Then Jurgen looked at her for a moment, with twinkling eyes: then Anaitis, standing in his shadow, smiled with glowing eyes: then Jurgen blew out those black candles: and then it was quite dark. Shortcomings of Prince Jurgen Now the happenings just recorded befell on the eve of the Nativity of St.

Besides, why keep talking about this Stella, after a vengeance so spectacular and thorough as that to which Anaitis had out of hand resorted? why keep reverting to a topic which was repugnant to Jurgen and visibly upset the dearest nature myth in all legend? Was it quite fair to anyone concerned? That was the sensible way in which Jurgen put it. Still, he became honestly fond of Anaitis.

"Duke of Logreus," says the voice of Dame Anaitis, "do you not think it would be better to retire, before such antics at the door of my bedroom give rise to a scandal?" For Anaitis had half-opened the door of her bedroom, and with a lamp in her hand, was peering out into the narrow stairway.

We have no occasion to go to a distance for what we can pick up under our feet. Had it been an accidental name, the similarity between it and Anaitis might have had something in it; but it turns out to be a mere physiological name. Macleod said, Mr. M'Queen's knowledge of etymology had destroyed his conjecture. JOHNSON. 'Yes, Sir; Mr.

Anaitis took salt and water from the child, and mingled these. "Let the salt of earth enable the thin fluid to assume the virtue of the teeming sea!" Then, kneeling, she touched the lance, and began to stroke it lovingly. To Jurgen she said: "Now may you be fervent of soul and body! May the endless Serpent be your crown, and the fertile flame of the sun your strength!"

John the Baptist: and thereafter Jurgen abode in Cocaigne, and complied with the customs of that country. In the palace of Queen Anaitis, all manner of pastimes were practised without any cessation. Jurgen, who considered himself to be somewhat of an authority upon such contrivances, was soon astounded by his own innocence.

And this was the first time that Jurgen, who had been a pawnbroker, held any discourse with Dame Anaitis, whom men called the Lady of the Lake. Why Merlin Talked in Twilight It was two days later that Jurgen was sent for by Merlin Ambrosius. The Duke of Logreus came to the magician in twilight, for the windows of this room were covered with sheets which shut out the full radiance of day.

"Ah, my dear," says Anaitis, "you were controlled by the finger of Fate." "I do not altogether like that figure of speech. It makes one seem too trivial, to be controlled by a mere finger. No, it is not quite complimentary to call what prompted me a finger." "By the long arm of coincidence, then."

But it is also possible that it may be a fortification; or it may be a place of Christian worship, as the first Christians often chose remote and wild places, to make an impression on the mind; or, if it was a heathen temple, it may have been built near a river, for the purpose of lustration; and there is such a multitude of divinities, to whom it may have been dedicated, that the chance of its being a temple of Anaitis is hardly any thing.

You should learn, in justice to yourself as well as to others, to be tolerant of all things; and to acknowledge that in a being of man's mingled nature a strain of respectability is apt to develop every now and then, whatever you might prefer." But Anaitis had high notions as to her mission, and merely told him that he ought not to speak with levity of such matters.
