Greenwood's rent-money has been accumulating four months, while I have been visiting you and Mrs. Bird; and the Greenwoods are willing to pay sixty dollars a month for the house still, even though times are dull; so I am hopelessly wealthy, but on the whole I am very glad. The old desire to do something, and be something, seems to have faded out of my life with all the other beautiful things.
But the Marquis had been ill when he had thus expressed his displeasure, and was now worse. It might be that the Marquis himself would never again visit Park Lane. As no positive limit had been fixed for Mr. Greenwood's departure from Trafford Park, there he remained, and there he intended to remain for the present.
He was warmed with the heat of poetic composition and wound up to heights of eulogy, though even NOW he could not forget the small Latin and less Greek! We now turn to Mr. Greenwood's views about the commendatory verses. Greenwood knows so little, and as the discussion merely adds dust to the dust, and fog to the mist of his attempt to disable Ben's evidence, I glance and pass by.
'I want to tell you the story of the place before we blow our candle out; it may help the cure. So when sundown was near, he and three of his native retainers started with me for the Hospice of Saint Lucy, carrying goodly packs every one. I was rather dubious about that expedition. 'I hope it's warm there, grumbled I to myself. 'If Greenwood's as strong as a horse, I am not so just now.
I do not want to "explain" Ben's words "away": I want to know how on earth Mr. Greenwood explains them away. I diligently search Mr. Greenwood's scriptures, asking How does he explain Ben's "memorable words" away? On p. 106 of The Shakespeare Problem Restated I seem to catch a glimmer of his method.
Why, are you aware that this man executed an agreement with his brother, consenting to receive a fifth share of the estate, and costs out of pocket, in complete acquittance of all claims? I have an abstract of the agreement, amongst Miss Halliday's Mrs. Hawkehurst's papers." After some further discussion, Valentine agreed to leave the whole matter in Mr. Greenwood's hands. Greek must meet Greek.
Noble teasingly, after a moment of silence. "Now, dearest aunty Meg, don't take sides with that odious man! If, in the distant years, you ever see me on the point of marrying well, simply mention Mr. Greenwood's name to me, and I 'll draw back even if I am walking up the middle aisle with an ivory prayer-book in my hand!" "Just to spite Mr. Greenwood; that would be sensible," said Margery.
Greenwood's name from the accounts of a boot-maker with whom he has never had any dealings. But why should it not appear if Will sold either his own plays, or those of the noble friend to whom he lent his name and personality to Henslowe? Why not?
I have analyzed it, and find that it does not contain above thirty-two and a half hundredths of of that which it ought to hold in a proportion of seventy-five per cent. of the whole." "Does it not?" "No; and it is impossible to obtain results while one is working with such fictitious materials. Look at that bit of grass at the bottom of Greenwood's Hill." "The fifteen-acre field?
"In grim array though Lewis' spectres rise, Still Skeffington and Goose divide the prize: And sure great Skeffington must claim our praise, For skirtless coats and skeletons of plays Renowned alike; whose genius ne'er confines Her flight to garnish Greenwood's gay designs, Nor sleeps with 'sleeping beauties' but anon In five facetious acts comes thundering on, While poor John Bull, bewildered with the scene, Stares, wondering what the devil it can mean; But as some hands applaud a venal few Rather than sleep, John Bull applauds it too."
