire, and was not dead, and so in the morn I came and found him dead;
but I found neither thread nor skin tamed, and so took him out of the
fire with great fear, and laid him here as ye may see.

And thence I to the Excise Office about some tallies, and then to the
Exchange, where I did much business, and so home to dinner, and then
to the office, where busy all the afternoon till night, and then home
to supper, and after supper an hour reading to my wife and brother
something in Chaucer with great pleasure, and so to bed.

And then Mary would talk as though they three were joined in some
close peculiar bond together; as though they were in future always to
wish together, contrive together, and act together; and Eleanor could
not gainsay this; she could not make another speech, and say, 'Mr Bold
and I are strangers, Mary, and are always to remain so!

And then King Arthur was wroth when he saw Sir Launcelot do such
deeds; and then the king called unto him Sir Gawaine, Sir Mordred, Sir
Kay, Sir Griflet, Sir Lucan the Butler, Sir Bedivere, Sir Palomides,
Sir Safere, his brother; and so the king with these nine knights made
them ready to set upon Sir Launcelot, and upon Sir Lavaine.

And then on four different times the two ladies had to retire into Mrs
Broughton's room in order that Jael might be arrayed in various
costumes--and in each costume she had to kneel down, taking the hammer
in her hand, and holding the pointed stick which had been prepared to
do duty as the nail, upon the forehead of the dummy Sisera.

And then she slept; and then she rose refreshed; and met her father
with her kindest embrace and most loving smiles; and on the whole
their breakfast was by no means so triste as had been their dinner the
day before; and then, making some excuse to her father for so soon
leaving him, she started on the commencement of her operations.

And then he said, So affectionate a father and daughter may, perhaps,
be glad to be alone together; therefore remember me to your good wife,
and tell her, it will not be long, I hope, before I see you together;
on a visit to your daughter, at my other house: and so I wish you good
night, and a good journey, if you go before I see you.

And then look at yourselves, mark the numbers and efficiency of the
heavy infantry marching in your ranks, and do not give way too much to
despondency, but reflect that you are yourselves at once a city
wherever you sit down, and that there is no other in Sicily that could
easily resist your attack, or expel you when once established.

And then Pantagruel, for an eternal memorial, wrote this victorial
ditton, as followeth:-- Here was the prowess made apparent of Four
brave and valiant champions of proof, Who, without any arms but wit,
at once, Like Fabius, or the two Scipions, Burnt in a fire six hundred
and threescore Crablice, strong rogues ne'er vanquished before.

And then about nine o'clock to Mrs. Mercer's gate, where the fire and
boys expected us, and her son had provided abundance of serpents and
rockets; and there mighty merry (my Lady Pen and Pegg going thither
with us, and Nan Wright), till about twelve at night, flinging our
fireworks, and burning one another and the people over the way.

And then, in the curious way in which inspired words will sometimes
occur to the mind quite apart from their inspired context, and bearing
a totally different meaning from that which they primarily bear, these
words came to Jane: "For He is our peace, Who hath made both one, and
hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us .

And then, in her joy and confusion at the combination of neatness and
daring which there had been in making so discreet and yet so
unmistakable an allusion to the new and brilliantly successful play by
Dumas, she broke down in a charming, girlish laugh, not very loud, but
so irresistible that it was some time before she could control it.

And then you, Araspas, must hold the right wing in the position it has
now, and the rest of you who command a thousand men must do the same
with your divisions: it is no time to be changing horses when the race
is being run; and you will send word to the brigadiers and captains
under you to draw up the phalanx with each company two deep.

And then, besides these performances of his depending on his own
strength of mind and body, fortune was also very favorable to him; for
he seldom failed of success in his wars; and when he failed, he was
not himself the occasion of such failings, but he either vas betrayed
by some, or the rashness of his own soldiers procured his defeat.

And then he took such a <340>thought suddenly that he was all
dismayed, and other cheer made he none but with clipping and kissing;
as for other fleshly lusts Sir Tristram never thought nor had ado with
her: such mention maketh the French book; also it maketh mention that
the lady weened there had been no pleasure but kissing and clipping.

And thenceforward, he says, Parysatis watched her advantage against
Statira, and made up poison for her; not a very probable story, or a
very likely motive to account for her conduct, if indeed he means that
out of respect to Clearchus she dared to attempt the life of the
lawful queen, that was mother of those who were heirs of the empire.

And then Dr. Franklin began to share his deepest hopes and fears about
the outcome of their efforts, and this is what he said: "I have often
looked at that picture behind the President without being able to tell
whether it was a rising or setting Sun: But now at length I have the
happiness to know that it is a rising and not a setting Sun.

And then came the farmer, a good-like sort of man, grave, and well-
behaved; and spoke to me in such sort, as made me a little pacified;
and seeing no help for it, I went in; and the wife immediately
conducted me up stairs to the best apartment, and told me, that was
mine as long as I staid: and nobody should come near me but when I
called.

And thence to Sir W. Batten's, whither Sir Richard Ford came, the
Sheriffe, who hath been at this fire all the while; and he tells me,
upon my question, that he and the Mayor were there, as it is their
dutys to be, not only to keep the peace, but they have power of
commanding the pulling down of any house or houses, to defend the
whole City.

And then he must needs have me down in the country, to lead the life
of a nun, lest I should dishonour him or bring him to ruin; as if he
had not been ten times worse every way, with his betting-book, and his
gaming- table, and his opera-girls, and his Lady This and Mrs. That--
yes, and his bottles of wine, and glasses of brandy-and-water too!

And then--' he stopped on the snow and suddenly opened his clenched
hands--'it's nothing--your brain might have gone charred as rags--
and--' he looked round into the air with a queer histrionic movement
'it's blasting--you understand what I mean--it is a great experience,
something final--and then--you're shrivelled as if struck by
electricity.

And then they took the way under the castle, and there they lost the
way that Sir Galahad rode, and there everych of them departed from
other; and Sir Gawaine rode till he came to an hermitage, and there he
found the good man saying his evensong of Our Lady; and there Sir
Gawaine asked harbour for charity, and the good man granted it him
gladly.

And then he held up his hands, and looked into the east, saying
secretly unto himself: Thou blessed Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, I
beseech thee of thy mercy, that my simple worship and honesty be
saved, and thou blessed Trinity, thou mayst give power to heal this
sick knight by thy great virtue and grace of thee, but, Good Lord,
never of myself.

And then, when you were for choosing as your general the Paphlagonian
tanner, hateful to the gods, we contracted our brows and were enraged;
and thunder burst through the lightning; and the Moon forsook her
usual paths; and the Sun immediately drew in his wick to himself, and
declared he would not give you light, if Cleon should be your general.

And then I clasped my hands and looked around-- --But none was near to
mock my streaming eyes, Which poured their warm drops on the sunny
ground-- _30 So without shame I spake:--'I will be wise, And just, and
free, and mild, if in me lies Such power, for I grow weary to behold
The selfish and the strong still tyrannise Without reproach or check.

And then Tiphys leapt on board to urge the youths to push at the right
moment; and calling on them he shouted loudly; and they at once,
leaning with all their strength, with one push started the ship from
her place, and strained with their feet, forcing her onward; and
Pelian Argo followed swiftly; and they on each side shouted as they
rushed on.

And then I would be obliged to pause for breath; so stifling was the
pressure, upon that part of me where it was for ever inscribed, of
that name which, at the moment when I heard it, seemed to me fuller,
more portentous than any other name, because it was burdened with the
weight of all the occasions on which I had secretly uttered it in my
mind.

And then Dame Prudence, without delay or tarrying, sent anon her
messengers for their kin and for their old friends, which were true
and wise; and told them by order, in the presence of Meliboeus, all
this matter, as it is above expressed and declared; and prayed them
that they would give their advice and counsel what were best to do in
this need.

And then it occurred to me suddenly that my parents could not fail to
experience the same emotions, that they must find themselves sharing
my point of view, that they perceived in their turn, that they
condoned, that they even embraced my visionary longings, and I was as
wretched as though I had ravished and corrupted the innocence of their
hearts.

And then he told him this and that, And swore thereto, that it was
sooth; "Thus hath he said," and "Thus he do'th," And "Thus shall 't
be," and "Thus heard I say "That shall be found, that dare I lay;"*
*wager That all the folk that is alive Have not the cunning to
descrive* *describe The thinges that I hearde there, What aloud, and
what in th'ear.

And then it winnowed the Elysian air Which ever hung about that lady
bright, With its aethereal vans--and speeding there, Like a star up
the torrent of the night, Or a swift eagle in the morning glare _405
Breasting the whirlwind with impetuous flight, The pinnace, oared by
those enchanted wings, Clove the fierce streams towards their upper
springs.

And then I thought I saw, but dare not speak _270 With certainty of
such a wondrous thing, A child, who could not have been born a week,
Those fair-horned cattle closely following, And in his hand he held a
polished stick: And, as on purpose, he walked wavering _275 From one
side to the other of the road, And with his face opposed the steps he
trod.

And then an idea came across her mind that she hated Patience Oriel;
and then, instantly another idea followed--quick as such thoughts are
quick--that she did not hate Patience Oriel at all; that she liked
her, nay, loved her; that Patience Oriel was a sweet girl; and that
she hoped the time would come when she might see her the lady of
Greshamsbury.

And then Prospero embraced his brother, and again assured him of his
forgiveness; and said that a wise overruling Providence had permitted
that he should be driven from his poor dukedom of Milan, that his
daughter might inherit the crown of Naples, for that by their meeting
in this desert island, it had happened that the king's son had loved
Miranda.

