I must either sign whatever was given to sign, or be sent to a madhouse. I received orders to accompany M. Pistrich to Counsellor Ziegler; thither I went, and the next day was obliged to sign, in their presence, the following conditions: First That I acknowledged the will of Trenck to be valid. Secondly That I renounced all claim to the Sclavonian estates, relying alone on her Majesty's favour.

Spatt spread a glow triumphant, for Musa now positively had played for the first time in England in her drawing-room, and she foresaw hundreds of occasions on which she could refer to the matter with a fitting air of casualness. The glow triumphant, however, paled somewhat as she felt upon herself the eye of Mr. Ziegler. "Where is Siegfried, Alroy?" she demanded, after having thanked Musa.

Spatt had a martyrised expression. In her heart she felt a sick trembling of her religious belief that Elektra was the greatest opera ever composed. For Audrey had the prestige of Paris and of the automobile. Mrs. Spatt, however, said not a word. Mr. Ziegler, on the other hand, after shuffling some seconds for utterance, ejaculated with sublime anger: "Vulgar!"

This first school was succeeded by a second of surpassing extravagance. Hoffman von Hoffmannswaldau, A.D. 1679, the founder of the second Silesian school, was a caricature of Opitz, Lohenstein of Gryphius, Besser of Flemming, Talander and Ziegler of Zesen, and even Francisci was outdone by that most intolerable of romancers, Happel.

Louise von Ziegler, known in the Darmstadt circle as Lila, whom Merck admired and, according to Caroline Flaschsland, “almost compared with Yorick’s Maria,” was so sentimental that she had her grave made in her garden, evidently for purposes of contemplation, and she led a lamb about which ate and drank with her. Upon the death of this animal, “a

But now that I am in your hermitage, there is this Matter of Ziegler, concerning which I would like the benefit of your professional advice." "Hum! Ha! Got yourself mixed up with a woman and want me to pull you out.

Do you know, I never knew that proposals of marriage were made like that!" "I have not told you one thing," said Musa. "I am going to play in Germany, instead of further concerts in Paris. It is arranged." "Not in Germany," she pleaded, thinking of Ziegler. "Yes, in Germany," said Musa masterfully. "I have a reputation to make. It is the agent who has suggested it." "But the concerts in London?"

Don't let me detain you." Jeroloman sat down. "What case are you referring to?" "The Matter of Ziegler." Uncertainly Jeroloman's steel-blue eyes shifted. "It seems to me I read the syllabus." "Then your powers of concealment are admirable." "But just what does it hold?" "Can it be that you don't remember? "But," Jeroloman began and paused. "But " He paused again. Comfortably Dunwoodie helped him.

"I want your views on that case, 'The Matter of Ziegler." "Hum! Ha! Got yourself in a mess. Yaas. I remember. Been served yet? Give me the facts." One after another, Jones produced them. During their recital, Dunwoodie twirled his thumbs. At their conclusion, he expressed himself with entire freedom.

This was printed at Nuremberg in 1507, and again in 1518; but of the original editions I have not been able to see a copy. The attacks continued. In 1512 another ponderous volume appeared, composed by Jacob Ziegler, the well-known Bavarian scientist, to demonstrate the falsity of their opinions.
