Scrope item, the little artist; Mathews to Newcastle; his son to Liverpool. So exeunt omnes. Mathews assures me that Sheridan was generally very dull in society, and sate sullen and silent, swallowing glass after glass, rather a hindrance than a help.
A bend, a border charged with mitres; over all a label Archbishop Scrope. 11. Three water bougets Roos. 12. A saltire Neville. 13. On a cross five lions passant guardant City of York. 14. Three fusils in fess Montague. 15. A fess between six cross crosslets Beauchamp. 16. A lion rampant Percy. 17.
"Three trenches," said Tessin, with a shrug of the shoulders. "Yes, three. The two nearest to Tangier may be carried. But the third it is deep, twelve feet at the least, and wide, at the least eight yards. The sides are steep and slippery with the rain." "A grave, then," said Scrope carelessly; "a grave that will hold many before the evening falls. It is well they made it wide and deep enough."
One was his own son, Thomas Duke of Clarence; the second and third were husbands of two of Kent's sisters Sir John Neville and Thomas Earl of Salisbury the latter being the son of the murdered Lollard; the fourth was Lord Scrope, whose character appears to have been simple to an extreme; and the last was assuredly never asked to consent to the exaction, for he was the hapless March, still close prisoner in Windsor Castle.
They had been very slightly covered with volcanic ashes before the lava flowed over them, but the lead with which holes in them had been plugged was not melted. The current that buried Mompiliere in 1669 was thirty-five feet thick, but marble statues, in a church over which the lava formed an arch, were found uncalcined and uninjured in 1704, See Scrope, Volcanoes, chap. vi.
On one occasion, whilst his lordship was dining with a few of his friends in Charles Street, Pall Mall, a letter was delivered to Scrope Davis, which required an immediate answer. Scrope, after reading its contents, handed it to Lord Byron. It was thus worded: "MY DEAR SCROPE, Lend me 500L. for a few days; the funds are shut for the dividends, or I would not have made this request. The reply was:
The italics are my own. Poulett Scrope, p. 205. The Kingston Chronicle and Gazette, 12 February, 1841. "A powerful struggle will be made at the next election to secure the return of representatives, who will coincide with the views of the French party in the Lower Province." Sydenham to Russell, 26 February, 1841. Ibid., 1 June, 1841. Poulett Scrope, p. 217.
He turned with almost a jump, and he saw Scrope bending across the table towards him, his eyes ablaze with an excitement no less keen than his own. "He knows, he knows!" whispered Scrope. "It was that song she was singing; at that word 'flow' he pushed open the door of the room." Knightley raised his head and drew his hand across his forehead, as though Scrope's whisper had aroused him.
A sign, perhaps, over a shop in the street he walked down, or a leper pestering him for alms. The intervening hours are lost to him, and forever. It is no question of an abeyance of memory. There is a gap in the continuity of his experience, and that gap he will never fill up." "Except by hearsay?" The correction came from Lieutenant Scrope at the bassette table.
The pardon of Northumberland had left him still a foe; the Earl of Nottingham was son of Henry's opponent, the banished Duke of Norfolk; Scrope, Archbishop of York, was brother of Richard's counsellor, the Earl of Wiltshire, who had been beheaded on the surrender of Bristol.
