The words gained a new and blessed meaning in his eyes. 'Well, he said, 'the time, at least, of their fulfilment is far enough off. Union-workhouses and child-murder don't look much like it. Talking of that, Tregarva, what is to become of your promise to take me to a village wake, and show me what the poor are like? 'I can keep it this night, sir.
A velveteen shooting-jacket, a pair of corduroy trousers, and a waistcoat, furnished by Tregarva, covered with flowers of every imaginable hue, tolerably disguised Lancelot, who was recommended by his conductor to keep his hands in his pockets as much as possible, lest their delicacy, which was, as it happened, not very remarkable, might betray him.
'Look here; tell me if you know for whom this sketch is meant? 'Tregarva, the keeper: who can doubt? answered they both at once. 'Has not Mellot succeeded perfectly? 'Yes, said Lancelot. 'But what wonder, with such a noble subject! What a grand benevolence is enthroned on that lofty forehead! 'Oh, you would say so, indeed, interposed Honoria, 'if you knew him!
'No. . . . Certainly, Tregarva spoke of his conversion as of a turning to one of whom he had known all along, and disregarded. 'Then do you turn like him, to Him whom you have known all along, and disregarded. 'Yes you! If half I have heard and seen of you be true, He has been telling you more, and not less, of Himself than He does to most men.
And it was one which, on the whole granting, for the sake of argument, any real, living, or practical existence to That Being, might be a radical one it brought him many hours of thought, that saying; and when they were over, he rose up and went to find Tregarva. 'Yes, he is the man.
'There seems very little here to see, said Lancelot, half peevishly. 'I think, sir, quoth Tregarva, 'that very thing is what's most worth seeing.
But indeed their only purpose consisted in their influence on his development, and that of Tregarva; I do not see that we have any need to follow them farther. The reader can surely conjecture their history for himself. . . . He may be pretty certain that they have gone the way of the world . . . abierunt ad plures . . . for this life or for the next.
I appeal to common sense and logic . . . It was revealed to Tregarva that God had been loving him while he was yet a bad man. If He loved him, in spite of his sin, why should He not have loved you? 'If He had loved me, would He have left me in ignorance of Himself? For if He be, to know Him is the highest good. 'Had he left Tregarva in ignorance of Himself?
'If you follow us, we'll fire at you, as sure as the moon's in heaven! 'Fire away, then! I'll follow you to ! and the old man paced stealthily but firmly up to them. Tregarva saw his danger and sprang forward, but it was too late. 'What, you will have it, then?
For all their being shrunk with age and weather, you won't see such fine-grown men anywhere else in this booth. It was too true. Lancelot recollected now having remarked it before when at church; and having wondered why almost all the youths were so much smaller, clumsier, lower-brained, and weaker-jawed than their elders. 'Why is it, Tregarva?
