Dizzy's fireworks will soon burn out; and when people come to reflect on these transactions, and their consequences, they will be found to be some of the most questionable in modern English history. He has the merit of presenting a bold front to Europe and of avoiding war; but the cost will be great and the ulterior consequences formidable.
In "Tancred" I recall a description of a family of strolling players which seems to me more like the real thing than anything else of the kind in fiction. It is strange that Dizzy's novels should be neglected. Can any one with a pictorial sense fail to be delighted by their pageantry?
And this, too, was the evening when the June Bug was to sing the June Bug Wing Solo, composed by himself. Dizzy had heard his father practising the accompaniment; and the melody and words kept running through Dizzy's head somewhat like this: The June Bug Wing Solo Moderately fast "Crack!
But you'd have to be a great fool not to guess. I've put myself in, and " "And Ashe?" Kitty nodded. "All the novels that are written about politics nowadays except Dizzy's are such nonsense, aren't they? I just wanted to describe from the inside how a real statesman" she threw up her head proudly "lives, and what he does." "Excellent subject," said Darrell. "Well anybody else?" Kitty flushed.
The exclamation lingered a little, and there was involuntary surprise on Mrs. Wade's features. She cast a glance round the room. "Do sit down," urged Denzil, placing a chair. "What do you think of Dizzy's letter? Did you ever read such bunkum? And his 'men of light and leading' ha, ha, ha!" "He has stolen the phrase," remarked Mrs. Wade.
Curiosity ravaged her. On one of these days, breakfast over at half-past ten, young Mr. Chevenix declared his intention with cheerfulness and point. "Twentieth of April Dizzy's birthday, or Shakespeare's. Nevile, I'm going to fish your river. They are leaping like the boys in Eugene Aram, and I'm going to give them something to leap at. Now, what are all you people going to do?
Dizzy's moral courage carried him to the bath, but there his physical courage failed him. He could not pull the string that administered the cold shock. The bathroom is rich in such secrets, and life teems with them. The true hero is he who unites the two qualities. The physical element is the more plentiful.
Her knowledge was personal; the knowledge of one whose father had sat in Dizzy's latest Cabinet, while, through the endless cousinship of the English landed families, she was as much related to the Whig as to the Tory leaders of the past.
We all do it nowadays. It is like Dizzy's young man who "liked bad wine, he was so bored with good." Meanwhile, Madame de Netteville was leaning against the open window of the fantastic little room, with Robert beside her. 'You look as if you had had a strain, she said to him, abruptly, after they had talked business for a few minutes. 'What has been the matter?
Half of Dizzy's wing had been burned off. What would Flutter think now of the blackened silver wing of her brother! Down went Dizzy, his good wing beating helplessly upon the window sill Flutter and Mother Moth were in his mind. The cool air blew in through the shutter, which a few minutes before had closed upon him.
