“Tom was vexed, hearing these stories; which he did not believe the half on ’em; and more especial as he could not get man or boy to herd the cattle; all being afeared. So he wrote to Matlock, in Derbyshire, for his brother, Richard Pyke, a clever lad, and one that knew nout o’ the story of the old Squire walking.
And as the time went on, my father and the teachers instructed me in the ancient learning of our people, and in such matters appertaining to the Gods as it is meet that children should know. So I grew strong and comely, for my hair was black as the hair of the divine Nout, and my eyes were blue as the blue lotus, and my skin was like the alabaster within the sanctuaries.
Then there was a pause. 'I hope that was not heard, said Uncle Silas. Dudley walked to the window and stood there. 'Come, Dudley, you and Hawkes must use expedition. You know you must get that out of the way. 'I've done too much. I won't do nout; I'll not touch it. I wish my hand was off first; I wish I was a soger. Do as ye like, you an' Hawkes.
'But I don't care: he never gives me nout; and he gets money from Governor, as much as he likes, and I never a sixpence. It's a shame! So there was no great love between the only son and only daughter of the younger line of the Ruthyns.
"'No, nor blind, says she; 'as sharp as a needle, but she's gone quite aupy, and can't remember nout rightly; and Jack the Giant Killer, or Goody Twoshoes will please her as well as the king's court, or the affairs of the nation. "'And what did the little girl go away for, ma'am, that went on Friday last? My aunt wrote to my mother she was to go. "'Yes; she's gone. "'What for? says I again.
'I'll fool no more wi' ye, losing my time; I won't; but mind ye, I'll speak wi' Silas. And going away he put his hand to his crumpled wide-awake, and said to me with a surly difference 'Good evening, Miss Ruthyn good evening, ma'am and ye'll please remember, I did not mean nout to vex thee. And so he swaggered away, jerking and waddling over the sward, and was soon lost in the wood.
And we searched the mighty tomb and came to the great Hall of the Sarcophagus of granite, in which the Divine Rameses sleeps, and saw the mystic paintings on the walls: the symbol of the Snake unending, the symbol of Ra resting upon the Scarabæus, the symbol of Ra resting upon Nout, the symbol of the Headless men, and many others, whereof, being initiated, well I read the mysteries.
'I wanted a word wi' him; but I s'pose I'll hardly git in this hour or more; they're a praying and disputing, and a Bible-chopping, as usual. Ha, ha! But 'twon't hold much longer, old Wyat says, now that Uncle Austin's dead; there's nout to be made o' praying and that work no longer, and it don't pay of itself. 'O fie! For shame, you sinner! laughed Milly.
Therefore, O thou Unborn One, sleeping in the womb of Nout, I say this to thee! If thou indeed hast need of riches to save Khem from the foes of Khem, fear not and delay not, but tear me, the Osirian, from my tomb, loose my wrappings and rip the treasure from my breast, and all shall be well with thee; for this only I do command, that thou dost replace my bones within my hollow coffin.
I'm jolly glad to see ye, I am; no cattle going like ye, Maud. 'I think I must ask you to let go my hand, as I can't continue my work, I said, very stiffly, hoping to chill his enthusiasm a little. 'Anything to pleasure ye, Maud, 'tain't in my heart to refuse ye nout.
