"Because, if you were not concerned, there would be, to put it in good Hibernian, only one horn to the dilemma and your uncle would be impaled upon that one." "Mercy!" she shuddered, in mock dismay. "That sounds almost vindictive. Are you vindictive, Mr. Ford?" "Terribly," he laughed. "The black-hearted villain of melodrama isn't a patch on me when I'm stirred."

But Helen at this instant recollected what Captain Warmsley had said of the fresh-killed pigeon, which the falconer in the nick of time is to lay upon the heron's back; and now, even as the cancelleering was going on three times most beautifully, Helen saw only the dove, the white dove, which that black-hearted German held, his great hand round the throat, just raised to wring it.

Their statements were torn to pieces, and they were nearly put to shame, when they began to attack the contradictions of the Gospel, but they could not prove their assertions. The black-hearted mean-spirited disputants shrank from this proposal, and answered only with angry words.