And then her own work in the matter, which should have culminated at
one o'clock in Lord Grenville's dining-room, when the relentless agent
of the French Government would finally learn who was this mysterious
Scarlet Pimpernel, who so openly defied an army of spies and placed
himself so boldly, and for mere sport, on the side of the enemies of
France.

And then Gratiano, who loved to copy what his lord did, thought he
must make a speech like Bassanio's, and he said, in Nerissa's hearing,
who was writing in her clerk's dress by the side of Portia: 'I have a
wife, whom I protest I love; I wish she were in heaven, if she could
but entreat some power there to change the cruel temper of this
currish Jew.

And then holding forth the broken arm, he began a long and very
learned lecture of anatomy, in which simple and double fractures were
most accurately considered; and the several ways in which Jones might
have broken his arm were discussed, with proper annotations showing
how many of these would have been better, and how many worse than the
present case.

And then she called out of the hollow turrets Of those high clouds,
white, golden and vermilion, The armies of her ministering spirits--
In mighty legions, million after million, _460 They came, each troop
emblazoning its merits On meteor flags; and many a proud pavilion Of
the intertexture of the atmosphere They pitched upon the plain of the
calm mere.

And then curious indeed was it to see how many people suddenly came
into view on the river--to see how they appeared to issue from below
the very ice itself, and, hurrying to and fro like jackdaws startled
by the shot of a gun, to dart hither and thither, and to seize up
planks and boathooks, and to throw them down again, and once more to
seize them up.

And then, despite the nakedness and poverty wherein they had first
seen us, they would have it that we were gods sent down to them from
the world beyond the mountains by their fathers of old time; for of
Holy Church, and the Blessed Trinity, and the Mother of God they knew
no more than did I at that time, but were heathen, as the Gentiles of
yore agone.

And then these camels were no use, and Peachey said to Dravot—‘For the
Lord’s sake, let’s get out of this before our heads are chopped off,’
and with that they killed the camels all among the mountains, not
having anything in particular to eat, but first they took off the
boxes with the guns and the ammunition, till two men came along
driving four mules.

And then was he ware where came from a wood there fast by a knight all
armed, upon a white horse, with a strange shield of strange arms; and
he came riding all that he might run, and so he came to Sir Bors, and
said thus: Fair knight, I pray you be not displeased, for here must a
better knight than ye are have this battle, therefore I pray you
withdraw you.

And then he drew a dial from his poke, And, looking on it with lack-
lustre eye, Says very wisely, 'It is ten o'clock: Thus we may see,'
quoth he, 'how the world wags; 'Tis but an hour ago since it was nine;
And after one hour more 'twill be eleven; And so, from hour to hour,
we ripe and ripe, And then, from hour to hour, we rot and rot; And
thereby hangs a tale.

And then up to the Duke, and was with him giving him an account how
matters go, and of the necessity there is of a power to presse seamen,
without which we cannot really raise men for this fleete of twelve
sayle, besides that it will assert the King's power of pressing, which
at present is somewhat doubted, and will make the Dutch believe that
we are in earnest.

And then Sir Gareth prayed Dame Lionesse and the Red Knight of the Red
Launds, and Sir Persant and his brother, and Sir Gringamore, that in
no wise there should none of them tell not his name, and make no more
of him than of the least knight that there was, For, he said, I will
not be known of neither more nor less, neither at the beginning
neither at the ending.

And then he's come o' guid kith and kin--My heart warms to the poor
thoughtless callant, Mr. Hammorgaw--and then the penny fee"-- In the
latter part of this instructive communication, Mr. Fairservice lowered
his voice to a tone better beseeming the conversation in a place of
public resort on a Sabbath evening, and his companion and he were soon
beyond my hearing.

And then one by one they got up and stood, and went a-weaving around
the ring so gentle and wavy and graceful, the men looking ever so tall
and airy and straight, with their heads bobbing and skimming along,
away up there under the tent-roof, and every lady's rose- leafy dress
flapping soft and silky around her hips, and she looking like the most
loveliest parasol.

And then to the publique management of business: it is done, as he
observes, so loosely and so carelessly, that the kingdom can never be
happy with it, every man looking after himself, and his owne lust and
luxury; among other things he instanced in the business of money, he
do believe that half of what money the Parliament gives the King is
not so much as gathered.

And then Sir Launcelot said unto Guenever, in hearing of the king and
them all: Madam, now I must depart from you and this noble fellowship
for ever; and sithen it is so, I beseech you to pray for me, and say
me well; and if ye be hard bestead by any false tongues, lightly my
lady send me word, and if any knight's hands may deliver you by
battle, I shall deliver you.

And then the archdeacon became very confidential about money matters--
not offering anything to his son, which, as he well knew, would be
seen through as palpable bribery and corruption--but telling him of
this little scheme and of that, of one investment and of another;--how
he contemplated buying a small property here, and spending a few
thousands on building there.

And then he knew well that he lay not by the queen; and therewith he
leapt out of his bed as he had been a wood man, in his shirt, and the
queen met him in the floor; and thus she said: False traitor knight
that thou art, look thou never abide in my court, and avoid my
chamber, and not so hardy, thou false traitor knight that thou art,
that ever thou come in my sight.

And then, the presence of Aramis, who had returned from Belle-Isle,
and been nominated by Monsieur Fouquet inspector-general of all the
arrangements; his perseverance in mixing himself up with all the
surintendant's affairs; his visits to Baisemeaux; all this suspicious
singularity of conduct had excessively troubled and tormented
D'Artagnan during the last two weeks.

And then the Bishop had of the king his great seal, and his assurance
as he was a true anointed king that Sir Launcelot should come safe,
and go safe, and that the queen should not be spoken unto of the king,
nor of none other, for no thing done afore time past; and of all these
appointments the Bishop brought with him sure assurance and writing,
to shew Sir Launcelot.

And then, for measured moments in the night watches or as one walks
alone or while one sits in thought and speech with a friend, the wider
aspirations glow again with a sincere emotion, with the colours of
attainable desire.... That is my all about Utopia, and about the
desire and need for Utopia, and how that planet lies to this planet
that bears the daily lives of men.

And then, speaking of the supplies which have been made to this
fleete, more than ever in all kinds to any, even that wherein the Duke
of Yorke himself was, "Well," says he, "if this will not do, I will
say, as Sir J. Falstaffe did to the Prince, 'Tell your father, that if
he do not like this let him kill the next Piercy himself,'"--["King
Henry IV.," Part I, act v., sc.

And then Beaumains threw his shield from him, and proffered to fight
with Sir Launcelot on foot; and so they rushed together like boars,
tracing, rasing, and foining to the mountenance of an hour; and Sir
Launcelot felt him <215>so big that he marvelled of his strength, for
he fought more liker a giant than a knight, and that his fighting was
durable and passing perilous.

And then when he awaked, he said: Alas, Sir Gawaine, my sister's son,
here now thou liest; the man in the world that I loved most; and now
is my joy gone, for now, my nephew Sir Gawaine, I will discover me
unto your person: in Sir Launcelot and you I most had my joy, and mine
affiance, and now have I lost my joy of you both; wherefore all mine
earthly joy is gone from me.

And then there was an abundance of fire-wood at Wolf Creek; indeed,
here and on Hackberry Creek--where I intended to make my next camp--
was the only timber north of the Canadian River; and to select the
halting places near a plentiful supply of wood was almost
indispensable, for as the men were provided with only shelter-tents,
good fires were needed in order to keep warm.

And then began thy journey over the Waste of Nought, and thy dream
camel bore thee well when those of certain of thy fellow travellers
fell down in the Waste and were covered over by the silence and were
turned again to nought; and those travellers when their dream camels
fell, having nothing to carry them further over the Waste, were lost
beyond and never found the earth.

And then what shall I say of their attention to the time in which the
action they represent may or can take place, save that I have seen a
play where the first act began in Europe, the second in Asia, the
third finished in Africa, and no doubt, had it been in four acts, the
fourth would have ended in America, and so it would have been laid in
all four quarters of the globe?

And then Sir Launcelot with such knights as he had, and men of war to
the number of ten thousand, put them in array, and met with them and
fought with them manly, and slew and detrenched many of the Romans,
and slew many knights and admirals of the party of the Romans and
Saracens; there <162>was slain the king of Lyly and three great lords,
Aladuke, Herawd, and Heringdale.

And then did we, the seven, start from our seats in horror, and stand
trembling, and shuddering, and aghast, for the tones in the voice of
the shadow were not the tones of any one being, but of a multitude of
beings, and, varying in their cadences from syllable to syllable fell
duskly upon our ears in the well-remembered and familiar accents of
many thousand departed friends.

And then she had felt, somehow, more at her ease than for months and
months before; she didn't know why, but her time at the Museum, oddly,
had done it; it was as if she hadn't come into so many noble and
beautiful associations, nor secured them also for her boy, secured
them even for her father, only to see them turn to vanity and doubt,
turn possibly to something still worse.

And then Cyaxares answered: "Listen, Cyrus; I have been reputed royal
and of royal lineage as far back as the memory of man can go; my
father was a king and a king I myself was thought to be; and now I see
myself riding here, meanly and miserably attended, while you come
before me in splendour and magnificence, followed by the retinue that
once was mine and all your other forces.

And then anon the hermit staunched his blood, and made him to drink
good wine, so that Sir Launcelot was well refreshed and knew himself;
for in those days it was not the guise of hermits as is nowadays, for
there were none hermits in those days but that they had been men of
worship and of prowess; and those hermits held great household, and
refreshed people that were in distress.

