Mario, to win freedom from youth's sweetest mistress illusion, and spend the twilight of old age groping for what they have lost." "Yours must be a barren outlook. If I thought all the world a mere dream of some wanton god I should lay down my pen for I should have nothing to say."
Henry was armed with a heavy claymore, the edge of which betokened that it had once seen much service in the wars of the youth's Scottish ancestors. Gascoyne, not anticipating this attack, had returned to the settlement armed only with his knife.
"Come!" called the leading lady quickly, in answer to the lank youth's footsteps, and before he had had time to knock. "Ring?" asked the boy, stepping into the torrid little room. The leading lady did not reply immediately. She swallowed something in her throat and pushed back the hair from her moist forehead again. The brown uniform repeated his question, a trifle irritably.
His beloved dead, who in the tumult of carnival mirth had vanished from his memory, again rose before his mind, among them the doctor, who gazed rebukingly at him with his clear, thoughtful eyes. Like an inspiration a thought darted through the youth's brain. He could and would paint Costa, his friend and teacher, Ruth's father.
"Ye was some sair upo' me, Ma'colm," he went on, grasping the youth's hand. "I doobt I was ower sair," said Malcolm, who could hardly speak for a lump in his throat. "Weel, I deserved it. But eh, Ma'colm! I canna believe it was me: it bude to be the drink."
Though she was too far from him to be at all certain, he had sensed something of youth's own in the very quality of her gesture. Then suddenly he clapped his spurs to his horse's sides and went racing down the slope toward the spot where an instant ago she had made such a gay contrast to dull verdure and gray boulders.
To sit down on the fire he knew would be death, therefore he bounded over it backwards and fell into Lawrence's lap, crushing that youth's plate almost into the region where the soup had already gone, and dashing his feet into the tureen! Lawrence roared; Manuela shrieked; Pedro sprang up and seized his weapons. So did Lawrence and his man, regardless of the soup.
Griefs of loss, bitter, poignant; sorrows of mistakes, bruising, numbing; the ache of disappointments, ingratitudes, betrayals, Nature surging on to her fulfillment sweeps them away, like fences before a flood, allowing no obstructions to Youth's kinship with Spring. So the young may not mourn long; so, if they do, they become no longer young.
A knowledge of the world was a necessary part, indeed the chief part, of a youth's training for life. The remarkable thing is that this applied also to a large extent to the daughters.
She is evidently the mistress or the wife of the chief, in whoso absence an act of vulgar violence may be meditated. The youth's life is saved: for that cause rarely fails, to which a woman brings the omnipotence of her feelings.
