"Why; here is my friend!" said the King, as he put out his hand to me; and once more the dogs yapped at me from his side. He put his left hand out over their heads and pressed them down. "You must not bark at my friend Mr. Mallock," he said. "He is off to be a holy monk." For a moment I thought the King was making a mock of me; but it was not so. He was smiling at me very friendly.
He looked at me as if he could not believe his ears; but my Lord Dorset who was just behind came up and took him by the arm. "He is right," he said. "Mr. Mallock is quite right. Beg his pardon, I tell you." "Why the devil " began Sir Charles again, still not recognizing me. My Lord clapped him sharply on his hat, driving it over his eyes. "He is blind now, Mr. Mallock," he said, "in every sense.
W. H. Mallock, puts this quite plainly when he says that the God of theism "is represented as revealing himself in the universe, firstly, as the mind which animates and moves everything, secondly, as a purposing mind which is infinitely wise and powerful, and has created a perfect universe with a view to some perfect end; and lastly, as an ethical mind which out of all the things created by it, has selected men as the object of a preferential love.
"His Majesty will see you in a few minutes," he said, "but he goes to supper presently; and must not be detained. And there is something else that I must ask you first." I was all impatient to be gone; but impatience would not help me at all. "Mr. Mallock," he said, sitting down, "did you see any man following you from the Court? Or at the doors of the Palace?"
It was strange that not one living soul but Mallock had ever entered Newmark's abode. Curiosity had at first brought a few callers; but these were always met by the imperturbable servant with so plausible a reason for his master's absence that the visitors had departed without a suspicion that they had been deliberately excluded.
Grove to stand at the foot of the stairs that no one might come up without his knowledge. They bolted the door also, when we were within the chamber. Then we all sat down. "Now, Mr. Mallock," said Father Whitbread, "we know all that you know; and why you have been with us so much; and we thank you for your trouble." I said nothing; but I bowed to them a little.
Let Her Majesty come again to take her leave of the King; and then I will go in after for the same thing. While we are there, let the priest come, as Mr. Mallock has said " "Sir," said the Ambassador, "we must not have too many folks in this business " All this bargaining drove me near mad. Once more I broke in; and this time with more effect. "Sir," I said to the Duke, "I entreat you to hear me.
"Well: you must have it then. It is the queerest kindness I have ever done. Why do you ask it? Eh?" "Sir; you do not want my peroration over again!" His face darkened. "That is very like impudence, Mr. Mallock." "I do not mean it for such, Sir. It is the naked truth." "You think this is not a fitting place for her?" "I am sure it is not, Sir," I said very earnestly, "nor for any country-maid.
"We must be going to His Majesty, sir," he said presently, rising; and then he added as if by chance: "You are a Catholic, Mr. Mallock?" "Why, yes," I said: for there was no need of any concealment on the point of my religion.
There fell a silence when I said that; and I was wondering what in God's name I should say next, when the maid came in, and I fell to abusing of her with an oath or two. When she was gone away again to get me my supper, the gentleman in the fine dress at the head of the table leaned forward a little. "That, Mr. Mallock," he said, "is of what we were speaking. How did you know that?"
