"Well, of course I do not know what Paradise is, but if it be according to my fancy, I should believe that garden is a piece of it." "Oh, I know I shall be pleased with the Princess, her garden with everything hers." Thereupon Lael settled back in her chair, and nothing more was said till the sedan halted in front of the Prince's door.
The rewards are great" he smiled blandly "and I should like to win one of them at least the first one, for I have seen the girl called Lael. She interested me, and I was in danger from her. On one occasion" he paused to throw a glance to Sergius "I even made advances to become acquainted with her, but she repulsed me. As the Prince of India says, she was fair to see.
"Yes, dear, to everybody but me," he answered, lightly, and asked in turn: "How do you like the palace?" "It will be wonderful!" "I have named it. Would you like to hear the name?" "It is something pretty, I know." "The Palace of Lael."
"With my promise of good welcome to him then," she said, well pleased, "be my messenger, Sir Governor, and say in the morning day after to-morrow at my palace by Therapia. And now thanks again, and farewell." So saying she held her hand to him, and he kissed it, and assisted her into the boat. The adieux of the others, the Prince of India, Sergius and Lael, were briefer.
He believed Lael fitted for the highest rank; she was already educated beyond the requirements of the age for women; her beauty was indisputable; as a consequence, he had thought of her a light in the court; and not unpleasantly it occurred to him now that the fair Princess might carry keys for both the inner and outer doors of the royal residence.
On the left hand were shops and pretentious houses; on the right, towered the harbor wall. The people attending the procession increased instead of dispersing; but as they continued in good nature, they gave him no concern. Their comments amongst themselves were about equally divided between Nilo and Lael.
The mental vigor of Appius in his old age is mentioned by Cic. in Tusc. 5, 112. CUM PYRRHO: note the position of the words between pacem and foedus, with both of which they go. This usage is called by the grammarians coniunctio; cf. n. on Lael. 8 cum summi viri tum amicissimi, also above, quae iuventute geruntur et viribus, below 18 quae sunt gerenda praescribo et quo modo.
The accusatives Brutum etc. are not the objects of recorder but the subjects of infinitives to be supplied from profectas. DUOS DECIOS: see n. on 43. CURSUM EQUORUM: the word equos would have been sufficient; but this kind of pleonasm is common in Latin; see n. on Lael. 30 causae diligendi. ATILIUS: i.e. Regulus, whose story is too well known to need recounting.
Her happiness shall be the measure of her love for me. That is the right way, is it not?" "My father is never wrong," Lael answered, laughing. "Flatterer!" he exclaimed, pressing her cheeks between his hands.... "Oh, I have it marked out already!
I passed on a long time before it came to me that we are rich in affections not intended for hoarding, and that no one can be truly content without at least one object on which to lavish them. Here" and he laid his hand on the child's head "here is mine, found at last." "Lael is a good girl," Uel said with pride. "Yes, and as thou lovest her let me love her," the Prince responded.
