The only thing will be not to lose one's footing; one can't miss the way, at any rate, and when once we get to Bardlyn it's as easy to get down to the road which runs round it to Saint Winifred's as it is to walk across the school court." "Cross the Razor?" said Kenrick; "why, none but some few shepherds ever dare to do that." "True, but what man has done, man can do.
I'm very glad it was you and no one else, though it was a horrid, horrid moment when you laid your hand on my shoulder. Yet even this isn't so bad as to have gone on nursing the guilt secretly, and not to have been detected." Kenrick was musing; the boy who could talk like that was clearly one who might have beer, very unlike what Wilton then was.
If you haven't, it's easy to say `No'; if you have, I only want you to say `Yes." "But you never told me that I wasn't to " "Yes or no?" said Kenrick, with an impatient gesture. "Well, I suppose I must say `Yes, then; but hear me explain. I only mentioned it to " "That's enough, thank you. I don't want to hear any more.
To Power he left his desk; to Henderson, his microscope; to Kenrick, a little gold pencil-case; and to Walter, a treasure which he deeply valued, a richly-bound Bible, in which he had left many memorials of the manner in which his days were spent; and in which he had marked many of the rules which were the standard of his life, and the words of hope which sustained his gentle and noble mind.
Walter came up to him as cordially as usual, but stopped short in surprise, when he caught the scornful lowering expression of his friend's face; but as Kenrick did not speak at once, he took him by the hand, and said, "Why, Ken, what's the matter?" Kenrick very coldly withdrew his hand.
In the course of their examination before the headmaster, Jones, with a meanness and malice thoroughly characteristic, had said, "that he did not know there was any harm in going to Dan's, because Kenrick, one of the monitors, had done the same thing."
"Kenrick, I happened to be hunting out the classroom cupboard just now for a book I'd mislaid, when I found a book with your name in it an Herodotus; so I thought I'd bring it you." "By Jove!" said Wilton, "talk of " "Herodotus, and he'll appear," said Kenrick; "how very odd. It's mine, sure enough! I lost it, as I was just telling Wilton, I don't know how long ago.
Happily the rope checked Power's fall, and Kenrick's scream of horror startled Giles, who, without losing his presence of mind, instantly seized Kenrick with an arm that seemed as strong and inflexible as if it had been hammered out of iron, while at the same moment Walter, conscious of his rashness, clutched hold of Power's hand and raised him up.
"Behold I bring you now the silver prizes, Meant to reward your feets and exercises." Even Walter could not help smiling at this sally, but he said at once, "You must keep both prizes, Flip; I don't mean to take either indeed I won't; I shouldn't have gone in at all but for you." "Oh, do take one," said Kenrick; "the fellows will think you too proud if you don't."
"He is the most charming boy I ever saw," said Lady Power, "and I rejoice that you have chosen him as a friend. But you don't tell me anything about Kenrick, of whom you were once so fond; how is that?" "I am still fond of him, mother, but he has changed a good deal lately."
