The impression upon Tynn's mind was that Frederick Massingbird was coming there and then, to invade Verner's Pride: it appeared to Tynn to be his duty to impart what he had heard and seen at once to Mr. Verner. Circumstances favoured him. Lionel had been talking with Mr. Gordon at the far end of the terrace, but the latter was called to from the drawing-room windows and departed in answer to it.
However, at that moment a servant came in to say that M. Duthil was downstairs and wished to speak to the Baron in the smoking-room.

Therefore, if the god thinks he must eat, that is to say, he must of necessity have some means of supplying the force with which to think.
