How ken ye?" Noll hardly knew what answer to make to this vehement question, and finally made none at all, but asked, "Are any of your family ill, Dirk?" "Ill? Sick, ye mean? O Lord! yes, yes, and dyin'!" Noll started. Some one ill and dying on this dreary, wretched Rock! and no doctor to give aid.
"I understand not your insolence," said Nigel, "but I forgive it, because you labour under some strange delusion. In so far as I can comprehend your vehement charge, it is entirely undeserved on my part. You seem to impute to me the seduction of your wife I trust she is innocent. For me, at least, she is as innocent as an angel in bliss.

Such is Wusterhausen, as delineated by a vehement Princess, some years hence, who becomes at last intelligible, by study and the aid of our Silesian Tourist. His Majesty, early always as the swallows, hunts, I should suppose, in the morning; dines and sleeps, we may perceive, till towards three, or later. Not much of the Picturesque in this autumnal life of our little Boy.
