Blithelygo good-naturedly joined in the laugh that went round the table; for nearly all there had personal experience of "uniformed savages." As the ladies rose Miss Angel said naively to Blithelygo: "You ought to spend a month in Aden, Mr. Blithelygo. Don't go by the next boat, then you can study uniforms here." We settled down to our cigars. Major Warham was an officer from Bombay.
Warham, however, as we shall see, had changed his mind: he declined, on the plea of age, and the office of chancellor was given to Sir Thomas More, perhaps the person least disaffected to the clergy who could have been found among the leading laymen.
Stevens seemed disquieted and looked around him suspiciously. "What! you here, Ben?" "Ay, you see me! You didn't expect to see me, Warham " "Hush!" was the whispered word of Stevens, again looking round him in trepidation. "Oh! ay!" said the other with a sly chuckle, and also in a whisper, "Mr. Stevens Brother Stevens hem! I did not think. How is your holiness to-day?"
At last Warham hit upon the expedient of one of those saving phrases which might mean everything or nothing, and yet could not be objected to on the face of it; inserting the words "so far as the laws of Christ permit": the precise degree to which the said laws did permit being susceptible of unlimited argument, as the royal claims or the clerical conscience might respectively demand.
"If the boy wants Ruth and she wants him, why, well and good. But you'll only make a mess interfering. Let the young people alone." "I'm surprised, George Warham," cried Fanny, "that you can show so little sense and heart." "To hear you talk, I'd think marriage was a business, like groceries." Mrs. Warham thought it was, in a sense.
Warham and Mountjoy had passed away before More and Fisher; Peter Gilles, so many years younger than he, had departed in 1533; also Pirckheimer had been dead for years.
Susan soon awakened, rather because the surrey was pitching so wildly than because of Goslin's denunciations. A brief level stretch and they stopped for Warham to open the outer gate into his brother Zeke's big farm. A quarter of a mile through wheat to the tops of the wheels and they reached the second gate.
But it worked beneath the surface, and could not be taken to indicate an approaching convulsion. The greatest Churchmen of the day, Morton, Warham and Fox, were absorbed albeit reluctantly in affairs of State.
"What's this I hear," cried Warham, laughing, "about you two girls setting your caps for Sam Wright?" And his good-humored brown eyes glanced at Ruth, passed on to Susan's wealth of wavy dark hair and long, rounded form, and lingered there.
But there is one thing I have been thinking of, though you have never mentioned it." "What is that?" "The boys. I hope they will not be falling in love with Gwendolen." "Don't presuppose anything of the kind, my dear, and there will be no danger. Rex will never be at home for long together, and Warham is going to India.
