The worship is the more politically important because it is the worship of the political superior for the political inferior. At an election the non-titled are much more powerful than the titled. Certain individual peers have, from their great possessions, great electioneering influence, but, as a whole, the House of Peers is not a principal electioneering force.
But Nina had nothing to say. "There's one thing I can do for her," he continued. "You know how fond actors and actresses are of titled folks. Well, Miss Burgoyne is going down to Henley Regatta with a lot of other professionals, and I am going too, with another party Lady Adela Cunyngham has got a house-boat there.
She cannot understand them, for she has nothing to understand them with. It takes nobility of heart to understand nobility of heart. It takes an unselfishness of purpose to understand unselfishness of purpose. "What do they want?" cries the Gentle Lady. "Why some of them are rich women some of them are titled women. Why don't they mind their own business and attend to their own children?"
"Tied him to a tree and shot him to death with arrows. How he did scream!" "What! didst thou see such a sight, a young boy like thee?" "Yes," said Martin innocently; "why shouldn't I?" There was a pause. "Poor child," said the prior. "My boy, thou should say 'my lord, when addressing a titled earl." "I did not know, my lord. I beg pardon, my lord, if I have been rude, my lord."
It came out just when the girl was becoming resigned to her future by his side, and it attracted even more attention than the author had hoped it would achieve. The book was titled "Revised Versions," and it was strikingly modern in design and in tone.
The pontiff, with a clearer idea of the import of the inscription, protested against it, but in vain; so the titled King, looking from the knoll with dying eyes, must have had the city of his fathers at rest below him she who had so ignominiously cast him out.
Just then La Salle sailed for France with strong letters from Frontenac. Imagine the rage of his opponents when he returned not only master of the fort, but a titled man, the Sieur de La Salle, with the King's patent in his pocket giving him a princely grant of many square miles on the mainland and the adjacent islands!
The German girl of that age, if not a member of the titled aristocracy, is seldom taught at home, except in music, and perhaps in drawing; private instruction being indeed too expensive even for the best families; neither is she sent to a boarding-school, if a moderately good day-school is at all accessible.
Quintin Manx, the millionnaire, was an acquaintance of the new Judge and titled dignitary, Sir Cramborne Wathin, and she visited Lady Wathin, at whose table the report in the journals of the Nile-boat party was mentioned. Lady Wathin's table could dispense with witty women, and, for that matter, witty men. The intrusion of the spontaneous on the stereotyped would have clashed.
Strangers to modern life, humble yet proud, these needy aristocrats lived in the upper stories of sleepy, old-world houses. From top to bottom of their dwellings the tenants were titled, but money seemed just as scarce on the ground floor as in the attics.
