So saying, he dismissed Roland Graeme, through a different door from that by which he had entered, signed a cross, and pronounced a benedicite as they parted, and then, still muttering to himself, retired into the garden, and locked the door on the inside. Pray God she prove not masculine ere long!
Let us try to see first the type of mind with which we are dealing. It is fundamentally religious, perceiving the unity and kinship and glory of all created things. It is this passion of worship which inspired St. Francis of Assisi's "Canticle to the Sun." It cries, "Benedicite, Omnia opera Domini: All ye Green Things upon the Earth, bless ye the Lord!"
Our own Archbishop!" Madame Patoux jumped up, and seizing her children, held one in each hand as she curtsied up and down. Benedicite!" said the new-comer, lightly signing the cross in air with a sociable smile "Do not disturb yourselves, my children! You have with you in this house the eminent Cardinal Bonpre?"
Abbs Head rose before them; they passed through the outer buildings intended as shelter for the attendants of ladies coming to the nunnery, and knocked at the gateway. A wicket in the door was opened, and the portress looked out through a grating. 'Benedicite, good Sister, said Malcolm.
He made use of the ordinary formula in asking permission to speak, 'Benedicite. Father Maximin replied 'Dominus, and on this word, which permitted him to speak, the brother showed his glasses and said he could no longer see clearly.
John d'Estivet, surnamed 'Bénédicité, canon of Beauvais and Bayeux, was another of Cauchon's creatures. He acted the part of Procureur-Général during the trial. D'Estivet was a gross and cruel ecclesiastic, and it is somewhat satisfactory to know his end. He was found dead in a muddy ditch soon after Joan of Arc's death. As M. Fabre justly says, 'He perished in his native element.
The abbot on the threshold stood, And in his hands the holy rood; Back on his shoulders flowed his hood, The torch's glaring ray Showed, in its red and flashing light, His withered cheek and amice white, His blue eye glistening cold and bright, His tresses scant and gray. "Fair lords," he said, "our lady's love, And peace be with you from above, And benedicite!
"Marry!" said the Abbot, somewhat impatiently, "the greatest discretion that I can see in the matter is, to eat our victuals being hot Father Eustace, say the Benedicite, and cut up the haunch."
Turkeys strolled in and out among the toilet-makers. Pigs accompanied their mistresses from doorway to doorway as dogs accompany the women of other countries. And the cavalcade of the people of Marechiaro was hailed from all sides with pleasantries and promises to meet at the fair, with broad jokes or respectful salutations. Many a "Benedicite!" or "C'ci basu li mano!" greeted Maurice.
Ah, benedicite! how he will mourn over the fall of such a pearl of knighthood, be it on the side he happens to favour, or on the other. But, truly, for sweeping from the face of the earth some few hundreds of villain churls, who are born but to plough it, the high-born and inquisitive historian has marvellous little sympathy, as little, or less, perhaps, than John Grahame of Claverhouse."
