"And Dorothy?" he said; "you will leave her?" His excitement grew as he listened, until I had to threaten to stop to keep him quiet. But when I had done, he saw nothing but good to come of it. "'Od's life! Richard, lad, come here!" he cried. "Give me your hand. Why, you ass, you have won a thousand times over what you lost. She loves you! Did I not say so?
"I am but just back from Kent to learn of it, and looked to find you in bed." "Why, no, sir, I am not worried. I fought a duel in my own day, over a lass, it was." This time Grafton's smile was not forced. "Over a lass, was it?" he asked, and added in a tone of relief, "and how do you, nephew?" Mr. Carvel saved me from replying. "'Od's life!" he cried; "no, I did not say this was over a lass.
"'Od's, you may thank your own devilish thick head," said my Lord Comyn. "I should never have bothered my own about you were it not for her. Had it not been for her happiness do you imagine I would have picked you out of that crew of half-dead pirates in the Texel fort?" I must needs brush my cheek, then, with the sleeve of my night-rail.
"Egad, Richard," said my Lord, when we had got to my lodgings, "I made him change colour, did I not? Do you know how the little fool looks to me? 'Od's life, he looks hunted, and cursed near brought to earth. We must fetch this thing to a point, Richard. And I am wondering what Chartersea's next move will be," he added thoughtfully.
"A fine, a fine," cried the friar, "a fine, by the article of courtesy." "Od's life," said the baron, "shall I not call my own daughter Mawd? Methinks there should be a special exception in my favour." "It must not be," said Robin Hood: "our constitution admits no privilege."
"By the bye," he continued, pouring out his chocolate into the dish, "I sent a damned rake of a parson out there some years gone. Handsome devil, too. Never seen his match with the women, egad. 'Od's fish " he leered. And then added with an oath and a nod and a vile remark: "Married three times to my knowledge. Carried off dozen or so more. Some of 'em for me. Many a good night I've had with him.
"'Od's body," said a Spanish captain shut up in a fort which the French were attacking, and which he had been charged to defend, "we are being killed here by bolts that fall from heaven; go we and fight with men;" and he sallied from the fort with all his people, to go and take part in the general battle.
"If this is to be known, 'twill be better if I leave after; I should be observed if I went now." "As you will, madam," he answered, not displeased. "And now, you impudent villain," he began, turning to M. Beaucaire, but to fall back astounded. "'Od's blood, the dog hath murdered and robbed some royal prince!" He forgot Lady Mary's presence in his excitement. "Lay hands on him!" he shouted.
Ah! it would be worth stimulating our passions if it were only for the pleasure of remembering their effect; and all violent excitement should be indulged less for present joy than for future retrospection. My uncle's step was the first thing which intruded on my solitude. "Od's fish, my boy," said he, crying like a child, "this is fine work, 'Gad, so it is.
"No, no, my lad," broke in Jerome's hearty reassurance, "not a bit, just worn and starved out. Truly, boy, you had a rough adventure. By 'Od's blood, I'd hate to have the like! Has he taken any food Florine?" "Nothing but the wine, and a sup or two of broth.
