In the course of ages thousands of such sequences must have been observed, and these, handed down from one generation to another, would shape themselves into a handbook of magic.
I feel that a whole chain of people depend on me. Since I wrote the above words this morning, Wiener has taken a decided turn for the worse. I have been reading the "Medical Handbook," with reference to the remarks on amputation, gangrene, etc., and I have also been examining his leg. The poor devil is in great pain, and there is no doubt that mortification has set in, as was indeed inevitable.
And it was even as he foretold. I find, on looking over the tattered pages of a handbook, these notes: Oct. 6. Ben Gillam and Governor Brigdar this day sent back to New England. There will be great complaints against us in the English court before we can reach London. Nov. 11. Sailed for France in the French frigate. Dec. 18. Reach Rochelle hear of M. Colbert's death. Jan. 30.
Keene, who discusses the question at length in his "Handbook to Delhi," accepts this suggestion. Neither of these authorities seem to have been aware of the existence of the marks of the feet on the platform in front of the Agra Hathi Pol.
Much in his short life he had found hard to bear; but never anything so appalling as this! If only he might cry a little! "Sir Gawain, he c-cried," he remembered, "when he found out he was f-fightin' his own b-brother. And Sir G-Gareth, he c-cried too." Also, no law of the twelve in the Handbook forbade a scout to weep.
Murphy handed over his $10 in bail, received his receipt slip and stepped to one side to wait for John. "Gallant John Gallant," said John, following Murphy's lead. "Ten bucks," said the desk sergeant. "No, I mean what am I arrested for?" "Oh, you're particular, are you? Well, it's loitering in a gambling resort and playing the handbook.
It is only by entering into the psychology of the period that we can estimate its attitude towards the poetry written by the pioneers themselves. Few of the New England churches could sing more than half-a-dozen tunes, and a pitch-pipe was for a long time the only musical instrument allowed. But the men and women who used it as a handbook of devotion sang it with their hearts aflame.
Professor Becker's Handbook of Rome, as well as his Gallus and Charicles shed much light on manners and customs. Dyer's History of the City of Rome is the fullest description of its wonders that I have read. Niebuhr, Bunsen, and Platner, among the Germans, have written learnedly, but also have created much doubt about things supposed to be established.
No, he would not lie, though not so long ago, before he met the scoutmaster, and read the Handbook, he would not have hesitated; indeed, he would have rejoiced in cheating Barber, and complimented himself on thinking up such a clever story. Suppose, however, that he were to sell the flowers for a dollar, keep the money, and not return to the flat at all?
So strong is this instinct that it is practised under confinement, and Mr. Gould, 'Handbook to the Birds of Australia, vol. i. pp. 444, 449, 455.
