Then he bade the eunuch carry the four trays into his serraglio and going in to his wife, laid them before her. She uncovered them and seeing therein that whose like she possessed not; no, nor a fraction thereof, said to him, "From which of the Kings hadst thou these?: perchance of one of the royalties that seek thy daughter in marriage?"
I cared only that Nell and Phyllis were more beautiful than ever, and that I still might have a chance with one of them. "Let Alb score a little," I thought, "by his knowledge of history and Royalties past and present. I'll paint each of the girls a picture, and they'll forget that he exists." But I did not yet know my Alb and his resources.
It seemed that the letter Jim Tapp and Murdock had secured was from Mr. Graham, back at Fairview. Graham had discovered in a secret bottom of the box Andy had left with him, a paper referring to a patent of Andy's father. As time had brought about, this paper entitled the heirs of the old inventor to quite large royalties on a new electrical device which had come into practical use after Mr.
"I should much rather know what sort of life that English woman is living here with her German husband; I fancied she had married rank. I could imagine how dull it must be in her little Saxon town, from the way she clung to her Illustrated News, and explained the pictures of the royalties to her friend. There is romance for you!"
"You are as the others," he said, "They buy the book, they lay it on the table, they talk of it at dinner, they say 'Bernhardi has prophesied this, Bernhardi foresaw that, but read it, nevermore." "Still," I said, "you get the royalties." "They are cut off. The perfidious British Government will not allow the treacherous publisher to pay them. But that is not my complaint."
These royalties are very touchy about other people's reputations." Well, I heard that often enough in the next few days. Mr. Sam hadn't come back by the morning of the sixth day, but he wired his wife the day before that Mr. Dick was on the way. But we met every train with a sleigh, and he didn't come. I was uneasy, knowing Mr. Dick, and Mrs. Sam was worried, too.
Again I say, failing the Atheling, whom could we choose but Harold, brother-in-law to the King: descended through Githa from the royalties of the Norse, the head of all armies under the Herr-ban, the chief who has never fought without victory, yet who has always preferred conciliation to conquest the first counsellor in the Witan the first man in the realm who but Harold? answer me, staring Vebba?"
Cayley-Binns' late husband had lent him money, and he had been so grateful that she had always felt entitled to speak of him openly as "dear cousin Morton, the great physician, you know, whom all the royalties love." She wrote promptly and begged him for a letter of introduction to Miss Sutfield, who was living above the lower levels of Mentone, at the Annonciata.
Crawford wanted to laugh, but he compromised by saying: "He must be very careful of that hair of his; he hasn't much left." "And he pulls out a good deal of it on my account. Poor dad! Why in the world should I marry a title?" "Why, indeed!" "Mrs. Crawford was beautiful tonight. There wasn't a beauty at the opera to compare with her. Royalties are frumps, aren't they? And that ruby!
The royal domains and royalties were not granted to the confederacies, and these were specially prohibited from working the gold and silvei mines, a chief source of the national wealth; but in 596 they were again permitted to work at least the silver-mines. The import of salt, and the export of timber for shipbuilding, were prohibited.
