FOOTNOTES :There were several works published about this time containing the results of the various writers \u2019 experiences and observations in the new plantations in America .You acquired citizenship in right of your father , and without personal service .An allusion to Godfrey of Boulogne or Bulloigne .Innocent , it must be remembered , in the language of our old dramatic writers , denotes an idiot .Doll Tearsheet says of Pistol , in the \u201c Second Part of Henry IV ., \u201d \u201c These villains will make the word captain as odious as the word occupy , which , was an excellent good word before it was ill-sorted , \u201d]\u201c Tallies , \u201d says Johnson , \u201c are sticks cut in conformity to others , by which accounts were kept . \u201d Jack Cade reproaches the Lord Say , \u201c with having caused printing to be used , whereas before no other books were made use of by their forefathers but the score and tally . And Cade has the Exchequer Office on his side , where accounts are still partially kept after this most barbarous fashion . \u201dThe name of a tooth-drawer , real or imaginary , who attended fairs . In 1592 Chettle printed his tract called \u201c Kindhart 's Dream . \u201d Dilke observes : \u201c I am inclined to think , however , that kind-heart was the \u2018 travelling name \u2019 of some notorious quack tooth-drawer , or a cant name given to the whole race of them . So the stage-keeper , in the induction to \u2018 Bartholomew Fair , \u2019 when expressing his fear of the author 's success , says : \u2018 He has ne'er a sword-and-buckler man in his fair , nor a little Davy , to take toll of the bawds there , as in my time ; nor a kind-heart , if anybody 's teeth should chance to ake in his play . \u2019 And further , it is part of the \u2018 covenant and agreement , \u2019 in the same induction , that the audience shall not \u2018 look back to the sword-and-buckler age of Smithfield , but content themselves with the present . Instead of a little Davy , to take toll of the bawds , the author doth promise a strutting horse-courser , with a leer drunkard , two or three to attend him in as good equipage as you would wish . And then for kind-heart the tooth-drawer , a fine oily pig-woman , with , \u2019 \u201d & c ., & c .The artemisia or southern wood is meant .Jane has been too successful in her play on the names and qualities of the flowers to have chosen this at random ; and I am inclined to think the following extract from the \u201c Winter 's Tale \u201d will serve to elucidate her meaning \u2014 \u201c The fairest flowers o \u2019 the season Are our carnations and streak 'd gilliflowers .

FOOTNOTES :Dr Warburton observesthat in the persecutions of the Protestants in Flanders under Philip II . those who came over into England on that occasion brought with them the woollen manufactory . These being Calvinists were joined by those of the same persuasion from other countries , and amongst the rest from Geneva .Rosemary was anciently supposed to strengthen the memory , and was therefore distributed at marriages and funerals .

THE EPILOGUE AT WHITEHALL . The author was deceiv 'd ; for , should the parts And play which you have seen plead rules and arts , Such as strict critics write by , who refuse T \u2019 allow the buskin to the Comic Muse ; Whose region is the people , every strain Of royalty being tragic , though none slain ; He 'd now , Great Sir , hold all his rules untrue , And think his best rules are the Queen and You . He should have search 'd the stories of each age , And brought five acts of princes on the stage ; He should have taken measure , and rais 'd sport From persons bright and glorious as your court , And should have made his argument to be Fully as high and great as they that see . Here , he confesseth , you did nothing meet , But what was first a comedy i \u2019 th \u2019 street : Cheapside brought into verse ; no passage strange To any here that hath been at th \u2019 Exchange . Yet he hopes none doth value it so low , As to compare it with my Lord Mayor 's Show . \u2018 Tis so unlike that some , he fears , did sit , Who , missing pageants , did o'ersee the wit . Since then his scene no pomp or highness boasts , And low things grac 'd show princes princes most , Your royal smiles will raise't , and make him say , He only wrote , your liking made , the play . THE EPILOGUE AT BLACKFRIARS . Once more the Author , ere you rise , doth say , Though he have public warrant for his play , Yet he to the King 's command needs the King 's writ To keep him safe , not to be arraign 'd for wit . Not that he fears his name can suffer wrack From them who sixpence pay and sixpence crack , To such he wrote not ; though some parts have been So like here , that they to themselves came in . To them who call't reproof to make a face , Who think they judge , when they frown i \u2019 th \u2019 wrong place , Who , if they speak not ill o \u2019 th \u2019 poet , doubt They lose by the play , nor have their two shillings out ; He says , he hopes they 'll not expect he 'd woo , The play being done , they 'd end their sour looks too . But before you , who did true hearers sit , Who singly make a box , and fill the pit , Who dothis comedy read , and unseen , Had throng 'd theatres and Blackfriars been , He for his doom stands : your hands are his bays , Since they can only clap who know to praise .

On his return from Paris , being then at man 's estate , he was instructed at home in matters of history by his father , and became an accomplished gentleman . He married Lucia , daughter of William Lord Powis , and is charged by Wood with running with the times , and being not unknown to Oliver Cromwell . He died the 30th of November 1654 , and was buried in the vault at Hendlip , by the bodies of his father and grandfather .

We know they bear them on their virtues bold , With blissful chastity so well content That , when their lives and loves abroad are told , All men admire their virtuous government ; Worthy to live where fury never came , Worthy to live where love doth always see , Worthy to live in golden trump of fame , Worthy to live and honoured still to be . Thus end our sorrows with the setting sun : Now draw the curtains , for our scene is done . R. W . THE WOUNDS OF CIVIL WAR . EDITION . The Wounds of Civill War .

Written by Thomas Lodge , Gent . O vita ! misero longa , faelici brevis . London , Printed by John Danter , and are to be sold at the signe of the Sunne in Paules Church-yarde . 1594 . 4to . MR. COLLIER 'S PREFACE .Thomas Lodge , in his \u201c Alarum against Usurers , \u201d 1584 , speaks of his \u201c birth , \u201d and of \u201c the offspring from whence he came , \u201d as if he were at least respectably descended ; and on the authority of Anthony Wood , it has been asserted by all subsequent biographers that he was of a Lincolnshire family .Thomas Salter , about the year 1580 , dedicated his \u201c Mirror of Modesty \u201d toLangbaine seems to be under a mistake when he states that Lodge was of Cambridge . Wood claims him for the University of Oxford ,where he traces him as early as 1573 , when he must have been about seventeen years old , if he were born , as is generally supposed , in 1556 . We are told by himself that he was a Servitor of Trinity College , and that he was educated under Sir Edward Hoby . At what time and for what cause Lodge left Oxford is not known ; but Stephen Gosson , in the dedication of his \u201c Plays Confuted in Five Actions , \u201d printed about 1582 ,accuses him of having become \u201c a vagrant person , visited by the heavy hand of God , \u201d as if he had taken to the stage , and thereby had incurred the vengeance of heaven . In 1584 , when Lodge answered Gosson , he was a student of Lincoln 's Inn ;and to \u201c his courteous friends , the Gentlemen of the Inns of Court , \u201d he dedicated his \u201c Alarum against Usurers . \u201d He afterwards , as he informs Lord Hunsdon , in the epistle before his \u201c Rosalynde , \u201d 1590 , \u201c fell from books to arms ; \u201d and he calls it \u201c the work of a soldier and a scholar , \u201d adding that he had sailed with Captain Clarke to the islands of Terceras and the Canaries . In 1596 , he published his \u201c Margarite of America , \u201d and he mentions that it was written in the Straits of Magellan , on a voyage with Cavendish . To this species of vagrancy , however , Gosson did not refer . That Lodge was vagrant in his pursuits we have sufficient evidence ; for , after having perhaps been upon the stage , having entered himself at Lincoln 's Inn , having become a soldier , and having sailed with Clarke and Cavendish , he went , according to Wood , to study medicine at Avignon .This change , if it took place at all , which may admit of doubt ,did not occur until after 1596 . In 1595 his \u201c Fig for Momus \u201d appeared . Besides Satires , it contains Epistles and Eclogues ; and in one of the latter Lodge speaks in his own person , under the character of \u201c Golde \u201d, and there states his determination no longer to pursue ill-rewarded poetry \u2014 \u201c Which sound rewards , since this neglected time , Repines to yield to men of high desert , I 'll cease to ravel out my wits in rhyme , For such who make so base account of art ; And since by wit there is no means to climb , I 'll hold the plough awhile , and ply the cart ; And if my muse to wonted course return , I 'll write and judge , peruse , commend and burn . \u201d The dedication of his \u201c Wit 's Misery , and the World 's Madness , \u201d is dated \u201c from my house , at Low Layton , 5th November 1596 . \u201d The principal reasons for supposing that Lodge studied medicine are the existence of a \u201c Treatise of the Plague , \u201d published by \u201c Thomas Lodge , Doctor in Physic , \u201d in 1603 , and of a collection of medical recipes in MS ., called \u201c The Poor Man 's Legacy , \u201d addressed to the Countess of Arundel , and sold among the books of the Duke of Norfolk .The author of the \u201c Treatise of the Plague \u201d expressly tells the Lord Mayor of London , in the dedication , that he was \u201c bred and brought up \u201d in the city . Thomas Heywood , in his \u201c Troja Britannica , \u201d 1609 , enumerates the celebrated physicians then living \u2014 \u201c As famous Butler , Pedy , Turner , Poe , Atkinson , Lyster , Lodge , who still survive . \u201d \u2014 C. 3 . It hardly deserves remark that Lodge is placed last in this list ; but had he been the same individual who had written for the stage , was the friend of so many dramatists , and was so well known as a lyric poet , it seems likely that Heywood would have said more about him .It is a singular coincidence , that having written how to prevent and cure the plague , he should die of that disease during the great mortality of 1625 . Wood 's expressions on this point , however , are not decisive : \u201c He made his last exitin September 1625 , leaving then behind him a widow called Joan . \u201d It has been conjecturedthat he was a Roman Catholic , from a statement made by one of his biographers that , while he practised medicine in London , he was much patronised by persons of that persuasion . There are but two existing dramatic productions on the title-pages of which the name of Lodge is found :the one he wrote alone , and the other in partnership with Robert Greene :\u2014The Wounds of Civill War . Lively set forth in the true Tragedies of Marius and Scilla , & c. Written by Thomas Lodge , Gent . 1594 , 4to .A Looking Glasse for London and Englande . Made by Thomas Lodge , Gentleman , and Robert Greene , in Artibus Magister . 1594 , 1598 , 1602 , 1617 , all in 4to .The most remarkable, and that which has been most often reprinted , is his \u201c Rosalynde \u201d which , as is well known , Shakespeare closely followed in \u201c As You Like It . \u201dAnterior to the date of any of his other pieces must have been Lodge 's defence of stage-plays , because Stephen Gosson replied to it about 1582 . It was long thought , on the authority of Prynne , that Lodge 's tract was called \u201c The Play of Plays , \u201d but Mr Malone ascertained that to be a different production . The only copy of Lodge 's pamphlet seen by Mr Malone was without a title , and it was probably the same that was sold among the books of Topham Beauclerc in 1781 . It is spoken of in \u201c The French Academy \u201das having \u201c lately passed the press ; \u201d but Lodge himself , in his \u201c Alarum against Usurers , \u201d very clearly accounts for its extreme rarity : he says , \u201c by reason of the slenderness of the subjectthe godly and reverent that had to deal in the cause , misliking it , forbad the publishing ; \u201d and he charges Gosson with \u201c comming by a private unperfect coppye , \u201d on which he framed his answer , entitled , \u201c Plays confuted in Five Actions . \u201d Mr Malonecontends that Spenser alludes to Lodge , in his \u201c Tears of the Muses , \u201d under the name of Alcon , in the following lines :\u2014 \u201c And there is pleasing Alcon , could he raise His tunes from lays to matters of more skill ; \u201d and he adds that Spenser calls Lodge Alcon , from one of the characters in \u201c A Looking Glasse for London and Englande ; \u201d but this argument would apply just as much to Lodge 's coadjutor Greene . Mr Malone further argues that Lodge , roused by this applause, produced not long afterwards a \u201c matter of more skill , \u201d in \u201c The Wounds of Civil War . \u201d THE MOST LAMENTABLE AND TRUE TRAGEDIES OF MARIUS AND SYLLA ."], "true_target": [""], "play_index": 121, "act_index": 0}, {"query": ["You , Roman soldiers , fellow-mates in arms ,", "The blindfold mistress of uncertain chance", "Hath turn 'd these traitorous climbers from the top ,", "And seated Sylla in the chiefest place \u2014", "The place beseeming Sylla and his mind .", "For , were the throne , where matchless glory sits", "Empal 'd with furies , threatening blood and death ,", "Begirt with famine and those fatal fears ,", "That dwell below amidst the dreadful vast ,", "Tut , Sylla 's sparkling eyes should dim with clear", "The burning brands of their consuming light ,", "And master fancy with a forward mind ,", "And mask repining fear with awful power :", "For men of baser metal and conceit", "Cannot conceive the beauty of my thought .", "I , crowned with a wreath of warlike state ,", "Imagine thoughts more greater than a crown ,", "And yet befitting well a Roman mind .", "Then , gentle ministers of all my hopes ,", "That with your swords made way unto my wish ,", "Hearken the fruits of your courageous fight .", "In spite of all these Roman basilisks ,", "That seek to quell us with their currish looks ,", "We will to Pontus : we 'll have gold , my hearts ;", "Those oriental pearls shall deck our brows .", "And you , my gentle friends , you Roman peers :", "Kind Pompey , worthy of a consul 's name ,", "You shall abide the father of the state ,", "Whilst these brave lads , Lucretius , and I ,", "In spite of all these brawling senators ,", "Will , shall , and dare attempt on Asia ,", "And drive Mithridates from out his doors .", "But , Pompey , if our Spanish jennets \u2019 feet", "Have learnt to post it of their mother-wind ,", "I hope to trip upon the greybeard 's heels ,", "Till I have cropp 'd his shoulders from his head .", "And for his son , the proud , aspiring boy ,", "His beardless face and wanton , smiling brows ,", "Shall , if I catch him , deck yond \u2019 capitol .", "The father , son , the friends and soldiers all ,", "That fawn on Marius , shall with fury fall .", "This \u2014 Sylla in fortune will exceed a king .", "But , friends and soldiers , with dispersed bands", "Go seek out Marius \u2019 fond confederates :", "Some post along those unfrequented paths ,", "That track by nooks unto the neighbouring sea :", "Murder me Marius , and maintain my life .", "And that his favourites in Rome may learn", "The difference betwixt my fawn and frown ,", "Go cut them short , and shed their hateful blood ,", "To quench these furies of my froward mood .", "Ay , that perhaps was fitly placed there :", "But , my Lucretius , these are cunning lords ,", "Whose tongues are tipp 'd with honey to deceive .", "As for their hearts , if outward eyes may see them ,", "The devil scarce with mischief might agree them .", "And why not general \u2018 gainst the King of Pontus ?", "Sirrah , your words are good , your thoughts are ill .", "Each milkwhite hair amid this mincing beard ,", "Compar 'd with millions of thy treacherous thoughts ,", "Would change their hue through vigour of thy hate .", "But , did not pity make my fury thrall ,", "This sword should finish hate , thy life , and all .", "I prythee , Granius , how doth Marius ?", "Both blunt and bold , but too much mother-wit .", "To play with fire , where fury streams about :", "Curtail your tale , fond man , cut off the rest ;", "But here I will dissemble for the best .", "You saw in Rome this brawling fencer die ,", "When Spectacus by Crassus was subdued .", "Why so ? but , sir , I hope you will apply ,", "And say like Spectacus that I shall die .", "Thus peevish eld , discoursing by a fire ,", "Amidst their cups will prate how men aspire .", "Is this the greeting , Romans , that you give", "Unto the patron of your monarchy ?", "Lucretius , shall I play a pretty jest ?", "A brief and pleasing answer , by my head .

I 'll give you black Urganda , to be spoiled With petting and snail-paces . Will you ? Come ! The story of the love of Mildred and Mertoun is the universally human one , and belongs to no one country or no one period of civilization more than another , but the attitude of all the actors in the tragedy belongs distinctively to the phase of moral culture which we saw illustrated in the youth of Sir Philip Sidney , and is characteristic of English ways of thinking whenever their moral force comes uppermost , as for example in the Puritan thought of the Cromwellian era . The play is in a sense a problem play , though to most modern readers the tragedy of its ending is all too horrible a consequence of the sin . Dramatically and psychically , however , the tragedy is much more inevitable than that of Romeo and Juliet , whose love one naturally thinks of in the same connection . The catastrophe in the Shakespeare play is almost mechanically pushed to its conclusion through mere external blundering , easily to have been prevented . Juliet saw clearly where Mildred does not , that loyalty to a deep and true love should triumph over all minor considerations , so that in her case the tragedy is , in no sense , due to her blindness of vision . In the \u201c Blot , \u201d lack of perception of the true values in life makes it impossible for Mildred or Tresham to act otherwise than they did . But having worked out their problem according to their lights , a new light of a more glorious day dawns upon them . The ideal by which Tresham lives and moves and has his being is that of pride of birth , with honor and chastity as its watchwords . At the same time the idol of his life is his sister Mildred , over whom he has watched with a father 's and mother 's care . When the blow to his ideal comes at the hands of this much cherished sister , it is not to be wondered at that his reason almost deserts him . The greatest agony possible to the human soul is to have its ideals , the very food which has been the sustenance of its being , utterly ruined . The ideal may be a wrong one , or an impartial one , and through the wrack and ruin may dawn larger vision , but , unless the nature be a marvelously developed one the storm that breaks when an ideal is shattered is overwhelming . It would be equally true of Mildred that , nurtured as she had been and as young English girls usually are , in great purity , even ignorance of all things pertaining to life , the sense of her sin would be so overwhelming as to blind her to any possible means of expiation except the most extreme . And indeed may it not be said that only those who can see as Mertoun and Guendolen did that genuine and loyal love is no less love because , in a conventional sense , it has sinned ,\u2014 only those would acknowledge , as Tresham , indeed , does after he has murdered Mertoun , how perfect the love of Mildred and Mertoun was . Sin flourishes only when insincerity tricks itself out in the garb of love , and on the whole it is well that human beings should have an abiding sense of their own and others insincerity , and test themselves by their willingness to acknowledge their love before God and man . There are many Mildreds but few Mertouns . It is little wonder that Dickens wrote with such enthusiasm of this play that he knew no love like that of Mildred and Mertoun , no passion like it .One does not need to discuss whether murders were possible in English social life . They are possible in all life at all times as long as men and women allow their passions to overthrow their reason . The last act , however , illustrates the English poise already referred to ; Tresham regains his equilibrium with enlarged vision , his salvation is accomplished , his soul awakened .

