The Majestic and the sights thereof woke up the sleeping soul. Before her death Mrs. Malpas had told Nina many things about the vanished Lemuel; among others, the curious detail that he had two small moles one hairless, the other hirsute close together on the under side of his right wrist. Nina had seen precisely such marks of identification on the right wrist of Mr. Lionel Belmont.
She at least was likely to be attentive. Perhaps no medieval preacher except Bruno de Malpas would even have thought of alluding to the literal and primary meaning of the words. From the first moment of their joint existence, Jerusalem and Rome have been enemies and rivals.
"'I am not yet sure. Cardinal Malpas tells me that Felsenburgh gave his provisional consent on the previous day." "Very good. That is all you know, then?" "'I was called up an hour ago by Cardinal Ruspoli again. He tells me that he fears a riot in Florence; it will be the first of many revolutions, he says." "Does he ask for anything?" "'Only for directions."
Edward Bruce and Sir John Malpas, an English knight, were found lying one upon the other, slain by each other's hands in the deadly conflict.
"I do believe, thou moon-cast shadow of a man, if Bruno de Malpas were to walk in and ask for her, thou wouldst just say, `Here she is, O my Lord: do what thou wilt with thy slave." "I think, Licorice, it would break my heart. But we have let him break his for eighteen years. And if it came to breaking hers What wicked thing did he do, wife, that we should have used him thus?"
Sir Oliver's thoughts were still of his brother and Malpas, and so insistent were they that his own concerns were for the moment quite neglected; he was considering whether it was not his duty, after all, to attempt a word of remonstrance. At length he rose with a sigh and got to table. There he bethought him of his sick groom, and asked Nicholas for news of him.
"Malpas Malpas! Where in this case have I met with the name of Malpas?" "Inspector Dunbar may possibly have mentioned it to you in reference to the evidence of Mr. John Exel, M. P. Mr. Exel, you may remember"... "I have it!" cried Max; "Nom d'un nom! I have it! It was from Sir Brian Malpas that he had parted at the corner of Victoria Street on the night of the murder, is it not so?"
"Don't do that!" snapped the proprietor of the bowler; "you should know better! Who was that gentleman?" "Sir Brian Malpas, sir." "Sir Brian Malpas?" "Yes, sir." "And the other?" "I don't know, sir. I have never seen him before." "H'm!" grunted Detective-Sergeant Sowerby, walking across the road toward the Park with his hands thrust deep in his pockets; "I have! What the deuce is Max up to?
"I have heard of it," interjected Malpas "on the Rue St. Claude?" "That indeed is its situation," replied the other with surprise. "You know someone who is a member?" Sir Brian Malpas hesitated for ten seconds or more; then, crossing the room and reclosing the window, he turned, facing his visitor across the large room.
"If I were thy mother, I would hang myself from the first gable," hissed Licorice between her closed teeth. "I know thee, Bruno de Malpas, thou vile grandson of a locust! Nay, locust is too good for thee: they are clean beasts, and thou art an unclean. Thou hare, camel, coney, night-hawk, raven, lobster, earwig, hog!
