Still I would rather believe that I had misunderstood what was said it would otherwise be abominable. Outside, in the free sunshine, it is the busy day; in here it is always midnight's stillness.
"I shall take you with me, old boy," she confided, as she affectionately patted Midnight's neck. "It would not do to leave you behind. My, what a great time we shall have upon the level roads!" Then she fell to thinking about the joy of visiting different lands, and seeing strange sights. But she always associated her travels with Reynolds.
Midnight's hour is past, the moon has gone down, and in the Indian town there is darkness and silence. Every one is asleep, or seems to be; since no light shines either in toldo or tent, neither can a human figure be seen in the streets, or anywhere around.
But what was Alan's astonishment to read on the title page the following words: 'Merry Thoughts for Merry Men; or Mother Midnight's Miscellany for the Small Hours; and turning over the leaves, he was disgusted with profligate tales, and more profligate songs, ornamented with figures corresponding in infamy with the letterpress.
The country will watch eagerly for the result of this test, which we trust will be made at the Boston Theatre next week. "'Twas midnight's holy hour, and silence was brooding like a gentle spirit o'er the still and pulseless world." Not a sound was heard, except Robert's dog baying at a sorrel haired young man and a muchmussed girl, who were returning home from a suburban picnic.
"There is no message," she announced. "Why have you misjudged me? Are all men alike? Thank you for what you did for me to-day. Good-by." She again lifted her whip and it was about to fall upon Midnight's flank when Reynolds stepped forward and laid his right hand upon the horse's bridle. "Forgive me," he pleaded. "I meant nothing. I was merely joking. Perhaps I understand more than you realise.
Fear nothing, Madam, I'll be near you still. Er. Pray stay a little longer. Alcip. My Face has Horror in't pale and disfigur'd, And lean as Envy's self My Eyes all bloody, and my hanging lids Like Midnight's mischief, hide the guilty Balls, And all about me calls me Murderer: Oh horrid Murderer!
"You must go down to the stable with us to-morrow and look Midnight over, Judy," she suddenly remarked, then went on with an enthusiastic description of Dorothy's new treasure. While she thus dwelt at length upon Midnight's good points, in a room not far distant two girls were conducting a most confidential session. "How long do you think we ought to wait before well, you know?"
The hour approacheth: O man, thou higher man, take heed! this talk is for fine ears, for thine ears WHAT SAITH DEEP MIDNIGHT'S VOICE INDEED? It carrieth me away, my soul danceth. Day's-work! Day's-work! Who is to be master of the world? The moon is cool, the wind is still. Ah! Ah! Have ye already flown high enough? Ye have danced: a leg, nevertheless, is not a wing.
I need only remind you that purity must have its home in the heart, if it is to be the glory of the life. "Blessed are the pure in heart," is the Master's beatitude. "You are pure, you say; are your thoughts as white As the snow that falls with the midnight's hush? Could you see them blazoned in letters of light, For the world to read, and feel no blush?
