Then he paused for a moment, and continued, "How I envy him!" And as though the spirits of the two men were in communion with each other, Collingwood, knowing that the Commander-in-Chief's eager eye was fixed upon him in fond admiration, called out to the flag-captain near him, "Rotherham, what would Nelson give to be here?"
"I shall be as frank as yourself, and say that you judge the gentleman harshly. Mr. Rotherham may not have all the qualities that a clergyman ought to possess, but he is far from being a bad man. Good or bad, however, it is not probable that he will carry his transient partiality any farther than he has gone already." "Mr. Rotherham! I have neither thought nor spoken of the pious vicar at all!"
You invited both to pass the night with you." "I remember it now; my mind still confused," here Tom Wychecombe again nudged the master "Sir Gervaise Oakes an Admiral ancient baronet man of high honour. Admiral Bluewater, too relative Lord Bluewater; gentleman universal esteem. You, too, Rotherham; wish my poor brother James St. James used to call him had been living; you good neighbour Rotherham."
At all events, it is clear that his mind is dwelling on the disposition of his property, since he speaks of wills. Atwood, make a note of these words, that there need be no mistake. I wonder he has said nothing of our brave young lieutenant, his namesake. There can be no harm, Mr. Rotherham, in just mentioning that fine fellow to him, in a moment like this?" "I see none, sir.

If you are bound to the Hall, this morning, sir, I'm certain the ladies would be delighted to give you a seat."
When this was done, the admiral rubbed his hands, in satisfaction, like a man who felt he had got himself cleverly out of a knotty difficulty. "I don't see, after all, Mr. Rotherham," he observed to the vicar, as they stood together, in a corner of the room, waiting the return of the secretary; "what he lugged in that school-boy Latin for nullus, nulla, nullum!
