The first name that will interest us was Eden's, and both Walter and Power were watching anxiously to see where he would come out in his form. Power had been so kindly coaching him in his work that they expected him to be high; but it was as much to his surprise as to their gratification, that his name was read out third. Jones and Harpour were, as was natural, last in their respective forms.

"I'll promise you one thing the justices shall sweep you out of the jail." "How can you promise that?" "Because they only see with my eyes, and, hear with my ears; they would do a great deal more for me than kick out a refractory chaplain." Mr. Eden's eye flashed, he took out his note-book. "Present Fry, Hodges, Evans. Mr.

"And a nice business your interference has made, sir!" cried Sir Morton angrily. "You see now that it is impossible for two such adverse elements to get on together. The brutes! to turn upon those who had been fighting by their side!" "Are you speaking about your men or Sir Edward Eden's?" said the old man drily. "Eden's, of course," cried Sir Morton angrily.

The children stood wonder-struck, and Miss Eden's eyes filled with emotional tears. "How beautiful!" she murmured "How very beautiful!" Cicely rose from the organ-stool, and turned round. "Here is Mr. Walden," she said, in quite a matter-of-fact way as she perceived him. "It IS Mr. Walden, isn't it?" "Yes, it is," replied John, advancing with a smile "And very fortunate Mr.

In such sweet posture our first Parents mov'd, While, hand in hand, through Eden's bowers they rov'd; Ere yet the Devil, with promise foul and false, Turn'd their poor heads and taught them how to Walse. One hand grasps hers, the other holds her hip * For so the Law's laid down by Baron Trip." "Have you heard, my deer Anne, how my spirits are sunk? Have you heard of the cause?

"My lord, this be the Sun, the Moon thou hadst before; * So the two greater lights now in thy Heaven unite: Conjunction promising to me prosperity, * And Kausar draught to thee and Eden's long delight. Earth shows no charms, by Allah, ranking as their third, * Nor King who secondeth our Conquering King in might."

"Here, I'll come and speak to you;" and stepping noiselessly out of bed, he whispered in Eden's ear, "Never mind, my poor little fellow; don't be frightened; the boy didn't mean to hurt you; he was only shoving your bed up and down for a joke. Someone did the same to me, so I jumped up and licked him with a slipper." "But I got so frightened. Oh, do you think they'll do it again to-night?"

"Here, in a placid waking dream, I'm free from worldly troubles, Calm as the rippling silver stream that in the sunshine bubbles; And when sweet Eden's blissful bowers some abler bard has writ on, Despairing to transcend his powers, I'll ditto say for Ditton."

Travers accompanied Eden's letter, sent in the first place to Lincoln's Inn, which gave her something to expect and think about. The lawyer wrote to say that he would call to see her at twelve o'clock on the following morning. Fan, in her new dress, and with a slight flush caused by excitement, was waiting for him when he arrived.

The lad leaped at it to pick it up, but checked himself, and gave it a kick which sent it off the path down the slope toward the river. "I'm not going to pick up an Eden's whip," he said proudly. "Just like her brother," he muttered, as he went on faster and faster, to avoid the temptation of running back to pick it up. "They are a proud, evil race," as father said.
