How does that affect two quiet nomads in Elam especially when one of them is a Swiss and one a Brazilian?" He laughed, and lighted a cigar the other offered him. "My dear Ganz, it is an enigma to me how a man who can listen to such a fountain, and admire such stars, can perpetually sigh after the absurdities of Europe! Which reminds me that I met an Englishman this morning." "Well, what of that?
His comments ran on: "Bon soir, Monsieur," to the host: "Ein boesewicht, ganz sicher" "a scoundrel without doubt;" and then added, still lower, "Rob you here as soon as look at you." "Ah, postillion! comment va?" "much more like a brigand after all I know which I'd take you for." "Ver fluchte fraw" "how ugly the woman is."
Why should not the child form a concept of forte and piano, and so get away from the deadly monotony of mezzo? I have written some little descriptive piano pieces, and my small boy learned one of them to play for me. There is a closing phrase like this," and Mr. Ganz illustrated at the piano; "it is to be played forte, and is followed by a few notes to be touched very softly, like an echo.
I sometimes fear that in you the banker is inclined to exchange confidences with the chemist or even with the son of Papa who cashes a check. Eh?" Ganz cleared his throat. "In that case," he rejoined, "all you have to do is to ask him, when you meet him again at Bala Bala. And the English bank will no doubt be happy to accept the transfer of your account." Magin began to chuckle.
"Who the devil are you?" demanded Matthews, hotly. "The Emperor of Elam?" "Ha! I see you are acquainted with the excellent Adolf Ganz!" laughed Magin. "No," he went on in another tone. "His viceroy, perhaps. But as I was saying, it does not suit me to have you stopping here. I can see, however, that you have reason to be surprised, possibly annoyed, at my telling you so.
You t'ink you beat de Hedwig Rickmers too, Cabtin? You beat 'm mit dot putty leetle barque? You beat 'm mit de Hilda, nichtwahr?" "Well, no," said our old man. "I don't exactly say I beat the Rickmers, but if I had the luck o' winds that ye had, bedad, I'd crack th' Hilda out in a hundred an' five days too!" "Now, dot is not drue, Cabtin! Aber ganz und gar nicht!
That most mortifying view of his actions had doubtless been further enforced on her by others, the worst possible reading, to her own final discomfiture, of a not unfaithful heart. 128. *Sunday, August 24, Feast of St. Bartholomew. Jetzo, da ich ausgewachsen, Viel gelesen, viel gereist, Schwillt mein Herz, und ganz von Herzen, Glaub' ich an den Heilgen Geist.
Alvays de luck mit you, Cabtin!" "An' whatt ilse? . . . Sure, if I hadn't struck a bilt of calms an' had more than me share of head winds off the Horn, I'd have given ye a day or two mesilf!" "Ho! Ho! Ho! Das ist gut!" The green boat rocked with Schenke's merriment. He laughed from his feet up every inch of him shook with emotion. "Ho! Ho! Hoo! Das ist ganz gut.
For not only had he felt impelled to bid good-by a second time to his friend Adolf Ganz, prince among the merchants of Shustar. He had even postponed his voyage down the Karun long enough to make one more journey overland to Bala Bala. And he heard there, not without interest, the story of the short visit and the sudden flight of the young Englishman he had accidentally met on the river.
I can only conclude that some one frightened him away. Where do you suppose he hurries to? And do you think he will arrive in time?" Ganz opened his mouth; but if he intended to say something, he decided instead to draw his hand across his spare jaw. However, he did speak after all. "I notice that you at least do not hurry, Majesty! Do you fiddle while Rome burns?" "Ha!" laughed Magin.
