His love is exalted above that of Swift for Stella, Waller for Sacharissa, Scarron for Maintenon, and his godly fear as here exhibited is cited to offset the outspoken avowal of dishonoring desire. Hamann in a letter to Herder, June 26, 1780, speaks of the Yorick-Eliza correspondence quite disparagingly.
Linda cast one tragic glance at her material husband, pushed her sister aside, arose and fled. After her sped the contrite Destyn; a distant door shut noisily; all the elements had gathered for the happy, first quarrel of the newly wedded. "Fudge," said Sacharissa, walking to the window, slim hands clasped loosely behind her back. Wherein Sacharissa Remains In and a Young Man Can't Get Out
"I think I'll take this load to the nurseries," she said, when she had finished. "It was always quiet there in my day," and she topped off with two little pats of pollen for the babies. She was met on the fourth brood-comb by a rush of excited sisters all buzzing together. "One at a time! Let me put down my load. Now, what is it Sacharissa?" she said.
Look up, and you'll see the dawn of the New Day." Light broke in the top of the hive as the Queen had, prophesied naked light on the boiling, bewildered bees. Sacharissa rounded up her rearguard, which dropped headlong off the frame, and joined the Princess's detachment thrusting toward the Gate. Now panic was in full blast, and each sound bee found herself embraced by at least three Oddities.

The house and park, too, of the neighboring squire, the father of the cruel Sacharissa, had shrunk in size and diminished in magnificence. The distant hills no longer appeared so far off, and, alas! no longer awakened ideas of a fairy land beyond.
"It is now," broke in the voice from the shaft, "an utter impossibility for me to catch any train in the United States." "I am dreadfully sorry," said Sacharissa. "Isn't there an ax in the house?" The butler mournfully denied it. "Then get the furnace bar." It was fetched; nerve-racking blows rained on the grille; puffing servants applied it as a lever, as a battering-ram, as a club.
There was a semirespectful silence; Linda looked at the little jewel-like machine with a slight shudder; Sacharissa shrugged her young shoulders. "How much of this," said she, "is theory and how much is fact? for, William, you always were something of a poet." "I don't know. A month ago I tried it on your father's footman, and in a week he'd married a perfectly strange parlor maid."
"Look here, young woman, do you know my name?" "No, sir, but that doesn't make any difference to Miss Carr." "She wishes to see me!" "Oh, yes, sir." "I I'm in a hurry to catch a train." He looked hard at the maid, at his watch, at the maid again. "Are you perfectly sure you're not mistaken?" he demanded. "No, sir, I " "A certain Miss Sacharissa Carr desires to see me?
