And I shud like to stick a Lucifer in his rick some dry windy night." Speed-the-Plough screwed up an eye villainously. "He wants hittin' in the wind, jest where the pocket is, master, do Varmer Blaize, and he'll cry out 'O Lor'! Varmer Blaize will. You won't get the better o' Varmer Blaize by no means, as I makes out, if ye doan't hit into him jest there."
"You can get plenty of vinegar and plague medicine in the pest-house." "But I have no money to pay for them," rejoined Blaize. "I will lend you some," said Leonard, placing a few pieces in his hand. "Now, come along." Blaize would fain have run away, but, afraid of incurring the apprentice's anger, he walked tremblingly after him.
Between him and Lucy a tender intimacy grew. "I told you she could talk, sir," said Adrian. "She thinks!" said the baronet. The delicate question how she was to treat her uncle, he settled generously. Farmer Blaize should come up to Raynham when he would: Lucy must visit him at least three times a week. He had Farmer Blaize and Mrs.
The farmer threw an objectionable shrewdness into his query, that caused Richard to compress his mouth and glance high. Farmer Blaize was positive 'twas a lie. "Hum! Ye still hold to't you fired the rick?" he asked. "The blame is mine!" quoth Richard, with the loftiness of a patriot of old Rome. "Na, na!" the straightforward Briton put him aside. "Ye did't, or ye didn't do't. Did ye do't, or no?"
"Who told you of this remedy?" asked Blaize, taking the bag. "Your mother," returned Patience. "I wonder I never heard of it," said the porter. "She wouldn't mention it to you, because the doctor advised her not to put such matters into your head," replied Patience. "But I couldn't help indulging you. Heigho! I hope the plague will soon be over."
Blaize, he informed them significantly, and made once more a mysterious allusion to the Punic elephant, bidding his relatives be at peace. They were attaching, in his opinion, too much importance to Richard's complicity. The man was a fool, and a very extraordinary arsonite, to have an accomplice at all. It was a thing unknown in the annals of rick-burning.
"Ask no questions, but do as I bid you," rejoined Leonard, opening the door, and about to go forth. "Stop a moment," cried Blaize, detaining him, and drawing from his pocket a handful of simples. "Won't you take some of them with you to guard against infection?
You don't know what horrid things are done to those afflicted with my complaint. But I do, for I have informed myself on the subject. Their skins are scarified, and their sores blistered, lanced, cauterized, and sometimes burned away with a knob of red-hot iron, called 'the button." "But iv id is necessary, myn goed Blaize, you musd submid," replied his mother.
Blaize declared it was "worse than being in Newgate, and that he must take an additional rufus to set right his digestion;" while Patience affirmed "that it was like being buried alive, and that she would not stand it." Mr. Bloundel paid no attention to their complaints, but addressed himself seriously to the remedy.
This Farmer Blaize well knew, and he reckoned consequently that here was an animal always to be relied on a sort of human composition out of dog, horse, and bull, a cut above each of these quadrupeds in usefulness, and costing proportionately more, but on the whole worth the money, and therefore invaluable, as everything worth its money must be to a wise man.
