Belden, forgotten, ignored as completely as the conies, sat with choking throat and smarting eyes. For him the world was only dust and ashes a ruin which his own barbaric spirit had brought upon itself. Slowly the youth's eyes took on expression. "Are we still on the hill?" he asked. "Yes, dearest," she assured him. Then to Belden, "He knows where he is!" Wayland again struggled with reality.
As he approached she involuntarily sank down on her knees and tremblingly held forth the heavy key. "Receive my trust! Take it quickly," cried she, "for methinks Death is striving to snatch away my triumph. But he conies too late. Thank Heaven for this blessed hour! God save King George!"
My object now is not only to deal with the words that I have read as a starting-point, but rather to seek to draw out the wonderful significance of this great prophetic parable. I. I notice, first, the source from which the river conies. I have already anticipated that in pointing out that it flows from the very Temple itself.
And strange! like a dream, like a greeting from afar, conies stealing to his ears, "Be a good man." "Take the pen and sign!" whispers Venus, with glowing looks of love. He lays down the pen. "I must know what I sign. Read it, Sir Notary!"
I hear no complaints; but she has never crossed this door since we got her set up in that shop. She never conies near her father or her sister, though she lets them, leastways her sister, go and see her. I'm afraid Tom has been rayther unmerciful, with her.
A very common name in Gloucestershire for a field or wood is "conyger" or "conygre." It means the abode of conies or rabbits. Some farms have their "camp ground"; and there, sure enough, if one examines it carefully, will be found traces of some ancient British camp, with its old rampart running round it.
Indeed, Death, the Reaper, multiplied two-hundred-fold and mowing a swath of incredible proportions, could scarcely have pillaged the land of its conies more thoroughly. Before the on-press of the two-mile wall of red men with their smoking weapons, the panic-stricken rabbits scurried helplessly. Soon or late they must double back to their burrows, soon or late they must therefore die.
We sees no animals and no snakes, and we goes along the banks of the stream, and at last we conies to a deep pool that bubbled and fizzed up like soda water, all over. "'The Source! he says; 'the Source! an' you could ha' 'eard 'is voice a mile off; 'the Water of Life! I bathed here this morning look at me!
An old ecclesiastical legend conies into my mind at the moment, which tells how an emperor won the true Cross in battle from a pagan king, and brought it back, with great pomp, to Jerusalem; but found the gate walled up, and an angel standing before it, who said, 'Thou bringest back the Cross with pomp and splendour.
In the magnificent cosmic poem of Psalm civ half Whitman, half St. Francis not only his fellow-man but all creation comes under the benediction of the Hebrew poet's mood. "The high hills are for the wild goats; the rocks are a refuge for the conies.... The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their food from God ... man goeth forth unto his work, and to his labour until the evening."
