One, a princeling in scarlet uniform, appearing fresh from under earth; Prussian: a weighty young Graf in green, between sage and bottle, who seemed to have run off a tree in the forest, and was trimmed with silver like dew-drops: one in your Austrian white, dragon de Boheme, if I caught his French rightly. Others as well, a list. They have the accomplishment.
The two went and stood side by side before a great mirror, and lo, a miracle: there did not seem to have been any change made! They stared at each other, then at the glass, then at each other again. At last the puzzled princeling said "What dost thou make of this?" "Ah, good your worship, require me not to answer. It is not meet that one of my degree should utter the thing."
From the young princeling of some native State sauntering about Clubland with his bear-leader to the lascar off a P. and O. boat, among East London drabs, or the middle-class Mohammedan student who compares the civic achievements that surround him with the dingy dining-room of a Bloomsbury boarding-house, all are apostles of life in London as it seems to them.
She was about to cross the hill and breakfast with Mrs. Wythan. She could have argued her exceptional robustness against another than he. But the dead father wanting to build a great race of men and women ruled. Carinthia knelt at the cradle of a princeling gone from the rich repast to his alternative kingdom. 'You will bring him over when he wakes, she said to Madge. 'Mrs.
By his successful usurpation the hereditary principle always a weak one in Ireland was broken down. The one chance of a settled central government was thus at an end. Every petty chief and princeling all over the island felt himself capable of emulating the achievements of Brian. It was one of those cases which success and only success justifies.
Still grasping the trembling child in his iron grip, he stood facing the lady in waiting, his back against the door. "Mon Dieu, Sir Jules," she cried, "hast thou gone mad?" "No, My Lady," he answered, "but I had not thought to do the work which now lies before me. Why didst thou not keep a still tongue in thy head and let his patron saint look after the welfare of this princeling?
He was a stately man, he was ideally costumed, and fairly festooned with ropes of gems; some of the ropes were of pearls, some were of uncut great emeralds emeralds renowned in Bombay for their quality and value. Their size was marvelous, and enticing to the eye, those rocks. A boy a princeling was with the prince, and he also was a radiant exhibition. The ceremonies were not tedious.
The retinue of nobles behind Gurgurk ran through the whole spectrum, from a princeling who was almost oyster-gray to the Keegarkan Ambassador, who was even blacker and more red-speckled than Gurgurk. Four slaves brought up in the rear, carrying an ornately inlaid box on poles. When the spear-bearer reached the exact middle of the hall, he halted and grounded his regalia-weapon with a thump.
"And I don't know how to get them right." And all he could do was to stand like an oaf and ask her to explain. Nor could he ignore the fact so new and strange to a princeling! that her perplexities were more interesting to her than his visit. Yet of course Tatham had his own natural conceit of himself, like any normal young man, in the first bloom of prosperous life.
Nothing, certainly, could have been more fitting than that a ruler of Vikingland should be educated for the sea. Nor could anything have been devised better calculated to knock the nonsense out of a princeling than apprenticeship in the Danish navy. Hrolf Wisby, who messed with Prince Karl when he was a naval cadet, says that the lad was at first little more than a piece of court furniture.
