When David came down to his supper, all traces of the day's labor that were removable had disappeared. He was clean; and his working clothes had been laid aside for the cheap black-cloth suit, which he had been used to wear on Sundays while he was a student. Grave, gentle, looking tired but looking happy, with his big shock head of hair and a face rugged and majestical like a youthful Beethoven.
"Majestical roof, fretted with golden fire," is the part of heaven in which the planets move. It carries them round with it; it governs the tides; it stood with men for the type of irresistible regularity. Each of the planets naturally has a motion of its own, contrary in direction to that of the firmament, which was from east to west.
And then is repenting, or the greatest understanding of no worth to you: Perhaps you may tell me, that you have a Mistriss, who is fair, rich, young, wise, airy, and hath the very majestical countenance of a Queen upon her forehead; and that these are all reasons which oblige you to love her.
In his dark and flowing robe he came on majestical, holding his wand quite perfectly, and looking not merely self-possessed but as Rosamund afterwards put it "almost uplifted." Robin began to breathe hard as he gazed. From Mr. Thrush's shoulders the robe swung with his lordly movements. He reached the entrance.
You would not think it when you saw her big carriage rattling up to the drawing-room, and caught a glimpse of her plumes, lappets, and diamonds, waving over her ladyship's sandy hair and majestical hooked nose; you would not think it when you hear 'Lady Susan Scraper's carriage' bawled out at midnight so as to disturb all Belgravia: you would not think it when she comes rustling into church, the obsequious John behind with the bag of Prayer-books.
But the vision fades, the gorgeous shapes sweep on into darkness, and, waking from his revery, the artist sees before him only the dull walls of his narrow chamber; the canvas stretched a blank upon its frame; the works, maimed, crude, unfinished, of an inexperienced hand, lying idly around; and feels himself himself, but one moment before the creator of a world of wonders, the master spirit of shapes glorious and majestical beyond the shapes of men-dashed down from his momentary height, and despoiled both of his sorcery and his throne.
For though, of old, when reverence was in vogue, and indolence was not, the devotees of Nature, doubtless, used to stand and adore just as, in the cathedrals of those ages, the worshipers of a higher Power did yet, in these times of failing faith and feeble knees, we have the piazza and the pew. Very majestical lounge, indeed.
Smithson cleared his throat doubtfully, and in his stress of feeling he even relaxed a trifle that majestical erectness of carriage that had made him so valuable as a floor-walker. "She's not exactly a er a thief," he ventured. "You are trifling, Smithson," the owner of the store exclaimed, in high exasperation. "Not a thief!
The yachts were moving away yonder, majestical, swan-like, white sails shining against the blue. She closed her eyes, and tried to sleep; but sleep would not come. She was always listening listening for the dip of oars, listening for a snatch of melody from a mellow baritone whose every accent she knew so well. It came at last, the sound her soul longed for.
I have often suspected as much, and it is decidedly unfair. Now let me see if I cannot make something out of being such a monstrous clever fellow." Jurgen said aloud: "I do not wonder that no practising poet ever presumed to make a song of you. You are too majestical. You frighten these rhymesters, who feel themselves to be unworthy of so great a theme.
