"Who's that?" "Melchitsedek Pinchas, the poet I told you of." "I suppose he writes in Hebrew." "No, if he did the translation would be plain sailing enough. The trouble is that he will write in English. I must admit, though, he improves daily.
I'm so glad it didn't really enter your great stupid, clever old head that I was likely to care for Pinchas." "My dear daughter, Pinchas wished to take you to wife, and I felt pleased. It is a union with a son of the Torah, who has also the pen of a ready writer. He asked me to tell you and I did." "But you would not like me to marry any one I did not like." "God forbid!
Goldwater, Pinchas added zestfully. 'They say she has a Yiddish accent, Elkan ventured again. The table roared louder. 'I have heard of Yiddish-Deutsch, cried Pinchas, 'never of Yiddish-Français! Elkan Mandle was frozen. By his disappointment he knew that he had been hoping to meet Gittel again that his resentment was dead. But the hope would not die.
"Ah, Pinchas, you are a devil of a chap," said Wolf, laughing. "And yet you say you are the poet of patriotism and Palestine." "Vy not? Vy should we lif here in captivity?

Pinchas had fastened upon him the responsibility for the omission of an article last week, and had come to believe that he was in league with rival Continental scholars to keep Melchitsedek Pinchas's effusions out of print, and so little Sampson dared not face the angry savant.

I will be the treasurer of the fund, Karlkammer do thou vote for me, for so our society shall flourish as the green bay tree." Karlkammer grunted vaguely, not having humor enough to recall the usual associations of the simile, and Pinchas passed on to salute Hamburg. To Gabriel Hamburg, Pinchas was occasion for half-respectful amusement.
But the leading actress threw up her part at the last moment, disgusted by the poet's amorous advances; Pinchas volunteered to play the part himself and, although his offer was rejected, he attired himself in skirts and streaked his complexion with red and white to replace the promoted second actress, and shaved off his beard. But in spite of this heroic sacrifice, the gods were unpropitious.
To the delight of Melchitsedek Pinchas, Gideon, M.P., intervened at the eleventh hour, unceremoniously elbowing Simon Wolf out of his central position.
"Ten shillings on every pound if he does not want a big salary," said De Haan instantly, "and twelve and sixpence on every pound if he does it for nothing." And Pinchas, who was easily bamboozled when finance became complex, went out to find Raphael.
"Ah, what is that?" said Pinchas. "I have an idea; a score of us meet to-night to discuss it." "Ah, yes! You have always ideas. You are a sage and a saint, Guedalyah. The Beth-Hamidrash which you have established is the only centre of real orthodoxy and Jewish literature in London.
