Clement was getting towards an age when clever youngsters are not unapt to exercise their talents in depreciating home surroundings. He said that it was no wonder that Madame was disgusted, and scolded us for taking her into the feast. Jack took quite a different view of the matter. "The feast's very good fun in its way," said he; "and Madame only wants tackling. I'll tackle her."
Jesus Christ said that the Lord's Supper was to be observed 'in remembrance of Me. That was His explanation of its purpose, and I for one am content to take as the expounder of the laws of the feast, the feast's own Founder. Now one more word. In the Passover men fed on the Sacrifice. Jesus Christ presents Himself to each of us as at once the Sacrifice for our sins and the Food of our souls.
But this, as it was supposed to be spoken aside, Dame Glendinning did not think it convenient to hear. Nay, let me have the friends who eat my victuals, As various as my dishes. The feast's naught, Where one huge plate predominates.
More than one face among the Bowdens showed that only opportunity and stimulus were lacking, a narrow set of circumstances had caged a fine able character and held it captive. One sees exactly the same types in a country gathering as in the most brilliant city company. You are safe to be understood if the spirit of your speech is the same for one neighbor as for the other. XIX. The Feast's End
There is nothing here of sacramental efficacy, but simply the loving desire to be remembered and the condescending entrusting of some power to recall him to these outward symbols. Strange that, if the communion were so much more, as the sacramentarian theory makes it, the feast's own Founder should not have said a word to hint that it was.
Till the feast's ready, we've time for a nap: When the feast's over, we'll go to the ball Red Queen, and White Queen, and Alice, and all! 'And now you know the words, she added, as she put her head down on Alice's other shoulder, 'just sing it through to ME. I'm getting sleepy, too. In another moment both Queens were fast asleep, and snoring loud.
This thought must have come to Jimmy, for he said suddenly, removing his face from inside a wide-bitten crescent of melon-rind: "Your feast's as good as the feast of the Immortals, almost."
When I went out towards noon, for perhaps the twentieth time that day, to learn whether our commissary wagons had returned from City Point with the turkeys, the muddy parade ground was dotted with groups of shivering men, all looking anxiously for the feast's arrival.
"The wedding feast's still on, and everybody who is anybody at Yacoua, is there. You know, if you're an Arab, or even a Kabyle, it takes you a week to be married properly, and you have high jinks every day: music and dancing and eating, and if you've money enough, above all you make the powder speak. Mouni's people are doing her well. What a good thing we've got the watch!
It must have been baked in sections, in one of the last of the great brick ovens, and fastened together on the morning of the day. There was a general sigh when this fell into ruin at the feast's end, and it was shared by a great part of the assembly, not without seriousness, and as if it were a pledge and token of loyalty.
