"I was thinking of a man whom we saw at the play last night, the merchant, Adrian Van Zoon." Master Jonathan let his coattails fall from under his arms, and then he deliberately gathered them up again. "A wealthy and powerful merchant. He has ships on many seas." "I have inferred that Mr. Hardy does not like him." "Considering my words carefully, I should say that Mr. Hardy does not like Mr.

They were still walking in the most casual manner, their faces bent to the driving snow, and almost hidden by the collars of their cloaks. "What can Adrian Van Zoon and I have in common?" asked Robert. "Lad, I bid thee again to beware of him! Look to it that you do not fall into his treacherous hands!" His sudden use of the pronoun "thee," and his intense earnestness, stirred Robert deeply.

Wish I was a little boy again with a straw hat and a tin bucket, gathering blackberries and listenin' to the June bugs! Zoon Zoon Zoon! O Lord! listen to that shell! Sho! that wasn't much. I'm getting to kind of like the fuss. There ain't so many of them screeching now, anyhow!" A lieutenant raised his voice. "Their fire is slackening. Don't reckon they're tired of it, sir?

He marriet her pecause zhe was fair to look upon and very rish; her fader made her marry him pecause he was a lort; he zoon tied and left her a witow, ant zhe never marriet again; zhe left te country and vas away many years ant I have nod zeen her zince. My fair kinswoman! Zhe hat a great wrong done her!" said the Jew, dropping his chin upon his chest and falling into sad and penitential reverie.

And stepping into the scullery, where old Josyna was washing some dishes, he addressed her "Mother, I'm sadly afraid this great fire will reach us before our master will allow us to move. Hadn't you better let me take care of the money you intended giving me on my marriage with Patience?" "No, no, myn goed zoon," replied Josyna, shaking her head "I musd zee you married virsd."

Peter is not a lad of brilliant appearance, which iss perhaps all the better for our purpose, but he will keep Van Zoon in sight, if it iss humanly possible, without being himself suspected." "Well done, Jacobus, but I might have known that you would take all needful precautions."

But there iss one thing which you do not know, but which you ought to know, because it iss of much importance." "What is it?" asked Hardy, impressed by the manner of Jacobus. "It iss the fact that Adrian Van Zoon arrived in Albany this morning." The merchant started slightly in surprise, and then his face became a mask. "Adrian Van Zoon is a merchant like myself," he said.

"Bud 'ow would she be zafer wiz a young woman, ignorant and " cried the baroness, furious at this attempt to usurp her authority. "Goot!" cried the archduke cutting her short; and his face beamed at the thought of escaping forthwith to his home. "Eet shall be zo! And ze baroness shall go alzo to Cassel-Nassau zo zoon az I zend a lady who do as ze doctors zay."

It was likely that it would always remain hidden from him unless some day he should wrench it from Adrian Van Zoon. Robert went into the sea nearly every morning. As he was a powerful swimmer and the weather remained calm, he was in the habit of going out beyond the reefs, but one day he noticed a fin cutting the water and coming toward him.

And in the market place of Zoon caravans were astir that set out to carry merchandise to Istahn, and afterwards passed camels coming to Alatta with many tinkling bells. All this the King saw as he pondered much, who had not pondered before. Westward the Agnid mountains frowned in the distance guarding the river Eidis; behind them the fierce people of Zeenar lived in a bleak land.