And then he spoke so ingenuously and sincerely of the sacrifice he
made in withdrawing himself for a time from Ada, and of the
earnestness with which he aspired--as in thought he always did, I know
full well--to repay her love, and to ensure her happiness, and to
conquer what was amiss in himself, and to acquire the very soul of
decision, that he made my heart ache keenly, sorely.

And then the visitors were taken to the other parts of the building,
to see what became of each particle of the waste material that had
vanished through the floor; and to the pickling rooms, and the salting
rooms, the canning rooms, and the packing rooms, where choice meat was
prepared for shipping in refrigerator cars, destined to be eaten in
all the four corners of civilization.

And then the Durham bulls and the Yorkshire horses which Mr. Trevanion
sent you and me out as presents, were so tempting, I thought we might
fairly add one speculation to another; and since one of us must
superintend the bucolics, and two of us were required for the
pastorals, I think Vivian was the best of us three to entrust with the
first,--and certainly it has succeeded as yet.

--And then the voice of God was heard in that garden, calling His
creature man to account: and Michael, prince of the heavenly host,
with a sword of flame in his hand, appeared before the guilty pair and
drove them forth from Eden into the world, the world of sickness and
striving, of cruelty and disappointment, of labour and hardship, to
earn their bread in the sweat of their brow.

And then the two Dropt to the cove, and watched the great sea fall,
Wave after wave, each mightier than the last, Till last, a ninth one,
gathering half the deep And full of voices, slowly rose and plunged
Roaring, and all the wave was in a flame: And down the wave and in the
flame was borne A naked babe, and rode to Merlin's feet, Who stoopt
and caught the babe, and cried "The King!

And then she mentioned how often she had heard of Lady Southdown from
that excellent man the Reverend Lawrence Grills, Minister of the
chapel in May Fair, which she frequented; and how her views were very
much changed by circumstances and misfortunes; and how she hoped that
a past life spent in worldliness and error might not incapacitate her
from more serious thought for the future.

And then that Baron, who from branch to branch, Examining, had thus
conducted me, Till the extremest leaves we were approaching, Again
began: "The Grace that dallying Plays with thine intellect thy mouth
has opened, Up to this point, as it should opened be, So that I do
approve what forth emerged; But now thou must express what thou
believest, And whence to thy belief it was presented.

And then after this feast Sir Launcelot rode on his adventure, till on
a time by adventure he passed over the pont of Corbin; and there he
saw the fairest tower that ever he saw, and there-under was a fair
town full of people; and all the people, men and women, cried at once:
Welcome, Sir Launcelot du Lake, the flower of all knighthood, for by
thee all we shall be holpen out of danger.

And then were they horsed again, and then met Sir Launcelot with Sir
Palomides, and there Sir Palomides had a fall; and so Sir Launcelot or
ever he stint, as fast as he might get spears, he smote down thirty
knights, and the most part of them were knights of the Table Round;
and ever the knights of his blood withdrew them, and made them ado in
other places where Sir Launcelot came not.

And then, before he could let her know what had caused this sudden
resolve, or could point to the fatal paper which lay on the table, she
told him that the lawsuit was over, that Bold had commissioned her to
assure her father in his name that it would be abandoned,--that there
was no further cause for misery, that the whole matter might be looked
on as though it had never been discussed.

And then we marched confidently to the castle, where the savages
divided into two rows, and so let us pass through them by the gate,
which was--the one we went through--3 1/2 feet wide, and at the top
were standing three big wooden images, carved like men, and with them
I saw three scalps fluttering in the wind, that they had taken from
their foes as a token of the truth of their victory.

And thenceforward Nur al-Din ceased not so to administer the Wazirate
that the Sultan would not be parted from him night or day; and
increased his stipend and supplies until his means were ample and he
became the owner of ships that made trading voyages at his command, as
well as of Mamelukes and blackamoor slaves; and he laid out many
estates and set up Persian wheels and planted gardens.

And then the dwarf armed him lightly; and so the knight thought by
force and might to take the sword from Sir Launcelot, and so he came
stepping out; and when Sir Launcelot saw him come so all armed with
his sword in his hand, then Sir Launcelot flew to him with such a
might, and hit him upon the helm such a buffet, that the stroke
troubled his brains, and therewith the sword brake in three.

And then either embraced other to joust and came together as fast as
their horses might run, and brast their shields and the mails, and the
one more than the other; and Gawaine was wounded in the left side, but
the other knight was smitten through the breast, and the spear came
out on the other side, and so they fell both out of their saddles, and
in the falling they brake both their spears.

And then for the land service,--to see how the bear tore out his
shoulder-bone; how he cried to me for help, and said his name was
Antigonus, a nobleman.--But to make an end of the ship,--to see how
the sea flap-dragon'd it:--but first, how the poor souls roared, and
the sea mocked them;--and how the poor gentleman roared, and the bear
mocked him,--both roaring louder than the sea or weather.

And then another thing; you can see at the same time places which you
are in the habit of seeing one without the other, as, for instance,
the course of the Vivonne and the ditches at Saint-Assise-lès-Combray,
which are separated, really, by a screen of tall trees; or, to take
another example, there are all the canals at Jouy-le-Vicomte, which is
_Gaudiacus vicecomitis_, as of course you know.

And then he addressed her in courtly terms, as if the lowly-seeming
maid had been the high-born lady he wished to kind her, calling her
Fair and beautiful Marina, telling her a great prince on board that
ship had fallen into a sad and mournful silence; and, as if Marina had
the power of conferring health and felicity, he begged she would
undertake to cure the royal stranger of his melancholy.

And then there arose in my mind the recollection of a fact, which
probably no one here but myself remembers; namely, that some fourteen
years ago I was the guest of a citizen of yours, who bears the
honoured name of Rathbone, at a very charming and pleasant dinner
given by the Philomathic Society; and I there and then, and in this
very city, made a speech upon the topic of Scientific Education.

And then he dressed him against him, and said: Galahad, the servant of
Jesu Christ, whose coming I have abiden so long, now embrace me and
let me rest on thy breast, so that I may rest between thine arms, for
thou art a clean virgin above all knights, as the flower of the lily
in whom virginity is signified, and thou art the rose the which is the
flower of all good virtues, and in colour of fire.

And then, after all this diplomatic and rhetorical splutter, the high
commissioners recovered their temper and grew more polite, and the
King's "envoys excused themselves in a mild, merry manner," for the
rudeness of their speeches, and the Queen's envoys accepted their
apologies with majestic urbanity, and so they separated for the day in
a more friendly manner than they had done the day before.

And then," said a cadaverous looking personage, near the foot of the
table, taking up the thread of the conversation where it had been
broken off, -- "and then, among other oddities, we had a patient, once
upon a time, who very pertinaciously maintained himself to be a
Cordova cheese, and went about, with a knife in his hand, soliciting
his friends to try a small slice from the middle of his leg.

And then for the Land-seruice, to see how the Beare tore out his
shoulder-bone, how he cride to mee for helpe, and said his name was
Antigonus, a Nobleman: But to make an end of the Ship, to see how the
Sea flapdragon'd it: but first, how the poore soules roared, and the
sea mock'd them: and how the poore Gentleman roared, and the Beare
mock'd him, both roaring lowder then the sea, or weather Shep.

And then these persons would look around at the miles of unconquerable
nature stretching out on every side; and they would reflect upon the
thousands of leagues of salt water that parted them from the king who
was the source of these unwelcome orders; and, finally, they would
glance at the travel-stained and weary envoy with a pitying smile, and
offer him food and drink and a bed--but not obedience.

And then I told Joe that I felt very miserable, and that I hadn't been
able to explain myself to Mrs. Joe and Pumblechook, who were so rude
to me, and that there had been a beautiful young lady at Miss
Havisham's who was dreadfully proud, and that she had said I was
common, and that I knew I was common, and that I wished I was not
common, and that the lies had come of it somehow, though I didn't know
how.

And then he told how a friend--his good taste did not suffer him more
than to hint subtly who the friend was with such gracious fancies--had
laid a laurel wreath on the dead poet's heart; and the beautiful dead
hands had seemed to rest with a voluptuous passion upon Apollo's
leaves, fragrant with the fragrance of art, and more green than jade
brought by swart mariners from the manifold, inexplicable China.

And then, with one of those extraordinary transitions of which I have
already spoken, she again threw off her veil, and broke out, after the
ancient and poetic fashion of the dwellers in Arabia,[*] into a pæan
of triumph or epithalamium, which, wild and beautiful as it was, is
exceedingly difficult to render into English, and ought by rights to
be sung to the music of a cantata, rather than written and read.

And then,' she said, 'he laid me in a cave Above the waters, by that
chasm of sea, _2930 A fountain round and vast, in which the wave
Imprisoned, boiled and leaped perpetually, Down which, one moment
resting, he did flee, Winning the adverse depth; that spacious cell
Like an hupaithric temple wide and high, _2935 Whose aery dome is
inaccessible, Was pierced with one round cleft through which the
sunbeams fell.

And then he--a wanderer on the earth, a man without fortune, a man
without family, a soldier accustomed to inns, cabarets, taverns, and
restaurants, a lover of wine forced to depend upon chance treats--was
about to partake of family meals, to enjoy the pleasures of a
comfortable establishment, and to give himself up to those little
attentions which "the harder one is, the more they please," as old
soldiers say.

