"I hoped you would not leave me for long, for it is not very often we enjoy an evening so entirely alone as to-night." "Leave you, dear old dad! Why, of course not!" She laughed gaily, as though nothing had occurred to disturb her peace of mind. "We were just about to look at those seals Professor Moyes sent you to-day, weren't we?
He knows what pleasure it is to me to decipher them and make out their history almost, alas! the only pleasure left to me, except you, my darling." "Professor Moyes adopts your opinion always, dad. He knows, as every other antiquary knows, that you are the greatest living authority on the subject which you have made a lifetime study that of the bronze seals of the Middle Ages."
"The night is very close, Gabrielle, dear. I fear we shall have thunder." "There was lightning only a moment ago," explained the girl. "Shall I put the casts into your collection, dad?" "Yes, dear. Moyes no doubt intends that I should keep them."
My uncle is cruising on her up the Norwegian Fiords. For us it is a change to be here, because we are so often afloat. We went across to New York in her last year and had a most delightful time except for one bad squall which made us all a little bit nervous. But Moyes is such an excellent captain that I never fear. The crew are all North Sea fishermen father will engage nobody else.
"Never wrote a verse in my life," says the Colonel, laughing, and stroking his own. "For I remark so many literary gentlemen with that decoration. The Jew with the beard, as you call him, is Herr von Lungen, the eminent hautboy-player. The three next gentlemen are Mr. Moyes and Mr. Cropper, who are both very hairy about the chin.
It was a wonderful sound. Not like the tempest of noise that may be heard at the breeding-season at Lundy Island, and at many other stations where birds of several species mix their various voices the yammeris and the yowlis, and skrykking, screeking, skrymming scowlis, and meickle moyes and shoutes, of old Dunbar's wonderful onomatopoetic lines.
Some Voluntarists, hard pressed by facts, try to make 'will' cover the whole of conscious and subconscious life, with the exception of logical reasoning, which is excluded as a sort of pariah! Mgr. Moyes, in The Nineteenth Century, December, 1907. The life of Newman was divided into two nearly equal portions by his change of religion in October 1845.
H. Moyes, of Edinburgh, relative to experiments made with the pile, we find the following passage: "When the column in question had reached the height of its power, its sparks were seen by daylight, even when they were made to jump with a piece of carbon held in the hand." On page 214 he describes and figures an apparatus for taking the galvano-electric spark into fluid and aeriform substances.
But it is really a very beautiful specimen, done at a time when the art of seal-engraving was at its height. No engraver could to-day turn out a more ornate and at the same time bold design. Moyes is really very fortunate in securing this. You must write, my dear, and ask him how these latest treasures came into his hands."
