As for the others, one of them owned to me that he had never been on any river before the Nile but the Thames at Putney, and his idea of a rapid was the tide rushing under the bridge." "But sure, sergeant, he can sing `Row, brothers, row, iligantly, he can," said Grady. "Ay, but he can't do it," replied the sergeant. "He ought to be in the water now.
So soon as the mutton had been replaced by the apple-pie, Watts-Dunton leaned forward and 'Well, Algernon, he roared, 'how was it on the Heath to-day? Swinburne, who had meekly inclined his ear to the question, now threw back his head, uttering a sound that was like the cooing of a dove, and forthwith, rapidly, ever so musically, he spoke to us of his walk; spoke not in the strain of a man who had been taking his daily exercise on Putney Heath, but rather in that of a Peri who had at long last been suffered to pass through Paradise.
