Archbishop Chichele, one of Wykeham's first scholars, built St. Bernard's College, now St. John Baptist's, which he gave to the Cistercians before its completion; and later in life he founded the College of All Souls, while in his native village of Higham Ferrers, Northants, he built and endowed a school, bede-house, and church, which are among some of the loveliest pieces of building we possess.
And he will go to I dare not imagine what catastrophe! Who can prevent it? Who can prevent it? 'There is you, I said. Lady Chichele laughed hysterically. 'I think you ought to say, "There are you." I what can I do? Do you realize that it's JUDY? My friend my other self? Do you think we can drag all that out of it? Do you think a tie like that can be broken by an accident by a misfortune?
As I drove to the Club next day I decided that I would not tell Anna Chichele of Colonel Harbottle's projected furlough. If to Judy telling her would be like taking an oath that they would go, to me it would at least be like assuming sponsorship for their intention. That would be heavy indeed. From the first of April we were then in March.
The Friars lifted up their heads again, and Oxford was becoming a large ecclesiastical school. As the University declared to Archbishop Chichele , "Our noble mother, that was blessed in so goodly an offspring, is all but utterly destroyed and desolate." Presently the foreign wars and the wars of the Roses drained the University of the youth of England.
Lady Chichele and I exchanged a glance of candid admission. 'Otherwise she would be capable of sacrificing everything everything. Of gathering her life into an hour. I know. And do you know if the thing were less impossible, less grotesque, I should not be so much afraid? I mean that the ABSOLUTE indefensibility of it might bring her a recklessness and a momentum which might
Arundel was dead; but the infernal generalissimo of the persecutors, who could not die, was ready with a worthy successor. Henry Chichele stepped into the vacant seat, and the fierce battle against the saints went on. The nephew of the deceased Archbishop, Thomas Earl of Arundel, presented himself at Cardiff early in the year.
For a moment or two I took my share of the heavy sense of it, my trivial share, which yet was an experience sufficiently exciting. 'I am afraid it will have to be faced, I said. 'What will happen? Anna cried. 'Oh, what will happen? 'Why not the usual thing? Lady Chichele looked up quickly as if at a reminder.
Anna Chichele, from the other side of the room, smiled on the pair. 'I depend on you and Judy to be good to him while we are away, she said. She and Sir Peter were going on leave at the end of the week to Scotland, as usual, for the shooting. Following her glance I felt incapable of the proportion she assigned me. 'I will see after his socks with pleasure, I said.
They were pals too, but the terms were different. People discussed it according to their lights, and girls said in pretty wonderment that Mrs. Harbottle and Mrs. Chichele were like men, they never kissed each other. I think Judy prescribed these conditions. Anna was far more a person who did as the world told her.
She walked mechanically after them, and would have stepped in with it but for the sight of her own gleaming landau drawn up within a yard or two, and the General waiting. We all got home somehow, taking it with us, and I gave Lady Chichele twenty-four hours to come to me with her face all one question and her heart all one fear. She came in twelve.
