Of the future, the hereafter, we are as ignorant as we are of the infinite conditions through which we have passed during the eternity which has preceded our brief present existences.
"Iss, iss, sir; there's glad I was to hear that." And, as Cardo left, and passed through the rest of the village, the same warm wish followed him from many a cottage window, and from every group of fishermen whom he passed on the way. "He has not forgotten his pleasant manners, whatever," said the men, as he greeted them all with his usual frank and genial smile.
The old man nervously fingered his papers. "Well, that is settled. I will not keep you longer from your fishing or your rowing which is it to-day, Cardo?" and he raised his black eyebrows, and spoke with a slight sneer. Cardo laughed good-naturedly.
