He could see of her nothing save her back that and a certain quality of carriage, a gait measured and deliberate. He threw a word to the thief, who stood by with his hands in his pockets and an air of relishing the situation. "All right; you can go," he said, and started upon the chase of the secret bestower of alms. "And me?" the outraged thief cried after him in tones of bitterness. "And me?
Eagerly, yet with a certain unexpected formality, the men accepted these, passing them for examination from one to another with many a grunt of satisfaction. To be sure, no brave among them but might the next moment decide to try out the merits of his gift upon the bestower, but this danger the adventurers had to risk.
"Sesha said, 'O divine Lord of all creatures, O bestower of boons, O lord of the Earth, lord of every created thing, lord of the universe, I will, even as thou sayest hold the Earth steady. Therefore, O lord of all creatures, place her on my head. "Brahman said, 'O best of snakes, go underneath the Earth. She will herself give thee a crevice to pass through.
Some Indian Ceres or Minerva must have been the inventor and bestower of it; and when the reign of poetry commences here, its leaves and string of nuts may be represented on our works of art. Already, by the first of September, I had seen two or three small maples turned scarlet across the pond, beneath where the white stems of three aspens diverged, at the point of a promontory, next the water.
It is needless to say that this commission had seriously occupied the thoughts of the serious girl who, without any sense of personal importance, found herself thus placed in the position of an official bestower of fortune, having it in her power to confer comfort, independence, and even wealth; for she was left almost entirely unrestricted as to her disposition of the money, and might at her pleasure confer a very large sum upon a favourite.
By steadily grasping this inestimable clew, rendered still more precious by the beauty of the donor, man can never be led astray will never ramble out of his course; but if, careless of its invaluable properties, for a single instant he suffers it to drop from his hand; if, like another Theseus, ungrateful for the favour, he abandons the fair bestower, he will infallibly fall again into his ancient wanderings; most assuredly become the prey to the cannibal offspring of the White Bull.
He would thus also manifest self-denial and avoid the charge of interested motives! he could not face the suspicion of being a suitor with nothing to offer! George had always taken the grand role that of superior, benefactor, bestower. He was powerful in condescension! Not, therefore, until the night before he sailed did he go to Potlurg. Alexa received him with a shade of displeasure.
"See, my people," he cried, holding up his hands, palm outward, in his accustomed god-like way; "I am indeed a great deity Lord of Heaven, Lord of Earth, Life of the World, Master of Time, Measurer of the Sun's Course, Spirit of Growth, Creator of the Harvest, Master of Mortals, Bestower of Breath upon Men, Chief Pillar of Heaven!"
Never say "I fear I rob you," or "I am really ashamed to take it," &c., &c. Such deprecatory phrases imply that you think the bestower of the gift cannot spare or afford it. Acknowledge the receipt of a present without delay. Give a foreigner his name in full, as Monsieur de Vigny never as Monsieur only. In speaking of him, give him his title, if he has one.
The triangle is the symbol of the Supreme Architect of the Universe the Creator; and when surrounded by rays of glory, it becomes a symbol of the Architect and Bestower of Light.
