I knew there would be no fight; and perhaps Champion, too, was disappointed. Noblemen have been rather scarce at Birch's but the heir of a great Prince has been living with the Doctor for some years. He is Lord George Gaunt's eldest son, the noble Plantagenet Gaunt Gaunt, and nephew of the Most Honorable the Marquis of Steyne.
But the greatest imprudence of this nobleman proceeded from the openness of his temper, by which he was ill qualified to succeed in such difficult, and dangerous enterprises. * Camden, p. 629. Osborne, p. 397. Sir Walter Raleigh's Prerogative of Parliament, p. 43. Birch's Memoirs, vol. ii. p. 442, 443. * Sidney's Letters, vol. ii. p. 171. See note KK, at the end of the volume.
He also persuaded that prince to remain in quiet, and patiently to expect that time should open to him the inheritance of the crown, without pushing his friends on desperate enterprises, which would totally incapacitate them from serving him. * Birch's Memoirs, vol. ii. p. 510. Osborne, p. 615. * Spotswood, p. 471, 472 Winwood, vol. i. p. 352 * Spotswood, p. 471
Those poor dunces! Talk of being the last man, ah! what a pang it must be to be the last boy huge, misshapen, fourteen years of age, and "taken up" by a chap who is but six years old, and can't speak quite plain yet! Master Hulker is in that condition at Birch's. He is the most honest, kind, active, plucky, generous creature. He can do many things better than most boys.
Now, just at this moment, Wimperley nodded energetically and laughed outright, whereupon a man whose name was Marsham, who sat at an adjoining table, turned for Wimperley did not often laugh and saw Birch's long finger resting on the melon, and, since Marsham was, without the knowledge of the others, one of the largest operators, in Consolidated stock, that stock took a further jump just half an hour later, and all through Pennsylvania there were farmers, mechanics, country doctors and storekeepers who read the news and rejoiced exceedingly thereat.
Birch's opinion and here there is good reason for following him it belonged to the wife or daughter of "Master Talbot of Norwich, a most ingenious and industrious antiquary."
When these symptoms of the queen's returning affection towards Essex were known, they gave a sensible alarm to the faction which had declared their opposition to him. * Birch's Memoirs, p. 444, 445. Sidney's Letters, vol. ii. p. 196. Sidney's Letters, vol. ii. p. 151. * Sidney's Letters, vol. ii. p. 139. Sidney's Letters, vol. ii. p. 153 v Sidney's Letters, vol. ii. p. 155, 156.
The most convenient way of warming the gall is by holding it in a silver spoon over the flame of a light. The above remedy has been frequently tried with perfect success. GOUT. This is Col. Birch's recipe for rheumatic gout or acute rheumatism, commonly called in England the "Chelsea Pensioner."
What were the drab records of Birch's ledgers, or even the monumental pile of nearby buildings, compared to this impetuous slogan? He stood silently, plunged in the psychology of the moment. "How much power total I mean?" said Ardswell presently, pointing to the ripping flood. "Two hundred and forty thousand horsepower, at a minimum." "By George!"
Good old Prince! we have sat many a night smoking in the Doctor's harness-room, whither we retired when our boys were gone to bed, and our cares and canes put by.
