It was a foot-note commentary on the way the service was going to pieces. Halkett, the "political" general superintendent, had called Dixon on the carpet for not making time with his train.
I have recommended the simple iteration of that one word in answer to him at his meetings, and the printing of it as a foot-note to his letters. Cecilia's combative spirit precipitated her to say, 'I hear the mob in it shouting Captain Beauchamp down. 'Ay, said Mr. Tuckham, 'it would be setting the mob to shout wisely at last. 'The mob is a wild beast.
This is partially true of all great minds, open and sensitive to truth and beauty through any large arc of their circumference; but it is true in an unexampled sense of Shakespeare, the vast round of whose balanced nature seems to have been equatorial, and to have had a southward exposure and a summer sympathy at every point, so that life, society, statecraft, serve us at last but as commentaries on him, and whatever we have gathered of thought, of knowledge, and of experience, confronted with his marvellous page, shrinks to a mere foot-note, the stepping-stone to some hitherto inaccessible verse.
The Sixth Dynasty is called the Elephantine, from the island immediately facing Syene which was the traditional seat of the Dynasty, and on which the temples stood. The tombs of Elephantine were discovered by General Sir F. Grenfell, K.C.B., in 1885, in the neighbouring cliffs of the Libyan Desert: see foot-note p. 149.

From this time onward there are frequent references to Aukpaque, some of which are indicated in the foot-note below.
I will now make the reader acquainted with the hitherto unpublished account of Madame Rubio, who declared solemnly that her version was correct in every detail. Franchomme's version, as given in Madame Audley's book on Chopin, differs in several points from that of Madame Rubio; I shall, therefore, reproduce it for comparison in a foot-note.
The girl spoke again, in the same posture. Her face toward the fire. "How do you feel about Lord Eckhart?" "Feel!" The man repeated the word. He hesitated a little. "We trusted Lord Eckhart. We have found all English honorable." "Lord Eckhart is partly German," the girl went on. The man's voice in reply was like a foot-note to a discourse. "Ah!"
The blue lake was about the only part true to nature; and even that should have had a foot-note to state that it was generally lashed into high, unnavigable waves, by a chronic nor'-wester. No: there was nothing for it but to go home again to the little run which had seemed such a mere paddock in our eyes, whilst we indulged in castle-building over 100,000 acres of country.
