He had invited not only the chief fighting-men of the day, but also those men of fashion who were most interested in the ring: Mr. Fletcher Reid, Lord Say and Sele, Sir Lothian Hume, Sir John Lade, Colonel Montgomery, Sir Thomas Apreece, the Hon. Berkeley Craven, and many more.
She gave them the sele of the day and stood still herself; but the man with the ash-wand said: Hail, thou man; but we would have thee come no nearer a while, though thy voice be sweet: for we know what things they be which thou bearest, and that thou art a warrior. Wilt thou hurt us?
THE EARL OF MANCHESTER: To be made a Marquis, and provision to be considered for him. THE EARL OF SALISBURY: To be made a Marquis. VISCOUNT SAYE AND SELE: To be made an Earl, LORD ROBERTS: To be made an Earl. LORD WHARTON: To be made an Earl. LORD WILLOUGHBY OF PARHAM: To be made an Earl. DENZIL HOLLES: To be made a Viscount.
Clarke, a resident in England for a number of years, had acquired no little personal influence; and Winthrop, as an old-time friend of the English lords and gentlemen whose governor he had been at Saybrook, could count on the help of the one surviving member of that group, Lord Saye and Sele, who was a privy councillor, a member of the House of Lords and of the plantations council, and, as we are told, Lord Privy Seal, a position that would be of direct service in expediting the issue of a charter.
In the distant days of the eighteenth century, the traveller to Paestum had to endure amidst other difficulties and dangers of the road the disagreeable business of being ferried across the Sele, which was then bridgeless.
Rumours of Dutch designs may have reached the ears of Lord Say and Sele and Lord Brooke "fanatic Brooke," as Scott calls him in "Marmion" who had obtained from the Council for New England a grant of territory on the shores of the Sound.
This place was selected partly because of its good harbor, and partly because a fort here would command the entrance to this "Long, Fresh, Rich River." The "Lords and Gentlemen" who planned this undertaking included Lord Saye and Sele, Lord Brooke, John Pym, and other well-known men in the Puritan party.
The woman had a large book on her lap, in which she was reading by the last light of the departing orb. I gave the group the sele of the evening in English, which they all returned, the woman looking up from her book. "Is that volume the Bible?" said I. "It is, sir," said the woman. "May I look at it?" said I. "Certainly," said the woman, and placed the book in my hand.
The latter statement is also true of the Earl of Warwick, the Parliament's admiral, and of those excellent persons, Lord Say and Sele and Lord Brooke, both of whom at one time proposed to emigrate.
But while they were busied herein they saw a man come out of the house, and down to the river to meet them; and they soon saw that he was tall and old, long-hoary of hair and beard, and clad mostly in the skins of beasts. He drew nigh without any fear or mistrust, and coming close to them gave them the sele of the day in a kindly and pleasant voice.
