"Would you like to be called after a make-believe bear if you were a real one?" asked the Cub. "No, I guess not," said Kernel Cob. "Well then," said the Cub. "Excuse me," said Kernel Cob, for he liked to see anybody who had spunk. And they shook hands and were friends at once. "Who are you?" asked the Cub, "and what are you doing up here?"
Words big in the mouth serve their turn when there is no way of satisfying the intelligence. To be her master, however, one must not begin by writhing as her slave. The attempt to read an inscrutable woman allows her to dominate us too commandingly. So the lordly mind takes her in a hard grasp, cracks the shell, and drawing forth the kernel, says, "This was all the puzzle."
The speech or the writing must go forth to find the soil for the growth of its kernel of truth. We shall, therefore, with the full consciousness that perhaps more has been already said and written about Shakspere than about any other writer, yet venture to add to the mass by a few general remarks.
And, at first, while the shell of that third nut was being solemnly cracked by the reading of opening sentences of the will oh! how the heart of Pemrose jumped, like a nut on a hot shovel it did seem as if the kernel were going to be a rich one for the Thunder Bird.
Here and there on the plates, between joists, and over every window and door, were their nests, carefully made of wool, chewed from old garments and made fine, soft, and cosy. Their larders were full of cherry-stones, literally bushels on bushels of them, each with a little round hole gnawed in it and the kernel extracted.
Andrews or Stirling, as may seem fittest; while we leave old Seneschal Peter to keep the castle gates shut. If the Hielanders come, they'll find the nut too hard for them to crack, and the kernel gone, so you'd best burn no more daylight, maidens, but busk ye, as women will. 'Oh, Jamie, to speak so lightly of parting! sighed Eleanor.
In a way infinitely higher, yet the same at the root, for all is of God, He can give when the man asks what he could not give without, because in the latter case the man would take only the husk of the gift, and cast the kernel away a husk poisonous without the kernel, although wholesome and comforting with it.
Again I tell you it is not the insignificant private individual the mere man, with the man's selfish senses I wish to mate: it is the missionary." "And I will give the missionary my energies it is all he wants but not myself: that would be only adding the husk and shell to the kernel. For them he has no use: I retain them." "You cannot you ought not.
All gives token of rule and choice, and all has its meaning, 'Tis this uniform plan points out the Ruler to me. Brightly the glittering domes in far-away distance proclaim him. Out of the kernel of rocks rises the city's high wall. Into the desert without, the fauns of the forest are driven, But by devotion is lent life more sublime to the stone.
Of course, the 'kernel' was frequently taken in, and spent his money on those who had no claim to it; but the boys he helped were seldom a disappointment, any more than the boys of to-day sent out from the Gordon Boys' Homes founded in his memory.
