May, with all his tenderness, felt that it must be respected, and turned the conversation. 'I have been calling at the Castle, he said, 'with Ernescliffe, and the governor showed me a curious thing, a volume of Archbishop Usher, which had been the Duke of Lauderdale's study after he was taken at Worcester.
