"No," proceeded Shelton; "we've too much common-sense up here to strain our minds. We know when it's time to stop. We pile up news of Papias and all the verbs in 'ui' but as for news of life or of oneself! Real seekers after knowledge are a different sort. They fight in the dark no quarter given. We don't grow that sort up here." "How jolly the limes smell!" said Crocker.

Papias was not at all frightened by the big man with his white beard, for a bright and kindly gleam shone in his eyes, and his voice was soft and attractive as he asked him whether he had such another ball and could toss it as cleverly as the fountain did. Papias said: "No," and Olympius, turning to Agne, went on: "You should get him a ball.

There is nothing to prevent our agreeing with Papias in regarding this eye-witness, who evidently had followed Jesus, who had loved him and observed him very closely, and who had preserved a lively image of him, as the apostle Peter himself. As to the work of Luke, its historical value is sensibly weaker. It is a document which comes to us second-hand. The narrative is more mature.

If, however, the matter which Matthew and Luke have in such rich measure in addition to Mark's narrative be considered, the likeness between this and the writing attributed by Papias to the apostle Matthew is noteworthy. The conclusion is now very general, that that apostolic writing is in large measure preserved in the discourses in our first and third gospels.

Karnis and his two companions were a long time away. Dada had almost forgotten her wish to see the young soldier once more, and after playing with little Papias for some time, as she might have played with a dog, she began to feel dull and to think the quiet of the boat intolerable.

The Exegetes, the highest official in the town, now came forward and took a new list out of the hand of Papias the sculptor.

"Nearly six." "And with black hair like yours?" "No, my lord fair hair," and as she spoke the tears started to her eyes. "He has light curly hair and a sweet, pretty little face." The prefect smiled and nodded. "And if they find him," he went on, "Papias, you say, is his name where is he to be taken?" "I do not know, my lord, for and yet!

"Then follow me," replied Pontius, leading the way. "What do you say to this Urania? Papias made the head of the Muse, but the figure and the drapery Pollux formed with his own hand in a few days." The imperial artist stood in front of the statue, with his arms crossed, and remained there for some time in silence.

Gorgo's blue spangled dress, which Damia had sent her, suited the girl to perfection; but she was quite out of breath, and her hair was in disorder. Herse, too, looked agitated, her face was red and she dragged little Papias, whose hand she held, rather roughly at her heels.

Hardly had he ended the lines, muttering them to himself with much relish as he wrote, when the waiter showed in Pollux. The sculptor had failed to find Antinous, and suggested that the young man had probably gone home; he also begged that he might not be detained long at supper, for he had met his master Papias, who had been extremely annoyed by his long absence.
