"Fiat pax in virtute tua: et abundantia in turribus tuis;" "Propter fratres meos et proximos meos:" came back the answer, "loquebar pacem de te." And once more: "Propter domum Domini Dei nostri: quaesivi bona tibi." Then there was a soft clattering roar as the monks rose to their feet, and in double volume from the bent heads sounded out the Gloria Patri.
Worse even than opthalmia neonatorum was plain speaking to a guest! "Mrs. Abbott, you humiliate me!" Then I spoke harshly, seeing that I would actually have to shock her. "I assure you, Mrs. Tuis, that if you don't feel that way about me, it's simply because you don't know the truth. It is not possible that you would consider me a proper person to visit Sylvia.
Why, with their souls full of these ideas their faces would soon be as hard oh, you horrify me!" "My daughter's face is not hard," I said. "And I taught her. Stop and think, Mrs. Tuis ten thousand blind children every year! A hundred thousand women under the surgeon's knife! Millions of women going to pieces with slowly creeping diseases of which they never hear the names!
I beg you again and again that he may not find himself mistaken. He had been consul in B.C. 54, and was now proconsul in Cilicia, in which government Cicero was to succeed him. But the meaning of the elaborate and dull joke or compliment is far from clear, especially the phrase si forte de tuis sumpsero.
I came here to help her in this crisis, and I came to-day to meet you because it was necessary for someone to talk to you frankly about the situation. You will understand, I presume, that Mrs. Tuis is not not very well informed about the matters in question." His gaze was fixed intently upon me, but he said not a word.
Perrin thinks she should not, and that he has been using his influence to persuade me to agree with him; so also has Mrs. Tuis " Then I saw the first trace of uncertainty in his eyes. "There was a critical time," I explained, "when Mrs. Tuis had to be told. You may be sure, however, that no hint of the truth will be given by her.
Yet the spirits recorded both these things on their tablets, as though both were worthy of their remembrance. He did not know that he kept repeating two sentences over and over to himself: "'Quoniam ipse liberavit me de laqueo venantium et a verbo aspero. Quoniam angelis suis mandavit de te: ut custodiant te in omnibus viis tuis."
Eggs, too, are plentiful enough, whenever any one takes the trouble to hunt up some nests. As to wild game of any sort, we get little enough of that; for we cannot spare time to go after it. Sometimes we may shoot some of the splendid wild pigeons, some kakas, parrots, tuis, wild duck, teal, or the acclimatized pheasants. Wild pig is nauseous eating, so that is not sought after.
I say, let us cry this from the housetops, until every woman knows and until every man knows that she knows, and that unless he can prove that he is clean he will lose her! That is the remedy, Mrs. Tuis!" Poor dear lady! I got up and went away, leaving her there, with clenched hands and trembling lips.
But I ventured to add the hint that Mr. van Tuiver would hardly wish expense to be considered in such an emergency; and in the end, I persuaded the doctor not merely to telegraph for the great surgeon, but to ask a hospital in Atlanta to send the nearest eye-specialist by the first train.
