'Beda, says he, 'I am he that hanged and tortured men at my lord's bidding: I am Roger, and my sins be many. 'Then prithee, says I, 'prithee, Roger, add not another to thy sins by cutting the throat of a fool. 'Needs must I, says he, dolorous of voice, 'unless thou dost answer me two questions. 'Nay, I will answer thee two hundred an thou leave my throat unslit, says I. 'But two, says Roger, sighing.
Beda did not confine his attention to those superior sciences. He treated of music, and of rhetoric, of grammar, and the art of versification, and of arithmetic, both by letters and on the fingers; and his work on this last subject is the only one in which that piece of antique curiosity has been preserved to us.
The meal was eaten in silence; the nut-brown eyes of Nerina looked wistfully in their faces, but she asked nothing; she guessed enough. Adone said nothing to Don Silverio of the summons, for he knew that the priest would counsel strongly his attendance in person at San Beda, even though the date was already passed.
It is found in the poetry of Manilius and Seneca, and it was a common thought in the minds of Virgil and Ovid and Pliny. You will find it in St. Augustine, and St. Isidore and Beda, and in many of the moderns. I myself have little knowledge of such things, but on the appeal to high authority your doctrine succeeds. "What a thing is learning!" Battista exclaimed with reverence.
It wanted then two hours of noon. When twelve strokes sounded from across the river, tolled slowly by the old bronze bell of the church tower, he went for the noonday meal and rest to the house. The old man was not longer there, but Clelia Alba said to him "Dario says they summon you to Dan Beda, and that you will not go?" "He said right." "But, my son," cried his mother, "go you must!
"Yet is my father dead, lord and I am outcast!" said Beda, smiling and fingering his dagger. "So then, will ye slay me, Beda wilt murder thy lord? Why then, strike, fool, strike here, i' the throat, and let thy steel be hard-driven. Come!" Then Sir Pertolepe feebly raised his bloody head, proffering his throat to the steel and so stood faint in his bonds, yet watching the jester calm-eyed.
The doctors were required to decide according to their conscience, having the fear of God before their eyes; and no open effort was ventured to dictate the judgment which was to be delivered. The majority of the doctors understood their duty and their position, and a speedy resolution was anticipated, when a certain Dr. Beda, an energetic Ultramontane, commenced an opposition.
"We have learnt, to our great displeasure, that one Beda, an imperialist, has dared to raise an agitation among the theologians, dissuading them from giving their voices on the cause of the King of England. On receipt of this letter, therefore, you shall cause the said Beda to appear before you, and you shall show him the grievous anger which he has given us cause to entertain towards him.
For some years Stunica kept persecuting Erasmus with his criticism, to the latter's great vexation; at last there followed a rapprochement, probably as Erasmus became more conservative, and a kindly attitude on the part of Stunica. No less long and violent was the quarrel with the syndic of the Sorbonne, Noel Bedier or Beda, which began in 1522.
Among the ancients Argal, Magirus, and Solmatheus. Among the moderns St. Augustine, St. Ambrose, Beda and Boethius, all countenance the opinion.
