Bess Bangem said to the Professor, as they went up the bank together, "I had a great mind to count you in with my fish, to beat father; but I caught you long ago, so it would not have been fair." As Moscow's splendors trench on narrow lanes, The wonder, brimming every traveller's eyes, To disappointment's sudden darkness wanes At finding meanness near such grandeur lies.

Had there been no other issue involved, there can be little doubt that Moscow's advances would have been repelled and Bolshevist agents given short shrift. Unfortunately, the Eastern nationalists feel themselves between the Bolshevist devil and the Western imperialist deep sea.

Myself, as your imperial envoy, made A treaty to endure for twenty years; I raised this right hand, that you see, aloft In solemn pledge, within the Kremlin's walls; And fairly hath the Czar maintained his word. What is sworn faith? what compacts, treaties, when A solemn Diet tramples on them all? DEMETRIUS. Prince Leo Sapieha! You concluded A bond of peace, you say, with Moscow's Czar?

And lest their people learn too much of other ways of life, the communists have walled off their world, deliberately and uniformly, from the rest of human society.

RAZIN. Why, e'en this pillar here bears Moscow's arms; Here terminates the empire of the Poles. DEMETRIUS. Is that the Dnieper, rolls its quiet stream Along these meadows? ODOWALSKY. That, sire, is the Desna; See, yonder rise the towers of Tschernizow! RAZIN. Yon gleam you see upon the far horizon Is from the roofs of Sewerisch Novogrod. DEMETRIUS. What a rich prospect! What fair meadow lands!

Behold, our Czar is quite absorbed in thought. DEMETRIUS. On these fair meads dwell peace, unbroken peace, And with war's terrible array I come To scatter havoc, like a listed foe! ODOWALSKY. Hereafter 'twill be time to think of that. DEMETRIUS. Thou feelest as a Pole, I am Moscow's son.
