A modern teacher would have said, in our jargon, that the Pharisee had no sense of proportion and no one would have thought the remark worth remembering. But Jesus' treatment of the subject reveals his own mind in quite a number of aspects. It was true; Euergetes is a well-known kingly title, but the explanation that it was the reward for strenuous use of monarchic authority was new.
Such was the history of Serbia up to the date when I plunged into it and found it on the verge of a crisis. For Leagues within a State are ever pernicious to Monarchic. Early in 1903 I received an invitation to stay with certain of the partisans of the Karageorgevitches in Serbia. The "something" that was to happen had not yet come to pass.
We're coming to the ground floor." "Let's go along with her, Miss Rolls, and see her home," suggested Rags. "I want to know whether the blouse department beats that Monarchic room with all the mirrors what?" Ena's face showed distress. Her eyes actually appealed to the cause of it to save her, and Win was only too ready to respond. "Please don't come," she protested earnestly. "It wouldn't do.
Miss Tyndale pitifully questioned, for just then the ship was sliding down the side of a wave as big as a millionaire's house. "Yes, it would be worse if we were wearing our waists slender this year," said Win. "Down, down, wallow, wallow, jump!" was the program the Monarchic carried out for the twentieth time in half as many minutes. Slender waists!
Then it was as if her mind separated itself from the rest of her and began to run back along the path she had travelled with Knight since the hour of their first meeting. It ran looking on the ground, seeking and picking up things dropped and almost forgotten. Knight had not been pleased when the Countess de Santiago talked to him of their being together on the Monarchic.
The suggestion closed Annesley's mouth by making her afraid that she was turning into a suspicious creature, like jealous brides she had read about. She determined to be silent as a self-punishment, and firmly steered the Monarchic into a backwater of her thoughts, while Knight talked of the Valley House party and their credulous superstition.
They are snapshots caught not with a camera, but with an eye and pencil which were almost as quick of the life of that old monarchic France as it was seen by the English traveller, posting along the great high-roads, or taking his walk through the town.
The crime of having trodden out the last spark of his country's liberties, and of having converted its monarchic government into pure despotism, is that for which Richelieu is most generally condemned. But the state of anarchy which he removed was license, not liberty.
Yet this does not in itself go much beyond the old monarchic doctrine of Prerogative, as a corrective for the slowness and want of immediate applicability of mere legal processes in cases of state emergency; and it is worth noticing again and again that in spite of the shriekings of reaction, the few atrocities of the Terror are an almost invisible speck compared with the atrocities of Christian churchmen and lawful kings, perpetrated in accordance with their notion of what constituted public safety.
Our author married the daughter of Sir William Erskine, Baronet, cousin german to the earl of Marr, then Regent of Scotland; by her he had one son, who died his Majesty's Resident in Nova Scotia in the life time of his father, and left behind him a son who succeeded his grandfather in the title of earl of Stirling. His lordship is author of four plays, which he stiles Monarchic Tragedies, viz.
