I followed him to his chamber, and declared what had happened that afternoon of Master Garret's escape. Then he sent for one Master Sumner and Master Bets, fellows and canons there. In the meantime he gave me a very godly exhortation, praying God to give us all the wisdom of the serpent and the harmlessness of doves, for we should shortly have much need thereof.
She had stabbed that young thing, sitting pale and cold before her; and no sooner was the deed done than her strong, deep nature yearned over her victim as it had never done to Hector Garret's girl wife, in the first rosy flush of her thoughtless gladness. "Nothing more."
Had I known that Master Clarke had refused, God helping me, I would have refused also; for surely never was there a man who had so fully the mind of the Lord Jesus as John Clarke." Garret's glance fell before that burning gaze. He too had noted that Clarke was not amongst the penitents, and it had cut like a knife into his heart.
Dalaber's store was found "hid with marvellous secresy;" and in one student's desk a duplicate of Garret's list the titles of the volumes with which the first "Religious Tract Society" set themselves to convert England. Information of all this was conveyed in haste by Dr.

He knew not whither to turn, or where he might go with safety. The arm of the cardinal was long. He had eyes that reached far and wide. All Garret's own haunts were likely to be closely watched. The man felt the fire of zeal burning hotly within him. He looked up into the heavens above him, and he felt as though a great work yet lay before him. He broke out into songs of praise and thanksgiving.
No word of explanation, no reproach for folly and desperation, no recital of his labours, no information regarding others, but strange from Hector Garret's stern lips, and sweet as strange murmurs of fondness and devotion: "Sweet Leslie! mine only mine always!"
