Or if further for thy mother's brother Kallikles thou biddest me set up a pillar whiter than Parian stone, lo as the refining of gold showeth forth all his splendours, so doth a song that singeth a man's rare deeds make him as the peer of kings.
Having passed through the tangled mazes of the glen, he at length reached its bottom, along which ran a brook, such as in the description of the poet, In the leafy month of June, Unto the sleeping woods all night, Singeth a quiet tune." Here he stood, and looked upon the green winding margin of the streamlet but its song he heard not.
For when any shall die, the light beginneth to change and to wax dim; and if he be chosen to be prelate, and is not worthy, his lamp quencheth anon. And other men have told me, that he that singeth the mass for the prelate that is dead he shall find upon the altar the name written of him that shall be prelate chosen. And so upon a day, I asked of the monks, both one and other, how this befell.
He singeth. Many a league shall we wend together With helm and spear and bended bow. Hark! how the wind blows up for weather: Dark shall the night be whither we go. Dark shall the night be round the byre, And dark as we drive the brindled kine; Dark and dark round the beacon-fire, Dark down in the pass round our wavering line.
Then, clearing his throat, he sang: "In the merry blossom time, When love longings food the breast, When the flower is on the lime, When the small fowl builds her nest, Sweetly sings the nightingale And the throstle cock so bold; Cuckoo in the dewy dale And the turtle in the word. But the robin I love dear, For he singeth through the year. Robin! Robin! Merry Robin!
Nevertheless, in this manner of feeling, a soul may be deceived by vain glory; not in that time that the affection singeth to Jesu, and loveth Jesu in sweetness of Him, but afterward, when it ceaseth and the heart keeleth of the love of Jesu, then entereth in vain glory.
"Maybe he now singeth a death song in his own tongue." Guy was not without pluck.
When the hot lion's breath singeth the fields. A little lower down, "At all parts" occurs in almost every play of Massinger. On page 232, "This I foresaw," is also very common in similar situations. Among numerous cases I refer to the Unnatural Combat, Act III., about the end, and Maid of Honour, II. iii., where exactly the same words are used. It is the most frequent of his many repetitions.
"After all," said Flemming, "the old French priest was not so far out of the way, when he said, in his coarse dialect, that the dance is the Devil's procession; and paint and ornaments, the whetting of the devil's sword; and the ring that is made in dancing, the devil's grindstone, whereon he sharpens his sword; and finally, that a ballet is the pomp and mass of the Devil, and whosoever entereth therein, entereth into his pomp and mass; for the woman who singeth is the prioress of the Devil, and they that answer are clerks, and they that look on are parishioners, and the cymbals and flutes are the bells, and the musicians that play are the ministers, of the Devil."
Now the lamb bleateth stronger and waters run clear, And the day groweth longer and glad is the year? Now the mead-flowers jostle so thick as they stand, And singeth the throstle all over the land? The Men of the Steer sing: No cloud the day darkened, no thunder we heard, But the horns' speech we hearkened as men unafeared.
