Rizzio, to whom the sight of Morton had been as the removal of his last illusion, flung himself upon his knees before the Queen. Frail and feeble of body, and never a man of his hands, he was hopelessly unequal to the occasion. "Justice, madame!" he cried. "Faites justice! Sauvez ma vie!"

"Gentlemen, I decide that, according to the rules of the game, Monsieur is entitled to play the hand." "Bravo!" exclaimed one or two of my friend's supporters. "C'est idiot!" growled the malcontents. "Messieurs, faites vos jeux!" cried the croupier. The stakes were laid, the banker looked around, estimating the comparative values of the two tableaux.
Some task, or master, or hour of lesson, continually, and immitigably plagued him: he went abroad for amusement, and found dissipation. Thus, by her unaccommodating temper, and the obstinacy of her manifold virtues, she succeeded in alienating the affections of her husband.

A few sovereigns and a single crisp twenty-pound Bank of England note constituted the rear guard of Alan Hawke's vanished "sinews of war." The young man briefly noted the slender store, with a sigh. "Twenty-five pounds and a little trumpery jewelry I can't ever get back to India on that!" He seemed to hear again the rasping voice of the vulpine caller at Monte Carlo: "Messieurs! Faites vos jeux!
Or else you've been seeking only beastly carnal pleasure, while pregnancy and feeding interfered with your giving yourself up to it!"
