After that, for some days, Jonas and Pomona spent all their time, and Euphemia and I part of ours, in looking for the child. Euphemia's Parisian exhilaration continued to increase, but there were some things that disappointed her. "I thought," said she, "that people in France took their morning coffee in bed, but they do not bring it up to us."
O how delectable then unto nature will be our own works and productions! Whilst Ceres appeareth laden with corn, Bacchus with wines, Flora with flowers, Pomona with fruits, and Juno fair in a clear air, wholesome and pleasant. I lose myself in this high contemplation.
And moreover, Lady Pomona had received no former hint of the information which was now conveyed to her, Georgiana was in the habit of meeting the curate of the next parish almost every day in the park. 'Mr Batherbolt! exclaimed Lady Pomona. 'She is walking with Mr Batherbolt almost every day. 'But he is so very strict. 'It is true, mamma. 'And he's five years younger than she!
January 14, 1815, through the blunder of his pilot, his ship heavily grounded while going out. The next morning, Decatur discovered the British squadron in pursuit, consisting of the Majestic razee, the Endymion, Tenedos, and Pomona frigates and a brig. Of these the Endymion was the fleetest. After drawing her away from the rest, Decatur turned and attacked her.
Pomona had called Miss Lupin "the young lady." This had placed Miss Lupin; she belonged to a superior class, and her ministrations were a condescension. It was strange indeed that such trivialities should have a force to span the huge gulf years had dug between these two, and yet never show a rift in the black cloud of their fraud-begotten ignorance.
It took that skipper nearly half an hour to fully recover his faculties; and when he did so, his first act was to go below and solemnly make an entry in his official log to the effect that, on such and such a date at such an hour, in latitude and longitude so and so, the weather at the time being fine, with a moderate breeze from S.W., the schooner Pomona had experienced a terrific shock of earthquake with an accompanying disturbance of water which nearly swamped the ship.
I felt that they ought to be horribly conscious of the ghastly thing which had been found under that platform only a few hours since. I said something of the kind to Quarles. "Don't forget the artistic temperament," he answered. "Surely it would be the very temperament to be influenced," I said. "Presently we shall find out, perhaps," he whispered as Sister Pomona went to the piano.
The meal was soon ready, and consisted of cress fresh from the spring, fried cress, and toasted cress, with cress tea, and also freshly drawn water from a spring." "Poor young man!" exclaimed the Next Neighbor. "So tired and hungry! Was that all they had to give him?" "Of course," explained Pomona; "hermits never eat anything but water-cress."
"The usages of society are not worth much, sometimes," said Euphemia, "and you must remember that Pomona is a very different kind of a person from an ordinary servant. She is much more like a member of the family I can't exactly explain what kind of a member, but I understand it myself.
All this was communicated to Lady Pomona in a very long letter, which she was instructed to read to her daughters. 'I have suffered great wrongs, said Mr Longestaffe, 'but I must submit to them, and as I submit so must my wife and children. If our son were different from what he is the sacrifice might probably be made lighter.
