I don't know exactly what's the matter with him; but he keeps close inside the house; a sort of sick, and yet he don't look so. In fact, he ain't sick; but no, he isn't well either. Any how, young man, he won't always see me, so I don't suppose he will thee. He's a queer man, Captain Ahab so some think but a good one. Oh, thou'lt like him well enough; no fear, no fear.
"Thou'lt have a day in prison if thou'rt found here, Mère Madou," said a dragoon, as he struck the ass with the flat of his sabre. "I know it well," cried she, passionately; "but I have none to help me. Come here, lad; be good-natured, and forget what passed. Take his bridle while I whip him on."
He began to cry silently. "Nay, Nick, my lad, don't cry," said Heywood, gently; "'twill only make bad matters worse. Never is a weary while; but the longest lane will turn at last: some day thou'lt find thine home again all in the twinkling of an eye. Why, Nick, 'tis England still, and thou an Englishman. Come, give the world as good as it can send."
There let me cover thy head also thou'lt be warm the sooner." The King was back in dreamland before this speech was ended. Miles slipped softly out, and slipped as softly in again, in the course of thirty or forty minutes, with a complete second-hand suit of boy's clothing, of cheap material, and showing signs of wear; but tidy, and suited to the season of the year.
"Now, brother," he said busily to Momus, "if thou'lt lend me of thy height, thou shalt have of my agility and we will set up a douar for the lady." With frank composure he stripped off the burden of skins that covered him until he stood forth in a single hide of wool, with a tumble of sheep pelts at his feet.
And I, so mother says, am a better man than Polydeuces. Corydon. Well, off he has gone, with a shovel, and with twenty sheep from his flock here. Battus. Milo, thou'lt see, will soon be coaxing the wolves to rave! Corydon. But Aegon's heifers here are lowing pitifully, and miss their master. Battus. Yes, wretched beasts that they are, how false a neatherd was theirs! Corydon.
"Poor old Solomon! I never liked him, but we've had so many runs together." His hand dropped to his side with the rope, and he tottered, for the reed tuft seemed to be sinking. Solomon brayed again and fought desperately to free himself, but sank lower. "Heave, Dick, heave!" shouted Tom. "Throw it over, my lad! throw it over, or thou'lt be too late!" cried the wheelwright; but Dick did not move.
Thou'lt have Upclose at my death; and as for that, I could let thee have it now, and keep mysel' by doing a bit of charring. It seems to me a very backwards sort o' way of winning her to think of leaving Manchester." "Oh, mother, she's so gentle and so good she's downright holy. She's never known a touch of sin; and can I ask her to marry me, knowing what we do about Lizzie, and fearing worse?
"Thou'lt be the better for thy faint, Widow Lindsay," said the stranger, as she recovered, "seeing that what blood it has sent from thy heart, will be returned with the addition of that liquor which is truly the water of life. Dost forget, good widow, that, when I was last here, thou and Meg Johnston would have fought for a can of it, if I had not made the can two?
Thou'lt forgive me this sudden absence, Father? Dan put down his glass of sherbet and looked after his son. He had been so happy for a little while, and now unhappiness was by again.
