'Now I hold he is the most conceited, affected fellow that I ever met, he continued with unusual energy. 'Ah! you men do not understand him, said Lady Monteagle, shaking her head. 'You cannot, she added, with a look of pity. 'I cannot, certainly, said Mr. Pole, 'or his writings either. For my part I think the town has gone mad.
