On them, huddled to the arching necks, in an attitude of prostrate devotion, were magnificent bunches of colour; scarce an outline could be seen of the proudly attired men and women who had fled before a tidal wave of tossing horns. Father Osuna, in his coarse brown woollen robes, stood before the altar, chanting the mass of thanksgiving. The church blazed with the light of many candles.

"That is enough," said Dorothea, "for with friends we must not look too closely into trifles; and whether it be on the shoulder or on the backbone matters little; it is enough if there is a mole, be it where it may, for it is all the same flesh; no doubt my good father hit the truth in every particular, and I have made a lucky hit in commending myself to Don Quixote; for he is the one my father spoke of, as the features of his countenance correspond with those assigned to this knight by that wide fame he has acquired not only in Spain but in all La Mancha; for I had scarcely landed at Osuna when I heard such accounts of his achievements, that at once my heart told me he was the very one I had come in search of."

My own was warm, accordin' to my taste, and somehow Californy seemed as if it ought to be fur enough away to be cool and nice." "It's very hot in the valleys." "So it is. So it is. But as you see, I prefer the mountains." "Do you often go to the Mission?" "Every month or so I go down and have a chin with Padre Osuna. It keeps my Spanish in, and I shouldn't like to lose sight of him.

She said that she had many times amused herself reading them; but that she did not know the situation of the provinces or seaports, and so she had said at haphazard that she had landed at Osuna. "So I saw," said the curate, "and for that reason I made haste to say what I did, by which it was all set right.

Ribera says she entered November 2, 1535; and the chronicler of the Order, relying on the contract by which her father bound himself to the monastery, says that she took the habit Nov. 2, 1536, and that Ribera had made a mistake. Ch. v. section 15. Ch. iii. section 4. Ch. iii. section 5. By Fray Francisco de Osuna, of the Order of St. See ch. ix. sections 4, 7. Illness and Patience of the Saint.

There's only one thing I've got to ask in return: Have you got a grudge agin the priest?" "I have." "Be you meditatin' revenge?" "A Spaniard never forgives an insult." "Oh, . . . have you got it in yer power to injure Padre Osuna in the sight o' men?" "I have, and worse for him." "Don't do it, young man," said Hill, solemnly. "Don't do it.

But before Dorothea could reply the curate anticipated her, saying, "The princess meant to say that after she had landed at Malaga the first place where she heard of your worship was Osuna." "That is what I meant to say," said Dorothea. "And that would be only natural," said the curate.

The Duke of Osuna one of the greatest grandees of the kingdom, a gentleman who has the right to wear seventeen hats in the presence of the Queen receives fifty thousand dollars a year for imaginary feudal services. The Count of Altamira, who, as his name indicates, is a gentleman of high views, receives as a salve for the suppression of his fief thirty thousand dollars a year.

Many notable pictures that had hung for years in the Academia de Nobles Artes de San Fernando, at the Escorial Palace, and and the collection of the Duke of Osuna are now housed within the walls of the Prado.