Remember me !GuendolenAh , Thorold , we can but \u2014 remember you ! In \u201c Ned Bratts , \u201d Browning has given a striking picture of the influence exerted by Bunyan upon some of his wicked contemporaries . The poet took his hints for the story from Bunyan himself , who tells it as follows in the \u201c Life and Death of Mr. Badman . \u201d \u201c At a summer assizes holden at Hertford , while the judge was sitting upon the bench , comes this old Tod into the Court , clothed in a green suit , with his leathern girdle in his hand , his bosom open , and all on a dung sweat , as if he had run for his life ; and being come in , he spake aloud , as follows : \u2018 My lord , \u2019 said he , \u2018 here is the veriest rogue that breathes upon the face of the earth . I have been a thief from a child : when I was but a little one , I gave myself to rob orchards and to do other such like wicked things , and I have continued a thief ever since . My lord , there has not been a robbery committed these many years , within so many miles of this place , but I have either been at it , or privy to it . \u2019 The judge thought the fellow was mad , but after some conference with some of the justices , they agreed to indict him ; and so they did of several felonious actions ; to all of which he heartily confessed guilty , and so was hanged , with his wife at the same time . \u201d Browning had the happy thought of placing this episode in Bedford amid the scenes of Bunyan 's labors and imprisonment . Bunyan , himself , was tried at the Bedford Assizes upon the charge of preaching things he should not , or according to some accounts for preaching without having been ordained , and was sentenced to twelve years \u2019 imprisonment in the Bedford Jail . At one time it was thought that he wrote \u201c Pilgrim 's Progress \u201d during this imprisonment , but Dr. Brown , in his biography of Bunyan conjectured that this book was not begun until a later and shorter imprisonment of 1675-76 , in the town prison and toll-house on Bedford Bridge . Dr. Brown supposes that the portion of the book written in prison closes where Christian and Hopeful part from the shepherds on the Delectable Mountains . \u201c At that point a break in the narrative is indicated \u2014 \u2018 So I awoke from my dream ; \u2019 it is resumed with the words \u2014 \u2018 And I slept and dreamed again , and saw the same two pilgrims going down the mountains along the highway towards the city . \u2019 Already from the top of an high hill called \u2018 Clear , \u2019 the Celestial City was in view ; dangers there were still to be encountered ; but to have reached that high hill and to have seen something like a gate , and some of the glory of the place , was an attainment and an incentive . \u201d There Bunyan could pause . Several years later the pilgrimage of Christiana was written . Browning , however , adopts the tradition that the book was written during the twelve years \u2019 imprisonment , and makes use of the story of Bunyan 's having supported himself during this time by making tagged shoe-laces . He brings in , also , the little blind daughter to whom Bunyan was said to be devoted . The Poet was evidently under the impression also that the assizes were held in a courthouse , but there is good authority for thinking that at that time they were held in the chapel of Herne . Nothing remains of this building now , but it was situated at the southwest corner of the churchyard of St. Paul , and was spoken of sometimes as the School-house chapel . Ned Bratts and his wife did not know , of course , that they actually lived in the land of the \u201c Pilgrim 's Progress . \u201d This has been pointed out only recently in a fascinating little book by A. J . Foster of Wootton Vicarage , Bedfordshire . He has been a pilgrim from Elstow , the village where Bunyan was born near Bedford , through all the surrounding country , and has fixed upon many spots beautiful and otherwise which he believes were transmuted in Bunyan 's imagination into the House Beautiful , The Delectable Mountains , Vanity Fair and so on through nearly all the scenes of Christian 's journey . The House Beautiful he identifies with Houghton House in the manor of Dame Ellen 's Bury . This is one of the most interesting of the country houses of England , because of its connection with Sir Philip Sidney 's sister , Mary Sidney . After the death of her husband , Lord Pembroke , James I. presented her with the royal manor of Dame Ellen 's Bury , and under the guidance of Inigo Jones , it is generally supposed , Houghton House was built . It is in ruins now and covered with ivy . Trees have grown within the ruins themselves . Still it is one of the most beautiful spots in Bedfordshire . \u201c In Bunyan 's time , \u201d Mr. Foster writes , \u201c we may suppose the northern slope of Houghton Park was a series of terraces rising one above another , and laid out in the stiff garden fashion of the time . A flight of steps , or maybe a steep path , would lead from one terrace to the next , and gradually the view over the plain of Bedford would reveal itself to the traveler as he mounted higher and higher . \u201d From Houghton House there is a view of the Chiltern Hills . Mr. Foster is of the opinion that Bunyan had this view in mind when he described Christian as looking from the roof of the House Beautiful southwards towards the Delectable Mountains . He writes , \u201c One of the main roads to London from Bedford , and the one , moreover , which passes through Elstow , crosses the hills only a little more than a mile east of Houghton House , and Bunyan , in his frequent journeys to London , no doubt often passed along this road . All in this direction was , therefore , to him familiar ground . Many a pleasant walk or ride came back to him through memory , as he took pen in hand to describe Hill Difficulty with its steep path and its arbor , and the House Beautiful with its guest-chamber , its large upper room looking eastward , its study and its armory . \u201c Many a time did Bunyan , as he journeyed , look southwards to the blue Chilterns , and when the time came he placed together all that he had seen , as the frame in which he should set his way-faring pilgrim . \u201d Pleasant as it would be to follow with Mr. Foster his journey through the real scenes of the \u201c Pilgrim 's Progress , \u201d our main interest at present is to observe how Browning 's facile imagination has presented the conversion , through the impression made upon them by Bunyan 's book , of Ned and his wife . NED BRATTS \u2018 T was Bedford Special Assize , one daft Midsummer 's Day : A broiling blasting June ,\u2014 was never its like , men say . Corn stood sheaf-ripe already , and trees looked yellow as that ; Ponds drained dust-dry , the cattle lay foaming around each flat . Inside town , dogs went mad , and folk kept bibbing beer While the parsons prayed for rain . \u2018 T was horrible , yes \u2014 but queer : Queer \u2014 for the sun laughed gay , yet nobody moved a hand To work one stroke at his trade : as given to understand That all was come to a stop , work and such worldly ways , And the world 's old self about to end in a merry blaze . Midsummer 's Day moreover was the first of Bedford Fair , With Bedford Town 's tag-rag and bobtail a-bowsing there . But the Court House , Quality crammed : through doors ope , windows wide , High on the Bench you saw sit Lordships side by side . There frowned Chief Justice Jukes , fumed learned Brother Small , And fretted their fellow Judge : like threshers , one and all , Of a reek with laying down the law in a furnace . Why ? Because their lungs breathed flame \u2014 the regular crowd forbye \u2014 From gentry pouring in \u2014 quite a nosegay , to be sure ! How else could they pass the time , six mortal hours endure Till night should extinguish day , when matters might haply mend ? Meanwhile no bad resource was \u2014 watching begin and end Some trial for life and death , in a brisk five minutes \u2019 space , And betting which knave would \u2018 scape , which hang , from his sort of face . So , their Lordships toiled and moiled , and a deal of work was doneto justify the mirth of the crazy sun As this and t'other lout , struck dumb at the sudden show Of red robes and white wigs , boggled nor answered \u201c Boh ! \u201d When asked why he , Tom Styles , should not \u2014 because Jack Nokes Had stolen the horse \u2014 be hanged : for Judges must have their jokes , And louts must make allowance \u2014 let 's say , for some blue fly Which punctured a dewy scalp where the frizzles stuck awry \u2014 Else Tom had fleered scot-free , so nearly over and done Was the main of the job . Full-measure , the gentles enjoyed their fun , As a twenty-five were tried , rank puritans caught at prayer In a cow-house and laid by the heels ,\u2014 have at \u2018 em , devil may care !\u2014 And ten were prescribed the whip , and ten a brand on the cheek , And five a slit of the nose \u2014 just leaving enough to tweak . Well , things at jolly high-tide , amusement steeped in fire , While noon smote fierce the roof 's red tiles to heart 's desire , The Court a-simmer with smoke , one ferment of oozy flesh , One spirituous humming musk mount-mounting until its mesh Entoiled all heads in a fluster , and Serjeant Postlethwayte \u2014 Dashing the wig oblique as he mopped his oily pate \u2014 Cried \u201c Silence , or I grow grease ! No loophole lets in air ? Jurymen ,\u2014 Guilty , Death ! Gainsay me if you dare ! \u201d \u2014 Things at this pitch , I say ,\u2014 what hubbub without the doors ? What laughs , shrieks , hoots and yells , what rudest of uproars ? Bounce through the barrier throng a bulk comes rolling vast ! Thumps , kicks ,\u2014 no manner of use !\u2014 spite of them rolls at last Into the midst a ball which , bursting , brings to view Publican Black Ned Bratts and Tabby his big wife too : Both in a muck-sweat , both ... were never such eyes uplift At the sight of yawning hell , such nostrils \u2014 snouts that sniffed Sulphur , such mouths a-gape ready to swallow flame ! Horrified , hideous , frank fiend-faces ! yet , all the same , Mixed with a certain ... eh ? how shall I dare style \u2014 mirth The desperate grin of the guest that , could they break from earth , Heaven was above , and hell might rage in impotence Below the saved , the saved ! \u201c Confound you !Out of our way ,\u2014 push , wife ! Yonder their Worships be ! \u201d Ned Bratts has reached the bar , and \u201c Hey , my Lords , \u201d roars he , \u201c A Jury of life and death , Judges the prime of the land , Constables , javelineers ,\u2014 all met , if I understand , To decide so knotty a point as whether \u2018 t was Jack or Joan Robbed the henroost , pinched the pig , hit the King 's Arms with a stone , Dropped the baby down the well , left the tithesman in the lurch , Or , three whole Sundays running , not once attended church ! What a pother \u2014 do these deserve the parish-stocks or whip , More or less brow to brand , much or little nose to snip ,\u2014 When , in our Public , plain stand we \u2014 that 's we stand here , I and my Tab , brass-bold , brick-built of beef and beer , \u2014 Do not we , slut ? Step forth and show your beauty , jade ! Wife of my bosom \u2014 that 's the word now ! What a trade We drove ! None said us nay : nobody loved his life So little as wag a tongue against us ,\u2014 did they , wife ? Yet they knew us all the while , in their hearts , for what we are \u2014 Worst couple , rogue and quean , unhanged \u2014 search near and far ! Eh , Tab ? The pedler , now \u2014 o'er his noggin \u2014 who warned a mate To cut and run , nor risk his pack where its loss of weight Was the least to dread ,\u2014 aha , how we two laughed a-good As , stealing round the midden , he came on where I stood With billet poised and raised ,\u2014 you , ready with the rope ,\u2014 Ah , but that 's past , that 's sin repented of , we hope ! Men knew us for that same , yet safe and sound stood we ! The lily-livered knaves knew tooOur keeping the \u2018 Pied Bull \u2019 was just a mere pretence : Too slow the pounds make food , drink , lodging , from out the pence ! There 's not a stoppage to travel has chanced , this ten long year , No break into hall or grange , no lifting of nag or steer , Not a single roguery , from the clipping of a purse To the cutting of a throat , but paid us toll . Od 's curse ! When Gipsy Smouch made bold to cheat us of our due , \u2014 Eh , Tab ? the Squire 's strong-box we helped the rascal to \u2014 I think he pulled a face , next Sessions \u2019 swinging-time ! He danced the jig that needs no floor ,\u2014 and , here 's the prime , \u2018 T was Scroggs that houghed the mare ! Ay , those were busy days ! \u201c Well , there we flourished brave , like scripture-trees called bays , Faring high , drinking hard , in money up to head \u2014 Not to say , boots and shoes , when ... Zounds , I nearly said \u2014 Lord , to unlearn one 's language ! How shall we labor , wife ? Have you , fast hold , the Book ? Grasp , grip it , for your life ! See , sirs , here 's life , salvation ! Here 's \u2014 hold but out my breath \u2014 When did I speak so long without once swearing ? \u2018 Sdeath , No , nor unhelped by ale since man and boy ! And yet All yesterday I had to keep my whistle wet While reading Tab this Book : book ? do n't say \u2018 book \u2019 \u2014 they 're plays , Songs , ballads and the like : here 's no such strawy blaze , But sky wide ope , sun , moon , and seven stars out full-flare ! Tab , help and tell ! I 'm hoarse . A mug ! or \u2014 no , a prayer ! Dip for one out of the Book ! Who wrote it in the Jail \u2014 He plied his pen unhelped by beer , sirs , I 'll be bail ! \u201c I 've got my second wind . In trundles she \u2014 that 's Tab . \u2018 Why , Gammer , what 's come now , that \u2014 bobbing like a crab On Yule-tide bowl \u2014 your head 's a-work and both your eyes Break loose ? Afeard , you fool ? As if the dead can rise ! Say \u2014 Bagman Dick was found last May with fuddling-cap Stuffed in his mouth : to choke 's a natural mishap ! \u2019 \u2018 Gaffer , be \u2014 blessed , \u2019 cries she , \u2018 and Bagman Dick as well ! I , you , and he are damned : this Public is our hell : We live in fire : live coals do n't feel !\u2014 once quenched , they learn \u2014 Cinders do , to what dust they moulder while they burn ! \u2019 \u201c \u2018 If you do n't speak straight out , \u2019 says I \u2014 belike I swore \u2014 \u2018 A knobstick , well you know the taste of , shall , once more , Teach you to talk , my maid ! \u2019 She ups with such a face , Heart sunk inside me . \u2018 Well , pad on , my prate-apace ! \u2019 \u201c \u2018 I 've been about those laces we need for ... never mind ! If henceforth they tie hands , \u2018 t is mine they 'll have to bind . You know who makes them best \u2014 the Tinker in our cage , Pulled-up for gospelling , twelve years ago : no age To try another trade ,\u2014 yet , so he scorned to take Money he did not earn , he taught himself the make Of laces , tagged and tough \u2014 Dick Bagman found them so ! Good customers were we ! Well , last week , you must know His girl ,\u2014 the blind young chit , who hawks about his wares ,\u2014 She takes it in her head to come no more \u2014 such airs These hussies have ! Yet , since we need a stoutish lace ,\u2014 \u201c I 'll to the jail-bird father , abuse her to his face ! \u201d So , first I filled a jug to give me heart , and then , Primed to the proper pitch , I posted to their den \u2014 Patmore \u2014 they style their prison ! I tip the turnkey , catch My heart up , fix my face , and fearless lift the latch \u2014 Both arms a-kimbo , in bounce with a good round oath Ready for rapping out : no \u201c Lawks \u201d nor \u201c By my troth ! \u201d \u201c \u2018 There sat my man , the father . He looked up : what one feels When heart that leapt to mouth drops down again to heels ! He raised his hand .... Hast seen , when drinking out the night , And in the day , earth grow another something quite Under the sun 's first stare ? I stood a very stone . \u201c \u2018 \" Woman ! \u201d, \u201c How should my child frequent your house where lust is sport , Violence \u2014 trade ? Too true ! I trust no vague report . Her angel 's hand , which stops the sight of sin , leaves clear The other gate of sense , lets outrage through the ear . What has she heard !\u2014 which , heard shall never be again . Better lack food than feast , a Dives in the \u2014 wain Or reign or train \u2014 of Charles ! \u201d\u201c Bread , only bread they bring \u2014 my laces : if we broke Your lump of leavened sin , the loaf 's first crumb would choke ! \u201d \u201c \u2018 Down on my marrow-bones ! Then all at once rose he : His brown hair burst a-spread , his eyes were suns to see : Up went his hands : \u201c Through flesh , I reach , I read thy soul ! So may some stricken tree look blasted , bough and bole , Champed by the fire-tooth , charred without , and yet , thrice-bound With dreriment about , within may life be found , A prisoned power to branch and blossom as before , Could but the gardener cleave the cloister , reach the core , Loosen the vital sap : yet where shall help be found ? Who says \u2018 How save it ? \u2019 \u2014 nor \u2018 Why cumbers it the ground ? \u2019 Woman , that tree art thou ! All sloughed about with scurf , Thy stag-horns fright the sky , thy snake-roots sting the turf ! Drunkenness , wantonness , theft , murder gnash and gnarl Thine outward , case thy soul with coating like the marle Satan stamps flat upon each head beneath his hoof ! And how deliver such ? The strong men keep aloof , Lover and friend stand far , the mocking ones pass by , Tophet gapes wide for prey : lost soul , despair and die ! What then ? \u2018 Look unto me and be ye saved ! \u2019 saith God : \u2018 I strike the rock , outstreats the life-stream at my rod ! Be your sins scarlet , wool shall they seem like ,\u2014 although As crimson red , yet turn white as the driven snow ! \u2019 \u201d \u201c \u2018 There , there , there ! All I seem to somehow understand Is \u2014 that , if I reached home , \u2018 t was through the guiding hand Of his blind girl which led and led me through the streets And out of town and up to door again . What greets First thing my eye , as limbs recover from their swoon ? A book \u2014 this Book she gave at parting . \u201c Father 's boon \u2014 The Book he wrote : it reads as if he spoke himself : He cannot preach in bonds , so ,\u2014 take it down from shelf When you want counsel ,\u2014 think you hear his very voice ! \u201d \u201c \u2018 Wicked dear Husband , first despair and then rejoice ! Dear wicked Husband , waste no tick of moment more , Be saved like me , bald trunk ! There 's greenness yet at core , Sap under slough ! Read , read ! \u2019 \u201c Let me take breath , my lords ! I 'd like to know , are these \u2014 hers , mine , or Bunyan 's words ? I 'm \u2018 wildered \u2014 scarce with drink ,\u2014 nowise with drink alone ! You 'll say , with heat : but heat 's no stuff to split a stone Like this black boulder \u2014 this flint heart of mine : the Book \u2014 That dealt the crashing blow ! Sirs , here 's the fist that shook His beard till Wrestler Jem howled like a just-lugged bear ! You had brained me with a feather : at once I grew aware Christmas was meant for me . A burden at your back , Good Master Christmas ? Nay ,\u2014 yours was that Joseph 's sack , \u2014 Or whose it was ,\u2014 which held the cup ,\u2014 compared with mine ! Robbery loads my loins , perjury cracks my chine , Adultery ... nay , Tab , you pitched me as I flung ! One word , I 'll up with fist .... No , sweet spouse , hold your tongue ! \u201c I 'm hasting to the end . The Book , sirs \u2014 take and read ! You have my history in a nutshell ,\u2014 ay , indeed ! It must off , my burden ! See ,\u2014 slack straps and into pit , Roll , reach , the bottom , rest , rot there \u2014 a plague on it ! For a mountain 's sure to fall and bury Bedford Town , \u2018 Destruction \u2019 \u2014 that 's the name , and fire shall burn it down ! O \u2018 scape the wrath in time ! Time 's now , if not too late . How can I pilgrimage up to the wicket-gate ? Next comes Despond the slough : not that I fear to pull Through mud , and dry my clothes at brave House Beautiful \u2014 But it 's late in the day , I reckon : had I left years ago Town , wife , and children dear .... Well , Christmas did , you know !\u2014 Soon I had met in the valley and tried my cudgel 's strength On the enemy horned and winged , a-straddle across its length ! Have at his horns , thwick \u2014 thwack : they snap , see ! Hoof and hoof \u2014 Bang , break the fetlock-bones ! For love 's sake , keep aloof Angels ! I 'm man and match ,\u2014 this cudgel for my flail ,\u2014 To thresh him , hoofs and horns , bat 's wing and serpent 's tail ! A chance gone by ! But then , what else does Hopeful ding Into the deafest ear except \u2014 hope , hope 's the thing ? Too late i \u2019 the day for me to thrid the windings : but There 's still a way to win the race by death 's short cut ! Did Master Faithful need climb the Delightful Mounts ? No , straight to Vanity Fair ,\u2014 a fair , by all accounts , Such as is held outside ,\u2014 lords , ladies , grand and gay ,\u2014 Says he in the face of them , just what you hear me say . And the Judges brought him in guilty , and brought him out To die in the market-place \u2014 St. Peter 's Green 's about The same thing : there they flogged , flayed , buffeted , lanced with knives , Pricked him with swords ,\u2014 I 'll swear , he 'd full a cat 's nine lives ,\u2014 So to his end at last came Faithful ,\u2014 ha , ha , he ! Who holds the highest card ? for there stands hid , you see , Behind the rabble-rout , a chariot , pair and all : He 's in , he 's off , he 's up , through clouds , at trumpet-call , Carried the nearest way to Heaven-gate ! Odds my life \u2014 Has nobody a sword to spare ? not even a knife ? Then hang me , draw and quarter ! Tab \u2014 do the same by her ! O Master Worldly-Wiseman ... that 's Master Interpreter , Take the will , not the deed ! Our gibbet 's handy close : Forestall Last Judgment-Day ! Be kindly , not morose ! There wants no earthly judge-and-jurying : here we stand \u2014 Sentence our guilty selves : so , hang us out of hand ! Make haste for pity 's sake ! A single moment 's loss Means \u2014 Satan 's lord once more : his whisper shoots across All singing in my heart , all praying in my brain , \u2018 It comes of heat and beer ! \u2019 \u2014 hark how he guffaws plain ! \u2018 To-morrow you 'll wake bright , and , in a safe skin , hug Your sound selves , Tab and you , over a foaming jug ! You 've had such qualms before , time out of mind ! \u2019 He 's right ! Did not we kick and cuff and curse away , that night , When home we blindly reeled , and left poor humpback Joe I \u2019 the lurch to pay for what ... somebody did , you know ! Both of us maundered then \u2018 Lame humpback ,\u2014 never more Will he come limping , drain his tankard at our door ! He 'll swing , while \u2014 somebody .... \u2019 Says Tab , \u2018 No , for I 'll peach ! \u2019 \u2018 I 'm for you , Tab , \u2019 cries I , \u2018 there 's rope enough for each ! \u2019 So blubbered we , and bussed , and went to bed upon The grace of Tab 's good thought : by morning , all was gone ! We laughed \u2014 \u2018 What 's life to him , a cripple of no account ? \u2019 Oh , waves increase around \u2014 I feel them mount and mount ! Hang us ! To-morrow brings Tom Bearward with his bears : One new black-muzzled brute beats Sackerson , he swears :And , baiting o'er , the Brawl They lead on Turner 's Patch ,\u2014 lads , lasses , up tails all ,\u2014 I 'm i \u2019 the thick o \u2019 the throng ! That means the Iron Cage , \u2014 Means the Lost Man inside ! Where 's hope for such as wage War against light ? Light 's left , light 's here , I hold light still , So does Tab \u2014 make but haste to hang us both ! You will ? \u201d I promise , when he stopped you might have heard a mouse Squeak , such a death-like hush sealed up the old Mote House . But when the mass of man sank meek upon his knees , While Tab , alongside , wheezed a hoarse \u201c Do hang us , please ! \u201d Why , then the waters rose , no eye but ran with tears , Hearts heaved , heads thumped , until , paying all past arrears Of pity and sorrow , at last a regular scream outbroke Of triumph , joy and praise . My Lord Chief Justice spoke , First mopping brow and cheek , where still , for one that budged , Another bead broke fresh : \u201c What Judge , that ever judged Since first the world began , judged such a case as this ? Why , Master Bratts , long since , folk smelt you out , I wis ! I had my doubts , i \u2019 faith , each time you played the fox Convicting geese of crime in yonder witness-box \u2014 Yea , much did I misdoubt , the thief that stole her eggs Was hardly goosey 's self at Reynard 's game , i \u2019 feggs ! Yet thus much was to praise \u2014 you spoke to point , direct \u2014 Swore you heard , saw the theft : no jury could suspect \u2014 Dared to suspect ,\u2014 I 'll say ,\u2014 a spot in white so clear : Goosey was throttled , true : but thereof godly fear Came of example set , much as our laws intend ; And , though a fox confessed , you proved the Judge 's friend . What if I had my doubts ? Suppose I gave them breath , Brought you to bar : what work to do , ere \u2018 Guilty , Death , \u2019 \u2014 Had paid our pains ! What heaps of witnesses to drag From holes and corners , paid from out the County 's bag ! Trial three dog-days long ! Amicus Curi\u00e6 \u2014 that 's Your title , no dispute \u2014 truth-telling Master Bratts ! Thank you , too , Mistress Tab ! Why doubt one word you say ? Hanging you both deserve , hanged both shall be this day ! The tinker needs must be a proper man . I 've heard He lies in Jail long since : if Quality 's good word Warrants me letting loose ,\u2014 some householder , I mean \u2014 Freeholder , better still ,\u2014 I do n't say but \u2014 between Now and next Sessions .... Well ! Consider of his case , I promise to , at least : we owe him so much grace . Not that \u2014 no , God forbid !\u2014 I lean to think , as you , The grace that such repent is any jail-bird 's due : I rather see the fruit of twelve years \u2019 pious reign \u2014 Astr\u00e6a Redux , Charles restored his rights again ! \u2014 Of which , another time ! I somehow feel a peace Stealing across the world . May deeds like this increase ! So , Master Sheriff , stay that sentence I pronounced On those two dozen odd : deserving to be trounced Soundly , and yet ... well , well , at all events despatch This pair of \u2014 shall I say , sinner-saints ?\u2014 ere we catch Their jail-distemper too . Stop tears , or I 'll indite All weeping Bedfordshire for turning Bunyanite ! \u201d So , forms were galloped through . If Justice , on the spur , Proved somewhat expeditious , would Quality demur ? And happily hanged were they ,\u2014 why lengthen out my tale ?\u2014 Where Bunyan 's Statue stands facing where stood his Jail . The effect which \u201c Pilgrim 's Progress \u201d had on these two miserable beings , may be taken as typical of the enormous influence wielded by Bunyan in his own time . The most innocent among us had overwhelming qualms in regard to our sins , as children when we listened to our mothers read the book . I remember having confessed some childish peccadillo that was weighing on my small mind as the first result of my thoroughly aroused sense of guilt . In these early years of the Twentieth Century , such a feeling seems almost as far removed as the days of Bunyan . A sense of guilt is not a distinguishing characteristic of the child of the present day , and it may also be doubted whether such reprobates as Ned and his wife would to-day be affected much if at all by the \u201c Pilgrim 's Progress . \u201d There was probably great personal magnetism in Bunyan himself . We are told that after his discharge from prison , his popularity as a preacher widened rapidly . Such vast crowds of people flocked to hear him that his place of worship had to be enlarged . He went frequently to London on week days to deliver addresses in the large chapel in Southwark which was invariably thronged with eager worshipers . Browning 's picture of Bunyan shows the instant effect of his personality upon Tab . \u201c There sat the man , the father . He looked up : what one feels When heart that leapt to mouth drops down again to heels ! He raised his hand .... Hast seen , when drinking out the night , And in the day , earth grow another something quite Under the sun 's first stare ? I stood a very stone . \u201d And again \u201c Then all at once rose he : His brown hair burst a-spread , his eyes were suns to see : Up went his hands . \u201d It is like a clever bit of stage business to make Ned and Tab use the shoe laces to tie up the hands of their victims , and to bring on by this means the meeting between Tab and Bunyan . Of course , the blind daughter 's part is imaginary , but yet it seems to bring very vividly before us this well loved child . Another touch , quite in keeping with the time , is the decision of the Judge that the remarkable change of heart in Ned and Tab was due to the piety of King Charles . Like every one else , however , he was impressed by what he heard of the Tinker , and inclined to see what he could do to give him his freedom . It seems that Bunyan 's life in jail was a good deal lightened by the favor he always inspired . The story goes that from the first he was in favor with the jailor , who nearly lost his place for permitting him on one occasion to go as far as London . After this he was more strictly confined , but at last he was often allowed to visit his family , and remain with them all night . One night , however , when he was allowed this liberty Bunyan felt resistlessly impressed with the propriety of returning to the prison . He arrived after the keeper had shut up for the night , much to the official 's surprise . But his impatience at being untimely disturbed was changed to thankfulness , when a little after a messenger came from a neighboring clerical magistrate to see that the prisoner was safe . \u201c You may go now when you will \u201d said the jailer ; \u201c for you know better than I can tell you when to come in again . \u201dStatue by J. E. Boehm ] Though Bunyan is not primarily the subject of this poem , it is an appreciative tribute to his genius and to his force of character , only to be paralleled by Dowden 's sympathetic critique in his \u201c Puritan and Anglican Studies . \u201d What Browning makes Ned and Tab see through suddenly aroused feeling \u2014 namely that it is no book but \u201c plays , Songs , ballads and the like : here 's no such strawy blaze , But sky wide ope , sun , moon , and seven stars out full-flare , \u201d Dowden puts in the colder language of criticism . \u201c The \u2018 Pilgrim 's Progress \u2019 is a gallery of portraits , admirably discriminated , and as convincing in their self-verification as those of Holbein . His personages live for us as few figures outside the drama of Shakespeare live .... All his powers cooperated harmoniously in creating this book \u2014 his religious ardor , his human tenderness , his sense of beauty , nourished by the Scriptures , his strong common sense , even his gift of humor . Through his deep seriousness play the lighter faculties . The whole man presses into this small volume . \u201d \u201c Halbert and Hob \u201d belongs here merely for its wild North of England setting . We may imagine , if we choose , that this wild father and son dwelt in the beautiful country of Northumberland , in the North of England , but descriptions of the scenery could add nothing to the atmosphere of the poem , for Northumberland is surpassingly lovely . Doubtless , human beings of this type have existed in all parts of the globe . At any rate , these particular human beings were transported by Browning from Aristotle 's \u201c Ethics \u201d to the North of England . The incident is told by Aristotle in illustration of the contention that anger and asperity are more natural than excessive and unnecessary desires . \u201c Thus one who was accused of striking his father said , as an apology for it , that his own father , and even his grandfather , had struck his ; \u2018 and he alsowill strike me , when he becomes a man ; for it runs in our family . \u2019 A certain person , also , being dragged by his son , bid him stop at the door , for he himself had dragged his father as far as that . \u201d The dryness of \u201c Aristotle 's cheeks \u201d is as usual so enlivened by Browning that the fate of Halbert and Hob grows pathetic and comes close to our sympathies . HALBERT AND HOB Here is a thing that happened . Like wild beasts whelped , for den , In a wild part of North England , there lived once two wild men Inhabiting one homestead , neither a hovel nor hut , Time out of mind their birthright : father and son , these \u2014 but \u2014 Such a son , such a father ! Most wildness by degrees Softens away : yet , last of their line , the wildest and worst were these . Criminals , then ? Why , no : they did not murder and rob ; But , give them a word , they returned a blow \u2014 old Halbert as young Hob : Harsh and fierce of word , rough and savage of deed , Hated or feared the more \u2014 who knows ?