Oh, stick to French by all means, Tom; it's in your line! But you might just as well write for Number 2." "I really can't this time," said Tom. Ricketts had an excuse very similar. Bullinger had hurt his foot, he said, and could not possibly write; and Braddy had begun to study fossils, he said, and was bound to devote all his spare time to them.
Hurrah for the Fifth!" shouted Bullinger. "Ninety-seven to seventy. Splendid, old fellow!" cried another. "I was certain you'd win," said another. "I have not won," said Wraysford, drily, and evidently not liking these marked congratulations; "I'm second."
A few of the better sort, like Pembury and Bullinger, had the courage, at whatever cost, to act up to their convictions, and declared at once that they had been wrong, and were ashamed of it. The next step was to approach Oliver, and that was more difficult, for he was such a queer fellow there was no knowing where to have him. However, Pembury's wit helped him over the difficulty as usual.
"M. Bullinger found us, as every one else did, in deep affliction; I handed him your letter without saying a word; he dissembled very well; and having read it, enquired what I thought about it. I said, that I firmly believed my dear wife was no more.
"Oh, you fellows," began Loman, feeling not quite so confident now as he had felt five minutes ago, "we can't have that thing of yours hanging out in the passage like that. It makes a crowd too much row. Whose is it?" "Not mine," said Wraysford, laughing; "ask Bully perhaps it's his." "Not a bit of it," said Bullinger; "it's yours, isn't it, Simon?"
Bullinger and Gualterus "were unwilling to contend with these men like fencing-masters," tired of their argufying; unable to "withdraw our entire confidence from the Bishops." Knox may have been less unsympathetic, but his advice agreed with the advice of the Genevans.
When Bullinger expressed his surprise that he should still talk of a difference in doctrine, he gave up offering any more explanations on the subject; and the Swiss, for their part, after his second letter, made no further attempt to effect a more perfect agreement.
Sallerl; pray tell her I mean to enclose some verses to show my gratitude to her in my letter to Herr Bullinger. Thank my sister also; she is to keep the Schuster duets, and give herself no further trouble on the subject. In your first letter, dear papa, you write that I lowered myself by my conduct to that lad Langenmantl. Anything but that! I was only straightforward, no more.
Mind, I'm not going to tell anybody, because, of course, it's a secret." "Shut up, you miserable blockhead, unless you want to be kicked!" shouted Bullinger. "No one wants to know what you're going to do. You've done mischief enough already." "Oh, well, I didn't mean, you know," said the poet; "all I said was I met him coming "
The Swiss divine Bullinger, after a lengthy and elaborately learned argument as to the particular day in the week of creation upon which it was most probable that God called the angels into being, says, by way of peroration, "Let us lead a holy and angel-like life in the sight of God's holy angels.
