Eighty years had they been lying in the wine-bin of the Inn, guarding their treasure of Imperial Tokay. Now, their ward was ended and the supper was complete; though, in truth, it had been complete before. And, when we had eaten the supper and had drunk most of the Tokay, we freshened up the glasses with what remained.
"Come, you are better now," said Kilkee, "and will be quite well when you get some supper, and a little of the tokay, his majesty has been good enough to send us." "His majesty desires to know if his excellency is better," said an aide de camp. I muttered my most grateful acknowledgments.
If so, he is an incapable. He presumes it is not so. Come along; we will drink to her in essence of Tokay. You shall witness two scenes. Away!" Wilfrid was barely to be roused from his fit of brooding into which Pericles had thrown him. He sent the letters, and begged to be left to sleep. The image of Vittoria seen through this man's mind was new, and brought a new round of torments.
Now, my friend, one bit of paper, and a messenger, and zen home to my house, to Tokay and cigarettes, and wait to see." He remarked after pencilling a few lines, "Countess d'Isorella is her enemy? hein!" "Why, you wouldn't listen to me when I told you," said Wilfrid.
And see! look at this label. Tokay, friends real Tokay! Mow many of you ever had the opportunity of drinking real Tokay before?" A long deep sigh from a half-dozen throats, in which some strong but hitherto repressed passion, totally incomprehensible to me, found sudden vent, rose in one simultaneous sound from about that table, and I heard one jocular voice sing out: "Pass it around, Smead!
By Saint Louis, though it is an excellent thing to fill the stomach, especially with Tokay, yet there is no reason in the world why we should not fill the head too. But here we are. Adieu, Monsieur Devereux: we shall see you at the Palace." Two or three days after my adventure with the Regent, I thought it expedient to favour that eccentric prince with a visit.
I will tell you an instance Do you like these Hungary wines, by the by? Dinner, as usual, all drunk with Tokay, and finished by a quart of brandy each, from her Majesty's own hand. Carried off to sleep, some in the garden, some in the wood. Woke at four, still in the clouds.
The isolation and poverty in which he formed his mind and style deepened the peculiarity which was a characteristic of these. The grapes from which Tokay is made are left hanging even when the snow is on them; all the better for Tokay! His youth, then, was a long and hard struggle to get bread in exchange for wit; a struggle like that of the poor girls who sell violets in the streets.
He was served on the knee, and only by pages of noble blood, fed upon plate of silver, and drank his Tokay and Rhenish wines from a cup of gold.
A long-continued irregularity of income, also, disposed him to make the most of any favourable moment; and when a few rouleaus of gold brought the means of enjoyment, the Champagne and Tokay began to flow. This course is unhappily no novelty in the shifting life of genius, overworked and ill-rewarded, and seeking to throw off its cares in the pursuits and excitements of vulgar existence.