\u2014 the genuine wild-beast breed . Thus were they found by the few sparse folk of the countryside ; But how fared each with other ? E'en beasts couch , hide by hide , In a growling , grudged agreement : so , father and son aye curled The closelier up in their den because the last of their kind in the world . Still , beast irks beast on occasion . One Christmas night of snow , Came father and son to words \u2014 such words ! more cruel because the blow To crown each word was wanting , while taunt matched gibe , and curse Completed with oath in wager , like pastime in hell ,\u2014 nay , worse : For pastime turned to earnest , as up there sprang at last The son at the throat of the father , seized him and held him fast . \u201c Out of this house you go ! \u201d \u2014\u2014 \u201c This oven where now we bake , too hot to hold us both ! If there 's snow outside , there 's coolness : out with you , bide a spell In the drift and save the sexton the charge of a parish shell ! \u201d Now , the old trunk was tough , was solid as stump of oak Untouched at the core by a thousand years : much less had its seventy broke One whipcord nerve in the muscly mass from neck to shoulder-blade Of the mountainous man , whereon his child 's rash hand like a feather weighed . Nevertheless at once did the mammoth shut his eyes , Drop chin to breast , drop hands to sides , stand stiffened \u2014 arms and thighs All of a piece \u2014 struck mute , much as a sentry stands , Patient to take the enemy 's fire : his captain so commands . Whereat the son 's wrath flew to fury at such sheer scorn Of his puny strength by the giant eld thus acting the babe new-born : And \u201c Neither will this turn serve ! \u201d yelled he . \u201c Out with you ! Trundle , log ! If you cannot tramp and trudge like a man , try all-fours like a dog ! \u201d Still the old man stood mute . So , logwise ,\u2014 down to floor Pulled from his fireside place , dragged on from hearth to door ,\u2014 Was he pushed , a very log , staircase along , until A certain turn in the steps was reached , a yard from the house-door-sill . Then the father opened eyes \u2014 each spark of their rage extinct ,\u2014 Temples , late black , dead-blanched ,\u2014 right-hand with left-hand linked ,\u2014 He faced his son submissive ; when slow the accents came , They were strangely mild though his son 's rash hand on his neck lay all the same . \u201c Hob , on just such a night of a Christmas long ago , For such a cause , with such a gesture , did I drag \u2014 so \u2014 My father down thus far : but , softening here , I heard A voice in my heart , and stopped : you wait for an outer word . \u201c For your own sake , not mine , soften you too ! Untrod Leave this last step we reach , nor brave the finger of God ! I dared not pass its lifting : I did well . I nor blame Nor praise you . I stopped here : and , Hob , do you the same ! \u201d Straightway the son relaxed his hold of the father 's throat . They mounted , side by side , to the room again : no note Took either of each , no sign made each to either : last As first , in absolute silence , their Christmas-night they passed . At dawn , the father sate on , dead , in the self-same place , With an outburst blackening still the old bad fighting-face : But the son crouched all a-tremble like any lamb new-yeaned . When he went to the burial , someone 's staff he borrowed \u2014 tottered and leaned . But his lips were loose , not locked ,\u2014 kept muttering , mumbling . \u201c There ! At his cursing and swearing ! \u201d the youngsters cried : but the elders thought \u201c In prayer . \u201d A boy threw stones : he picked them up and stored them in his vest . So tottered , muttered , mumbled he , till he died , perhaps found rest . \u201c Is there a reason in nature for these hard hearts ? \u201d O Lear , That a reason out of nature must turn them soft , seems clear ! In the \u201c Inn Album , \u201d a degenerate type of Nineteenth-Century Englishman is dissected with the keen knife of a surgeon , which Browning knows so well how to wield . The villain of this poem was a real personage , a Lord de Ros , a friend of the Duke of Wellington . The story belongs to the annals of crime and is necessarily unpleasant , but in order to see how Browning has worked up the episode it is interesting to know the bare facts as Furnivall gives them in \u201c Notes and Queries \u201d March 25 , 1876 . He says \u201c that the gambling lord showed the portrait of the lady he had seduced and abandoned and offered his dupe an introduction to her , as a bribe to induce him to wait for payment of the money he had won ; that the young gambler eagerly accepted the offer ; and that the lady committed suicide on hearing of the bargain between them . \u201d Dr. Furnivall heard the story from some one who well remembered the sensation it had made in London years ago . In his management of the story , Browning has intensified the villainy of the Lord at the same time that he has shown a possible streak of goodness in him . The young man , on the other hand , he has made to be of very good stuff , indeed , notwithstanding his year of tutelage from the older man . He makes one radical change in the story as well as several minor ones . In the poem the younger man had been in love with the girl whom the older man had dishonorably treated , and had never ceased to love her . Of course , the two men do not know this . By the advice of the elder man , the younger one has decided to settle down and marry his cousin , a charming young girl , who is also brought upon the scene . The other girl is represented as having married an old country parson , who sought a wife simply as a helpmeet in his work . By thus complicating the situations , room has been given for subtle psychic development . The action is all concentrated into one morning in the parlor of the old inn , reminding one much of the method of Ibsen in his plays of grouping his action about a final catastrophe . At the inn one is introduced first to the two gamblers in talk , the young man having won his ten thousand pounds from the older man , who had intended to fleece him . The inn album plays an important part in the action , innocent as its first appearance upon the scene seems to be . The description of this and the inn parlor opens the poem . THE INN ALBUM I \u201c That oblong book 's the Album ; hand it here ! Exactly ! page on page of gratitude For breakfast , dinner , supper , and the view ! I praise these poets : they leave margin-space ; Each stanza seems to gather skirts around , And primly , trimly , keep the foot 's confine , Modest and maidlike ; lubber prose o'erhYpppHeNsprawls And straddling stops the path from left to right . Since I want space to do my cipher-work , Which poem spares a corner ? What comes first ? \u2018 Hail , calm acclivity , salubrious spot ! \u2019Or see \u2014 succincter beauty , brief and bold \u2014 \u2018 If a fellow can dine On rumpsteaks and port wine , He needs not despair Of dining well here \u2014 \u2019 \u2018 Here ! \u2019 I myself could find a better rhyme ! That bard 's a Browning ; he neglects the form : But ah , the sense , ye gods , the weighty sense ! Still , I prefer this classic . Ay , throw wide ! I 'll quench the bits of candle yet unburnt . A minute 's fresh air , then to cipher-work ! Three little columns hold the whole account : Ecart\u00e9 , after which Blind Hookey , then Cutting-the-Pack , five hundred pounds the cut . \u2018 Tis easy reckoning : I have lost , I think . \u201d Two personages occupy this room Shabby-genteel , that 's parlor to the inn Perched on a view-commanding eminence ; \u2014 Inn which may be a veritable house Where somebody once lived and pleased good taste Till tourists found his coign of vantage out , And fingered blunt the individual mark And vulgarized things comfortably smooth . On a sprig-pattern-papered wall there brays Complaint to sky Sir Edwin 's dripping stag ; His couchant coast-guard creature corresponds ; They face the Huguenot and Light o \u2019 the World . Grim o'er the mirror on the mantlepiece , Varnished and coffined , Salmo ferox glares \u2014 Possibly at the List of Wines which , framed And glazed , hangs somewhat prominent on peg . So much describes the stuffy little room \u2014 Vulgar flat smooth respectability : Not so the burst of landscape surging in , Sunrise and all , as he who of the pair Is , plain enough , the younger personage Draws sharp the shrieking curtain , sends aloft The sash , spreads wide and fastens back to wall Shutter and shutter , shows you England 's best . He leans into a living glory-bath Of air and light where seems to float and move The wooded watered country , hill and dale And steel-bright thread of stream , a-smoke with mist , A-sparkle with May morning , diamond drift O \u2019 the sun-touched dew . Except the red-roofed patch Of half a dozen dwellings that , crept close For hill-side shelter , make the village-clump This inn is perched above to dominate \u2014 Except such sign of human neighborhood ,There 's nothing to disturb absolute peace , The reign of English nature \u2014 which mean art And civilized existence . Wildness \u2019 self Is just the cultured triumph . Presently Deep solitude , be sure , reveals a Place That knows the right way to defend itself : Silence hems round a burning spot of life . Now , where a Place burns , must a village brood , And where a village broods , an inn should boast \u2014 Close and convenient : here you have them both . This inn , the Something-arms \u2014 the family 's \u2014Is dear to lovers of the picturesque , And epics have been planned here ; but who plan Take holy orders and find work to do . Painters are more productive , stop a week , Declare the prospect quite a Corot ,\u2014 ay , For tender sentiment ,\u2014 themselves incline Rather to handsweep large and liberal ; Then go , but not without success achieved \u2014 Haply some pencil-drawing , oak or beech , Ferns at the base and ivies up the bole , On this a slug , on that a butterfly . Nay , he who hooked the salmo pendent here , Also exhibited , this same May-month , \u2018 Foxgloves : a study \u2019 \u2014 so inspires the scene , The air , which now the younger personage Inflates him with till lungs o'erfraught are fain Sigh forth a satisfaction might bestir Even those tufts of tree-tops to the South I \u2019 the distance where the green dies off to grey , Which , easy of conjecture , front the Place ; He eyes them , elbows wide , each hand to cheek . His fellow , the much older \u2014 either say A youngish-old man or man oldish-young \u2014 Sits at the table : wicks are noisome-deep In wax , to detriment of plated ware ; Above \u2014 piled , strewn \u2014 is store of playing-cards , Counters and all that 's proper for a game . Circumstantial as the description of this parlor and the situation of the inn is , it is impossible to say which out of the many English inns Browning had in mind . Inns date back to the days of the Romans , who had ale-houses along the roads , the most interesting feature of which was the ivy garland or wreath of vine-leaves in honor of Bacchus , wreathed around a hoop at the end of a long pole to point out the way where good drink could be had . A curious survival of this in early English times was the \u201c ale-stake , \u201d a tavern so called because it had a long pole projecting from the house front wreathed like the old Roman poles with furze , a garland of flowers or an ivy wreath . This decoration was called the \u201c bush , \u201d and in time the London taverners so vied with each other in their attempt to attract attention by very long poles and very prominent bushes that in 1375 a law was passed according to which all taverners in the city of London owning ale-stakes projecting or extending over the King 's highway more than seven feet in length , at the utmost , should be fined forty pence , and compelled to remove the sign . Here is the origin , too , of the proverb , \u201c good wine needs no bush . \u201d In the later development of the inn the signs lost their Bacchic character and became most elaborate , often being painted by artists . The poet says this inn was the \u201c Something-arms , \u201d and had perhaps once been a house . Many inns were the \u201c Somethingarms \u201d and certainly many inns had been houses . One such is the Pounds Bridge Inn on a secluded road between Speldhurst and Penshurst in Kent . It was built by the rector of Penshurst , William Darkenoll , who lived in it only three years , when it became an inn . The inn of the poem might have been a combination in Browning 's memory of this and the \u201c White Horse \u201d at Woolstone , which is described as a queerly pretty little inn with a front distantly resembling a Chippendale bureau-bookcase . \u201c It is tucked away under the mighty sides of White Horse Hill , Berkshire , and additionally overhung with trees and encircled with shrubberies and under-woods , and is finally situated on a narrow road that presently leads , as it would seem , to the end of the known world . \u201d So writes the enthusiastic lover of inns , Charles Harper . Or , perhaps , since there is a river to be seen from the inn of the poem the \u201c Swan \u201d at Sandleford Water , where a foot bridge and a water splash on the river Enborne mark the boundaries of Hampshire and Berkshire . Here \u201c You have the place wholly to yourself , or share it only with the squirrels and the birds of the overarching trees . \u201d The illustration given of the Black Bear Inn , Tewksbury , is a quite typical example of inn architecture , and may have helped the picture in Browning 's mind , though its situation is not so rural as that described in the poem . Inns have , from time immemorial , been the scenes of romances and tragedies and crimes . There have been inns like the \u201c Castle \u201d where the \u201c quality \u201d loved to congregate . The \u201c inn album \u201d of this establishment had inscribed in it almost every eighteenth-century name of any distinction . There have been inns which were noted as the resort of the wits of the day . Ben Jonson loved to take \u201c mine ease in mine inn , \u201d and Dr. Johnson declared that a seat in a tavern chair was the height of human felicity . \u201c He was thinking , \u201d as it has been pertinently put , \u201c not only of a comfortable sanded parlor , a roaring fire , and plenty of good cheer and good company , but also of the circle of humbly appreciative auditors who gathered round an accepted wit , hung upon his words , offered themselves as butts for his ironic or satiric humor , and \u2014 stood treat . \u201d Or there was the inn of sinister aspect where highwaymen might congregate , or inns with hosts who let their guests down through trap-doors in the middle of the night to rob and murder them \u2014 or is this only a vague remembrance of a fanciful inn of Dickens ? Then there was the pilgrim 's inn in the days when Chaucerian folks loved to go on pilgrimages , and in the last century the cyclists inn , and to-day the inn of the automobilist . The particular inn in the poem belongs to the class , rural inn , and in spite of its pictures by noted masters was \u201c stuffy \u201d as to the atmosphere .The \u201c inn album \u201d or visitors \u2019 book is a feature of inns . In this country we simply sign our names in the visitors \u2019 book , but the \u201c album \u201d feature of the visitors \u2019 book of an English inn is its glory and too often its shame , for as Mr. Harper says , \u201c Bathos , ineptitude , and lines that refuse to scan are the stigmata of visitors \u2019 book verse . There is no worse poetry on earth than that which lurks between those covers , or in the pages of young ladies \u2019 albums . \u201d He declares that \u201c The interesting pages of visitors \u2019 books are generally those that are not there , as an Irishman might say ; for the world is populated very densely with those appreciative people who , whether from a love of literature , or with an instinct for collecting autographs that may have a realizable value , remove the signatures of distinguished men , and with them anything original they may have written . \u201d Browning pokes fun at the poetry of his inn album , but at the same time uses it as an important part of the machinery in the action . His English \u201c Iago \u201d writes in it the final damnation of his own character \u2014 the threat by means of which he hopes to ruin his victims , but which , instead , causes the lady to take poison and the young man to murder \u201c Iago . \u201d The presence of the two men at this particular inn is explained in the following bit of conversation between them . \u201c You wrong your poor disciple . Oh , no airs ! Because you happen to be twice my age And twenty times my master , must perforce No blink of daylight struggle through the web There 's no unwinding ? You entoil my legs , And welcome , for I like it : blind me ,\u2014 no ! A very pretty piece of shuttle-work Was that \u2014 your mere chance question at the club \u2014 \u2018 Do you go anywhere this Whitsuntide ? I 'm off for Paris , there 's the Opera \u2014 there 's The Salon , there 's a china-sale ,\u2014 beside Chantilly ; and , for good companionship , There 's Such-and-such and So-and-so . Suppose We start together ? \u2019 \u2018 No such holiday ! \u2019 I told you : \u2018 Paris and the rest be hanged ! Why plague me who am pledged to home-delights ? I 'm the engaged now ; through whose fault but yours ? On duty . As you well know . Do n't I drowse The week away down with the Aunt and Niece ? No help : it 's leisure , loneliness and love . Wish I could take you ; but fame travels fast ,\u2014 A man of much newspaper-paragraph , You scare domestic circles ; and beside Would not you like your lot , that second taste Of nature and approval of the grounds ! You might walk early or lie late , so shirk Week-day devotions : but stay Sunday o'er , And morning church is obligatory : No mundane garb permissible , or dread The butler 's privileged monition ! No ! Pack off to Paris , nor wipe tear away ! \u2019 Whereon how artlessly the happy flash Followed , by inspiration ! \u2018 Tell you what \u2014 Let 's turn their flank , try things on t'other side ! Inns for my money ! Liberty 's the life ! We 'll lie in hiding : there 's the crow-nest nook , The tourist 's joy , the Inn they rave about , Inn that 's out \u2014 out of sight and out of mind And out of mischief to all four of us \u2014 Aunt and niece , you and me . At night arrive ; At morn , find time for just a Pisgah-view Of my friend 's Land of Promise ; then depart . And while I 'm whizzing onward by first train , Bound for our own placeyourself \u2014 Why , you have stepped thence , start from platform , gay Despite the sleepless journey ,\u2014 love lends wings ,\u2014 Hug aunt and niece who , none the wiser , wait The faithful advent ! Eh ? \u2019 \u2018 With all my heart , \u2019 Said I to you ; said I to mine own self : \u2018 Does he believe I fail to comprehend He wants just one more final friendly snack At friend 's exchequer ere friend runs to earth , Marries , renounces yielding friends such sport ? \u2019 And did I spoil sport , pull face grim ,\u2014 nay , grave ? Your pupil does you better credit ! No ! I parleyed with my pass-book ,\u2014 rubbed my pair At the big balance in my banker 's hands ,\u2014 Folded a cheque cigar-case-shape ,\u2014 just wants Filling and signing ,\u2014 and took train , resolved To execute myself with decency And let you win \u2014 if not Ten thousand quite , Something by way of wind-up-farewell burst Of firework-nosegay ! Where 's your fortune fled ? Or is not fortune constant after all ? You lose ten thousand pounds : had I lost half Or half that , I should bite my lips , I think . You man of marble ! Strut and stretch my best On tiptoe , I shall never reach your height . How does the loss feel ! Just one lesson more ! \u201d The more refined man smiles a frown away . On the way to the station where the older man is to take the train they have another talk , in which each tells the other of his experience , but they do not find out yet that they have both loved the same woman . \u201c Stop , my boy ! Do n't think I 'm stingy of experience ! Life \u2014 It 's like this wood we leave . Should you and I Go wandering about there , though the gaps We went in and came out by were opposed As the two poles , still , somehow , all the same , By nightfall we should probably have chanced On much the same main points of interest \u2014 Both of us measured girth of mossy trunk , Stript ivy from its strangled prey , clapped hands At squirrel , sent a fir-cone after crow , And so forth ,\u2014 never mind what time betwixt . So in our lives ; allow I entered mine Another way than you : \u2018 t is possible I ended just by knocking head against That plaguy low-hung branch yourself began By getting bump from ; as at last you too May stumble o'er that stump which first of all Bade me walk circumspectly . Head and feet Are vulnerable both , and I , foot-sure , Forgot that ducking down saves brow from bruise . I , early old , played young man four years since And failed confoundedly : so , hate alike Failure and who caused failure ,\u2014 curse her cant ! \u201d \u201c Oh , I see ! You , though somewhat past the prime , Were taken with a rosebud beauty ! Ah \u2014 But how should chits distinguish ? She admired Your marvel of a mind , I 'll undertake ! But as to body ... nay , I mean ... that is , When years have told on face and figure .... \u201d \u201c Thanks , Mister Sufficiently-Instructed ! Such No doubt was bound to be the consequence To suit your self-complacency : she liked My head enough , but loved some heart beneath Some head with plenty of brown hair a-top After my young friend 's fashion ! What becomes Of that fine speech you made a minute since About the man of middle age you found A formidable peer at twenty-one ? So much for your mock-modesty ! and yet I back your first against this second sprout Of observation , insight , what you please . My middle age , Sir , had too much success ! It 's odd : my case occurred four years ago \u2014 I finished just while you commenced that turn I \u2019 the wood of life that takes us to the wealth Of honeysuckle , heaped for who can reach . Now , I do n't boast : it 's bad style , and beside , The feat proves easier than it looks : I plucked Full many a flower unnamed in that bouquetGood nature sticks into my button-hole . Therefore it was with nose in want of snuff Rather than Ess or Psidium , that I chanced On what \u2014 so far from \u2018 rosebud beauty \u2019 .... Well \u2014 She 's dead : at least you never heard her name ; She was no courtly creature , had nor birth Nor breeding \u2014 mere fine-lady-breeding ; but Oh , such a wonder of a woman ! Grand As a Greek statue ! Stick fine clothes on that , Style that a Duchess or a Queen ,\u2014 you know , Artists would make an outcry : all the more , That she had just a statue 's sleepy grace Which broods o'er its own beauty . Nay , her faultwas just perfection : for suppose Only the little flaw , and I had peeped Inside it , learned what soul inside was like . At Rome some tourist raised the grit beneath A Venus \u2019 forehead with his whittling-knife \u2014 I wish ,\u2014 now ,\u2014 I had played that brute , brought blood To surface from the depths I fancied chalk ! As it was , her mere face surprised so much That I stopped short there , struck on heap , as stares The cockney stranger at a certain bust With drooped eyes ,\u2014 she 's the thing I have in mind ,\u2014 Down at my Brother 's . All sufficient prize \u2014 Such outside ! Now ,\u2014 confound me for a prig !\u2014 Who cares ? I 'll make a clean breast once for all ! Beside , you 've heard the gossip . My life long I 've been a woman-liker ,\u2014 liking means Loving and so on . There 's a lengthy list By this time I shall have to answer for \u2014 So say the good folk : and they do n't guess half \u2014 For the worst is , let once collecting-itch Possess you , and , with perspicacity , Keeps growing such a greediness that theft Follows at no long distance ,\u2014 there 's the fact ! I knew that on my Leporello-list Might figure this , that , and the other name Of feminine desirability , But if I happened to desire inscribe , Along with these , the only Beautiful \u2014 Here was the unique specimen to snatch Or now or never . \u2018 Beautiful \u2019 I said \u2014 \u2018 Beautiful \u2019 say in cold blood ,\u2014 boiling then To tune of \u2018 Haste , secure whate'er the cost This rarity , die in the act , be damned , So you complete collection , crown your list ! \u2019 It seemed as though the whole world , once aroused By the first notice of such wonder 's birth , Would break bounds to contest my prize with me The first discoverer , should she but emerge From that safe den of darkness where she dozed Till I stole in , that country-parsonage Where , country-parson 's daughter , motherless , Brotherless , sisterless , for eighteen years She had been vegetating lily-like . Her father was my brother 's tutor , got The living that way : him I chanced to see \u2014 Her I saw \u2014 her the world would grow one eye To see , I felt no sort of doubt at all ! \u2018 Secure her ! \u2019 cried the devil : \u2018 afterward Arrange for the disposal of the prize ! \u2019 The devil 's doing ! yet I seem to think \u2014 Now , when all 's done ,\u2014 think with \u2018 a head reposed \u2019 In French phrase \u2014 hope I think I meant to do All requisite for such a rarity When I should be at leisure , have due time To learn requirement . But in evil day \u2014 Bless me , at week 's end , long as any year , The father must begin \u2018 Young Somebody , Much recommended \u2014 for I break a rule \u2014 Comes here to read , next Long Vacation . \u2019 \u2018 Young ! \u2019 That did it . Had the epithet been \u2018 rich , \u2019 \u2018 Noble , \u2019 \u2018 a genius , \u2019 even \u2018 handsome , \u2019 \u2014 but \u2014 \u2018 Young ! \u2019 \u201d \u201c I say \u2014 just a word ! I want to know \u2014 You are not married ? \u201d \u201c I ? \u201d \u201c Nor ever were ? \u201d \u201c Never ! Why ? \u201d \u201c Oh , then \u2014 never mind ! Go on ! I had a reason for the question . \u201d \u201c Come ,\u2014 You could not be the young man ? \u201d \u201c No , indeed ! Certainly \u2014 if you never married her ! \u201d \u201c That I did not : and there 's the curse , you 'll see ! Nay , all of it 's one curse , my life 's mistake Which , nourished with manure that 's warranted To make the plant bear wisdom , blew out full In folly beyond field-flower-foolishness ! The lies I used to tell my womankind , Knowing they disbelieved me all the time Though they required my lies , their decent due , This woman \u2014 not so much believed , I 'll say , As just anticipated from my mouth : Since being true , devoted , constant \u2014 she Found constancy , devotion , truth , the plain And easy commonplace of character . No mock-heroics but seemed natural To her who underneath the face , I knew Was fairness \u2019 self , possessed a heart , I judged Must correspond in folly just as far Beyond the common ,\u2014 and a mind to match ,\u2014 Not made to puzzle conjurers like me Who , therein , proved the fool who fronts you , Sir , And begs leave to cut short the ugly rest ! \u2018 Trust me ! \u2019 I said : she trusted . \u2018 Marry me ! \u2019 Or rather , \u2018 We are married : when , the rite ? \u2019 That brought on the collector 's next-day qualm At counting acquisition 's cost . There lay My marvel , there my purse more light by much Because of its late lie-expenditure : Ill-judged such moment to make fresh demand \u2014 To cage as well as catch my rarity ! So , I began explaining . At first word Outbroke the horror . \u2018 Then , my truths were lies ! \u2019 I tell you , such an outbreak , such new strange All-unsuspected revelation \u2014 soul As supernaturally grand as face Was fair beyond example \u2014 that at once Either I lost \u2014 or , if it please you , found My senses ,\u2014 stammered somehow \u2014 \u2018 Jest ! and now , Earnest ! Forget all else but \u2014 heart has loved , Does love , shall love you ever ! take the hand ! \u2019 Not she ! no marriage for superb disdain , Contempt incarnate ! \u201d \u201c Yes , it 's different ,\u2014 It 's only like in being four years since . I see now ! \u201d \u201c Well , what did disdain do next , Think you ? \u201d \u201c That 's past me : did not marry you !\u2014 That 's the main thing I care for , I suppose . Turned nun , or what ? \u201d \u201c Why , married in a month Some parson , some smug crop-haired smooth-chinned sort Of curate-creature , I suspect ,\u2014 dived down , Down , deeper still , and came up somewhere else \u2014 I do n't know where \u2014 I 've not tried much to know ,\u2014 In short , she 's happy : what the clodpoles call \u2018 Countrified \u2019 with a vengeance ! leads the life Respectable and all that drives you mad : Still \u2014 where , I do n't know , and that 's best for both . \u201d \u201c Well , that she did not like you , I conceive . But why should you hate her , I want to know ? \u201d \u201c My good young friend ,\u2014 because or her or else Malicious Providence I have to hate . For , what I tell you proved the turning-point Of my whole life and fortune toward success Or failure . If I drown , I lay the fault Much on myself who caught at reed not rope , But more on reed which , with a packthread 's pith , Had buoyed me till the minute 's cramp could thaw And I strike out afresh and so be saved . It 's easy saying \u2014 I had sunk before , Disqualified myself by idle days And busy nights , long since , from holding hard On cable , even , had fate cast me such ! You boys do n't know how many times men fail Perforce o \u2019 the little to succeed i \u2019 the large , Husband their strength , let slip the petty prey , Collect the whole power for the final pounce . My fault was the mistaking man 's main prize For intermediate boy 's diversion ; clap Of boyish hands here frightened game away Which , once gone , goes forever . Oh , at first I took the anger easily , nor much Minded the anguish \u2014 having learned that storms Subside , and teapot-tempests are akin . Time would arrange things , mend whate'er might be Somewhat amiss ; precipitation , eh ? Reason and rhyme prompt \u2014 reparation ! Tiffs End properly in marriage and a dance ! I said \u2018 We 'll marry , make the past a blank \u2019 \u2014 And never was such damnable mistake ! That interview , that laying bare my soul , As it was first , so was it last chance \u2014 one And only . Did I write ? Back letter came Unopened as it went . Inexorable She fled , I do n't know where , consoled herself With the smug curate-creature : chop and change ! Sure am I , when she told her shaveling all His Magdalen 's adventure , tears were shed , Forgiveness evangelically shown , \u2018 Loose hair and lifted eye , \u2019 \u2014 as some one says . And now , he 's worshipped for his pains , the sneak ! \u201d \u201c Well , but your turning-point of life ,\u2014 what 's here To hinder you contesting Finsbury With Orton , next election ? I do n't see .... \u201d \u201c Not you ! But I see . Slowly , surely , creeps Day by day o'er me the conviction \u2014 here Was life 's prize grasped at , gained , and then let go ! \u2014 That with her \u2014 may be , for her \u2014 I had felt Ice in me melt , grow steam , drive to effect Any or all the fancies sluggish here I \u2019 the head that needs the hand she would not take And I shall never lift now . Lo , your wood \u2014 Its turnings which I likened life to ! Well ,\u2014 There she stands , ending every avenue , Her visionary presence on each goal I might have gained had we kept side by side ! Still string nerve and strike foot ? Her frown forbids : The steam congeals once more : I 'm old again ! Therefore I hate myself \u2014 but how much worse Do not I hate who would not understand , Let me repair things \u2014 no , but sent a-slide My folly falteringly , stumblingly Down , down and deeper down until I drop Upon \u2014 the need of your ten thousand pounds And consequently loss of mine ! I lose Character , cash , nay , common-sense itself Recounting such a lengthy cock-and-bull Adventure \u2014 lose my temper in the act .... \u201d \u201c And lose beside ,\u2014 if I may supplement The list of losses ,\u2014 train and ten-o'clock ! Hark , pant and puff , there travels the swart sign ! So much the better ! You 're my captive now ! I 'm glad you trust a fellow : friends grow thick This way \u2014 that 's twice said ; we were thickish , though , Even last night , and , ere night comes again , I prophesy good luck to both of us ! For see now !