Suddenly he felt utterly wretched about himself, and he broke down helplessly. "Now, now!" said Strom, raising his head. "Is it your turn now? Have you, too, something wicked to repent of, or what is it?" "I don't know." "You don't know? That's almost like the women crying is one of their pleasures.
"Es bildet ein Talent sich in der Stille, Sich ein Charakter in dem Strom der Welt." Goethe.
Pelle forgot his own need and listened, rigid with terror, to this conflict with the powers of evil. Patiently, through his clenched teeth, in a voice broken by weeping, Strom attacked the throng of tiny devils with words from the Bible. "I'll do something to you at last that'll make you tuck your tails between your legs!" he cried, when he had read a little.
Apion. ii. Section 36; Cic. De Fin. v. 25; Clem. Alex. Strom, 1, xxii. 150, xxv. v. 14; Euseb.; Prof. Evang. x. 4, ix. 5, &c.; Lactant. Inst. There is something very touching in this fact; but, if there be something very touching, there is also something very encouraging.
That another person should cry melted something in Pelle, and filled him with a feeble sense of something living; he raised himself on his elbows and listened to Strom struggling with terror, while cold shudders chased one another down his back. People said that Strom lived here because in his youth he had done something at home.
The girl caught the malignant note in his voice, and she leaned outward a little, trying to see his face, while she shivered with dread. "Yes," laughed Lawson; "a man can cash in without any excuse, usual; all he's got to do is to cross Deveny. You're a damned fool, Strom, to go to takin' a shine to Barbara Morgan, when Deveny wants her.
But when Brede saw that this plan would never come to anything, he hit on another. After all, there was no great catch in marrying into Inger's lot Inger who had been in prison. And there were other lads to be thought of besides those two Sellanraa boys there was Axel Ström, for instance.
Isn't it a great thing to perform manual labor too? Karen has piano lessons now, just as I've always wished, for she's weakly and can't stand any hard work. You should just come home with me and hear her play she does it so easily too! Poor people's children have talent too, it's just that no one notices it." "God, how he talks!" said Strom, crying. "It's almost as if he had the delirium."
Axel Ström has promised to take part in the work, seeing that he has a horse and uses the road himself but Axel had pressing business in the town just then. Heaven knows what it could be, but very pressing, he said it was. But he had asked his brother from Breidablik to work with them in his stead. Fredrik was this brother's name.
Astonished, Pelle raised his head and gazed at Emil uncomprehendingly. "What use is it if a poor devil tries to make his way up? He'll always be pushed down again!" said Olsen. "Just look at the 'Great Power'; could any one have had a better claim than he? No, the big folks don't allow us others to make our way up!" "And have we allowed it ourselves?" muttered Strom.
