Candidate Britt waggled the monitory finger more energetically. "You are sheltering and ste'boying on a crazy man who is making the rest of the people in this town crazy. If they hadn't grown loony they'd ride him out over the line on a rail." The Prophet had arrived at Britt's shoulder.
Clocks, watches, ironwork, china, stuffs, brasses something of everything. A few pictures no great shakes as yet. But some day I may begin to buy them in earnest.

I'm the Fairy of Monitory Vision, of the cave of Drooping Fragrance, in the mount of Emitted Spring, within the confines of the Great Void. I preside over the voluptuous affections and sensual debts among the mortal race, and supervise in the dusty world, the envies of women and the lusts of man.
