What solicitation for entrance to their households and sanctuaries! See Agassiz or Tyndale investigating the flow of glaciers. Here is no catching at book-aspects of the matter, and launching instantly into generalization. No, these men must get within eyeshot, within hand-reach, of the facts, and know first precisely and intimately what these are.
The fellow, with his cast-down eyes, and his well-parted hair, seemed to Lennan to be saying: "Yes, sir it is quite natural that you should take the note out of eyeshot, sir BUT I KNOW; fortunately, there is no necessity for alarm I am strictly confidential." And this was what the note contained: "You promised to ride with me once you DID promise, and you never have.
Were the spot revealed in the man the whole man, then, so unerring is the eyeshot at him, we should have only to transform ourselves into cowards fronting a crisis to read him through and topple over the Sphinx of life by presenting her the sum of her most mysterious creature in an epigram.
'Nothing, replied Seraphina 'I desire to speak with you. Send off the rest. She panted between each phrase; but her mind was clear.

"That you would not keep your word." "I have though, for eight weeks." "I thought your promise meant " "Ah no.

"Come now, I'm giving you your chance here to make good." "Well then, let me take it."

At first we rose to a still greater height, in order more effectually to escape the watchful eyes of our enemies, and then, after having moved rapidly several hundred miles toward the west, we dropped down again within easy eyeshot of the surface of the planet, and commenced our inspection.