\u2014 back to \u2018 balmy eminence \u2019 Or \u2018 calm acclivity , \u2019 or what 's the word ! Bestow you there an hour , concoct at ease A sonnet for the Album , while I put Bold face on , best foot forward , make for house , March in to aunt and niece , and tell the truth \u2014Oh , the niece Is rationality itself ! The aunt \u2014 If she 's amenable to reason too \u2014 Why , you stooped short to pay her due respect , And let the Duke waitIf she grows gracious , I return for you ; If thunder 's in the air , why \u2014 bear your doom , Dine on rump-steaks and port , and shake the dust Of aunty from your shoes as off you go By evening-train , nor give the thing a thought How you shall pay me \u2014 that 's as sure as fate , Old fellow ! Off with you , face left about ! Yonder 's the path I have to pad . You see , I 'm in good spirits , God knows why ! Perhaps Because the woman did not marry you \u2014 Who look so hard at me ,\u2014 and have the right , One must be fair and own . \u201d The two stand still Under an oak . \u201c Look here ! \u201d resumes the youth . \u201c I never quite knew how I came to like You \u2014 so much \u2014 whom I ought not court at all ; Nor how you had a leaning just to me Who am assuredly not worth your pains . For there must needs be plenty such as you Somewhere about ,\u2014 although I can n't say where ,\u2014 Able and willing to teach all you know ; While \u2014 how can you have missed a score like me With money and no wit , precisely each A pupil for your purpose , were it \u2014 ease Fool 's poke of tutor 's honorarium-fee ? And yet , howe'er it came about , I felt At once my master : you as prompt descried Your man , I warrant , so was bargain struck . Now , these same lines of liking , loving , run Sometimes so close together they converge \u2014 Life 's great adventures \u2014 you know what I mean \u2014 In people . Do you know , as you advanced , It got to be uncommonly like fact We two had fallen in with \u2014 liked and loved Just the same woman in our different ways ? I began life \u2014 poor groundling as I prove \u2014 Winged and ambitious to fly high : why not ? There 's something in \u2018 Don Quixote \u2019 to the point , My shrewd old father used to quote and praise \u2014 \u2018 Am I born man ? \u2019 asks Sancho : \u2018 being man , By possibility I may be Pope ! \u2019 So , Pope I meant to make myself , by step And step , whereof the first should be to find A perfect woman ; and I tell you this \u2014 If what I fixed on , in the order due Of undertakings , as next step , had first Of all disposed itself to suit my tread , And I had been , the day I came of age , Returned at head of poll for Westminster \u2014 Nay , and moreover summoned by the Queen At week 's end , when my maiden-speech bore fruit , To form and head a Tory ministry \u2014 It would not have seemed stranger , no , nor been More strange to me , as now I estimate , Than what did happen \u2014 sober truth , no dream . I saw my wonder of a woman ,\u2014 laugh , I 'm past that !\u2014 in Commemoration-week . A plenty have I seen since , fair and foul ,\u2014 With eyes , too , helped by your sagacious wink ; But one to match that marvel \u2014 no least trace , Least touch of kinship and community ! The end was \u2014 I did somehow state the fact , Did , with no matter what imperfect words , One way or other give to understand That woman , soul and body were her slave Would she but take , but try them \u2014 any test Of will , and some poor test of power beside : So did the strings within my brain grow tense And capable of ... hang similitudes ! She answered kindly but beyond appeal . \u2018 No sort of hope for me , who came too late . She was another 's . Love went \u2014 mine to her , Hers just as loyally to some one else . \u2019 Of course ! I might expect it ! Nature 's law \u2014 Given the peerless woman , certainly Somewhere shall be the peerless man to match ! I acquiesced at once , submitted me In something of a stupor , went my way . I fancy there had been some talk before Of somebody \u2014 her father or the like \u2014 To coach me in the holidays ,\u2014 that 's how I came to get the sight and speech of her ,\u2014 But I had sense enough to break off sharp , Save both of us the pain . \u201d \u201c Quite right there ! \u201d \u201c Eh ? Quite wrong , it happens ! Now comes worst of all ! Yes , I did sulk aloof and let alone The lovers \u2014 I disturb the angel-mates ? \u201d \u201c Seraph paired off with cherub ! \u201d \u201c Thank you ! While I never plucked up courage to inquire Who he was , even ,\u2014 certain-sure of this , That nobody I knew of had blue wings And wore a star-crown as he needs must do ,\u2014 Some little lady ,\u2014 plainish , pock-marked girl ,\u2014 Finds out my secret in my woful face , Comes up to me at the Apollo Ball , And pityingly pours her wine and oil This way into the wound : \u2018 Dear f-f-friend , Why waste affection thus on \u2014 must I say , A somewhat worthless object ? Who 's her choice \u2014 Irrevocable as deliberate \u2014 Out of the wide world ? I shall name no names \u2014 But there 's a person in society , Who , blessed with rank and talent , has grown gray In idleness and sin of every sort Except hypocrisy : he 's thrice her age , A by-word for \u201c successes with the sex \u201d As the French say \u2014 and , as we ought to say , Consummately a liar and a rogue , Since \u2014 show me where 's the woman won without The help of this one lie which she believes \u2014 That \u2014 never mind how things have come to pass , And let who loves have loved a thousand times \u2014 All the same he now loves her only , loves Her ever ! if by \u201c won \u201d you just mean \u201c sold , \u201d That 's quite another compact . Well , this scamp , Continuing descent from bad to worse , Must leave his fine and fashionable preyand apply His arts to this poor country ignorance Who sees forthwith in the first rag of man Her model hero ! Why continue waste On such a woman treasures of a heart Would yet find solace ,\u2014 yes , my f-f-friend \u2014 In some congenial \u2014 fiddle-diddle-dee ? \u2019 \u201d \u201c Pray , is the pleasant gentleman described Exact the portrait which my \u2018 f-f-friends \u2019 Recognize as so like ? \u2018 T is evident You half surmised the sweet original Could be no other than myself , just now ! Your stop and start were flattering ! \u201d \u201c Of course Caricature 's allowed for in a sketch ! The longish nose becomes a foot in length , The swarthy cheek gets copper-colored ,\u2014 still , Prominent beak and dark-hued skin are facts : And \u2018 parson 's daughter \u2019 \u2014 \u2018 young man coachable \u2019 \u2014 \u2018 Elderly party \u2019 \u2014 \u2018 four years since \u2019 \u2014 were facts To fasten on , a moment ! Marriage , though \u2014 That made the difference , I hope . \u201d \u201c All right ! I never married ; wish I had \u2014 and then Unwish it : people kill their wives , sometimes ! I hate my mistress , but I 'm murder-free . In your case , where 's the grievance ? You came last , The earlier bird picked up the worm . Suppose You , in the glory of your twenty-one , Had happened to precede myself ! \u2018 t is odds But this gigantic juvenility , This offering of a big arm 's bony hand \u2014 I 'd rather shake than feel shake me , I know \u2014 Had moved my dainty mistress to admire An altogether new Ideal \u2014 deem Idolatry less due to life 's decline Productive of experience , powers mature By dint of usage , the made man \u2014 no boy That 's all to make ! I was the earlier bird \u2014 And what I found , I let fall : what you missed Who is the fool that blames you for ? \u201d They become so deeply interested in this talk that the train is missed , and , in the meantime , the lady who now lives in the neighborhood as the wife of the hard-working country parson meets the young girl at the inn . They are great friends and have come there , at the girl 's invitation , to talk over her prospective husband . She desires her friend to come to her home and meet her fianc\u00e9 , but the lady , who is in constant fear of meeting \u201c Iago , \u201d never goes anywhere , and proposes a meeting with him at the inn . While she waits , \u201c Iago \u201d comes in upon her . There is a terrible scene of recrimination between these two , the man again daring to prefer his love . The lady scorns him . Horror is added to horror when the young man appears at the door , and recognizes the woman he really loves . His faith in her and his love are shaken for a moment , but return immediately and he stands her true friend and lover . The complete despicableness of \u201c Iago 's \u201d nature finally reveals itself in the lines he writes in the album and gives to the lady to read . The poem is too long to quote in full . The closing scene , however , will give the reader a good idea of the poet 's handling of this nineteenth-century tragedy . The true nobility of soul of the younger man links him with Mertoun among Browning 's heroes and represents the Englishman or the man of any country for that matter at his highest . Whether redemption for the older man would have been possible had the lady believed him in the inn parlor is doubtful . Such natures are like Ibsen 's \u201c Peer Gynt . \u201d They need to be put into a button mould and moulded over again . \u201c Here 's the lady back ! So , Madam , you have conned the Album-page And come to thank its last contributor ? How kind and condescending ! I retire A moment , lest I spoil the interview , And mar my own endeavor to make friends \u2014 You with him , him with you , and both with me ! If I succeed \u2014 permit me to inquire Five minutes hence ! Friends bid good-by , you know . \u201d And out he goes . VII She , face , form , bearing , one Superb composure \u2014 \u201c He has told you all ? Yes , he has told you all , your silence says \u2014 What gives him , as he thinks the mastery Over my body and my soul !\u2014 has told That instance , even , of their servitude He now exacts of me ? A silent blush ! That 's well , though better would white ignorance Beseem your brow , undesecrate before \u2014 Ay , when I left you ! I too learn at last \u2014 Hideously learned as I seemed so late \u2014 What sin may swell to . Yes ,\u2014 I needed learn That , when my prophet 's rod became the snake I fled from , it would , one day , swallow up \u2014 Incorporate whatever serpentine Falsehood and treason and unmanliness Beslime earth 's pavement : such the power of Hell , And so beginning , ends no otherwise The Adversary ! I was ignorant , Blameworthy \u2014 if you will ; but blame I take Nowise upon me as I ask myself \u2014 You \u2014 how can you , whose soul I seemed to read The limpid eyes through , have declined so deep Even with him for consort ? I revolve Much memory , pry into the looks and words Of that day 's walk beneath the College wall , And nowhere can distinguish , in what gleams Only pure marble through my dusky past , A dubious cranny where such poison-seed Might harbor , nourish what should yield to-day This dread ingredient for the cup I drink . Do not I recognize and honor truth In seeming ?\u2014 take your truth and for return , Give you my truth , a no less precious gift ? You loved me : I believed you . I replied \u2014 How could I other ? \u2018 I was not my own , \u2019 \u2014 No longer had the eyes to see , the ears To hear , the mind to judge , since heart and soul Now were another 's . My own right in me , For well or ill , consigned away \u2014 my face Fronted the honest path , deflection whence Had shamed me in the furtive backward look At the late bargain \u2014 fit such chapman 's phrase !\u2014 As though \u2014 less hasty and more provident \u2014 Waiting had brought advantage . Not for me The chapman 's chance ! Yet while thus much was true , I spared you \u2014 as I knew you then \u2014 one more Concluding word which , truth no less , seemed best Buried away forever . Take it now Its power to pain is past ! Four years \u2014 that day \u2014 Those lines that make the College avenue ! I would that \u2014 friend and foe \u2014 by miracle , I had , that moment , seen into the heart Of either , as I now am taught to see ! I do believe I should have straight assumed My proper function , and sustained a soul , Nor aimed at being just sustained myself By some man 's soul \u2014 the weaker woman'shYpppHeNwant ! So had I missed the momentary thrill Of finding me in presence of a god , But gained the god 's own feeling when he gives Such thrill to what turns life from death before . \u2018 Gods many and Lords many , \u2019 says the Book : You would have yielded up your soul to me \u2014 Not to the false god who has burned its clay In his own image . I had shed my love Like Spring dew on the clod all flowery thence , Not sent up a wild vapor to the sun that drinks and then disperses . Both of us Blameworthy ,\u2014 I first meet my punishment \u2014 And not so hard to bear . I breathe again ! Forth from those arms \u2019 enwinding leprosy At last I struggle \u2014 uncontaminate : Why must I leave you pressing to the breast That 's all one plague-spot ? Did you love me once ? Then take love 's last and best return ! I think , Womanliness means only motherhood ; All love begins and ends there ,\u2014 roams enough , But , having run the circle , rests at home . Why is your expiation yet to make ? Pull shame with your own hands from your own head Now ,\u2014 never wait the slow envelopment Submitted to by unelastic age ! One fierce throe frees the sapling : flake on flake Lull till they leave the oak snow-stupefied . Your heart retains its vital warmth \u2014 or why That blushing reassurance ? Blush , young blood ! Break from beneath this icy premature Captivity of wickedness \u2014 I warn Back , in God 's name ! No fresh encroachment here ! This May breaks all to bud \u2014 No Winter now ! Friend , we are both forgiven ! Sin no more ! I am past sin now , so shall you become ! Meanwhile I testify that , lying once , My foe lied ever , most lied last of all . He , waking , whispered to your sense asleep The wicked counsel ,\u2014 and assent might seem ; But , roused , your healthy indignation breaks The idle dream-pact . You would die \u2014 not dare Confirm your dream-resolve ,\u2014 nay , find the word That fits the deed to bear the light of day ! Say I have justly judged you ! then farewell To blushing \u2014 nay , it ends in smiles , not tears ! Why tears now ? I have justly judged , thank God ! \u201d He does blush boy-like , but the man speaks out , \u2014 Makes the due effort to surmount himself . \u201c I do n't know what he wrote \u2014 how should I ? Nor How he could read my purpose which , it seems , He chose to somehow write \u2014 mistakenly Or else for mischief 's sake . I scarce believe My purpose put before you fair and plain Would need annoy so much ; but there 's my luck \u2014 From first to last I blunder . Still , one more Turn at the target , try to speak my thought ! Since he could guess my purpose , wo n't you read Right what he set down wrong ? He said \u2014 let 's think ! Ay , so !\u2014 he did begin by telling heaps Of tales about you . Now , you see \u2014 suppose Any one told me \u2014 my own mother died Before I knew her \u2014 told me \u2014 to his cost !\u2014 Such tales about my own dead mother : why , You would not wonder surely if I knew , By nothing but my own heart 's help , he lied , Would you ? No reason 's wanted in the case . So with you ! In they burnt on me , his tales , Much as when madhouse-inmates crowd around , Make captive any visitor and scream All sorts of stories of their keeper \u2014 he 's Both dwarf and giant , vulture , wolf , dog , cat , Serpent and scorpion , yet man all the same ; Sane people soon see through the gibberish ! I just made out , you somehow lived somewhere A life of shame \u2014 I can n't distinguish more \u2014 Married or single \u2014 how , do n't matter much : Shame which himself had caused \u2014 that point was clear , That fact confessed \u2014 that thing to hold and keep . Oh , and he added some absurdity \u2014 That you were here to make me \u2014 ha , ha , ha !\u2014 Still love you , still of mind to die for you , Ha , ha \u2014 as if that needed mighty pains ! Now , foolish as ... but never mind myself \u2014 What I am , what I am not , in the eye Of the world , is what I never cared for much . Fool then or no fool , not one single word In the whole string of lies did I believe , But this \u2014 this only \u2014 if I choke , who cares ?\u2014 I believe somehow in your purity Perfect as ever ! Else what use is God ? He is God , and work miracles He can ! Then , what shall I do ? Quite as clear , my course ! They 've got a thing they call their Labyrinth I \u2019 the garden yonder : and my cousin played A pretty trick once , led and lost me deep Inside the briery maze of hedge round hedge ; And there might I be staying now , stock-still , But that I laughing bade eyes follow nose And so straight pushed my path through let and stop And soon was out in the open , face all scratched , But well behind my back the prison-bars In sorry plight enough , I promise you ! So here : I won my way to truth through lies \u2014 Said , as I saw light ,\u2014 if her shame be shame I 'll rescue and redeem her ,\u2014 shame 's no shame ? Then , I 'll avenge , protect \u2014 redeem myself The stupidest of sinners ! Here I stand ! Dear ,\u2014 let me once dare call you so ,\u2014 you said Thus ought you to have done , four years ago , Such things and such ! Ay , dear , and what ought I ? You were revealed to me : where 's gratitude , Where 's memory even , where the gain of you Discernible in my low after-life Of fancied consolation ? why , no horse Once fed on corn , will , missing corn , go munch Mere thistles like a donkey ! I missed you , And in your place found \u2014 him , made him my love , Ay , did I ,\u2014 by this token , that he taught So much beast-nature that I meant ... God knows Whether I bow me to the dust enough !... To marry \u2014 yes , my cousin here ! I hope That was a master-stroke ! Take heart of hers , And give her hand of mine with no more heart Than now you see upon this brow I strike ! What atom of a heart do I retain Not all yours ? Dear , you know it ! Easily May she accord me pardon when I place My brow beneath her foot , if foot so deign , Since uttermost indignity is spared \u2014 Mere marriage and no love ! And all this time Not one word to the purpose ! Are you free ? Only wait ! only let me serve \u2014 deserve Where you appoint and how you see the good ! I have the will \u2014 perhaps the power \u2014 at least Means that have power against the world . For time \u2014 Take my whole life for your experiment ! If you are bound \u2014 in marriage , say \u2014 why , still , Still , sure , there 's something for a friend to do , Outside ? A mere well-wisher , understand ! I 'll sit , my life long , at your gate , you know , Swing it wide open to let you and him Pass freely ,\u2014 and you need not look , much less Fling me a \u2018 Thank you \u2014 are you there , old friend ? \u2019 Do n't say that even : I should drop like shot ! So I feel now at least : some day , who knows ? After no end of weeks and months and years You might smile \u2018 I believe you did your best ! \u2019 And that shall make my heart leap \u2014 leap such leap As lands the feet in Heaven to wait you there ! Ah , there 's just one thing more ! How pale you look ! Why ? Are you angry ? If there 's , after all , Worst come to worst \u2014 if still there somehow be The shame \u2014 I said was no shame ,\u2014 none ! I swear !\u2014 In that case , if my hand and what it holds ,\u2014 My name ,\u2014 might be your safeguard now \u2014 at once \u2014 Why , here 's the hand \u2014 you have the heart ! Of course \u2014 No cheat , no binding you , because I 'm bound , To let me off probation by one day , Week , month , year , lifetime ! Prove as you propose ! Here 's the hand with the name to take or leave ! That 's all \u2014 and no great piece of news , I hope ! \u201d \u201c Give me the hand , then ! \u201d she cries hastily . \u201c Quick , now ! I hear his footstep ! \u201d Hand in hand The couple face him as he enters , stops Short , stands surprised a moment , laughs away Surprise , resumes the much-experienced man . \u201c So , you accept him ? \u201d \u201c Till us death do part ! \u201d \u201c No longer ? Come , that 's right and rational ! I fancied there was power in common sense , But did not know it worked thus promptly . Well \u2014 At last each understands the other , then ? Each drops disguise , then ? So , at supper-time These masquerading people doff their gear , Grand Turk his pompous turban , Quakeress Her stiff-starched bib and tucker ,\u2014 make-believe That only bothers when , ball-business done , Nature demands champagne and mayonnaise . Just so has each of us sage three abjured His and her moral pet particular Pretension to superiority , And , cheek by jowl , we henceforth munch and joke ! Go , happy pair , paternally dismissed To live and die together \u2014 for a month , Discretion can award no more ! Depart From whatsoe'er the calm sweet solitude Selected \u2014 Paris not improbably \u2014 At month 's end , when the honeycomb 's left wax , \u2014 You , daughter , with a pocketful of gold Enough to find your village boys and girls In duffel cloaks and hobnailed shoes from May To \u2014 what 's the phrase ?\u2014 Christmas-come-never-mas ! You , son and heir of mine , shall re-appear Ere Spring-time , that 's the ring-time , lose one leaf , And \u2014 not without regretful smack of lip The while you wipe it free of honey-smear \u2014 Marry the cousin , play the magistrate , Stand for the country , prove perfection 's pink \u2014 Master of hounds , gay-coated dine \u2014 nor die Sooner than needs of gout , obesity , And sons at Christ Church ! As for me ,\u2014 ah me , I abdicate \u2014 retire on my success , Four years well occupied in teaching youth \u2014 My son and daughter the exemplary ! Time for me to retire now , having placed Proud on their pedestal the pair : in turn , Let them do homage to their master ! You ,\u2014 Well , your flushed cheek and flashing eye proclaim Sufficiently your gratitude : you paid The honorarium , the ten thousand pounds To purpose , did you not ? I told you so ! And you , but , bless me , why so pale \u2014 so faint At influx of good fortune ? Certainly , No matter how or why or whose the fault , I save your life \u2014 save it , nor less nor more ! You blindly were resolved to welcome death In that black boor-and-bumpkin-haunted hole Of his , the prig with all the preachments ! You Installed as nurse and matron to the crones And wenches , while there lay a world outside Like ParisIn company and guidance of \u2014 first , this , Then \u2014 all in good time \u2014 some new friend as fit \u2014 What if I were to say , some fresh myself , As I once figured ? Each dog has his day , And mine 's at sunset : what should old dog do But eye young litters \u2019 frisky puppyhood ? Oh I shall watch this beauty and this youth Frisk it in brilliance ! But do n't fear ! Discreet , I shall pretend to no more recognize My quondam pupils than the doctor nods When certain old acquaintances may cross His path in Park , or sit down prim beside His plate at dinner-table : tip nor wink Scares patients he has put , for reason good , Under restriction ,\u2014 maybe , talked sometimes Of douche or horsewhip to ,\u2014 for why ? because The gentleman would crazily declare His best friend was \u2014 Iago ! Ay , and worse \u2014 The lady , all at once grown lunatic , In suicidal monomania vowed , To save her soul , she needs must starve herself ! They 're cured now , both , and I tell nobody . Why do n't you speak ? Nay , speechless , each of you Can spare ,\u2014 without unclasping plighted troth ,\u2014 At least one hand to shake ! Left-hands will do \u2014 Yours first , my daughter ! Ah , it guards \u2014 it gripes The precious Album fast \u2014 and prudently ! As well obliterate the record there On page the last : allow me tear the leaf ! Pray , now ! And afterward , to make amends , What if all three of us contribute each A line to that prelusive fragment ,\u2014 help The embarrassed bard who broke out to break down Dumbfoundered at such unforeseen success ? \u2018 Hail , calm acclivity , salubrious spot \u2019 You begin \u2014 place aux dames ! I 'll prompt you then ! \u2018 Here do I take the good the gods allot ! \u2019 Next you , Sir ! What , still sulky ? Sing , O Muse ! \u2018 Here does my lord in full discharge his shot ! \u2019 Now for the crowning flourish ! mine shall be .... \u201d \u201c Nothing to match your first effusion , mar What was , is , shall remain your masterpiece ! Authorship has the alteration-itch ! No , I protest against erasure . Read , My friend ! \u201d\u201c Read and quickly read \u2018 Before us death do part , \u2019 what made you mine And made me yours \u2014 the marriage-license here ! Decide if he is like to mend the same ! \u201d And so the lady , white to ghastliness , Manages somehow to display the page With left-hand only , while the right retains The other hand , the young man 's ,\u2014 dreaming-drunk He , with this drench of stupefying stuff , Eyes wide , mouth open ,\u2014 half the idiot 's stare And half the prophet 's insight ,\u2014 holding tight , All the same , by his one fact in the world \u2014 The lady 's right-hand : he but seems to read \u2014 Does not , for certain ; yet , how understand Unless he reads ? So , understand he does , For certain . Slowly , word by word , she reads Aloud that license \u2014 or that warrant , say . \u201c \u2018 One against two \u2014 and two that urge their odds To uttermost \u2014 I needs must try resource ! Madam , I laid me prostrate , bade you spurn Body and soul : you spurned and safely spurned So you had spared me the superfluous taunt \u201c Prostration means no power to stand erect , Stand , trampling on who trampled \u2014 prostrate now ! \u201d So , with my other fool-foe : I was fain Let the boy touch me with the buttoned foil , And him the infection gains , he too must needs Catch up the butcher 's cleaver . Be it so ! Since play turns earnest , here 's my serious fence . He loves you ; he demands your love : both know What love means in my language . Love him then ! Pursuant to a pact , love pays my debt : Therefore , deliver me from him , thereby Likewise delivering from me yourself ! For , hesitate \u2014 much more , refuse consent \u2014 I tell the whole truth to your husband . Flat Cards lie on table , in our gamester-phrase ! Consent \u2014 you stop my mouth , the only way . \u2019 \u201c I did well , trusting instinct : knew your hand Had never joined with his in fellowship Over this pact of infamy . You known \u2014 As he was known through every nerve of me . Therefore I \u2018 stopped his mouth the only way \u2019 But my way ! none was left for you , my friend \u2014 The loyal \u2014 near , the loved one ! No \u2014 no \u2014 no ! Threaten ? Chastise ? The coward would but quail . Conquer who can , the cunning of the snake ! Stamp out his slimy strength from tail to head , And still you leave vibration of the tongue . His malice had redoubled \u2014 not on me Who , myself , choose my own refining fire \u2014 But on poor unsuspicious innocence ; And ,\u2014 victim ,\u2014 to turn executioner Also \u2014 that feat effected , forky tongue Had done indeed its office ! One snake 's \u2018 mouth \u2019 Thus \u2018 open \u2019 \u2014 how could mortal \u2018 stop it \u2019 ? \u201c So ! \u201d A tiger-flash \u2014 yell , spring , and scream : halloo ! Death 's out and on him , has and holds him \u2014 ugh ! But ne trucidet coram populo Juvenis senem ! Right the Horatian rule ! There , see how soon a quiet comes to pass ! The youth is somehow by the lady 's side . His right-hand grasps her right-hand once again . Both gaze on the dead body . Hers the word . \u201c And that was good but useless . Had I lived The danger was to dread : but , dying now \u2014 Himself would hardly become talkative , Since talk no more means torture . Fools \u2014 what fools These wicked men are ! Had I borne four years , Four years of weeks and months and days and nights , Inured me to the consciousness of life Coiled round by his life , with the tongue to ply ,\u2014 But that I bore about me , for prompt use At urgent need , the thing that \u2018 stops the mouth \u2019 And stays the venom ? Since such need was now Or never ,\u2014 how should use not follow need ? Bear witness for me , I withdraw from life By virtue of the license \u2014 warrant , say , That blackens yet this Album \u2014 white again , Thanks still to my one friend who tears the page ! Now , let me write the line of supplement , As counselled by my foe there : \u2018 each a line ! \u2019 \u201d And she does falteringly write to end . \u201c I die now through the villain who lies dead , Righteously slain . He would have outraged me , So , my defender slew him . God protect The right ! Where wrong lay , I bear witness now . Let man believe me , whose last breath is spent In blessing my defender from my soul ! \u201d And so ends the Inn Album . As she dies , Begins outside a voice that sounds like song , And is indeed half song though meant for speech Muttered in time to motion \u2014 stir of heart That unsubduably must bubble forth To match the fawn-step as it mounts the stair . \u201c All 's ended and all 's over ! Verdict found \u2018 Not guilty \u2019 \u2014 prisoner forthwith set free , Mid cheers the Court pretends to disregard ! Now Portia , now for Daniel , late severe , At last appeased , benignant ! \u2018 This young man \u2014 Hem \u2014 has the young man 's foibles but no fault . He 's virgin soil \u2014 a friend must cultivate . I think no plant called \u201c love \u201d grows wild \u2014 a friend May introduce , and name the bloom , the fruit ! \u2019 Here somebody dares wave a handkerchief \u2014 She 'll want to hide her face with presently ! Good-by then ! \u2018 Cigno fedel , cigno fedel , Addio ! \u2019 Now , was ever such mistake \u2014 Ever such foolish ugly omen ? Pshaw ! Wagner , beside ! \u2018 Amo te solo , te Solo amai ! \u2019 That 's worth fifty such ! But , mum , the grave face at the opened door ! \u201d And so the good gay girl , with eyes and cheeks Diamond and damask ,\u2014 cheeks so white erewhile Because of a vague fancy , idle fear Chased on reflection !\u2014 pausing , taps discreet ; And then , to give herself a countenance , Before she comes upon the pair inside , Loud \u2014 the oft-quoted , long-laughed-over line \u2014 \u201c \u2018 Hail , calm acclivity , salubrious spot ! \u2019 Open the door ! \u201d"], "true_target": [""], "play_index": 257, "act_index": 0}, {"query": ["Come in !

