The celestial shield and crest still remained in little colour. Mike saw John's hands moving over the key-board, and his soul went out in worship of that soul, divided from the world's pleasure, self-sufficing, alone; seeking God only in his home of organ fugue and legended pane. He understood the nobleness and purity which was now about him it seemed impossible to him to return to Kitty.

It was to be expected that the reverend gentleman, who loved to produce a sensation, would avail himself of the excitable state of his audience to sweep the key-board of their emotions, while, as we may, say, all the stops were drawn out.

SIZE AND CONFIGURATION OF BRAIN, or the theory of the localization in different organs of the brain of the corresponding faculties of the mind. THE BRAIN is the key-board of the body. It is an error to claim that it is the exclusive organ of intelligence.

And mechanically Phina's hand sought the key-board and rippled along a series of sinking sevenths, which spoke of a plaintive sadness, unintelligible perhaps to the nephew of William W. Kolderup. For such was this young man, such was the relationship he bore towards the master of the house.

"Perhaps it may be the beginning," Cecilia answered, and their eyes met for a moment. "If it amuses you, I will try," said Lamberti, looking away, and sitting down before the keys. "You must be easily pleased if you can listen to me," he added, laughing, as he struck a few chords again. Cecilia sat down in a low chair between him and the window, at the left of the key-board.

And when it comes, you and I will be sick if we're not there yes, even you with your millions, Byng." With moist eyes Byng grasped the hand of the rough-hewn comrade of the veld, and shook it warmly. "England has got on your nerves, Barry," he said, gently. "But we're all right in London. The key-board of the big instrument is here."

Neither of these has any time to think about the melodious relation of the tones; it is quite as much as they can do to find their place on the key-board or the string. Rousseau's scheme, or any similar one, fails to supply the clear and obvious index to pitch supplied by the old system.

What she had in mind was one of the "Moments Musicaux" of Schubert a strain of exquisite melody, which ceased too soon. Cecily sat for a few moments at the key-board after she had finished, her head bent; then she came and stood before Miriam. "Do you like it?" There was no answer.

But her eyes kept steadily on the key-board, and her fingers unfalteringly followed the notes.

As to the ear, it would take up too much space to describe its internal structure; it must suffice to say that in its interior there is an immense series of minute rod-like bodies, termed fibres of Corti, having the appearance of a key-board, and each fibre being connected with a filament of the auditory nerve, these nerves being like strings to be struck by the keys, i.e. by the fibres of Corti.
