For other fascinating constellations, such as Leo or the Lion, Andromeda and Perseus, and the three bright stars by which we recognize Aquila the Eagle, you must wait awhile, unless you can get some one to point them out. Those which you have noted already are enough to lead you on to search for more.
Peggy lowered her eyelids, and pursed up her lips. "Andromeda Michaelides," she said slowly. "She was six last Christmas. Her father is Greek Consul in Manchester." There was a pause of stunned surprise; and then, suddenly, an extraordinary thing happened. Mariquita bounded from her seat, and began flying wildly round and round the table.
The rise of the breeze after the passage of the Nereids, the expostulation of Andromeda with Perseus, and the approach of the monster, are simply admirable.
"Do not be hard with him, Philip dear. He was always good to me, and and I have grown a wee bit afraid of you." "Afraid!" "Yes. You are so much older, so much sterner, than when you and I looked at the Southern Cross together from the bridge of the Andromeda." "I was a boy then, Iris. I am a man now. I have fought, and loved, and suffered. And what of you, dear heart?
'oo, did you say, miss?" demanded Watts, whose lower jaw actually dropped from sheer amazement. "Mr. Verity, the owner of the Andromeda. You are one of the crew, I suppose?" "I'm the chief officer. Watts is my name, miss. But d'you mean to tell me that ole David Verity 'as come 'ere to Brazil to this rotten . . . Sorry, miss, but you gev' me a turn, you did. An' Dickey Bulmer is 'e 'ere too?"
At twenty-six to be alone, with no one to interpose as much as a shadow across her path, was a strange sensation; it made her dizzy, as though she were a solitary bird flying through mid-air, and as she looked ahead on her aërial path, could see no tie more human than that which bound her to Andromeda and Orion. To this moral strain was added the reaction from physical fatigue.
Among the more remarkable of these are the well-known nebula in Andromeda, and the great spiral in Canes Venatici; and, as a general rule, the emissions of all such nebulæ as present the appearance of star-clusters grown misty through excessive distance are of the same kind. It would, however, be eminently rash to conclude thence that they are really aggregations of sun-like bodies.
Now, when things were at the worst, it came to pass that the Andromeda of Euripides being represented at Abdera, the whole orchestra was delighted with it: but of all the passages which delighted them, nothing operated more upon their imaginations than the tender strokes of nature which the poet had wrought up in that pathetic speech of Perseus, O Cupid, prince of gods and men! &c.
Then he went home to Argos, and reigned there well with fair Andromeda; and they had four sons and three daughters, and died in a good old age. And when they died, the ancients say, Athene took them up into the sky, with Cepheus and Cassiopoeia.
Such was the picture of Andromeda; the design of the other was thus: "Prometheus was represented bound down to a rock, with fetters of iron, while Hercules, armed with a bow and arrow, was seen approaching.
