Surely the same spirit dwelleth in you both! For me, I should show but as the shadow cast from her brightness. But I tell thee, roundhead, I love her better than ever roundhead could. 'I know not, Scudamore. Nor do I mean to judge thee when I say that no man who loves not the truth can love a woman in the grand way a woman ought to be loved.

"Your father," said the other, bringing his strong white teeth together with a click. "Like father, like son. The latter a detected rogue, gaol-bird, and slave; the former a d d canting, sniveling Roundhead hypocrite and traitor, with a text ever at hand to excuse parricide and sacrilege." Landless sprang forward and struck him in the face.

The following morning another rumour was abroad to the effect that his lordship was now occupied in questioning the stars as to who in the castle had aided the young roundhead in making his escape. In the evening, soon after supper, there came a gentle tap to the door of lady Margaret's parlour. At that time she was understood to be disengaged, and willing to see any of the household.

'This is young Mr. Heywood of Redware, he said, and moved towards the wicket, leaning on Richard's arm. But the old warder stepped in front, and stood between them and the gate. 'Not a damned roundhead of the pack shall set foot across this door-sill, so long as I hold the gate, he cried, with a fierce gesture of the right arm. And therewith he set his back to the wicket.

During the Parliamentary wars Winchester was a storm center and the cathedral suffered severely at the hands of the Parliamentarians. Yet fortunately, many of its ancient monuments and furnishings escaped the wrath of the Roundhead iconoclasts. The cathedral is one of the oldest in England, having been mainly built in the Ninth Century.

"I don't know what he means; but he doesn't hunt down a common Roundhead out of thousands with nothing but 'duty' in his head; that's not Master Wilfrey Lawson's way." "But this man was a captain of the trained bands latterly," said the little constable. "Fellow," he cried to Mr.

"Welcome, Oswald," said Edward. "And welcome to you also, my fine lad," replied Oswald. "I have been hard questioned about you since we parted first, by the Roundhead Heatherstone, who plied me in all manner of ways to find out whether you are what you assert, the grandson of Jacob, or some other person.

"Children of Satan!" he said at last, recovering his breath during their laughter "Imps of darkness!" he added, holding out both hands in front, as he would keep them from contaminating him by their touch "if that ye ever hope for pardon " "I told ye he was a Roundhead a negotiator," shouted one of the rudest; "stop his gab at once yard-arm him."
