You said all I wanted in about fifty words, just now. I begin to see. It may be just because I might do something, that I haven't. Aunt Euphrasia, I've done being a boy, and playing with reins. I'm going to be a man, and do some real driving. Do you know, I think I'd better not go to Europe with my father?" "I don't know that," returned Miss Kirkbright.
It was not needful that she should know the very whole about Rachel or the Argenters; only enough was said to make plain the real companionship that was coming, and the mutual help that it might be; enough of the story to make Hazel cry out joyfully, "Why, Desire! Miss Kirkbright! She's another! She belongs!"
When God has done his work of forgiving, there is where it will be, I think; and the Son of the woman shall set his heel upon its head." "I wish I could see what lies behind this," said Mr. Kirkbright.
"How busy she will be!" was Sylvie's next remark, made after a pause in which she realized to herself the news, and received also a little suggestion from it. "Yes, pretty busy. But such preparations are made easily in these days." "Won't there be ever so many little things of that sort to be done?" asked Sylvie, signifying the parcel which Miss Kirkbright held lightly in her fingers.
Christopher Kirkbright read the Collect, Epistle, and Gospel for the day; the Prayer, that God "who had given his only Son to die for our sins, and to rise again for our justification, would grant them so to put away the leaven of malice and wickedness, that they might always serve Him in pureness and truth"; the Assurance of "the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith in the Son of God," who came "not by water only, but by water and blood"; and that "the spirit and the water and the blood agree in one," in our redemption; the Story of that First Day of the week, when Jesus came back to his disciples, after his resurrection, and said, "Peace be unto you," showing them his hands and his side.
Then, without letting him answer, she turned swiftly round again, and sprang up the rugged stairway of the shelving rock. But she had not uninvited him, after all. They found Miss Kirkbright and Sylvie waiting for them at the red house. It was a quaint structure, with a kind of old, foreign look about it.
The speaker's face flushed and glowed; Hilary Vireo, always glad and strong in look and bearing, was grandly joyful when the power of the gospel he had to preach came upon him; the gospel of a full, perfect, and unstinted hope. "Is that what you tell your simple people?" asked Christopher Kirkbright, fixing deeply eager eyes upon him. "Yes; just that. In simplest words, changed and repeated often.
"Out here could be open-air service in the beautiful weather, to the sound of that continual organ." "You have thought of it, too," exclaimed Desire. "Of what?" asked Mr. Kirkbright, turning toward her. "Of what you might make this place." "What would you make of it?" They were a little apart, by themselves, again. It kept happening so.
That must be for the new houses. They will soon make all those things here. Mr. Kirkbright has large contracts for brick, already. He has been sending down specimens. They say the clay is of remarkably fine quality." "We shall have to get by that thing, presently," said Rodney. "I hope the horse will take it well." "Are you trying to frighten me?" asked Sylvie, smiling. "I'm used to these roads.
She had got drawn in to the contemplation of the scheme, and had begun to weigh and arrange, involuntarily, its details, forgetting that she "knew not anything." Mr. Kirkbright smiled. "Yes, I see where you are," he said, "I had arrived at precisely the same point myself. But the 'right people at the other end? Who should they be? Who shall send me my villagers, my workers?
