Honeyman, A.M., Incumbent of," etc. "Clergymen's Grandmothers' Fund. Sermons in aid of this admirable institution will be preached on Sunday, 4th May, by the Very Rev. the Dean of Pimlico, and the Rev.
Reflex action, the mechanical sympathy, if I may so call it, of distant parts; Instinct, which is crystallized intelligence, an absolute law with its invariable planes and angles introduced into the sphere of consciousness, as raphides are inclosed in the living cells of plants; Intellect, the operation of the thinking principle through material organs, with an appreciable waste of tissue in every act of thought, so that our clergymen's blood has more phosphates to get rid of on Monday than on any other day of the week; Will, theoretically the absolute determining power, practically limited in different degrees by the varying organization of races and individuals, annulled or perverted by different ill-understood organic changes; on all these subjects our knowledge is in its infancy, and from the study of some of them the interdict of the Vatican is hardly yet removed.
But Hester jars against the preconceived ideas which depute that clergymen's sisters and daughters should, as a matter of course, offer up their youth and hair and teeth and eyesight on the altar of parochial work. She does and is nothing that long custom expects her to do and be. Originality is out of place in a clergyman's family, just because it is so urgently needed.
There were young men who read, lying in shallow arm-chairs, holding their books as if they had hold in their hands of something that would see them through; they being all in a torment, coming from midland towns, clergymen's sons. Others read Keats. And those long histories in many volumes surely some one was now beginning at the beginning in order to understand the Holy Roman Empire, as one must.
I suppose you know that my great-grandfather was a captain in the navy, and he brought his son up a parson; now, turn about is fair play, and the parson ought to give a son back to a man-of-war. I've been reading the lives of naval men, and it's surprising how many clergymen's sons, in England, go into the navy, and how many sailors' sons get to be priests."
"What a condition," said the doctor, "for the son of a clergyman of the Church of England." "I don't see why clergymen's sons should pay their debts more than other young men," said Charlotte. "He's had as much from me since he left school as is held sufficient for the eldest son of many a nobleman," said the angry father. "Well, sir," said Charlotte, "give him another chance."
It was certain that the soldiers and the policemen would not bid for the cattle, and probably could not pay for them, and the population of the district would have made the place very uncomfortable for any of the clergymen's friends who showed an anxiety to buy up the impounded beasts.
Celestina had been turning her bright brown eyes from one parent to another in turn as they spoke. 'Is London much grander than Seacove? she asked. 'I thought the Rectory was such a fine house. Mrs. Fairchild smiled. 'It might be made very nice. There's plenty of room any way. And many clergymen's families are very simple and homely. 'I wonder if there are any little girls, said Celestina.
Her perception of what the outside world was made of, latterly somewhat obscured by solitude and her lover's company, had been revived to-day by her entertainment of the Bishop, clergymen, and, more particularly, clergymen's wives; and it did not diminish her sense of the difficulties in Swithin's path to see anew how little was thought of the greatest gifts, mental and spiritual, if they were not backed up by substantial temporalities.
To Delancey all women have had lovers and husbands and children and religious conversions and railway accidents. Old maids and clergymen's wives adore him. I don't know what it was that made him write originally. Perhaps it was his name Delancey Woburn sounds like the author or the hero of a serial.