And then he glides about and speaks a word here and a word there, in
consequence of which, when the anti-official motion is made, a
considerable array of steady, grave faces sits behind the Treasury
Bench--nay, possibly a rising man who sits in outlying independence
below the gangway rises to defend the transaction; the department wins
by thirty-three, and the management of that business pursues its
steady way.

And then they dressed their shields and spears, and came together with
all their might of their horses; and they met so fiercely that both
their horses and knights fell to the earth, and as fast as they might
avoided their horses, and put their shields afore them; and they
struck together with bright swords, as men that were of might, and
either wounded other wonderly sore, that the blood ran out upon the
grass.

And then the night-wind steaming from the shore, _1405 Sent odours
dying sweet across the sea, And the swift boat the little waves which
bore, Were cut by its keen keel, though slantingly; Soon I could hear
the leaves sigh, and could see The myrtle-blossoms starring the dim
grove, _1410 As past the pebbly beach the boat did flee On sidelong
wing, into a silent cove, Where ebon pines a shade under the starlight
wove.

And thence with them to Mrs. Gotier's, the Queen's tire-woman, for a
pair of locks for my wife; she is an oldish French woman, but with a
pretty hand as most I have seen; and so home, and to supper, W.
Batelier and W. Hewer with us, and so my cold being great, and greater
by my having left my coat at my tailor's to-night and come home in a
thinner that I borrowed there, I went to bed before them and slept
pretty well.

And then, abruptly, the memory of his dead wife returned to him, and
probably thinking it too complicated to inquire into how, at such a
time, he could have allowed himself to be carried away by an impulse
of happiness, he confined himself to a gesture which he habitually
employed whenever any perplexing question came into his mind: that is,
he passed his hand across his forehead, dried his eyes, and wiped his
glasses.

And then her thoughts flew back to her old predictions, and the number
of times she had said, that Kate with no fortune would marry better
than other people's daughters with thousands; and, as she pictured
with the brightness of a mother's fancy all the beauty and grace of
the poor girl who had struggled so cheerfully with her new life of
hardship and trial, her heart grew too full, and the tears trickled
down her face.

And then when the repast is over and the tables removed, for the
knight to recline in the chair, picking his teeth perhaps as usual,
and a damsel, much lovelier than any of the others, to enter
unexpectedly by the chamber door, and herself by his side, and begin
to tell him what the castle is, and how she is held enchanted there,
and other things that amaze the knight and astonish the readers who
are perusing his history.

And then it happened also,--and verily, it happened for the first
time!-- that his word blessed SELFISHNESS, the wholesome, healthy
selfishness, that springeth from the powerful soul:-- --From the
powerful soul, to which the high body appertaineth, the handsome,
triumphing, refreshing body, around which everything becometh a
mirror: --The pliant, persuasive body, the dancer, whose symbol and
epitome is the self-enjoying soul.

And then he showed me, proved by elaborate calculations in his pocket-
book, that supposing he had contracted, say, two hundred pounds of
debt in six months out of the army; and that he contracted no debt at
all within a corresponding period in the army--as to which he had
quite made up his mind; this step must involve a saving of four
hundred pounds in a year, or two thousand pounds in five years, which
was a considerable sum.

And then there are countless, quiet, everyday heroes of American who
sacrifice long and hard so their children will know a better life than
they've known; church and civic volunteers who help to feed, clothe,
nurse, and teach the needy; millions who've made our nation and our
nation's destiny so very special-unsung heroes who may not have
realized their own dreams themselves but then who reinvest those
dreams in their children.

And then he offered it the third time; he put it the third time by;
and still, as he refused it, the rabblement shouted, and clapp'd their
chopt hands, and threw up their sweaty night-caps, and uttered such a
deal of stinking breath because Caesar refused the crown, that it had
almost choked Caesar, for he swooned and fell down at it: and for mine
own part, I durst not laugh for fear of opening my lips and receiving
the bad air.

And then the little sleeves were carefully rolled up, and the little
arms were plunged in elbow-deep to get the rushes a good long way down
before breaking them off--and for a while Alice forgot all about the
Sheep and the knitting, as she bent over the side of the boat, with
just the ends of her tangled hair dipping into the water--while with
bright eager eyes she caught at one bunch after another of the darling
scented rushes.

And then, while she was making them some orangeade, suddenly, just as
when the reflector of a lamp that is badly fitted begins by casting
all round an object, on the wall beyond it, huge and fantastic shadows
which, in time, contract and are lost in the shadow of the object
itself, all the terrible and disturbing ideas which he had formed of
Odette melted away and vanished in the charming creature who stood
there before his eyes.

And then turning to Cleon's wife, Dionysia, he said: 'Good madam, make
me blessed in your care in bringing up my child': and she answered: 'I
have a child myself who shall not be more dear to my respect than
yours, my lord'; and Cleon made the like promise, saying: 'Your noble
services, prince Pericles, in feeding my whole people with your corn
(for which in their prayers they daily remember you) must in your
child be thought on.

And then it was that, won by his mild charity, seeing that he was
acquainted with all the habits and customs of my own country, and
considering also that pardon for the only crime of which I was really
guilty might come with a double power from lips so benevolent and
kind, I besought him to receive my confession, under the seal of which
I recounted the Auteuil affair in all its details, as well as every
other transaction of my life.

And then she wept aloud, and in her arms Clasped that bright Shape,
less marvellously fair Than her own human hues and living charms;
_4650 Which, as she leaned in passion's silence there, Breathed warmth
on the cold bosom of the air, Which seemed to blush and tremble with
delight; The glossy darkness of her streaming hair Fell o'er that
snowy child, and wrapped from sight _4655 The fond and long embrace
which did their hearts unite.

And then he said, My name is Sir Pelleas, born in the Isles, and of
many isles I am lord, and never have I loved lady nor damosel till now
in an unhappy time; and, sir knight, since ye are so nigh cousin unto
King Arthur, and a king's son, therefore betray me not but help me,
for I may never come by her but by some good knight, for she is in a
strong castle here, fast by within this four mile, and over all this
country she is lady of.

And then along the highroad, spreading out its long ribbon of dust,
along the deep lanes that the trees bent over as in arbours, along
paths where the corn reached to the knees, with the sun on his back
and the morning air in his nostrils, his heart full of the joys of the
past night, his mind at rest, his flesh at ease, he went on, re-
chewing his happiness, like those who after dinner taste again the
truffles which they are digesting.

And then the usual DENOUEMENT after the fun had gone on fast and
furious he got 1190 landed into hot water and had to be spirited away
by a few friends, after a strong hint to a blind horse from John
Mallon of Lower Castle Yard, so as not to be made amenable under
section two of the criminal law amendment act, certain names of those
subpoenaed being handed in but not divulged for reasons which will
occur to anyone with a pick of brains.

And then--think of it still, oh Holly, for never shalt thou hear such
another tale, or see such another scene, nay, not even if I give thee
ten thousand years of life--and thou shalt have it in payment if thou
wilt--think: at last my deliverer came--he for whom I had watched and
waited through the generations--at the appointed time he came to seek
me, as I knew that he must come, for my wisdom could not err, though I
knew not when or how.

And then it is to be remembered that "our fathers; who framed the
Government under which we live",--the men who made the Constitution--
decided this same constitutional question in our favor, long ago;
decided it without division among themselves, when making the
decision, without division among themselves about the meaning of it
after it was made, and, so far as any evidence is left, without basing
it upon any mistaken statement of facts.

And then he taught the King to charm the Queen In such-wise, that no
man could see her more, Nor saw she save the King, who wrought the
charm, Coming and going, and she lay as dead, And lost all use of
life: but when the King Made proffer of the league of golden mines,
The province with a hundred miles of coast, The palace and the
princess, that old man Went back to his old wild, and lived on grass,
And vanished, and his book came down to me.

And then my mind made its first earnest effort to comprehend what had
been infused into it concerning heaven and hell; and for the first
time it recoiled, baffled; and for the first time glancing behind, on
each side, and before it, it saw all round an unfathomed gulf: it felt
the one point where it stood -- the present; all the rest was formless
cloud and vacant depth; and it shuddered at the thought of tottering,
and plunging amid that chaos.

And then there were apple pies, and peach pies, and pumpkin pies;
besides slices of ham and smoked beef; and moreover delectable dishes
of preserved plums, and peaches, and pears, and quinces; not to
mention broiled shad and roasted chickens; together with bowls of milk
and cream, all mingled higgledy- piggledy, pretty much as I have
enumerated them, with the motherly teapot sending up its clouds of
vapor from the midst-- Heaven bless the mark!

And then Lord Greystoke wiped his greasy fingers upon his naked thighs
and took up the trail of Kulonga, the son of Mbonga, the king; while
in far-off London another Lord Greystoke, the younger brother of the
real Lord Greystoke's father, sent back his chops to the club's CHEF
because they were underdone, and when he had finished his repast he
dipped his finger-ends into a silver bowl of scented water and dried
them upon a piece of snowy damask.

And thence he carried me to Mr. Streeter's, the famous history-painter
over the way, whom I have often heard of, but did never see him
before; and there I found him, and Dr. Wren, and several Virtuosos,
looking upon the paintings which he is making for the new Theatre at
Oxford: and, indeed, they look as if they would be very fine, and the
rest think better than those of Rubens in the Banqueting-house at
White Hall, but I do not so fully think so.

And thence to White Hall, and there staid in Mr. Wren's chamber with
him, reading over my draught of a letter, which Mr. Gibson then
attended me with; and there he did like all, but doubted whether it
would be necessary for the Duke to write in so sharp a style to the
Office, as I had drawn it in; which I yield to him, to consider the
present posture of the times and the Duke of York and whether it were
not better to err on that hand than the other.

