Presently I came to a bridge bestriding the stream, which a man told me was called Pont Aber Glas Lyn, or the bridge of the debouchement of the grey lake. I soon emerged from the pass, and after proceeding some way stopped again to admire the scenery.
When I told her, and added that I must catch an early train back to Aber, she merely said, "I will walk to the station with you, if I may." And so at ten o'clock after I had bidden farewell to Uncle Melchior, who wore the air of one interrupted in a long sum of compound addition we set forth. I knew the child had something on her mind, and waited.
"I should not think of putting you to any such trouble." "Also, if you want to reach Aber, there is no train for the next two hours. You must come in and rest." "But really " "I am mistress here. I am Wilhelmina Van der Knoope." Being by this time on my feet again, I bowed and introduced myself by name. She nodded.
And then we'd go over to what was left of them, and it would be finished." He stopped abruptly as the vision grew clearer. "Aber," he began excitedly. The old Baron lifted a hand and quelled him. "The machine you saw this morning, which you tested, will do all this?" he insisted. Von Wetten was staring at the Baron. Upon the question he let his monocle fall and seemed to consider.
Indeed the admiring throng rushed to the stage to shower him with admiration. "Das war aber zu schon!" sighed a dowager near me. "Ja, ja, wunderbar. Ein Berliner Professor!" I investigated Professor Sombart and learned from authority which is beyond question that he was an out and out Government agent foisted on to the University of Berlin against the wishes of its faculty.
What, however, has more than anything else contributed to the celebrity of the hill is the circumstance of its giving birth to three rivers, the first of which, the Severn, is the principal stream in Britain; the second, the Wye, the most lovely river, probably, which the world can boast of; and the third, the Rheidol, entitled to high honour from its boldness and impetuosity, and the remarkable banks between which it flows in its very short course, for there are scarcely twenty miles between the ffynnon or source of the Rheidol and the aber or place where it disembogues itself into the sea.
"Oh, yes, I know. I didn't know there was an opera about it, though. Do people sing this now?" "ABER JA! What else? You like to try? See." He drew her from the stool and sat down at the piano. Turning over the leaves to the third act, he handed the score to Thea.
"Barbarossa disabled and sinking," he cried. "Gott im Himmel! Der alte Barbarossa! Aber welch ein braver krieger!" He walked about the swinging cabin, and for a time he was wholly German. Then he became English again. "Think of it, Smallways! The old ship we kept so clean and tidy! All smashed about, and the iron flying about in fragments, and the chaps one knew Gott! flying about too!
After lunch, and after Kloster had said some more regrettable things, being much moved, it appeared, by the palace facing him and by some personal recollections he had of the particular Hohenzollern it contained, while I lay looking up along the smooth beech-trunks to their bright leaves glancing against the wonderful blue of the sky oh it was so lovely, little mother! and Frau Kloster sometimes said Aber Adolf, and occasionally announced that she had slain another mosquito, we motored on towards Brandenburg, along the chain of lakes formed by the Havel.
They passed all the other pilgrims bound the same way stout square Germans with their coats slung through straps, who trailed behind them heavy alpenstocks, carried greenish bags, and marched stolidly at a pace that never varied, growling, as Anna and the boy went by: "Aber eilen ist nichts!" But those two could not go fast enough to keep pace with their spirits.