The Countess awaits Talbot ; he comes ; she reviles him in a few lines ; he turns to go ; she declares him a prisoner ; he laughs at her ; and as she stands amazed , calls in his forces brought in secret to the castle . When Talbot invites himself and his men to feast at her expense , the Countess immediately agrees . Reading the scene , one recalls the words of Dumas fils : \u201c Any one can relate a dramatic situation : the art lies in preparing it , getting it accepted , making it plausible , especially in untying the knot . \u201dHere Shakespeare does not untie the knot ; the Countess merely yields . What she feels , what happened thereafter ,\u2014 all these are omitted . It is merely the situation which counts . Before Talbot comes in , the scene could easily be made to reveal much more of the character of the Countess . When he does enter , the play of wits between them , even as it disclosed character , might provide interesting dramatic conflict . Surely the moment when the Countess thinks Talbot trapped and he coolly jeers at her , is worth more development .

Some day , all the mysterious and wonderful . people of the earth will say that .There are several faults in the original dialogue , but perhaps the chief is not regarding the principle that clearness dramatically consists , not merely in stating needed facts , but in so stating them that interest is not allowed to lapse . The original dialogue was scrappy , lacking sequence , not so much of thought as of emotion . If it be said that at such a moment talk is often fitful , it must be remembered that our time-limits forbid giving every word said in such a scene . We must present merely its essentials . Only in that way may a play , a condensed presentation of life , hope to give a total effect for a scene equal to that of the original . The re-ordered dialogue of the right-hand column seeks merely to bring together ideas really closely related , and to move , in a way in keeping with the characters , from lesser to stronger emotion . With the disappearance of the scrappy effect , is not the result clearer ? Even now , the dialogue might well be condensed and made emotionally more significant . If we let the dialogue of a play merely state necessary facts , what is the result ? At the worst , something like the left-hand column .

