"Light, light!" he whispered. "It cannot be too light for me!" "Now, William Tyrwhitt," I said, by-and-by, watchful of him, and marking a faint effusion of colour soak to his cheek, "you would not accept my warning, and you were extremely rude to me. Therefore you have had an experience " "An awful one," he murmured.
It was well after noon when the Essex sighted the flagship of Admiral Tyrwhitt, the Invincible, and reported for duty. Jack received instructions to lay to just west of the flagship. He obeyed. From time to time now other vessels appeared and reported to Admiral Tyrwhitt and were assigned places in the long line. Suddenly there was a cheer from the crews of the many ships.
Sintram was inspired by Albert Durer's engraving of the "Knight of Death," of which we give a presentation. It was sent to Fouque by his friend Edward Hitzig, with a request that he would compose a ballad on it. The date of the engraving is 1513, and we quote the description given by the late Rev. R. St. John Tyrwhitt, showing how differently it may be read.
Coulthurst and Tyrwhitt were introduced to the council of the Geographical Society, as being about to proceed at their own expense to the mouth of the Quorra, with the view of endeavouring to penetrate thence eastward to the Bahr-Abiad; and although their preparations were not on such a scale as to warrant any very sanguine hopes of success, yet it was felt to be a duty on the part of the society to patronize so spirited an undertaking.
Now, William Tyrwhitt, you must take a Turkish, bath and some cooling salts, and then come and tell me all about it again." "Ah! you don't believe me, I see. I never supposed you would. Good-night!" But, when he was gone, I sat ruminating. "That Captain Iron," I thought, "walked over the great rent in the floor without falling through. Well, well!"
In March 1871, Charles Tyrwhitt Drake, who had spent some months in England, arrived again in Damascus, and the Burtons begged him to be their permanent guest. Henceforth Mrs. Burton, Burton and Drake were inseparable companions, and they explored together "almost every known part of Syria." Mrs.
"You will report to Admiral Tyrwhitt," Jack's message read, "who will assign you to your station." Jack immediately got in touch with Admiral Tyrwhitt by wireless. The latter gave his position and informed the lad that his place in line would be next to the Admiral's flagship. "I thought Admiral Beatty would be up toward the front," said Jack. "He probably will," was Frank's reply.
William Tyrwhitt, that fated man, did otherwise. He accepted the vessel and drained it. "It smacks of all Castille," he said, handing it back with a sigh of ecstasy. "Who the devil are you, sir?" The stranger gave a little crow. "Peregrine Iron, sir, at your service Captain Penegrine Iron, of the Raven sloop amongst others. You are very welcome to the run of my poor abode." "Yours?"
There also left the press this year a work in two volumes entitled Unexplored Syria, by Burton and Tyrwhitt Drake. Some of the sayings have English analogues, thus: "He who wants nah Mustn't say ah;" "nah" being wealth or honour; "ah," the expression of fear or doubt.
It is but fair to say that Tyrwhitt, who had all the learning and more than the accuracy of Warton, inclines to Jonson's estimate of Scogan's character and employment. One John Kay, of whom we are singularly deficient in information, held the post of Court Poet under the amorous Edward IV. What were his functions and appointments we cannot discover.
