Mark shook his head. "Oh, Mr Vandean, sir, look at her. She's another schooner about the same cut as this, and though she can see us, she isn't showing us her heels, for she don't know there's a man-o'-war's crew aboard, headed by the smartest young midshipman in the ryle navy." "That'll do, Tom Fillot. No gammon, please." "It ain't gammon, sir," cried Tom, sturdily, "but the solid truth.
Bishop Ryle, a good judge, has spoken to me of the young man's extraordinary facility at turning English poetry at sight into the most melodious Greek and Latin, and of the remarkable range of his scholarship.
They could see that he was ill. His body swayed as though it were beyond his control. His hands were waving, turning, beseeching.... Suddenly tears were running down his cheeks. "Not this shame!" he cried. "Not this shame! kill me but save the Cathedral!" They were on their feet. Foster and Ryle had come round to him. "Archdeacon, sit down." "You're ill."
Old Testament criticism by men like Driver, Cheyne, Ryle, and Gore, is indeed as the petitioners assert destroying faith in "the Holy Scriptures" as the "infallible and inspired Word o\c God." They still pretend it is inspired, but not infallible. "Infallible," at this time of day, is a very "large order."
All this passed very swiftly through Ryle's mind, and was quickly strangled by hearing Brandon utter in quite his old knock-you-down-if-you- don't-get-out-of-my-way voice, "Ha! Ryle! Out early this morning! I hope you're not planning any more new-fangled musical schemes for us!" Oh, well! if the Archdeacon were going to take that sort of tone with him, Ryle simply wasn't going to stand it!
"There are two of those choir-boys on the grass again," he said. "If Ryle doesn't keep them in better order, I'll let him know what I think of him. He's always promising and never does anything." The last talk of their lives alone together was ended. He had made all his plans.
On the right was Brandon's seat; on the left Witheram, seriously approaching the business of the day as though his very life depended upon it; then Bentinck-Major, his hands looking as though they had been manicured; next to him Ryle, laughing obsequiously at some fashionable joke that Bentinck-Major had delivered to him; opposite to him Foster, looking as though he had not had a meal for a week and badly shaved with a cut on his chin; and next to him Ronder.
Ryle and Mrs. Brandon. A very special one for Mrs. Brandon because of his high opinion of her husband. She was nothing very much "a mean little woman," he thought her but the Archdeacon had married her. That was enough. Joan was with her, conscious that every one must be noticing her-the D'Arcy girls and Cynthia Ryle and Gladys Sampson, they would all be looking and criticising.
This was definitely a meeting of Conspirators, and all of those engaged in it, with one exception, knew that that was so. Bentinck-Major knew it, and Foster and Ryle and Rogers. The exception was Martin, a young Minor Canon, who had the living of St. Joseph's-in-the-Fields, a slum parish in the lower part of the town. Martin had been invited because he was the best clergyman in Polchester.
Melvill and M'Neile are examples: so, in a different walk, is Ryle, so well known by his tracts. We believe that Melvill in his early days delivered his sermons from memory, and of late years only has taken to reading, to the considerable diminution of the effect he produces.
