Wells, strangely enough, calls himself a believer in freewill the most uncompromising Determinism conceivable. And this Determinism follows quite inevitably from Mr. Wells's monistic premises belief in a cosmic "scheme" every part of which is ultimately right.

But not many miles had been covered before he was gritting his teeth and swearing over the knowledge of his scheme's defeat.

Drummond drove no farther in that direction.
TELL. To Altdorf, to your father. HEDWIG. You have some dangerous enterprise in view? Confess! TELL. Why think you so? HEDWIG. Some scheme's on foot, Against the governors.

Fulfil your destiny, plot your wicked scheme's against us, and then at last, broken, humbled, scorned of all the world beside, come back to us and sue for pity at the door of those to whom you have shown no pity. God's will be done!" Manasseh allowed himself to use no reproach, no word of withering scorn, in thus addressing his enemy.
I told him about the bottles. "A dead loss, those bottles," he says. "I wanted some non-refillable ones for a little scheme I had in mind, and I had to get them at a certain place and now the scheme's up in the air and I can't use 'em." The doctor had changed some in looks in the year or more that had passed since I saw him floating away in that balloon. And not fur the better.
'Let Arthur see the pose. She sat down obediently. Fenwick heard an exclamation from Welby, and a murmured remark to Lord Findon; then Welby turned to the painter, his face aglow.

"By the Lord Harry," said Captain Scraggs, "but you've got an imagination, Gib. I'll swear to that. Gib, I take off my hat to you. You're all tight and shipshape and no loose ends bobbin' around you. Don't tell me th' scheme's got t' fall through, Gib. Great snakes, don't tell me that. Ain't there some way o' gettin' around it? There must be.
