With such a friend as Mirabel, he could not deem himself quite so unlucky as in the morning. If he were fortunate, and fortunate so unexpectedly, in this instance, he might be so in others. A vague presentiment that he had seen the worst of life came over him.

'Tis the best fellow that ever lived; but he is under my guidance, and I shall be very particular to whom he is introduced. 'Lord! I wonder who he can be! said the young man. 'I say, Mirabel, you will be done on Goshawk, if you don't take care, I can tell you that. 'Thank you, good Coventry; if you like to bet the odds, I will take them.

In the distance, the misty heights of Surrey, and the bowery glades of Kensington. It was the day after the memorable voyage from Richmond. Eminent among the glittering throng, Count Mirabel cantered along on his Arabian, scattering gay recognitions and bright words. He reined in his steed beneath a tree, under whose shade was assembled a knot of listless cavaliers.

Among them were Davy and Dora. Davy sat with Milty Boulter, who had been going to school for a year and was therefore quite a man of the world. Dora had made a compact at Sunday School the previous Sunday to sit with Lily Sloane; but Lily Sloane not coming the first day, she was temporarily assigned to Mirabel Cotton, who was ten years old and therefore, in Dora's eyes, one of the "big girls."

Thus, Saillans, the third stage, was taken by the Protestant leader Mirabel, and the Catholic Gordes, in 1574, and its fortifications were razed by the Duc de Mayenne in 1581.

'Between two and three thousand. The Count Mirabel gave a whistle. 'I brought five hundred, which I have. We must get the rest somehow or other. 'My dear Mirabel, you are the most generous fellow in the world; but I have troubled my friends too much. Nothing will induce me to take a sou from you.

Celimene is undisputed mistress of the same attribute in the Misanthrope; wiser as a woman than Alceste as man. In Congreve's Way of the World, Millamant overshadows Mirabel, the sprightliest male figure of English comedy. But those two ravishing women, so copious and so choice of speech, who fence with men and pass their guard, are heartless!

Unluckily the narrator, in this collection, is an esprit fort, and is assiduous in attempts to display his wit. We have not a plain unvarnished tale, but something more like a facetious leading article based on a trial Honore Mirabel was a labouring lad, under age, near Marseilles.

Would you have said that to Emily, if she was as anxious as I am to see you in your right place in the world?" "I should have answered her exactly as I have answered you." "She will never embarrass you, Mr. Mirabel, by being as sincere as I am. Emily can keep her own secrets." "Is she to blame for doing that?" "It depends on your feeling for her." "What feeling do you mean?"

You are in love with her, Miles; and you are a better man than I thought you. Does that express my opinion?" Mirabel took her wasted hand, and kissed it gratefully. "What a position I am in!" he said. "To love her as I love her; and, if she knew the truth, to be the object of her horror to be the man whom she would hunt to the scaffold, as an act of duty to the memory of her father!"