And then he relates an anecdote of the husband, said to have been not
a bad fellow before he married his Diana; and the naming of the
Goddess reminds him that the second person in the indictment is now
everywhere called 'The elderly shepherd';--but immediately after the
bridal bells this husband became sour and insupportable, and either
she had the trick of putting him publicly in the wrong, or he lost all
shame in playing the churlish domestic tyrant.

And then he reflected that these had been two houses of God which had
received him in succession at two critical moments in his life: the
first, when all doors were closed and when human society rejected him;
the second, at a moment when human society had again set out in
pursuit of him, and when the galleys were again yawning; and that, had
it not been for the first, he should have relapsed into crime, and had
it not been for the second, into torment.

And then he begun to say what a great man Warcupp was, and something
else, and what was that but a great lyer; and told me a story, how at
table he did, they speaking about antipathys, say, that a rose
touching his skin any where, would make it rise and pimple; and, by
and by, the dessert coming, with roses upon it, the Duchesse bid him
try, and they did; but they rubbed and rubbed, but nothing would do in
the world, by which his lie was found at then.

And then finally, when election day came, the packing houses posted a
notice that men who desired to vote might remain away until nine that
morning, and the same night watchman took Jurgis and the rest of his
flock into the back room of a saloon, and showed each of them where
and how to mark a ballot, and then gave each two dollars, and took
them to the polling place, where there was a policeman on duty
especially to see that they got through all right.

And then, with respect to the present combat in Spain, the gratitude
which that country evinced to England after the French, by means of
English armies, had been expelled,-- gratitude evinced by discouraging
the trade of England on all occasions, and by offering up masses in
thanksgiving when the English heretics quitted the Spanish shores,--
ought now to induce England to exhaust and ruin herself, for the sake
of hunting Don Carlos out of his mountains.

And then it seemed to him that he could behold her through the
darkness of night, clad in the green flowered gown as he had first
seen her, and she bewailing her captivity and the long tarrying of the
deliverer as she went to and fro in a great chamber builded of marble
and done about with gold and bright colours: and or ever he slept, he
deemed this to be a vision of what then was, rather than a memory of
what had been; and it was sweet to his very soul.

And then he offered it the third time; hee put it the third time by,
and still as hee refus'd it, the rabblement howted, and clapp'd their
chopt hands, and threw vppe their sweatie Night-cappes, and vttered
such a deale of stinking breath, because Caesar refus'd the Crowne,
that it had (almost) choaked Caesar: for hee swoonded, and fell downe
at it: And for mine owne part, I durst not laugh, for feare of opening
my Lippes, and receyuing the bad Ayre Cassi.

And then he saw "the mother" as she was when young, wearing well-worn
dresses, which he remembered for such a long time that they seemed
inseparable from her; he recollected her movements, the different
tones of her voice, her habits, her predilections, her fits of anger,
the wrinkles on her face, the movements of her thin fingers, and all
her well-known attitudes, which she would never have again, and
clutching hold of the doctor, he began to moan and weep.

And then the girls heard that the anonymous 'Your Antagonist,' on
being cited to proclaim himself in public assembly of school-mates and
masters, had jumped on his legs and into the name of--one who was
previously thought by Miss Vincent's good girls incapable of the
'appalling wickedness,' as Mr. Cuper called it, of signing 'Your
Antagonist' to a Christian school- fellow, having the design to
provoke a breach of the law of the land and shed Christian blood.

And then we did begin to discourse of the young gentlemen captains,
which he was very free with me in speaking his mind of the unruliness
of them; and what a losse the King hath of his old men, and now of
this Hannam, of the Resolution, if he be dead, and that there is but
few old sober men in the fleete, and if these few of the Flags that
are so should die, he fears some other gentlemen captains will get in,
and then what a council we shall have, God knows.

And then Tom he talked along and talked along, and says, le's all
three slide out of here one of these nights and get an outfit, and go
for howling adventures amongst the Injuns, over in the Territory, for
a couple of weeks or two; and I says, all right, that suits me, but I
ain't got no money for to buy the outfit, and I reckon I couldn't get
none from home, because it's likely pap's been back before now, and
got it all away from Judge Thatcher and drunk it up.

And then to change the subject he dilated on that strange story of the
man who, an enormous number of years back in the date of the world's
history, carried his little son on his shoulders one night when the
winds were not so boisterous, though we were deeper in Winter, along
the identical road we traversed, between the gorsemounds, across the
heaths, with yonder remembered fir-tree clump in sight and the waste-
water visible to footfarers rounding under the firs.

And then Sir Launcelot brake the chains from his legs and off his
arms, and in the breaking he hurt his hands sore; and so Sir Launcelot
ran out at a postern, and there he met with the two knights that
chased Sir Bliant; and there he pulled down Sir Bertelot with his bare
hands from his horse, and therewithal he wrothe his sword out of his
hand; and so he leapt unto Sir Breuse, and gave him such a buffet upon
the head that he tumbled backward over his horse's croup.

And then, as she belonged to that witty 'Guermantes set'--in which
there survived something of the alert mentality, stripped of all
commonplace phrases and conventional sentiments, which dated from
Mérimée, and found its final expression in the plays of Meilhac and
Halévy--she adapted its formula so as to suit even her social
engagements, transposed it into the courtesy which was always
struggling to be positive and precise, to approximate itself to the
plain truth.

And then ounly percave the cuteness of the swate angel, for no sooner
did she obsarve that I was afther the squazing of her flipper, than
she up wid it in a jiffy, and put it away behind her back, jist as
much as to say, "Now thin, Sir Pathrick O'Grandison, there's a bitther
chance for ye, mavourneen, for it's not altogether the gentaal thing
to be afther the squazing of my flipper right full in the sight of
that little furrenner Frinchman, Mounseer Maiter-di-dauns.

And then, in the peroration that follows, he rouses the passions of
the judges by a glowing picture of Clodius's guilt, balanced by an
equally glowing one of Milo's virtues; he shows that Providence itself
had intervened to bring the sinful career of Clodius to an end, and
sanctified Milo by making him its instrument, and he concludes with a
brilliant avowal of love and admiration for his client, for whose
loss, if he is to be condemned, nothing can ever console him.

And then by a relation from them it was that Caesar learned the
admirable nature and virtue of this wood, which of itself produceth
neither fire, flame, nor coal, and would, therefore, in regard of that
rare quality of incombustibility, have been admitted into this rank
and degree of a true Pantagruelional plant; and that so much the
rather, for that Pantagruel directed that all the gates, doors,
angiports, windows, gutters, fretticed and embowed ceilings, cans,
(cants?

And then plucking off a glove he threw it down in the middle of the
hall, and the duke picked it up, saying, as he had said before, that
he accepted the challenge in the name of his vassal, and fixed six
days thence as the time, the courtyard of the castle as the place, and
for arms the customary ones of knights, lance and shield and full
armour, with all the other accessories, without trickery, guile, or
charms of any sort, and examined and passed by the judges of the
field.

And then up and home, and there dressed myself, and by appointment to
Deptford, to Sir G. Carteret's, between six and seven o'clock, where I
found him and my Lady almost ready, and by and by went over to the
ferry, and took coach and six horses nobly for Dagenhams, himself and
lady and their little daughter, Louisonne, and myself in the coach;
where, when we come, we were bravely entertained and spent the day
most pleasantly with the young ladies, and I so merry as never more.

And then A bridesmaid went,--and ere she came again A silence fell
upon the guests--a pause _135 Of expectation, as when beauty awes All
hearts with its approach, though unbeheld; Then wonder, and then fear
that wonder quelled;-- For whispers passed from mouth to ear which
drew The colour from the hearer's cheeks, and flew _140 Louder and
swifter round the company; And then Gherardi entered with an eye Of
ostentatious trouble, and a crowd Surrounded him, and some were
weeping loud.

And then I returned to my hawthorns, and stood before them as one
stands before those masterpieces of painting which, one imagines, one
will be better able to 'take in' when one has looked away, for a
moment, at something else; but in vain did I shape my fingers into a
frame, so as to have nothing but the hawthorns before my eyes; the
sentiment which they aroused in me remained obscure and vague,
struggling and failing to free itself, to float across and become one
with the flowers.

And then the king commanded Sir Kay to smite off the giant's head, and
to set it upon a truncheon of a spear, and bear it to Sir Howell, and
tell him that his enemy was slain; and after let this head be bound to
a barbican that all the people may see and behold it; and go ye two up
to the mountain, and fetch me my shield, my sword, and the club of
iron; and as for the treasure, take ye it, for ye shall find there
goods out of number; so I have the kirtle and the club I desire no
more.

And then the Statutes go on to enact --we cull from various chapters:
"The English cannot any more make peace or war with the Irish without
special warrant; it is made penal to the English to permit the Irish
to send their cattle to graze upon their land; the Irish could not be
presented by the English to any ecclesiastical benefice; they--the
Irish--could not be received into any monasteries or religious houses;
the English could not entertain any of their bards, or poets, or
shanachies, " etc.

And then Elise -- certainly that was her name told us, merrily, that
the brown spot on her waist was caused by her landlady knocking at the
door while she (the girl -- confound the English language) was heating
an iron over the gas jet, and she hid the iron under the bedclothes
until the coast was clear, and there was the piece of chewing gum
stuck to it when she began to iron the waist, and -- well, I wondered
bow in the world the chewing gum came to be there -- don't they ever
stop chewing it?

