She has made herself a laughing-stock since then. That is settled, Lewin" with a nod to the milliner "the silver fleurs de luces for the wedding mantua. And now be quick with your samples." All Angela's remonstrances were as vain to-day as they had been on the occasion of her first acquaintance with Mrs. Lewin.

What happened afterwards he knew not; but when he recovered full consciousness, he found himself stretched, with aching limbs and throbbing head, upon a couch in a monastic room, with a richly-painted and gilded ceiling, with shields at the corners emblazoned with the three luces of Whalley, and with panels hung with tapestry from the looms of Flanders, representing divers Scriptural subjects.

All his successors gone before him have done't, and all his ancestors that come after him may; they may give the dozen white luces in their coat. . . . Shallow. The council shall hear it; it is a riot. Evans. It is not meet the council hear of a riot; there is no fear of Got in a riot; the council, hear you, shall desire to hear the fear of Got, and not to hear a riot; take your vizaments in that.

But say us, Arthur, soon, and send word to Rome; we shall thine errand bear to Luces our emperor, if thou wilt acknowledge that he is king over thee, and if thou wilt his man become, and acknowledge him for lord, and do right to the emperor on account of Frolle the king, whom thou slewest with wrong at Paris, and now holdest all his land with un-right in thy hand.

Arthur took his writ in hand, with hostile words, and delivered it to the men, that had brought the errand, and afterwards he caused them to be clothed with each pomp, with the noblest garments that he had in bower, and bade them fare soon to Luces of Rome, and he would come after them as quickly as he might.

The emperor heard say sooth words, how his men were taken, and how his folk was eke slain.

This visit gave me great pleasure; it really brought Justice Shallow freshly before my eyes; the luces in his arms "which do become an old coat well" were not more plainly portrayed in his own armorials in the hall-window than was his person in my mind's eye.

"Mind you don't get into a hole, Fred!" cried Bald. "Mind the big luces!" shouted Bert. "There's a monster lives among those reeds." "Oh, they all swam away when Father Swythe fell in," cried Red.

"They played bridge afterward," Fanny said, referring, he gathered, to the occasion he had missed. "That is, the Rodmans and the Luces did, and I sat around. People are too selfish for anything!" Her voice grew sharper. "They stayed until after twelve, just because Borden was nineteen dollars back at one time. And they drank all that was left of your special Mount Vernon.
