"Certainly not of course not," cried Balbilla. "He must have been a splendid man, and very learned besides." "He was my father's father," said Pontius. "Then you belong to our family," exclaimed Balbilla, offering him a friendly hand. "I thank you for those words," answered Pontius. "Now, once more, Pollux had nothing to do with that image." "Take my cloak, Claudia," said the girl.
Pontius met the Emperor's servant and his water-carriers and remarked, loudly enough for Mastor to understand him, to Pollux who was with him: "The architect's servant is getting Christians to wait upon his master to-day. They are regular and sober workmen who do their duty silently and well."
To the northeast and north the Sickle, the Goat and kids, Cassiopeia, Castor and Pollux, and the two Dippers. While through the whole of this silent indescribable show, inclosing and bathing my whole receptivity, ran the thought of Carlyle dying. And now that he has gone hence, can it be that Thomas Carlyle, soon to chemically dissolve in ashes and by winds, remains an identity still?
Trajan's Forum is an interesting little place, but it is a small show compared with the Roman Forum, which is much more extensive, and whose ruins are more varied. The latter contains the temples of Vespasian, of Concordia, of Castor and Pollux, and others. It also contains the famous Arch of Titus, the Basilica of Constantine, the remains of great palaces, and other ruins.
I once asked a guide what had given its name to the Rimpfischorn, and he answered that it was supposed to be like a "rimf." When I asked what that was he said it was something which was like the Rimpfischorn. And to our right were the peaks of Monte Rosa, Nordend and Dufourspitze, black rock out of white snow, and the ridge of the Lyskamm, and the twin white snow peaks, Castor and Pollux.
So they went along the dark streets which grew full of people the farther they went, side by side in silence. Presently Pollux said: "Put your arm through mine; you ought to feel that I am protecting you, and I I should like to feel at every step that I have found you once more, and am allowed to be near you so sweet a creature."
A parent's commands are law to a Hebrew maiden; if there be any sin in what you do, it lies upon me alone." "And think you that I would bring sin upon your head?" said Zarah. "Oh no, that would be to wrong a parent indeed!" "I have such a burden of my own to carry," observed Pollux, bitterly, "that I shall scarcely be sensible of so small an addition to its weight.
The point of the guard's weapon was lowered; but another of the soldiers was about to remonstrate. "It is against orders," he began, when Pollux interrupted him. "Methinks you are one who served under me in the force of Giorgias," observed the courtier, with presence of mind. "Ay, my lord," answered the soldier.
It is extremely interesting in the light of this knowledge of the true state of affairs to see how legend later explained the coming of Castor and Pollux. It was an incident in the mythical war which was supposed to have taken place after the last Tarquin had been driven out, and the republic had been started.
With a deep sigh of relief he set the cup and the phial on the ground so as to support her when she slowly began to raise herself; but, scarcely had he turned his face towards her, when she sprang up suddenly and violently, and flinging both her arms round his neck, cried out: "Save me, Pollux, save me! The monster is devouring me."