And then they took their horses and rode throughout a fair forest; and
then they came to a plain, and saw where were many pavilions and
tents, and a fair castle, and there was much smoke and great noise;
and when they came near the siege Sir Beaumains espied upon great
trees, as he rode, how there hung full goodly armed knights by the
neck, and their shields about their necks with their swords, and gilt
spurs upon their heels, and so there hung nigh a forty knights
shamefully with full rich arms.

And then his poverty, and his struggles, and the sufferings of his
wife, were remembered; and stories were told from mouth to mouth of
his industry in his profession, of his great zeal among the
brickmakers of Hoggle End, of acts of charity done by him which
startled the people of the district into admiration:--how he had
worked with his own hands for the sick poor to whom he could not give
relief in money, turning a woman's mangle for a couple of hours, and
carrying a boy's load along the lanes.

And then, as I read in the quietness of the night, broken only by the
muffled sound that came to me through the ventilators of stewards
talking and moving along the corridors, when nearly all the passengers
were in their cabins, some asleep in bed, others undressing, and
others only just down from the smoking-room and still discussing many
things, there came what seemed to me nothing more than an extra heave
of the engines and a more than usually obvious dancing motion of the
mattress on which I sat.

And then Sir Tristram gave her a ring, and she gave him another; and
therewith he departed from her, leaving her making great dole and
lamentation; and he straight went unto the court among all the barons,
and there he took his leave at most and least, and openly he said
among them all: Fair lords, now it is so that I must depart: if there
be any man here that I have offended unto, or that any man be with me
grieved, let complain him here afore me or that ever I depart, and I
shall amend it unto my power.

And then, so strong an element of hypocrisy is there in even the most
sincere of men, who cast off, while they are talking to anyone, the
opinion they actually hold of him and will express when he is no
longer there, my family joined with M. Vinteuil in deploring Swann's
marriage, invoking principles and conventions which (all the more
because they invoked them in common with him, as though we were all
thorough good fellows of the same sort) they appeared to suggest were
in no way infringed at Montjouvain.

And then upon a Monday in the morning, as they were departed from an
abbey, they came to a cross which departed two ways, and in that cross
were letters written that said thus: Now, ye knights errant, the which
goeth to seek knights adventurous, see here two ways; that one way
defendeth thee that thou ne go that way, for he shall not go out of
the way again but if he be a good man and a worthy knight; and if thou
go on the left hand, thou shalt not lightly there win prowess, for
thou shalt in this way be soon assayed.

And then it was that Cestius, despairing of obtaining room for a
public march, contrived how he might best run away; and when he had
selected four hundred of the most courageous of his soldiers, he
placed them at the strongest of their fortifications, and gave order,
that when they went up to the morning guard, they should erect their
ensigns, that the Jews might be made to believe that the entire army
was there still, while he himself took the rest of his forces with
him, and marched, without any noise, thirty furlongs.

And then, in a moment of illumination, like a man in a fever who
awakes from sleep and is conscious of the absurdity of the dream-
shapes among which his mind has been wandering without any clear
distinction between himself and them, Swann suddenly perceived how
foreign to his nature were the thoughts which he had been revolving in
his mind ever since he had heard at the Verdurins' that Odette had
left, how novel the heartache from which he was suffering, but of
which he was only now conscious, as though he had just woken up.

And then came a period of unusual irritation, to which we owe, in part
at least, Carlyle's railings against progress and his deplorable
criticism of England's great men and women,--poor little Browning,
animalcular De Quincey, rabbit-brained Newman, sawdustish Mill,
chattering George Eliot, ghastly-shrieky Shelley, once-enough Lamb,
stinted-scanty Wordsworth, poor thin fool Darwin and his book (_The
Origin of Species_, of which Carlyle confessed he never read a page)
which was wonderful as an example of the stupidity of mankind.

And then, he was such a wonderful speaker; at the Union Debating Club
he had been without a rival, and had, of course, been president; his
moral character,--a point on which so many geniuses were weak--was
absolutely irreproachable; foremost of all, however, among his many
great qualities, and perhaps more remarkable even than his genius was
what biographers have called "the simple-minded and child-like
earnestness of his character," an earnestness which might be perceived
by the solemnity with which he spoke even about trifles.

And then was Sir Bleoberis wroth, and gat a spear and rode against Sir
Tristram in great ire; and there Sir Tristram met with him, and smote
Sir Bleoberis from his horse So then the King with the Hundred Knights
was wroth, and he horsed Sir Bleoberis and Sir Gaheris again, and
there began a great medley; and ever Sir Tristram held them passing
short, and ever Sir Bleoberis was passing busy upon Sir Tristram; and
there came Sir Dinadan against Sir Tristram, and Sir Tristram gave him
such a buffet that he swooned <404>in his saddle.

And then when they had discussed all this, when the father had told
all to the child, she could not be less confiding than he had been;
and as John Bold's name was mentioned between them, she owned how well
she had learned to love him--'had loved him once,' she said, 'but she
would not, could not do so now--no, even had her troth been plighted
to him, she would have taken it back again--had she sworn to love him
as his wife, she would have discarded him, and not felt herself
forsworn, when he proved himself the enemy of her father.

And then with kinde embracements, tempting kisses, And with declining
head into his bosome Bid him shed teares, as being ouer-ioyed To see
her noble Lord restor'd to health, Who for this seuen yeares hath
esteemed him No better then a poore and loathsome begger: And if the
boy haue not a womans guift To raine a shower of commanded teares, An
Onion wil do well for such a shift, Which in a Napkin (being close
conuei'd) Shall in despight enforce a waterie eie: See this dispatch'd
with all the hast thou canst, Anon Ile giue thee more instructions.

And then, to have the footstool placed carefully by a too self-
confident personage,--not _any_ self-confident personage, but one in
particular, who suddenly looks humble and anxious, and lingers,
bending still, to ask if there is not some draught in that position
between the window and the fireplace, and if he may not be allowed to
move the work-table for her,--these things will summon a little of the
too ready, traitorous tenderness into a woman's eyes, compelled as she
is in her girlish time to learn her life-lessons in very trivial
language.

... And thenceforth shall so firm an amity 'Twixt thee and me be, that
neither Fortune, The monstrous phantom which pursues success, _180
That careful miser, that free prodigal, Who ever alternates, with
changeful hand, Evil and good, reproach and fame; nor Time, That
lodestar of the ages, to whose beam The winged years speed o'er the
intervals _185 Of their unequal revolutions; nor Heaven itself, whose
beautiful bright stars Rule and adorn the world, can ever make The
least division between thee and me, Since now I find a refuge in thy
favour.

And then Schliemann went on to outline some of the wastes of
competition: the losses of industrial warfare; the ceaseless worry and
friction; the vices--such as drink, for instance, the use of which had
nearly doubled in twenty years, as a consequence of the
intensification of the economic struggle; the idle and unproductive
members of the community, the frivolous rich and the pauperized poor;
the law and the whole machinery of repression; the wastes of social
ostentation, the milliners and tailors, the hairdressers, dancing
masters, chefs and lackeys.

And then, number one, you came up against the man in possession and
had to produce your credentials like the claimant in the Tichborne
case, Roger Charles Tichborne, BELLA was the boat's name to the best
of his recollection he, the heir, went down in as the evidence went to
show and there was a tattoo mark too in Indian ink, lord Bellew was
it, as he might very easily have picked up the details from some pal
on board ship and then, when got up to tally with the description
given, introduce himself with: EXCUSE ME, MY NAME IS SO AND SO or some
such commonplace remark.

And thence heard at the Council-board the City, by their single
counsel Symson, and the company of Strangers Merchants, a debate the
business of water-baylage; a tax demanded upon all goods, by the City,
imported and exported: which these Merchants oppose, and demanding
leave to try the justice of the City's demand by a Quo Warranto, which
the City opposed, the Merchants did quite lay the City on their backs
with great triumph, the City's cause being apparently too weak: but
here I observed Mr. Gold, the merchant, to speak very well, and very
sharply, against the City.

And then Sir Percivale laid him down by her naked; and by adventure
and grace he saw his sword lie on the ground naked, in whose pommel
was a red cross and the sign of the crucifix therein, and bethought
him on his knighthood and his promise made to-forehand unto the good
man; then he made a sign of the cross in his forehead, and therewith
the pavilion turned up-so- down, and then it changed unto a smoke, and
a black cloud, and then he was adread and cried aloud: CHAPTER X How
Sir Percivale for penance rove himself through the thigh; and how she
was known for the devil.

And then when paper and ink was brought, then Gawaine was set up
weakly by King Arthur, for he was shriven a little to-fore; and then
he wrote thus, as the French book maketh mention: Unto Sir Launcelot,
flower of all noble knights that ever I heard of or saw by my days, I,
Sir Gawaine, King Lot's son of Orkney, sister's son unto the noble
King Arthur, send thee greeting, and let thee have knowledge that the
tenth day of May I was smitten upon the old wound that thou gavest me
afore the city of Benwick, and through the same wound that thou gavest
me I am come to my death-day.

And then, with small adventure met, Sir Bors Rode to the lonest tract
of all the realm, And found a people there among their crags, Our race
and blood, a remnant that were left Paynim amid their circles, and the
stones They pitch up straight to heaven: and their wise men Were
strong in that old magic which can trace The wandering of the stars,
and scoffed at him And this high Quest as at a simple thing: Told him
he followed--almost Arthur's words-- A mocking fire: "what other fire
than he, Whereby the blood beats, and the blossom blows, And the sea
rolls, and all the world is warmed?