His armis , ill\u00e2 quoque tutus in Aul\u00e2 .\u2014 JUV . Sat . iv . CLEOMENES . There has been occasion to remark , that Dryden seldom avails himself of national peculiarities , or national costume , in sketching his dramatic personages ; the present tragedy forms , however , a remarkable exception to this general observation . Cleomenes , the last of the Spartans , is designed , not only as a hero , but as a Lacedemonian ; and is a just picture of that extraordinary race of men , whose virtues were comprized in patriotism , and whose whole passions centered in a thirst for military glory . This character Dryden has drawn with admirable spirit and precision . It was indeed peculiarly suited to his genius ; for , although sometimes deficient in the pathos and natural expression of violent passion , by which Otway , and even Southerne , could affect the passions of an audience , he never fails in expressing , in the most noble language , the sentiments of that stoical philosophy , which considers sufferings rather as subjects of moral reflection , than of natural feeling . Yet , lest a character so invulnerable to the shafts of adversity , so much the totus teres atque rotundus of the poet , should fail to interest the audience ,Dryden has softened the character of his Spartan hero by the influence of those chaste and tender domestic affections , which thrive best in bosoms rendered by nature or philosophy inaccessible to selfish feeling . The haughty and unbending spirit , the love of war , and thirst of honour proper to the Lacedemonian , and inculcated by the whole train of his education , complete the character of Cleomenes . The same spirit , which animates the father , is finely represented as descending upon the son . Cleonidas is a model of a Spartan youth ; and every slight expression which he uses , tends to bring out that celebrated character . The idea of this spirited boy seems to be taken from the excellent character of Hengo , in the \u201c Bonduca \u201d of Beaumont and Fletcher ; whom Cleonidas resembles in the manner of his death , and in his previous sufferings by hunger , as well as in his premature courage , and emulation of his father 's military glory .The wife and mother of Cleomenes seem to be sketched after those of Coriolanus : the former exhibiting a mild and gentle disposition ; the latter , the high-souled magnanimity of a Spartan matron . Of the other characters , little need be said . Ptolemy is a silly tyrant , Sosibius a wily minister , and Cleanthes a friend and confident ; such as tyrants , ministers , and confidents in tragedies usually are . Judging from his first appearance , the author seems to have intended Pantheus as a character somewhat in contrast to that of Cleomenes ; but he soon tires of the task of discrimination , and Pantheus sinks into a mere assistant . Cassandra is not sketched with any peculiar care ; her snares are of a nature not very perilous to Spartan virtue , for her manners are too openly licentious . Such , however , as are fond of tracing the ideas of poets to those who have written before them , may consider Cassandra ,\u2014 in her pride , her love , and her alternate schemes for saving and destroying Cleomenes ,\u2014 as furnishing the original hint of the much more highly finished character of Zara in Congreve 's \u201c Mourning Bride . \u201d The conduct of the piece , being calculated to evince the Spartan virtue , patience , and courage , contains a long train of hopes disappointed , seducing temptations resisted , sufferings patiently endured , and finally closed by a voluntary death . There is no particular object to which the attention of the audience is fixed , as that upon which the conclusion of the piece necessarily depends . The liberation of Cleomenes from his Egyptian bondage is doubtless the consummation concerning which the poet meant that we should be anxious ; but this event might be brought about in so many different ways , and , if accomplished , brings Cleomenes so little nearer to the restoration of Spartan liberty , that it is perhaps insufficient to excite that strong , concentrated , and vivid interest , which the plot of a drama ought properly to inspire . The mind is distracted among the various possibilities by which the desired catastrophe might be accomplished ; and feels a consciousness , that even were Cleomenes dismissed with full sails from the port of Alexandria , it would be rather the beginning than the winding up of his history . For these reasons , the plot seems more deficient in interest than might have been expected , from the spirited delineation of the principal character . It appears that Dryden was unable , from illness , to put the finishing strokes to \u201c Cleomenes . \u201d That task he committed to Southerne , now his intimate friend , and who , as may be easily imagined , felt himself much honoured by the task imposed upon him .The half of the fifth act was that upon which Southerne exercised this power of revisal and finishing ; for that it amounted to no more , will , I think , be obvious to any who takes the trouble to compare that act with those which precede it . The rabble-scene , introduced , as the poet himself tells us , to gratify the more barbarous part of his audience , is indeed deplorably bad . The play , when presented to the theatre , met with unexpected opposition from the government , then directed by Queen Mary , in the absence of her husband . This was not very surprising , considering the subject of the play , and Dryden 's well-known principles . The history of an exiled monarch , soliciting , in the court of an ally , aid to relieve his country from a foreign yoke , and to restore him to the throne of his fathers , with the account of a popular insurrection undertaken for the same purposes , were delicate themes during the reign of William III . ; at least , when the pen of Dryden was to be employed in them , whose well-known skill at adapting an ancient story to a modern moral had so often been exercised in the cause of the house of Stuart . Besides , he had already given offence by his prologue to the \u201c Prophetess , \u201d when revived , which contains some familiar metaphorical sneers , as Cibber calls them , at the Irish war , the female regency , and even the Revolution itself . This prologue had been forbidden ; and a similar exertion of authority was deemed fit in the case of \u201c Cleomenes . \u201d Accordingly , before the inoffensive nature of the piece could be explained , the court took alarm at the subject in the abstract , and the performance of the piece was prohibited by the Chamberlain .It appears , the exertions of Lord Rochester , the maternal uncle of Queen Mary , and of his family , had been sufficiently powerful to guarantee the harmless nature of the play , and to procure a recal of the mandate , by which the acting of the piece , and the consequent profits of the author , had been for some time suspended . When the play was performed , our author had the satisfaction to see the first character admirably represented by the well-known Mrs Barry , to whom he has paid , in the preface , the splendid compliment of saying , \u201c that she had gained by her performance a reputation beyond any woman he had ever seen on the theatre . \u201dIf this expression , as Cibber seems to think , be a little over-stretched , it at least serves to prove to us , that the play was well received ; for , otherwise , the intercourse of civility between the author and performers is generally very slender . Cleomenes was acted and published in 1692 .

