But we had not proceeded far before Mr. Grey returned and, taking his stand at the foot of the bed, remarked, after a moment's gloomy contemplation of his daughter's face: "You are better today, the doctor says, I have just been telephoning to him.
We must not be too nice in the choice of our agents. Non eget Mauri jaculis, no African bayonets wanted, was well enough while we did not yet know the might of that desperate giant we had to deal with; but Tros, Tyriusve, white or black, is the safer motto now; for a good soldier, like a good horse, cannot be of a bad color.

Whether they went to Rome with or without the consent of the Pontiff, as soon as the fall of the Temporal Power was proclaimed, the complete liberty of the Church would be proclaimed also.
