Ede looked indignant, but after a moment she recovered herself, and said severely and emphatically: 'Thank you, sir, but I'm a Christian woman. No offence, sir, but I don't think such things are right. 'Ah! don't you, indeed? replied the mummer, looking at her in blank astonishment.
"Only shows how much we owe the growing education of the masses to the drama. Talk of the press, the pulpit, the schoolroom " "I believe he was quoting an advertisement," interpolated Austin. "An ad., eh?" said the mummer, somewhat disconcerted. "Oh, well, I shouldn't be surprised. Of course I have nothing to do with such things. That's the business of the advance-agent.
Charlotte hesitated; then she went timidly on, at each step growing less Charlotte, the mummer of a minute, and more the anxious Pilgrim of all time. The lion's wrath waxed terrible at her approach; his roaring filled the startled air. I waited until they were both thoroughly absorbed, and then I slipped through the hedge out of the trodden highway, into the vacant meadow spaces.
Baxter's early religious teachers were more exceptionable than even the maudlin mummer whom Roberts speaks of, one of them being "the excellentest stage- player in all the country, and a good gamester and goodfellow, who, having received Holy Orders, forged the like for a neighbor's son, who on the strength of that title officiated at the desk and altar; and after him came an attorney's clerk, who had tippled himself into so great poverty that he had no other way to live than to preach."

Oscar's income dried up at the source.
"He ordered me to come here to-night and to shout 'Master, master, your mill is on fire, so that he might be able to leave without paying the mummers their dues. His mill is not on fire at all." "Strip him," said the first mummer. "Put him across the bench," said another. "Here's a skinner's knife for you," said a third.

Almost every editor of that period had a theatre feud at one day or another. On the luckless mummer who had incurred his displeasure he poured out the vials of his wrath. He incited audiences to riot.
When suddenly, precisely like a mummer who in his great moment winks at you to let you know it is make-believe, the general-duke's dignity melted into a smile. "After all," he said, "it's as well to lay an anchor to windward." My young lord settles scores with two foes at once.