Stay not till I learn the way , How to lie , and to betray : He that has me first is blest , For I may deceive the rest .

No , no , dey blithe and gay , Shall like massy , missy play . Dance and sing , hey ding , ding , Strike fiddle and beat drum . Chorus . Come then , & c .

If the Prince put thee into my service for any other reason than to set me off , why then I have no judgment . Thou whoreson mandrake , thou art fitter to be worn in my cap than to wait at my heels . I was never mann 'd with an agate till now ; but I will inset you neither in gold nor silver , but in vile apparel , and send you back again to your master , for a jewel \u2014 the juvenal , the Prince your master , whose chin is not yet fledge . I will sooner have a beard grow in the palm of my hand than he shall get one off his cheek ; and yet he will not stick to say his face is a face-royal . God may finish it when he will , \u2018 tis not a hair amiss yet . He may keep it still at a face-royal , for a barber shall never earn sixpence out of it ; and yet he 'll be crowing as if he had writ man ever since his father was a bachelor . He may keep his own grace , but he 's almost out of mine , I can assure him . What said Master Dommelton about the satin for my short cloak and my slops ?", "Let him be damn 'd , like the Glutton ; pray God his tongue be hotter ! A whoreson Achitophel ! A rascal-yea-forsooth knave , to bear a gentleman in hand , and then stand upon security ! The whoreson smooth-pates do now wear nothing but high shoes , and bunches of keys at their girdles ; and if a man is through with them in honest taking-up , then they must stand upon security . I had as lief they would put ratsbane in my mouth as offer to stop it with security . I look 'd \u2018 a should have sent me two and twenty yards of satin , as I am a true knight , and he sends me security .

For though I speak it to you , I think the King is but a man as I am . The violet smells to him as it doth to me ; the element shows to him as it doth to me ; all his senses have but human conditions . His ceremonies laid by , in his nakedness he appears but a man ; and though his affections are higher mounted than ours , yet , when they stoop , they stoop with the like wing . Therefore , when he sees reason of fears as we do , his fears , out of doubt , be of the same relish as ours are ; yet , in reason , no man should possess him with any appearance of fear , lest he , by showing it , should dishearten his army .", "By my troth , I will speak my conscience of the King : I think he would not wish himself anywhere but where he is .", "I dare say you love him not so ill , to wish him here alone , howsoever you speak this to feel other men 's minds . Methinks I could not die anywhere so contented as in the King 's company , his cause being just and his quarrel honourable .", "So , if a son that is by his father sent about merchandise do sinfully miscarry upon the sea , the imputation of his wickedness , by your rule , should be imposed upon his father that sent him ; or if a servant , under his master 's command transporting a sum of money , be assailed by robbers and die in many irreconcil 'd iniquities , you may call the business of the master the author of the servant 's damnation . But this is not so . The King is not bound to answer the particular endings of his soldiers , the father of his son , nor the master of his servant ; for they purpose not their death , when they purpose their services . Besides , there is no king , be his cause never so spotless , if it come to the arbitrement of swords , can try it out with all unspotted soldiers . Some peradventure have on them the guilt of premeditated and contrived murder ; some , of beguiling virgins with the broken seals of perjury ; some , making the wars their bulwark , that have before gored the gentle bosom of Peace with pillage and robbery . Now , if these men have defeated the law and outrun native punishment , though they can outstrip men , they have no wings to fly from God . War is his beadle , war is his vengeance ; so that here men are punish 'd for before-breach of the King 's laws in now the King 's quarrel . Where they feared the death , they have borne life away ; and where they would be safe , they perish . Then if they die unprovided , no more is the King guilty of their damnation than he was before guilty of those impieties for the which they are now visited . Every subject 's duty is the King 's ; but every subject 's soul is his own . Therefore should every soldier in the wars do as every sick man in his bed , wash every mote out of his conscience ; and dying so , death is to him advantage ; or not dying , the time was blessedly lost wherein such preparation was gained ; and in him that escapes , it were not sin to think that , making God so free an offer , He let him outlive that day to see His greatness and to teach others how they should prepare .", "I myself heard the King say he would not be ransom 'd .", "If I live to see it , I will never trust his word after .", "Your reproof is something too round .

How say you , lady ?", "Marry , if you would put me to verses , or to dance for your sake , Kate , why you undid me ; for the one , I have neither words nor measure , and for the other I have no strength in measure , yet a reasonable measure in strength . If I could win a lady at leap-frog , or by vaulting into my saddle with my armour on my back , under the correction of bragging be it spoken , I should quickly leap into a wife . Or if I might buffet for my love , or bound my horse for her favours , I could lay on like a butcher and sit like a jack-an-apes , never off . But , before God , Kate , I cannot look greenly , nor gasp out my eloquence , nor I have no cunning in protestation ; only downright oaths , which I never use till urg 'd , nor never break for urging . If thou canst love a fellow of this temper , Kate , whose face is not worth sunburning , that never looks in his glass for love of anything he sees there , let thine eye be thy cook . I speak to thee plain soldier . If thou canst love me for this , take me ; if not , to say to thee that I shall die , is true ; but for thy love , by the Lord , no ; yet I love thee too . And while thou liv'st , dear Kate , take a fellow of plain and uncoined constancy ; for he perforce must do thee right , because he hath not the gift to woo in other places ; for these fellows of infinite tongue , that can rhyme themselves into ladies \u2019 favours , they do always reason themselves out again . What ! a speaker is but a prater : a rhyme is but a ballad . A good leg will fall ; a straight back will stoop ; a black beard will turn white ; a curl 'd pate will grow bald ; a fair face will wither ; a full eye will wax hollow ; but a good heart , Kate , is the sun and the moon ; or rather the sun and not the moon ; for it shines bright and never changes , but keeps his course truly . If thou would have such a one , take me ; and take me , take a soldier ; take a soldier , take a king . And what say'st thou then to my love ? Speak , my fair , and fairly , I pray thee .", "No ; it is not possible you should love the enemy of France , Kate ; but , in loving me , you should love the friend of France ; for I love France so well that I will not part with a village of it , I will have it all mine ; and , Kate , when France is mine and I am yours , then yours is France and you are mine .", "No , Kate ?

I shall never move thee in French , unless it be to laugh at me .", "No , faith , is't not , Kate ; but thy speaking of my tongue , and I thine , most truly-falsely , must needs be granted to be much at one .

Come , I know thou lovest me ; and at night , when you come into your closet , you 'll question this gentlewoman about me ; and I know , Kate , you will to her dispraise those parts in me that you love with your heart . But , good Kate , mock me mercifully ; the rather , gentle princess , because I love thee cruelly . If ever thou beest mine , Kate , as I have a saving faith within me tells me thou shalt , I get thee with scambling , and thou must therefore needs prove a good soldier-breeder . Shall not thou and I , between Saint Denis and Saint George , compound a boy , half French , half English , that shall go to Constantinople and take the Turk by the beard ? Shall we not ? What say'st thou , my fair flower-de-luce ?", "No ; \u2018 tis hereafter to know , but now to promise . Do but now promise , Kate , you will endeavour for your French part of such a boy ; and for my English moiety , take the word of a king and a bachelor . How answer you , la plus belle Katherine du monde , mon tres cher et divin deesse ?", "Now , fie upon my false French ! By mine honour , in true English , I love thee , Kate ; by which honour I dare not swear thou lovest me ; yet my blood begins to flatter me that thou dost , notwithstanding the poor and untempering effect of my visage . Now , beshrew my father 's ambition ! he was thinking of civil wars when he got me ; therefore was I created with a stubborn outside , with an aspect of iron , that , when I come to woo ladies , I fright them . But , in faith , Kate , the elder I wax , the better I shall appear . My comfort is , that old age , that ill layer up of beauty , can do no more spoil upon my face . Thou hast me , if thou hast me , at the worst ; and thou shalt wear me , if thou wear me , better and better ; and therefore tell me , most fair Katharine , will you have me ? Put off your maiden blushes ; avouch the thoughts of your heart with the looks of an empress ; take me by the hand , and say , Harry of England , I am thine ; which word thou shalt no sooner bless mine ear withal , but I will tell thee aloud , England is thine , Ireland is thine , France is thine , and Henry Plantagenet is thine ; who , though I speak it before his face , if he be not fellow with the best king , thou shalt find the best king of good fellows . Come , your answer in broken music ; for thy voice is music and thy English broken ; therefore , queen of all , Katharine , break thy mind to me in broken English .

