"Hush! hush, wife!" answered Master Gresham; "such words are dangerous. We have seen many sad things done in the Netherlands. If we would be safe, now we have come to England, we must hold our peace." The procession having moved onward towards the east, the travellers proceeded on their way, and in a short time were comfortably lodged in Master Gresham's own mansion in Lombard Street.
It meant burn, slay, destroy, or drive out of the realm, all who oppose the religion of the priests of Rome crush out with an iron heel every spark of liberty of conscience, of freedom of thought, of Protestant principles. Ernst found afterwards that Master Gresham's thoughts had agreed with his, and that he anticipated fearful evils for the people of the Netherlands.
They had just crossed London Bridge on their way to Master Gresham's house in Lombard Street, when a concourse of people was seen coming up along the road from the west. There were troops with their halberds glittering in the sun, banners waving, with trumpets sounding, horsemen in rich armour, and horse soldiers with lances and streamers.
"Goodness me, I've simply got to be going." "Where?" She made a wry face: "Hazel Gresham's. Honestly, women get queer when they grow up get older than twenty. Hazel has been acting so peculiarly lately " "That's natural, isn't it, Miss Rogers? Her fiancé killed " "Oh! shucks! I don't mean that. That wouldn't be queer. But there's something else bothering her.
George's father had witnessed the opening for worship of a portion of the cathedral five years before, and soon the stupendous dome, which was beginning to tower high above the city, would be finished.

Master Elliot, when he heard that I was wounded, sent a litter, and had me conveyed to Master Gresham's new house in Bishopsgate Street, which had been built during my absence from England. Lady Anne had just come up to London, and received me with especial kindness.
An expression of utter bewilderment crossed young Gresham's face. Then he started forward angrily: "Why are you lying to me " "Easy, Gresham easy there. I am not lying to you." He saw Garry's eyes dart to the door behind which the sister was seated. "What did she give herself up for, Carroll?" "For killing Roland Warren." Gresham took a firm grip on himself.
He would not himself communicate directly with Master Gresham, but he desires you, as you would wish to show your gratitude to your patron, as well as to him, to hasten forth to Master Gresham's house: tell him to boot and saddle, and to hie him with all speed to his country house at Intwood. Danger threatens him. The fate his old friend and patron has lately suffered may be his.
Every five minutes for two hours after the first reading of Mr. Gresham's note, she took it up, laid it down, and argued the matter pro and con to Caroline. A long and loud knocking at the door came to Caroline's relief: it was repeated with imperious impatience. "Who is it, my dear? look out of the window, but don't let yourself be seen."
