But when the Franciscan would have laid a restraining hand on the Dauphin's shoulder, Villon twitched him by the sleeve of his robe. "Hush, man, hush! Had you never young blood in you? Why, I am like Charlot the puppy, just itching to know what is inside." "But it is not good for youth " "It is good for youth to be young," said Villon testily.
"Upon my word Scotch, English, and foreign coins, of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, and some of them rari et rariores etiam rarissimi! Here is the bonnet-piece of James V., the unicorn of James II., ay, and the gold festoon of Queen Mary, with her head and the Dauphin's. And these were really found in the ruins of St. Ruth?"
