But this thought, almost shocking to the modern mind and seeming altogether sacrilegious to most students of Greek philosophy, need not here detain us; neither have we much concern in the present connection with any part of the teaching of the martyred philosopher. For the historian of metaphysics, Socrates marks an epoch, but for the historian of science he is a much less consequential figure.
I had been very cool to him since the night in the library when I was publicly staked and martyred, and he was almost cringing when I opened the door. "What is it now?" I asked cruelly. "Has Bella tired of it already, or has somebody else a rash?" "Don't be a shrew, Kit," he said. "I don't want you to do anything. I only when did you see Harbison last?"
Poor child! how well do I remember her little prayer for the martyred saint, for so they styled the murdered king, which she never missed saying each morning when the mass was over in the chapel of the château.
The Tyrian dye, the rich glossy hue of silk, martyred and dissembled into every colour, which are now esteemed so fine and magnificent, were unknown to the innocent simplicity of that age; yet, bedecked with more becoming leaves and flowers, they outshone the proudest of the vaindressing ladies of our times, arrayed in the most magnificent garbs and all the most sumptuous adornings which idleness and luxury have taught succeeding pride.
"I?" replied he, "I am not one of yours; if I rose up, it was not with any intention of going with you, it was to embrace those who were about to go into Germany, and who, I am certain, will all be martyred."
"But it is very odd that she should have let you learn to ride, which one would have thought she would have dreaded most of all." "That was because she thought it right, he says. Poor mamma, she said to him, 'Geoffrey, if you think it right that Fred should begin to ride, never mind my folly. He says that he thinks it cost her as much resolution to say that as it might to be martyred.
Praise be to God! The light of unity and love is shining in these faces. These spiritual susceptibilities are the real fruits of heaven. The Báb and Bahá’u’lláh over sixty years ago proclaimed the glad tidings of universal peace. The Báb was martyred in the Cause of God.
In another moment it was settled. Billy, looking fretty and sulky, said: "Good-bye, Aunt Gertrude! I'm sorry for this, but it's not my fault!" Frank Whittaker almost bodily lifted his somewhat befuddled guest into the car, the door of the runabout went home with a bang. Billy snatched the wheel, and Clarence, with an attempt at a martyred expression, sank back in his seat.
All over Europe the same legend of the murdered apprentice and the martyred child reappears under different names so that in effect the verification of the tale is none at all, because it is unanimous; is too narrow, because it is too impossibly broad.
On her right hand stands St. Paul, on her left St. Peter; beyond St. Peter and St. Paul, St. John the Baptist holding a cross, and St. John the Evangelist holding a book; and beyond these again, St. Domino and St. Venantius, two martyred saints, who perished in Dalmatia, and whose relics were brought out of that country by the founder of the chapel, John IV., himself a Dalmatian by birth.
