I must pack up my small possessions, and for your sake I will say a few words of farewell when I take the account-books to your mother. I have land enough belonging to myself alone, at Arsinoe; I know my own business and am tired of letting a woman meddle and mar it. Good-bye for the present, youngster. Tell your mother I am coming; I shall be with her in just an hour."
Righteousness will insure the divine favor; I never met him going astray who took the righteous path. And philosophers have said, 'Four orders of people are mortally afraid of four others the revenue embezzler, of the king; the thief, of the watchman; the fornicator, of the eavesdropper; and the adulteress, of the censor. But what has he to fear from the comptroller who has a fair set of account-books?
What has become of these thousands, Sir? Poor old Hesse could not tell: "God is my witness, no penny of them eyer stuck to me," asseverated poor old Hesse; "but where they are ? My account-books are in such a state; alas, and my poor old memory is not what it was!" A couple of weeks before Schlubhut's death, the English Newspapers are somewhat astir, in the way of narrative merely, as yet.
'I can always learn from him, said Carinthia. Fleetwood depicted his plodding Gower at the tussle with account-books. She was earnest in sympathy; not awake to the comical; dull as the clouds, dull as the discourse. Yet he throbbed for being near her took impression of her figure, the play of her features, the carriage of her body. He was shut from her eyes.
"I won't put up with such treatment from you, Mr. Tompkins," said the good lady, passionately, and walked from the room with a stately step and an effort at dignity. The husband retreated precipitately, and sought his place of business. He sighed as he took his seat upon a counting-house stool at the desk, and commenced turning over the pages of various large account-books.
The shelf he had hit upon was occupied mostly by a collection of account-books in the writing of the first Count Magnus. But one among them was not an account-book, but a book of alchemical and other tracts in another sixteenth-century hand.
"And now for the remainder of my proposal. If I am to become the architect of your fortunes, if I am to build them as I have planned them, I must also and in the same degree become the architect of my own." "In the same degree?" M. Binet frowned. "In the same degree. From to-day, if you please, we will conduct the affairs of this company in a proper manner, and we will keep account-books."
We submit that it has been still more customary to celebrate them in history, when they were of public importance. Hunter had previously instituted a similar argument in the case of Adam Bell, and doubtless the reasoning might be extended to Will Scathlock and Little John. With a little more rummaging of old account-books we shall be enabled to "comprehend all vagrom men."
He managed to do both in this way all the forenoon he delved in the garden; all the afternoon he went over the chaotic account-books of Reuben Gray, to bring them into order; and all the evening he studied in his own room. He kept up his Greek and Latin. And he read law. No time to dream of Claudia now.
It was very comfortable by the fire, and when he pitched the account-books away from her and took her hand again, she let it lie in his. He pressed it. "Well?" he whispered with a meaning look, wanting response. It seemed as if she had none to give, kind and sweet as she was to him. "I'm forgetting," he said in a few minutes, leaning forward to knock out his pipe, "that I've a job to do for you.
