Le Breton and say, "A young artist of my acquaintance is making a pilgrimage into the East End to see for himself how the people live, and to make pictures of them to stir up the sluggish consciences of the lazy aristocrats" that's me and my people, of course: that'll be the way to work it. Play upon Mr. Le Breton's tenderest feelings.

Are you for the White or the Black Mass? Cybele or the Holy Ghost? Catherine or Hermes Trismegistus? Siena will give you any and yet more cunning confections. It is very strange. The approach to her three hills, if you are not flattened by the intolerable pilgrimage from Florence, is fine.

They willingly gave up all other work, and morning after morning set out on their toilsome, sorrowful pilgrimage, while the poor orphans, of course, were most tenderly cared for now.

A bereavement of this kind gives one a glimpse of the feeling those must have, who have seen all drop round them friend after friend, and are left to end their pilgrimage alone." Even in persons of naturally robust health, and with no "Ricordarsi di tempo felice Nella miseria " to wear, with slow dropping but perpetual pain, upon their spirits, the nerves and appetite will give way in solitude.

I die, But God will visit you undoubtedly; And to that land again whereof he spake Unto our ancestors, will bring you back. And Joseph also made his brethren swear, That they would not inter his body there. And thus he ended his life's pilgrimage, Being an hundred and ten years of age; And was embalm'd, and in a coffin laid, In Egypt, till he could be thence convey'd.

It was amazing, for instance, to observe the vigor and perseverance with which feeble, sickly old creatures, performed the necessary austerities of this dreadful pilgrimage; creatures, who if put to the same fatigue, on any other business, would at once sink under it; but the motive supplied energy, and the infirmities of nature borrowed new strength from the deep and ardent devotion of the spirit.

Meanwhile Jansen made pilgrimage to the Springs of Healing, and at unexpected times Ingles suddenly appeared in the town, and stood at street corners; and in his "Patmian voice," as Flood Rawley the lawyer called it, warned the people to flee their sins, and purifying their hearts, learn to cure all ills of mind and body, the weaknesses of the sinful flesh and the "ancient evil" in their souls, by faith that saves.

It was felt, indeed, that this was to be the Pilgrimage that was to ordain and sanction the rite for all time. In the deepest spirit of religion and devotion it was undertaken and completed. Islam was now to show to the world the measure of its strength, and to succeeding generations the sum of its being and the insistence of its call.

So shall my slaves imagine their Sultan goeth forth with them to the field, and their hearts shall be strengthened." "Be the desires of the Sultan fulfilled," said Horam, with reverence; "but will not my lord take with him a guard in his pilgrimage? for the dangers of the journey are great over the mountains and deserts, and the voyage by the seas is perilous."

Our pilgrimage is about to end, as we have hoped, in a great recovery and restoration. When the call of a curlew sounds, leap from the stretcher, leave the bandages beside it; go to the entrance, guarding it from within; but turn not thy head this way, until a blackbird whistles; upon which lose thyself among the pillars, letting no man see thee, until we have passed out.