And then she wished Cesario was the duke; and perceiving the fast hold
he had taken on her affections, she blamed herself for her sudden
love: but the gentle blame which people lay upon their own faults has
no deep root; and presently the noble lady Olivia so far forgot the
inequality between her fortunes and those of this seeming page, as
well as the maidenly reserve which is the chief ornament of a lady's
character, that she resolved to court the love of young Cesario, and
sent a servant after him with a diamond ring, under the presence that
he had left it with her as a present from Orsino.

And then, next, after we have, perhaps, half broken their hearts, a
wife is looked out for: convenience, or birth, or fortune, are the
first motives, affection the last (if it is at all consulted): and two
people thus educated, thus trained up, in a course of unnatural
ingratitude, and who have been headstrong torments to every one who
has had a share in their education, as well as to those to whom they
owe their being, are brought together; and what can be expected, but
that they should pursue, and carry on, the same comfortable conduct in
matrimony, and join most heartily to plague one another?

And then, inspiring me with that rapture which we feel on seeing a
work by our favourite painter quite different from any of those that
we already know, or, better still, when some one has taken us and set
us down in front of a picture of which we have hitherto seen no more
than a pencilled sketch, or when a piece of music which we have heard
played over on the piano bursts out again in our ears with all the
splendour and fullness of an orchestra, my grandfather called me to
him, and, pointing to the hedge of Tansonville, said: "You are fond of
hawthorns; just look at this pink one; isn't it pretty?

And then he pointed to a company, 'Midst whom I quickly recognized the
heirs Of Caesar's crime, from him to Constantine; The anarch chiefs,
whose force and murderous snares _285 Had founded many a sceptre-
bearing line, And spread the plague of gold and blood abroad: And
Gregory and John, and men divine, Who rose like shadows between man
and God; Till that eclipse, still hanging over heaven, _290 Was
worshipped by the world o'er which they strode, For the true sun it
quenched--'Their power was given But to destroy,' replied the
leader:--'I Am one of those who have created, even 'If it be but a
world of agony.

And then without waiting for any answer she left the window, though
not before she saw me take the letter and the handkerchief, and I had
by signs let her know that I would do as she bade me; and so, seeing
myself so well paid for the trouble I would have in bringing it to
you, and knowing by the address that it was to you it was sent (for,
senor, I know you very well), and also unable to resist that beautiful
lady's tears, I resolved to trust no one else, but to come myself and
give it to you, and in sixteen hours from the time when it was given
me I have made the journey, which, as you know, is eighteen leagues.

And then we all up to the Duke of York, and there did our usual
business, and so I with J. Minnes home, and there finding my wife gone
to my aunt Wight's, to see her the first time after her coming to
town, and indeed the first time, I think, these two years (we having
been great strangers one to the other for a great while), I to them;
and there mighty kindly used, and had a barrel of oysters, and so to
look up and down their house, they having hung a room since I was
there, but with hangings not fit to be seen with mine, which I find
all come home to-night, and here staying an hour or two we home, and
there to supper and to bed.

And then when his spear was broken King Arthur did passingly well; and
so therewithal came in Sir Gawaine and Sir Gaheris, Sir Agravaine and
Sir Mordred, and there everych of them smote down a knight, and Sir
Gawaine smote down four knights; and then there began a strong medley,
for then there came in the knights of Launcelot's blood, and Sir
Gareth and Sir Palomides with them, and many knights of the Table
Round, and they began to hold the four kings and the mighty duke so
hard that they were discomfit; but this Duke Galahad, the haut prince,
was a noble knight, and by his mighty prowess of arms he held the
knights of the Table Round strait enough.

And then, like him, you must, by a sedulous lecture, and frequent
meditation, break the bone, and suck out the marrow,--that is, my
allegorical sense, or the things I to myself propose to be signified
by these Pythagorical symbols, with assured hope, that in so doing you
will at last attain to be both well-advised and valiant by the reading
of them: for in the perusal of this treatise you shall find another
kind of taste, and a doctrine of a more profound and abstruse
consideration, which will disclose unto you the most glorious
sacraments and dreadful mysteries, as well in what concerneth your
religion, as matters of the public state, and life economical.

'And thence I dropt into a lowly vale, Low as the hill was high, and
where the vale Was lowest, found a chapel, and thereby A holy hermit
in a hermitage, To whom I told my phantoms, and he said: '"O son, thou
hast not true humility, The highest virtue, mother of them all; For
when the Lord of all things made Himself Naked of glory for His mortal
change, 'Take thou my robe,' she said, 'for all is thine,' And all her
form shone forth with sudden light So that the angels were amazed, and
she Followed Him down, and like a flying star Led on the gray-haired
wisdom of the east; But her thou hast not known: for what is this Thou
thoughtest of thy prowess and thy sins?

And then there was a return quintuplication, in choice Latin, by the
classic Dale, and then there was a colloquy on the quintuplication,
and everything that had been charged, and truly charged, by the
English; was now denied by the King's commissioners; and Champagny--
more gouty and more irascible than ever--"chopped in" at every word
spoken by King's envoys or Queen's, contradicted everybody, repudiated
everything said or done by Andrew de Loo, or any of the other secret
negotiators during the past year, declared that there never had been a
general cessation of arms promised, and that, at any rate, times were
now changed, and such an armistice was inadmissible!

And then, I said, we must try them with enchantments that is the third
sort of test--and see what will be their behaviour: like those who
take colts amid noise and tumult to see if they are of a timid nature,
so must we take our youth amid terrors of some kind, and again pass
them into pleasures, and prove them more thoroughly than gold is
proved in the furnace, that we may discover whether they are armed
against all enchantments, and of a noble bearing always, good
guardians of themselves and of the music which they have learned, and
retaining under all circumstances a rhythmical and harmonious nature,
such as will be most serviceable to the individual and to the State.

And then I found my Lord Sandwich, his title under his armes is, "The
most noble and mighty Lord, Edward, Earl of Sandwich, &c." Sir Edward
Walker afterwards coming in, in discourse did say that there was none
of the families of princes in Christendom that do derive themselves so
high as Julius Caesar, nor so far by 1000 years, that can directly
prove their rise; only some in Germany do derive themselves from the
patrician familys of Rome, but that uncertainly; and, among other
things, did much inveigh against the writing of romances, that 500
years hence being wrote of matters in general, true as the romance of
Cleopatra, the world will not know which is the true and which the
false.

And then standing up in the boat he began in a loud voice to hurl
threats at the millers, exclaiming, "Ill-conditioned and worse-
counselled rabble, restore to liberty and freedom the person ye hold
in durance in this your fortress or prison, high or low or of whatever
rank or quality he be, for I am Don Quixote of La Mancha, otherwise
called the Knight of the Lions, for whom, by the disposition of heaven
above, it is reserved to give a happy issue to this adventure;" and so
saying he drew his sword and began making passes in the air at the
millers, who, hearing but not understanding all this nonsense, strove
to stop the boat, which was now getting into the rushing channel of
the wheels.

And then consider the great historical fact that, for three centuries,
this book has been woven into the life of all that is best and noblest
in English history; that it has become the national epic of Britain,
and is as familiar to noble and simple, from John-o'-Groat's House to
Land's End, as Dante and Tasso once were to the Italians; that it is
written in the noblest and purest English, and abounds in exquisite
beauties of mere literary form; and, finally, that it forbids the
veriest hind who never left his village to be ignorant of the
existence of other countries and other civilisations, and of a great
past, stretching back to the furthest limits of the oldest nations in
the world.

And then, turning to the housekeeper, he said, "Mistress housekeeper
may just as well give over saying the prayer of Santa Apollonia, for I
know it is the positive determination of the spheres that Senor Don
Quixote shall proceed to put into execution his new and lofty designs;
and I should lay a heavy burden on my conscience did I not urge and
persuade this knight not to keep the might of his strong arm and the
virtue of his valiant spirit any longer curbed and checked, for by his
inactivity he is defrauding the world of the redress of wrongs, of the
protection of orphans, of the honour of virgins, of the aid of widows,
and of the support of wives, and other matters of this kind
appertaining, belonging, proper and peculiar to the order of knight-
errantry.

And then, what do you say to the good Cirongilio of Thrace, that was
so stout and bold; as may be seen in the book, where it is related
that as he was sailing along a river there came up out of the midst of
the water against him a fiery serpent, and he, as soon as he saw it,
flung himself upon it and got astride of its scaly shoulders, and
squeezed its throat with both hands with such force that the serpent,
finding he was throttling it, had nothing for it but to let itself
sink to the bottom of the river, carrying with it the knight who would
not let go his hold; and when they got down there he found himself
among palaces and gardens so pretty that it was a wonder to see; and
then the serpent changed itself into an old ancient man, who told him
such things as were never heard.

And then when I went up to bed she come up with me and fetched her
candle, and tucked me in, and mothered me so good I felt mean, and
like I couldn't look her in the face; and she set down on the bed and
talked with me a long time, and said what a splendid boy Sid was, and
didn't seem to want to ever stop talking about him; and kept asking me
every now and then if I reckoned he could a got lost, or hurt, or
maybe drownded, and might be laying at this minute somewheres
suffering or dead, and she not by him to help him, and so the tears
would drip down silent, and I would tell her that Sid was all right,
and would be home in the morning, sure; and she would squeeze my hand,
or maybe kiss me, and tell me to say it again, and keep on saying it,
because it done her good, and she was in so much trouble.

