I know exactly, 'cause it was the day my ole 'oman's step-father's granny's funeral sarmont was preached; and that was on a Thursday, twenty-sixth of October, an' I come up to 'tend it." "Is it not customary to preach the funeral sermons on Sunday?"
But it is when we consider the first of Professor Oman's reasons for ascetic practices that we perceive how entirely the genius of Judaism is foreign to Hindu and most other forms of asceticism. To reach communion with God, the Jew goes along the road of happiness, not of austerity. He serves with joy, not with sadness.
I went up w'at ez called de nine mile cut neah Tullahoma, en axed a 'oman ef she would let us hab sum bre'd. She gib me sum meat en bre'd, en tole me ter kum back. I went back home en we et sump'in, en I went back ter de 'oman's house, she gib me a sack ob flour en a big piece ob midlin' meat. We wuz skeered, bein' dere 'lone so I would set up wile mah br'ers slep', den I'd sleep in de daytime.
There was a guffaw at this modest assertion, but the disaffected miller's tones dominated the rude merriment. "Whenst a feller takes ter drink folks kin spell out a heap o' reasons but the true one an' that's 'kase he likes it. Hil'ry 'ain't never named that 'oman's name ter me, an' I hev knowed him ez well ez ennybody hyar.
And if Professor Oman's analysis be true, one understands how it is that, though there have always been Jewish ascetics, at times of considerable numbers and devotion, yet asceticism, as such, has no recognized place in Judaism.
With this advice, Miss Oman whisked to the right-about and vanished into the depths of the cavern like the Witch of Wokey, while I hurried on to the surgery to provide myself with the necessary instruments and materials, and thence proceeded to Nevill's Court. Miss Oman's juvenile maid-servant, who opened the door to me, stated the existing conditions with epigrammatic conciseness: "Mr.
"No pearl ever lay under Oman's green water, More pure in its shell than thy spirit in thee." After the comparatively sequestered series of St. Augustine's Bay, the Comoros, Aden, and Muscat, our next port, Bombay, seemed like returning to city hubbub and accustomed ways.
His old 'oman's a gossip of mine we were young togither and the lads did not know which to like the best. So we often meets, and talks of the old times. I be going up there now. Och! I hope I shall be asked to the widding. And what a nice month to wid in; Novimber Novimber, that's the merry month for me! But 'tis cold bitter cold, too. Well, good day good day.
Despite the efforts of Czartoryski and Stein to tear the democratic mask from his face, it imposed on mankind until the Spanish Revolution laid bare the truth; and at St. Helena the exile gave his own verdict on the policy of Bayonne: "It was the Spanish ulcer which ruined me." Oman's recently published "History of the Peninsular War," vol. i., pp. 268-278, 291-300.
An' the little home the ole 'oman's got, she bought it with her own money, been savin' it all her life an' now" "What did you say to her this morning?" asked Travis. "Oh, I cussed her out good the old black" A peculiar light flashed in Richard Travis' eyes. Never before had the Whipper-in seen it. It was as if he had looked up and seen a halo around the moon.
