"The satisfaction is mutual, I assure you, Baron," was my reply, and then we re-seated ourselves and began to chat. Suddenly mademoiselle made some remark in a language which I did not understand. The effect it had upon the new-comer was almost electrical. He started from his seat, glaring at her. Then he began to question her rapidly in the unknown tongue.
But the Saxon chiefs had already turned their faces towards the neighbouring ingress into the ramparts, and beheld not her movement, while the tramp of rushing chargers, the shout and the roar of clashing war, drowned the wail of her feeble cry: "I have heard him again, again!" murmured the woman, "God be praised!" and she re-seated herself quietly under the lonely thorn.
The doctor asks me to apologise to you for his inability to express himself well in English, but personally I have no fear that you will misunderstand him." Then he turned, introduced the lecturer, and re-seated himself. I was quite unprepared for such a treat.
"Then, I suppose," said I, "that, as a stranger, I have not permission to intrude upon them?" "Shall I inquire?" answered the marquise. "No!" said I, "it is not worth while;" and accordingly I re-seated myself, and appeared once more occupied in saying des belles choses to my kind-hearted neighbour.
The Queen looked at him, he met her eyes with an expression that she had never seen on his face before. "Suffer me to have my way!" he said to her in a low tone "Let your singers finish their programme; afterwards do me the favour to dismiss your women, for I must speak with you alone." She bent her head in acquiescence; and re-seated herself on her ivory throne.
Napoleon was hardly re-seated on his throne ere he learned that he must in all likelihood maintain it against 300,000 Austrians, 225,000 Russians, 236,000 Prussians, an army of 150,000 men furnished by the minor states of Germany, 50,000 contributed by the government of the Netherlands, and 50,000 English, commanded by the Duke of Wellington; in all one million eleven thousand soldiers.
During the restoration carried on from 1855 to 1857, great changes besides those already mentioned were made in the interior: the whitewash and plaster were removed from the walls, a west gallery was taken down, the nave re-seated, the organ transferred from its position upon the screen to the south transept, and much mischief was done from an archæological standpoint, a thing which seems almost inseparable from any nineteenth-century restoration.
Disappointed by this manoeuvre, Pembroke re-seated himself; and wondering why his aunt and cousin had not heard of Lady Tinemouth's arrival at Harrowby, he determined to wait on her next day. Regardless of every word which the provoked Diana addressed to him, he remained silent and meditating, until the loud voice of Shafto, bellowing in his ear, made him turn suddenly round.
So, perforce, Bellew re-seated himself upon his portmanteau, and drawing Small Porges close, bent his head down to the anxious little face; and so, Small Porges told him exactly what the Moon had said. For a moment he stared wide-eyed at Small Porges like one awaking from a dream, then the gloom vanished from his brow, and he sprang to his feet.
There was a general titter from the Corporal, my host, and his wife, at the Traveller's semi-jest at his own unprepossessing appearance: but Madeline, a little disconcerted, bowed hastily, and drew her sister away. "A proud quean!" said the Stranger, as he re-seated himself, and watched the sisters gliding across the green. All mouths were opened against him immediately.
