They have no concern for their faithful Judases, they care only for their shekels only for them." And after a sullen silence, he added: "And I pity that man the more I think of him. I didn't intend to kill him didn't want to!" "Enough, Andrey," said Pavel severely. "You happened to knock against something rotten, and it fell to pieces," added the mother in a low voice.
There are moments when I feel that the Shylocks, the Judases, and even the Devil, are broken spokes in the great wheel of good which shall in due time be made whole. It seems strange that my first reading of Shakespeare should have left me so many unpleasant memories.
They were small dolls, with sticky pink-painted faces and sticky black-painted hair, and they were dressed in tissue paper. The hands of the Judases were stuck straight out on each side and from one hand to the other there was a string stretched. Fire-crackers were hung along on this string. When these fire-crackers go off, one after another, they set fire to the Judas and burn him up.
When we said our farewells the women cried. In their Godspeed the note of friendship rang true and honest and sincere. These people had proved themselves in a hundred ways. In civilization, where the selfish instinct governs so generally, there are too many Judases. On the frontier, in spite of the rough exterior of the people, you find real men and women.
Swine, that you are Judases, who have sold a good cause for dirty money! How much did you get? Five and twenty kroner, eh? And out there they are loyally starving, so that all of us yes, you too can live a little more like human beings in the future!" "You hold your jaw!" said the big smith. "You've no wife and children you can easily talk!"
The large Judases in exploding go to pieces, first losing one arm, then a leg, followed by another arm, until at last the body bursts into fragments, at which one universal shout rends the air. The small Judases keep up their snapping and explosions for an hour or more. At last Judas is utterly demolished, literally done for.
Pedro's boat went back and forth every day between the hacienda and the town, carrying wood and all kinds of supplies. He was a friend of Pancho's and that was how they were so fortunate as to be invited to go with him. Doña Teresa got breakfast very quickly, and while they were eating it they heard a voice calling, "Here, buy your Judases at six and twelve cents your Judases."
"A strike?" "For one kopeck?" "Why not? Why not strike?" "We'll all be discharged!" "And who is going to do the work?" "There are others!" "Who? Judases?" "Every year I would have to give three rubles and sixty kopecks to the mosquitoes!" "All of us would have to give it!" Pavel walked down and stood at the side of his mother. No one paid any attention to him now.
People will have their miracles, their stories, their heroes and heroines and saints and martyrs and divinities to exercise their gifts of affection, admiration, wonder, and worship, and their Judases and devils to enable them to be angry and yet feel that they do well to be angry.
Oh! how we long for the day when we shall meet such miserable Judases face to face, and spit upon them before the nations; and how willing we are to admit that we should rather tomorrow shake the manly hand of the English Joe Sheard of Toronto, open enemy and all as he is, than touch the vile, clammy paw of such repulsive creatures as compose the snake-like breed of which this same paltry and sordid trimmer is a true representative.
