22nd. Up, and with Balty to St. James's, and there presented him to Mr. Wren about his being Muster-Master this year, which will be done. So up to wait on the Duke of York, and thence, with W. Coventry, walked to White Hall good discourse about the Navy, where want of money undoes us.
If I can get hold of It I shall just wish we were all in a certain place. And we shall be. And then I can deal with both of them." "Deal?" "Yes, the ring won't unwish anything you've wished. That undoes itself with time, like a spring uncoiling. But it'll give you a brand-new wish I'm almost certain of it. Anyhow, I'm going to chance it." "You are a rotter, aren't you?" said the boy respectfully.
But certain phrases he had used came back to her with tragic intensity. "Many a woman who can recuperate almost miraculously from organic disease fails to rally from shock we've been overlooking that too long." "Every sleepless night undoes the good that the sunshine during the daytime has wrought, and after many sleepless nights the days become simply horrible preludes to more terrors."
For us life is none too pleasant; but they need men's hands to find food for them, and at this rate there will soon be no men of our nation left." "But how can I help you?" asked the King. "That we know not; but it is your daughter Gwennolar who undoes us. She lies out yonder beneath the waters, and through the night she calls to men, luring them down to their death.
Is sowed as cummin or hempseed, with curses, and he thinks he thrives the better. He is far better read in the penal statutes than in the Bible, and his evil angel persuades him he shall sooner be saved by them. He can be no man's friend, for all men he hath most interest in he undoes. And a double dealer he is certainly, for by his good will he ever takes the forfeit.
Every day he undoes one of these knots and so knows when the time prescribed is finished. If you ask him whether it would not be better for him to learn to count at least as far as seven, a number that for one thing or another is frequently necessary in his life, he answers you invariably: "We know nothing. Our fathers did so and we too will do the same without being too fantastical".
The inventor undoes, decomposes, breaks up in thought, or makes of experience a tool, an instrument, a machine, an agency for building anew with the débris. The practical imagination is no more foreign to inspiration than the esthetic imagination.
We build everything up again at night, and Minnie sits there as good as gold, and never dreams of interfering. You can almost hear her cooing over us. Then, as I say, at two o'clock, just as the working party comes in and gets under cover, she lets slip one of her disgusting bombs, and undoes the work of about four hours. It was a joke at first, but we are getting fed up now.
"You're looking at his eyes all the time. That's what undoes you." He had to look away from her eyes then himself, or he felt quite suddenly that he, too, would have been undone. He had resisted the entreaty in women's eyes many times, but not always, despite the reputation he held for indifference. "Doctor Burns, won't you give me this one pleasure? You've really been quite firm all the morning."
Those things which men take most seriously, Schopenhauer has said, namely, love and religion, and we might add, morality, are the most abundant sources of the comic, because they involve the most strain and therefore offer the easiest chances for a playful release. Even utter and absolute nonsense is comical because it undoes all Kant's categories of mind.
