I conquered peoples, and organised nations and knit empires, and gave periods of peace to vast territories. And the arts of peace flourished, and you multiplied yourself in divers ways. You were priest and singer and dancer and musician. You expressed your fancies in colours and metals and marbles. You wrote epics and lyrics ay, as you to-day write lyrics, Dane Kempton. And I multiplied myself.
If the moth falls in love with the star, the moth must suffer.... I am cowardly; I am weak; I am what you will; but I have more than I can bear. Life is too hard too hard. To-morrow I shall be dead. You will be the only person to know why I died, and you will keep my secret. 'Oh, the pity of it the pity of it! murmured Mrs. Kempton. 'I wonder whether I ought to have shown him Mary's letter.
Well, he was there, an' his goggles nearly cracked when he sawr the money paid two points over the market price, an' all." "Sometimes one spots a winner by chanst," observed Simmonds judicially. "An' that reminds me. Last night a fella tole me there was a good thing at Kempton to-day.... Now, what was it?"
Our captains sit in council, our heroes take the field, our fighting men are buckling on their harness, our martyrs have already died, and you are blind to it, blind to it all! We have no poets these days, and perforce we are singing with our hands. The walking delegate is a greater singer and a finer singer than you, Dane Kempton.
He was very seriously explaining something to the man who sat with him and whom he addressed as Governor, a merry-looking person with a stubby gray mustache and little hair, who seemed not too attentive to the director.

Yet was there in his softness an imperiousness, commanding me to be other than I am, forbidding me the right to crave in secret what I had made bold to ask for openly. His man was stronger than my woman, and I leapt to him again. "My husband," I whispered, my hands in his. This, even after I understood, dearest Mr. Kempton. It is a sorry tangle. If only one could suit feeling to theory!
You would rest content and assured, and I regret your assurance. Always yours, DANE KEMPTON. THE RIDGE, BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA. December 6, 19 . No, I am not in love. I am very thankful that I am not. I pride myself on the fact. I am arranging my life so that I may get the most out of it, while the one thing to disorder it, worse than flood and fire and the public enemy, is love.
During the racing season Baxendale generally managed to avoid golf and go down to Sandown or Kempton or Gatwick instead; he said he got just as much air and exercise there, and there was always a chance of paying your expenses. Sometimes he succeeded, as he was very careful; but whenever he failed he would say he'd chuck it up altogether, the game wasn't worth the candle.
Ever wholly yours, DANE KEMPTON. STANFORD UNIVERSITY. December 15, 19 . Over and ended. It shall be as I said last night. Herbert, there is no call for anger; believe me, there is not. I am doing what I cannot help doing. You have not changed, but my faith in you has, and I cannot pretend to a happiness I do not feel.
Hurlingham and Ranelagh, Maidenhead and Henley, Eton and Oxford, Sandhurst and Aldershot, Piccadilly in the season, Simla in the heats, the results for Kempton Park and Newmarket Races of all these they talked, with rhino and elephant shooting and the big battues of pheasants now taking place in the Home Midlands and up North.
