Neither Ned nor Obed meant them any harm, and they would have liked to exchange a few words with human beings. "They think of course that we're brigands," said Obed. "It's what anybody would take us for. Evil looks corrupt good intentions." The next day Obed was lucky enough to shoot an antelope, and they had fresh food.

But the moment was not propitious to argument, and the two Italians landed. This was within half an hour after the struggle had ceased; and our intentions are to advance the time to the moment mentioned in the opening of this chapter. We must give here, however, a rapid sketch of the proceedings that narrowed down the view to that we intend shortly to lay before the reader.

England was wild with joy at its deliverance, but the household at Hedingham was plunged into deep sorrow. Weeks passed and then Lionel received a letter from Francis Vere saying that Parma's army was advancing into Holland, and that as active work was at hand he had best, if his intentions remained unchanged, join him without delay.

Sertorius, perceiving their intentions, smiled, and said, he would now teach Sylla's scholar, for so he called Pompey in derision, that it was the part of a general to look as well behind him as before him, and at the same time showed them six thousand soldiers, whom he had left in his former camp, from whence he marched out to take the hill, where if Pompey should assault him, they might fall upon his rear.

Certainly the ruling statesmen of Germany must have been aware of the implications of their doctrine of world-power.

Trade and commerce, if they were not made of india-rubber, would never manage to bounce over obstacles which legislators are continually putting in their way; and if one were to judge these men wholly by the effects of their actions and not partly by their intentions, they would deserve to be classed and punished with those mischievious persons who put obstructions on the railroads.
