And Art, the King's Steward, said: "The Coming of the King of the Cats into King Connal's dominion is a story still to be told. To your father's Son in all truth be it told" Quick-to-Grab, in consultation with the Seven Elders of the Cat-Kin decided that the Blacksmith's forge would be a fit residence for the King of the Cats. It was clean and commodious.
But it was chiefly in comparing different ideas of happiness and modes of life, that our young hero's mind was enlarged by Connal's conversation whilst the comparison he secretly made between this polished gentleman's principles and his own, was always more satisfactory to his pride of virtue, than Connal's vanity could have conceived to be possible.
Moriarty," said Ormond, who did not wish to hear any farther particulars of Mr. Connal's domestic economy: and he silenced Moriarty, by pointing to a bird. But the bird flew away, and Moriarty returned to his point. "I wouldn't be telling the like of any jantleman, but to show the nature of him.
If your honour will give me leave, I'll tell you the whole story." "That will be a long affair, Moriarty, if you talk out of the face, as you used to do. I will, however, find an opportunity to hear it all. But, in the meantime, stay where you are till I return." Ormond went instantly to Connal's, to inform him of what had happened. His astonishment was obviously mixed with disappointment.
In the vast crowd he was distinguished: some nobleman of note asked who he was another observed l'air noble another exclaimed, " Le bel Anglois!" and his fortune was made at Paris; especially as a friend of Madame du Barry's asked where he bought his embroidery. He went afterwards, at least in Connal's society, by the name of "Le bel Anglois."
In his own apartment, writing letters, his servant believed. O'Shane sent to beg to see him, as soon as he was at leisure. At twelve o'clock Dora, Mademoiselle, and Ormond, were all in the study, punctually as the clock was striking. "Well, what is M. de Connal's answer?" cried Mademoiselle. "If he hesitate, my dear Dore, give him up dat minute."
He was in a painful situation; he spent as much of his time as he could at the farm his friend had given him. As soon as O'Shane found that there was no truth in the report of Black Connal's intended marriage in England, that he claimed in earnest his promise of his daughter, and that Dora herself inclined to the new love, his kind heart felt for poor Harry.
In the same way he soon discriminated, in conversation, between Corny's power of original thinking, and M. de Connal's knack of throwing old thoughts into new words; between the power of answering an argument, and the art of evading it by a repartee.
Mademoiselle seemed to hesitate; but Dora eagerly accepted the proposal, thanked her father for his kindness, and declared that she should be happy to have, and to abide by, this test of Mr. Connal's love. If he were so base as to prefer half her fortune to herself, she should, she said, think herself happy in having escaped from such a traitor.
"Oh! faith, and if I have not been withinside of him, I have heard enough from them that seen him turned inside out, hot and cold. Sure I went down there last summer, to his country, to see a shister of my own that's married in it; and lives just by Connal's Town, as the man calls that sheep farm of his."
