"Buy thou it, an' thou canst," said Maude, rocking the child to and fro, while one or two tears fell upon its little frock. "For me, I thank our Lord that He hath paid down the price." She rose, for the child was beginning to cry, and walked to the window to try and engage its attention. "A Gospeller, by my troth!" whispered Isabel, with a shrug of her shoulders.
It is safer to say little of the theological scheme of the Puritan ministers, lest the present writer be pronounced a Wanton Gospeller, and have no tithingman to take his part. But however it may be with the regular standards of theology of that period, every one could find a sufficient variety to suit him among its heresies.
I have a poor friend who is a very harmless sort of parson but I have heard him talk of a bit of ceremonial with tears in his eyes. 'It was exquisite, exquisite, he will say, 'the celebrant wore a cope a bit, I believe of genuine pre-Reformation work of course remounted and the Gospeller and Epistoller had copes so perfectly copied that it would have been hard to say which was the real one.
"By my hand, friend Woodcock," said the page, "though I know you for a hardy gospeller, that fear neither saint nor devil, yet, if I were you, I would not sing your profane songs in this valley of Glendearg, considering what has happened here before our time."
So this done should not serve our turn. Father, is there any means that you can devise to break this marriage?" "The priest that wed them is a Gospeller," returned the Archbishop with a peculiar smile. "A priest in full orders," objected the King, "of good life and unblemished conversation. Even you, holy Father, so fertile in wise plans, shall scarce, methinks, be able to lay finger on him."
It was the wanton gospeller. A sad and quiet smile flitted across the mild visage of Roger Williams, but Endicott, in the excitement of the moment, shook his sword wrathfully at the culprit an ominous gesture from a man like him. "What hast thou to do with conscience, thou knave?" cried he. "I said liberty to worship God, not license to profane and ridicule him.
Drake's father was a zealous Protestant, a 'hot gospeller, much given to preaching; and when he was cast up by the storm on what is now Drake's Island, just off Plymouth, he was glad to take passage for Kent.
He was religiously a Gallio, not a Gospeller; but he was politically a sturdy Englishman, and no coward. Strange to say, no harm came to him. Nay, is it strange, when we read, "Them that honour Me, I will honour," and "Whosoever shall lose his life for My sake and the Gospel's, the same shall save it?" There were no longer any sermons preached at the Cross that a Gospeller cared to hear.
You coming long? Whisper, who the sooty hell's the johnny in the black duds? Hush! Sinned against the light and even now that day is at hand when he shall come to judge the world by fire. Pflaap! Ut implerentur scripturae. Strike up a ballad. Then outspake medical Dick to his comrade medical Davy. Christicle, who's this excrement yellow gospeller on the Merrion hall? Elijah is coming!
Owen Lovejoy, the life-long apostle of Abolitionism, the fervid gospeller of Emancipation, was dead; and it seemed almost the irony of Fate that, at such a time, when Emancipation most needed all its friends to make it secure, its doughtiest champion should fall. But perhaps the eloquent tributes paid to his memory, in the Halls of Congress, helped the Cause no less.