And then, suddenly, he asked himself whether that was not precisely
what was implied by 'keeping' a woman (as if, in fact, that idea of
'keeping' could be derived from elements not at all mysterious nor
perverse, but belonging to the intimate routine of his daily life,
such as that thousand-franc note, a familiar and domestic object, torn
in places and mended with gummed paper, which his valet, after paying
the household accounts and the rent, had locked up hi a drawer in the
old writing-desk whence he had extracted it to send it, with four
others, to Odette) and whether it was not possible to apply to Odette,
since he had known her (for he never imagined for a moment that she
could ever have taken a penny from anyone else, before), that title,
which he had believed so wholly inapplicable to her, of 'kept' woman.

And then, without waiting for an answer, he described to her, as he
best could, the accusation that was made about Hiram's will; the
claims which the old men put forward; what he considered the strength
and what the weakness of his own position; the course which Bold had
taken, and that which he presumed he was about to take; and then by
degrees, without further question, he presumed on the fact of
Eleanor's love, and spoke of that love as a feeling which he could in
no way disapprove: he apologised for Bold, excused what he was doing;
nay, praised him for his energy and intentions; made much of his good
qualities, and harped on none of his foibles; then, reminding his
daughter how late it was, and comforting her with much assurance which
he hardly felt himself, he sent her to her room, with flowing eyes and
a full heart.

And then, as I continue to trace the outward course of these
impressions from their close-packed intimate source in my
consciousness, and before I come to the horizon of reality which
envelops them, I discover pleasures of another kind, those of being
comfortably seated, of tasting the good scent on the air, of not being
disturbed by any visitor; and, when an hour chimed from the steeple of
Saint-Hilaire, of watching what was already spent of the afternoon
fall drop by drop until I heard the last stroke which enabled me to
add up the total sum, after which the silence that followed seemed to
herald the beginning, in the blue sky above me, of that long part of
the day still allowed me for reading, until the good dinner which
Françoise was even now preparing should come to strengthen and refresh
me after the strenuous pursuit of its hero through the pages of my
book.

And then he says, which I wonder at, that I should not in all this
time see, that Moorefields have houses two stories high in them, and
paved streets, the City having let leases for seven years, which he do
conclude will be very much to the hindering the building of the City;
but it was considered that the streets cannot be passable in London
till a whole street be built; and several that had got ground of the
City for charity, to build sheds on, had got the trick presently to
sell that for L60, which did not cost them L20 to put up; and so the
City, being very poor in stock, thought it as good to do it
themselves, and therefore let leases for seven years of the ground in
Moorefields; and a good deal of this money, thus advanced, hath been
employed for the enabling them to find some money for Commissioner
Taylor, and Sir W. Batten, towards the charge of "The Loyall London,"
or else, it is feared, it had never been paid.

And then again in a mighty bustle he bandied it, slubbered it, hacked
it, whittled it, wayed it, darted it, hurled it, staggered it, reeled
it, swinged it, brangled it, tottered it, lifted it, heaved it,
transformed it, transfigured it, transposed it, transplaced it, reared
it, raised it, hoised it, washed it, dighted it, cleansed it, rinsed
it, nailed it, settled it, fastened it, shackled it, fettered it,
levelled it, blocked it, tugged it, tewed it, carried it, bedashed it,
bewrayed it, parched it, mounted it, broached it, nicked it, notched
it, bespattered it, decked it, adorned it, trimmed it, garnished it,
gauged it, furnished it, bored it, pierced it, trapped it, rumbled it,
slid it down the hill, and precipitated it from the very height of the
Cranie; then from the foot to the top (like another Sisyphus with his
stone) bore it up again, and every way so banged it and belaboured it
that it was ten thousand to one he had not struck the bottom of it
out.

And then rose and called W. Hewer, and he and I, with pails and a
sieve, did lock ourselves into the garden, and there gather all the
earth about the place into pails, and then sift those pails in one of
the summer-houses, just as they do for dyamonds in other parts of the
world; and there, to our great content, did with much trouble by nine
o'clock (and by the time we emptied several pails and could not find
one), we did make the last night's forty-five up seventy-nine: so that
we are come to about twenty or thirty of what I think the true number
should be; and perhaps within less; and of them I may reasonably think
that Mr. Gibson might lose some: so that I am pretty well satisfied
that my loss is not great, and do bless God that it is so well, [About
the year 1842, in removing the foundation of an old wall, adjoining a
mansion at Brampton, always considered the quondam residence of the
Pepys family, an iron pot, full of silver coins, was discovered, and
taken to the Earl of Sandwich, the owner of the house, in whose
possession they still remain.

And then Queen Anne, that's dead, gae the chiefs bits o' pensions, sae
they had wherewith to support their gillies and caterans that work nae
wark, as I said afore; and they lay by quiet eneugh, saying some
spreagherie on the Lowlands, whilk is their use and wont, and some
cutting o' thrapples amang themsells, that nae civilised body kens or
cares onything anent.--Weel, but there's a new warld come up wi' this
King George (I say, God bless him, for ane)--there's neither like to
be siller nor pensions gaun amang them; they haena the means o'
mainteening the clans that eat them up, as ye may guess frae what I
said before; their credit's gane in the Lowlands; and a man that can
whistle ye up a thousand or feifteen hundred linking lads to do his
will, wad hardly get fifty punds on his band at the Cross o' Glasgow--
This canna stand lang-- there will be an outbreak for the Stuarts--
there will be an outbreak-- they will come down on the low country
like a flood, as they did in the waefu' wars o' Montrose, and that
will be seen and heard tell o' ere a twalmonth gangs round.

And then there was a presentation to the Queen, and to the Queen-
Mother, when Leoninus was more prolix than before, and Catharine even
more affectionate than her son; and there were consultations with
Chiverny and Villeroy, and Brulart and Pruneaux, and great banquets at
the royal expense, and bales of protocols, and drafts of articles, and
conditions and programmes and apostilles by the hundred weight, and at
last articles of annexation were presented by the envoys, and Pruneaux
looked at and pronounced them "too raw and imperative," and the envoys
took them home again, and dressed them and cooked them till there was
no substance left in them; for whereas the envoys originally offered
the crown of their country to France, on condition that no religion
but the reformed religion should be tolerated there, no appointments
made but by the States, and no security offered for advances to be
made by the Christian King, save the hearts and oaths of his new
subjects--so they now ended by proposing the sovereignty
unconditionally, almost abjectly; and, after the expiration of nearly
three months, even these terms were absolutely refused, and the
deputies were graciously permitted to go home as they came.

And then he goes on to say: The cousin was amazed as well at Sancho's
boldness as at the patience of his master, and concluded that the good
temper the latter displayed arose from the happiness he felt at having
seen his lady Dulcinea, even enchanted as she was; because otherwise
the words and language Sancho had addressed to him deserved a
thrashing; for indeed he seemed to him to have been rather impudent to
his master, to whom he now observed, "I, Senor Don Quixote of La
Mancha, look upon the time I have spent in travelling with your
worship as very well employed, for I have gained four things in the
course of it; the first is that I have made your acquaintance, which I
consider great good fortune; the second, that I have learned what the
cave of Montesinos contains, together with the transformations of
Guadiana and of the lakes of Ruidera; which will be of use to me for
the Spanish Ovid that I have in hand; the third, to have discovered
the antiquity of cards, that they were in use at least in the time of
Charlemagne, as may be inferred from the words you say Durandarte
uttered when, at the end of that long spell while Montesinos was
talking to him, he woke up and said, 'Patience and shuffle.

And then, being still deeply moved by his dream, he would thank heaven
for those special circumstances which made him independent, thanks to
which he could remain in Odette's vicinity, and could even succeed in
making her allow him to see her sometimes; and, counting over the list
of his advantages: his social position--his fortune, from which she
stood too often in need of assistance not to shrink from the prospect
of a definite rupture (having even, so people said, an ulterior plan
of getting him to marry her)--his friendship with M. de Charlus,
which, it must be confessed, had never won him any very great favour
from Odette, but which gave him the pleasant feeling that she was
always hearing complimentary things said about him by this common
friend for whom she had so great an esteem--and even his own
intelligence, the whole of which he employed in weaving, every day, a
fresh plot which would make his presence, if not agreeable, at any
rate necessary to Odette --he thought of what might have happened to
him if all these advantages had been lacking, he thought that, if he
had been, like so many other men, poor and humble, without resources,
forced to undertake any task that might be offered to him, or tied
down by parents or by a wife, he might have been obliged to part from
Odette, that that dream, the terror of which was still so recent,
might well have been true; and he said to himself: "People don't know
when they are happy.

And then, as soon as he had left the house, not without returning to
kiss her once again, because he had forgotten to take away with him,
in memory, some detail of her fragrance or of her features, while he
drove home in his victoria, blessing the name of Odette who allowed
him to pay her these daily visits, which, although they could not, he
felt, bring any great happiness to her, still, by keeping him immune
from the fever of jealousy--by removing from him every possibility of
a fresh outbreak of the heart-sickness which had manifested itself in
him that evening, when he had failed to find her at the Verdurins'--
might help him to arrive, without any recurrence of those crises, of
which the first had been so distressing that it must also be the last,
at the termination of this strange series of hours in his life, hours
almost enchanted, in the same manner as these other, following hours,
in which he drove through a deserted Paris by the light of the moon:
noticing as he drove home that the satellite had now changed its
position, relatively to his own, and was almost touching the horizon;
feeling that his love, also, was obedient to these immutable laws of
nature, he asked himself whether this period, upon which he had
entered, was to last much longer, whether presently his mind's eye
would cease to behold that dear countenance, save as occupying a
distant and diminished position, and on the verge of ceasing to shed
on him the radiance of its charm.