FOOTNOTES\u2014 This Playwas performed at the Funeral Games of Lucius \u00c6milius Paulus , who was surnamed Macedonicus , from having gained a victory over Perseus , King of Macedon . He was so poor at the time of his decease , that they were obliged to sell his estate in order to pay his widow her dower . The Q. Fabius Maximus and P. Cornelius Africanus here mentioned were not , as some have thought , the Curale \u00c6diles , but two sons of \u00c6milius Paulus , who had taken the surnames of the families into which they had been adopted . ]\u2014 The \u201c Sarranian \u201d or \u201c Tyrian \u201d pipes , or flutes , are supposed to have been of a quick and mirthful tone ; Madame Dacier has consequently with much justice suggested that the representation being on the occasion of a funeral , the title has not come down to us in a complete form , and that it was performed with the Lydian , or grave , solemn pipe , alternately with the Tyrian . This opinion is also strengthened by the fact that Donatus expressly says that it was performed to the music of Lydian flutes . ]\u2014 L. Anicius Gallus and M. Cornelius Cethegus were Consuls in the year from the Building of the City 592 , and B. C . 161 . ]\u2014 Ver . 6 . Signifying \u201c persons dying together .\u201d The \u201c Commorientes \u201d of Plautus is lost . It has been doubted by some , despite these words of Terence , if Plautus ever did write such a Play . ]\u2014 Ver . 6 . Diphilus was a Greek Poet , contemporary with Menander . ]\u2014 Ver . 20 . According to Donatus , by the words \u201c in bello ,\u201d Terence is supposed to refer to his friend and patron Scipio ; by \u201c in otio ,\u201d to Furius Publius ; and in the words \u201c in negotio \u201d to L\u00e6lius , who was famed for his wisdom . ]\u2014 Ver . 23 . This is similar to the words in the Prologue to the Trinummus of Plautus , l. 16 : \u201c But expect nothing about the plot of this Play ; the old men who will come hither will disclose the matter to you .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 24 . \u201c Advorsum ierant .\u201d On the duties of the \u201c adversitores ,\u201d see the Notes to Bohn \u2019 s Translation of Plautus . ]\u2014 Ver . 36 . Westerhovius observes that this passage seems to be taken from one in the Miles Gloriosus of Plautus , l. 721 , et seq . : \u201c Troth , if I had had them , enough anxiety should I have had from my children ; I should have been everlastingly tormented in mind : but if perchance one had had a fever , I think I should have died . Or if one in liquor had tumbled any where from his horse , I should have been afraid that he had broken his legs or neck on that occasion .\u201d It may be remarked that there is a great resemblance between the characters of Micio here and Periplecomenus in the Miles Gloriosus . ]\u2014 Ver . 81 . Cooke remarks , that though there are several fine passages in this speech , and good observations on human life , yet it is too long a soliloquy . ]\u2014 Ver . 81 . Donatus observes that the Poet has in this place improved upon Menander , in representing Demea as more ready to wrangle with his brother than to return his compliments . ]\u2014 Ver . 82 . The passage pretty clearly means by \u201c ubi nobis \u00c6schinus sit ,\u201d \u201c when I \u2019 ve got such a son as \u00c6schinus .\u201d Madame Dacier , however , would translate it : \u201c Ask me \u2014 you , in whose house \u00c6schinus is ?\u201d thus accusing him of harboring \u00c6schinus ; a very forced construction , however . ]\u2014 Ver . 88 . The works of Ovid and Plautus show that it was no uncommon thing for riotous young men to break open doors ; Ovid even suggests to the lover the expediency of getting into the house through the windows . ]\u2014 Ver . 117 . Colman has the following observation here : \u201c The mild character of Micio is contrasted by Cicero to that of a furious , savage , severe father , as drawn by the famous Comic Poet , Caecilius . Both writers are quoted in the Oration for Caelias , in the composition of which it is plain that the orator kept his eye pretty closely on our Poet . The passages from Caecilius contain all that vehemence and severity , which , as Horace tells us , was accounted the common character of the style of that author .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 117 . For an account of the \u201c unguenta ,\u201d or perfumes in use among the ancients , see the Notes to Bohn \u2019 s translation of Plautus . ]\u2014 Ver . 119 . No doubt by his mistress when she has drained him of his money , and not by Micio himself , as Colman says he was once led to imagine . ]\u2014 Ver . 141 . Donatus observes here , that Terence seems inclined to favor the part of mild fathers . He represents Micio as appalled at his adopted son \u2019 s irregularities , lest if he should appear wholly unmoved , he should seem to be corrupting him , rather than to be treating him with only a proper degree of indulgence . ]\u2014 Ver . 151 . Donatus remarks here , that the art of Terence in preparing his incidents is wonderful . He contrives that even ignorant persons shall open the plot , as in the present instance , where we understand that Aeschinus has mentioned to Micio his intention of taking a wife , though he has not entered into particulars . This naturally leads us to the ensuing parts of the Play , without forestalling any of the circumstances . ]\u2014 Ver . 161 . He says this aloud , and with emphasis , relying upon the laws which were enacted at Athens in favor of the \u201c lenones ,\u201d whose occupation brought great profits to the state , from their extensive trading in slaves . It was forbidden to maltreat them , under pain of being disinherited . ]\u2014 Ver . 188 . Westerhovius supposes this part to be a translation from the works of Diphilus . ]\u2014 Ver . 194 . \u201c Asserere liberati causa ,\u201d was to assert the freedom of a person , with a determination to maintain it at law . The \u201c assertor \u201d laid hands upon the person , declaring that he or she was free ; and till the cause was tried , the person whose freedom was claimed , remained in the hands of the \u201c assertor .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 196 . Colman has a curious remark here : \u201c I do not remember , in the whole circle of modern comedy , a more natural picture of the elegant ease and indifference of a fine gentleman , than that exhibited in this Scene in the character of \u00c6schinus .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 204 . He means , that if he only names a price , \u00c6schinus will suborn witnesses to say that he has agreed to sell her , in which case \u00c6schinus will carry her off with impunity , and the laws will not allow him to recover her ; as it will then be an ordinary debt , and he will be put off with all the common excuses used by debtors . ]\u2014 Ver . 212 . \u201c Certationem comparatam .\u201d This was a term taken from the combats of gladiators , where it was usual to choose as combatants such as seemed most nearly a match for each other . ]\u2014 Ver . 217 . This passage is probably alluded to by Cicero , in his work , De Officiis B. ii . c. 18 : \u201c For it is not only liberal sometimes to give up a little of one \u2019 s rights , but it is also profitable .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 229 . \u201c Ut in ipso articulo oppressit .\u201d Colman translates this , \u201c Nick \u2019 d me to a hair .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 230 . He alludes to a famous slave-market held in the Isle of Cyprus , whither merchants carried slaves for sale , after buying them up in all parts of Greece . ]\u2014 Ver . 236 . \u201c Jamne enumerasti id quod ad te rediturum putes ?\u201d Colman renders this , \u201c Well , have you calculated what \u2019 s your due ?\u201d referring to the value of the Music-girl that has been taken away from him ; and thinks that the following conversation between Sannio and Syrus supports that construction . Madame Dacier puts another sense on the words , and understands them as alluding to Sannio \u2019 s calculation of his expected profits at Cyprus . ]\u2014 Ver . 242 . Donatus remarks , that Syrus knows very well that \u00c6schinus is ready to pay the whole , but offers Sannio half , that he may be glad to take the bare principal , and think himself well off into the bargain . ]\u2014 Ver . 265 . Donatus remarks upon the readiness with which Sannio takes the appellation of \u201c sacrilegus ,\u201d as adapted to no other person than himself . ]\u2014 Ver . 275 . Donatus tells us , that in Menander the young man was on the point of killing himself . Terence has here softened it into leaving the country . Colman remarks : \u201c We know that the circumstance of carrying off the Music-girl was borrowed from Diphilus ; yet it is plain from Donatus that there was also an intrigue by Ctesipho in the Play of Menander ; which gives another proof of the manner in which Terence used the Greek Comedies .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 278 . Donatus remarks that this is a piece of malice on the part of Syrus , for the purpose of teasing Sannio . ]\u2014 Ver . 285 . Those used for the purpose of reclining on at the entertainment . ]\u2014 Ver . 321 . Quoting from Madame Dacier , Colman has this remark here : \u201c Geta \u2019 s reply is founded on a frolicsome but ill-natured custom which prevailed in Greece \u2014 to stop the slaves in the streets , and designedly keep them in chat , so that they might be lashed when they came home for staying out so long .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 333 . It was a prevalent custom with the Greeks to place the newly-born child upon the knee of its grandfather . ]\u2014 Ver . 378 . The operation of boning conger-eels is often mentioned in Plautus , from whom we learn that they were best when eaten in that state , and cold . ]\u2014 Ver . 385 . See a similar passage in the Trinummus of Plautus , l. 722 , whence it appears that it was the practice for young men of ruined fortunes to go and offer their services as mercenaries to some of the neighboring potentates . Many of the ten thousand who fought for the younger Cyrus at the battle of Cunaxa , and were led back under the command of Xenophon , were , doubtless , of this class . ]\u2014 Ver . 428 . He parodies the words of Demea in l. 415 , where he speaks of looking into the lives of men as into a mirror . ]\u2014 Ver . 439 . Solon divided the Athenians into ten tribes , which he named after ten of the ancient heroes : Erectheis , \u00c6geis , Pandionis , Leontis , Acamantis , \u0152neis , Cecrops , Hippothoontis , \u00c6antis , and Antiochis . These tribes were each divided into ten Demi . ]\u2014 Ver . 473 .

In the Play of Menander , Hegio was the brother of Sostrata . ]\u2014 Ver . 500 . \u201c Is , quod mihi de hae re dederat consilium , id sequar .\u201d Coleman has the following Note on this passage : \u201c Madame Dacier rejects this line , because it is also to be found in the Phormio . But it is no uncommon thing with our author to use the same expression or verse for different places , especially on familiar occasions . There is no impropriety in it here , and the foregoing hemistich is rather lame without it . The propriety of consulting Micio , or Demea \u2019 s present ill-humor with him , are of no consequence . The old man is surprised at Hegio \u2019 s story , does not know what to do or say , and means to evade giving a positive answer , by saying that he would consult his brother .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 506 . \u201c Redite .\u201d Demea most probably uses this word , because Hegio has come back to him to repeat the last words for the sake of greater emphasis . ]\u2014 Ver . 512 . Colman has the following Note here : \u201c Donatus tells us , that in some old copies this whole Scene was wanting . Guyetus therefore entirely rejects it . I have not ventured to take that liberty ; but must confess that it appears to me , if not supposititious , at least cold and superfluous , and the substance of it had better been supposed to have passed between Hegio and Sostrata within .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 519 . It is very doubtful whether the words \u201c cum maxime \u201d mean to signify exactly \u201c at this moment ,\u201d or are intended to signify the intensity with which Demea is laboring . ]\u2014 Ver . 522 . Lemaire suggests that by these words Syrus intends to imply that he should not care if Demea were never to arise from his bed , but were to die there . Ctesipho , only taking him heartily to second his own wishes for the old man \u2019 s absence , answers affirmatively \u201c ita ,\u201d \u201c by all means ,\u201d \u201c exactly so .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 529 . Schmieder observes that \u201c tanto nequior \u201d might have two meanings ,\u2014 \u201c so much the worse { for us },\u201d or , as the spectators might understand it , \u201c so much the more worthless you .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 538 . This was a proverbial expression , tantamount to our saying , \u201c Talk of the devil , he \u2019 s sure to appear .\u201d Servius , in his Commentary on the Ninth Eclogue of Virgil , says that the saying arose from the common belief that the person whom a wolf sets his eyes upon is deprived of his voice , and thence came to be applied to a person who , coming upon others in the act of talking about him , necessarily put a stop to their conversation . Cooke says , in reference to this passage , \u201c This certainly alludes to a Fable of \u00c6sop \u2019 s , of the Wolf , the Fox , and the Ape : which is translated by Ph\u00e6drus , and is the tenth of his First Book .\u201d It is much more certain that Cooke is mistaken here , and that the fable of the arbitration of the Ape between the Wolf and the Fox has nothing to do with this passage . If it alludes to any fable, it is more likely to be that where the Nurse threatens that the wolf shall take the naughty Child , on which he makes his appearance , but is disappointed in his expectations , or else that of the Shepherd-boy and the Wolf . See the Stichus of Plautus , l. 57 , where the same expression occurs . ]\u2014 Ver . 542 . Donatus remarks that the Poet artfully contrives to detain Demea in town , his presence being necessary in the latter part of the Play . ]\u2014 Ver . 553 . Donatus observes that the young man was silly in this , for if discovered to be there he would be sure to be caught . His object , however , for going there would be that he might not be discovered . ]\u2014 Ver . 580 . \u201c Censen hominem me esse ?\u201d literally , \u201c Do you take me to be a human being ?\u201d meaning , \u201c Do you take me to be a person in my common senses ?\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 583 . Theobald , in his edition of Shakspeare , observes that the direction given by Lancelot in the Merchant of Venice seems to be copied from that given here by Syrus : \u201c Turn up on your right hand at the next turning , but at the next turning of all on your left ; marry , at the very next turning of no hand , but turn down indirectly to the Jew \u2019 s house .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 584 . From this we discover that Demea is being sent to the very extremity of the town , as Donatus informs us that ponds of water were always close to the gates of towns , for the purpose of watering the beasts of burden , and of having a supply at hand in case the enemy should set fire to the city gates . ]\u2014 Ver . 586 . Donatus remarks that it was usual for the Greeks to sit and drink in the sun ; and that Syrus being suddenly asked this question shows his presence of mind by giving this circumstantial answer , that he may the better impose upon Demea . The couches used on such occasions may be presumed to have required stout legs , and to be made of hard wood , such as oak , to prevent them from splitting . Two instances of couches being used for carousing in the open air will be found in the last Scenes of the Asinaria and Stichus of Plautus . ]\u2014 Ver . 588 . \u201c Silicernium .\u201d This was said to be the name of a funeral entertainment or dish of meats offered up to the \u201c umbr\u00e6 \u201d or \u201c manes ,\u201d in silence . The word is also said to have been applied to an old man from his stooping postures , \u201c silices cernit ,\u201d \u201c he looks at the stones .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 590 . \u201c Totus ,\u201d literally , \u201c quite \u201d or \u201c altogether .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 592 . As to the \u201c cyathi \u201d and cups of the ancients , see the last Scene of the Stichus of Plautus , which is a perfect specimen of a carousal among the lower classes in ancient times . See also the last Scene of the Asinaria . The slaves generally appear to have taken part in the entertainments with their young masters . ]\u2014 Ver . 606 . These lines are supposed to be founded on some verses of Menander which are still extant . ]\u2014 Ver . 655 . It appears to have been a law given by Solon to the Athenians that the next male relative of suitable age should marry a female orphan himself , or find her a suitable portion . Madame Dacier suggests that the custom was derived from the Ph\u0153nicians , who had received it from the Jews , and quotes the Book of Numbers , xxxvi . 8 . This law forms the basis of the plot of the Phormio . ]\u2014 Ver . 658 . A colony of Athens , on the coast of Asia Minor . ]\u2014 Ver . 673 . Donatus observes that these questions , which enumerate all the proofs requisite for a marriage , are an indirect and very delicate reproof of \u00c6schinus for the irregular and clandestine nature of his proceedings . ]\u2014 Ver . 707 . Donatus remarks that there is great delicacy in this compliment of \u00c6schinus to Micio , which , though made in his presence , does not bear the semblance of flattery . Madame Dacier thinks that Terence here alludes to a line of Hesiod , which says that it is the duty of the aged to pray . Colman suggests that the passage is borrowed from some lines of Menander still in existence . ]\u2014 Ver . 730 . He pauses after \u201c quidem ,\u201d but he means to say that if he had his choice , he would rather it had not been so . ]\u2014 Ver . 742 . The \u201c tesser\u00e6 \u201d of the ancients were cubes , or what we call \u201c dice ;\u201d while the \u201c tali \u201d were in imitation of the knuckle-bones of animals , and were marked on four sides only . For some account of the mode of playing with the \u201c tali ,\u201d see the last Scene of the Asinaria , and the Curculio of Plautus , l. 257-9 . Madame Dacier suggests that Menander may possibly have borrowed this passage from the Republic of Plato , B. X ., where he says , \u201c We should take counsel from accidents , and , as in a game at dice , act according to what has fallen , in the manner which reason tells us to be the best .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 755 . \u201c Restim ductans saltabis .\u201d Donatus and Madame Dacier think that this is only a figurative expression for a dance in which all joined hands ; according to some , however , a dance is alluded to where the person who led off drew a rope or cord after him , which the rest of the company took hold of as they danced ; which was invented in resemblance of the manner in which the wooden horse was dragged by ropes into the city of Troy . ]\u2014 Ver . 764 . See an observation relative to the translation of the word \u201c Salus ,\u201d in the Notes to Plautus , vol . i. pages 193 , 450 . ]\u2014 Ver . 767 .

So Ergasilus says in the Captivi of Plautus , l. 912 , \u201c Now I will go off to my government, to give laws to the bacon .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 795 . Colman remarks on this passage : \u201c The character of Micio appears extremely amiable through the first four Acts of this Comedy , and his behavior is in many respects worthy of imitation ; but his conduct in conniving at the irregularities of Ctesipho , and even assisting him to support them , is certainly reprehensible . Perhaps the Poet threw this shade over his virtues on purpose to show that mildness and good-humor might be carried to excess .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 824 . Colman observes here : \u201c Madame Dacier makes an observation on this speech , something like that of Donatus on one of Micio \u2019 s above ; and says that Micio , being hard put to it by the real circumstances of the case , thinks to confound Demea by a nonsensical gallimatia . I can not be of the ingenious lady \u2019 s opinion on this matter , for I think a more sensible speech could not be made , nor a better plea offered in favor of the young men , than that of Micio in the present instance .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 851 .

See the Casina of Plautus , Act IV ., Scenes 3 and 4 , for some account of the marriage ceremonial . The torches , music-girls , processions , and hymeneal song , generally accompanied a wedding , but from the present passage we may conclude that they were not considered absolutely necessary . ]\u2014 Ver . 911 . The \u201c maceria ,\u201d or garden-wall of loose stones , is also mentioned in the Truculentus of Plautus , l . 301 . ]\u2014 Ver . 918 . This passage has much puzzled the Commentators ; but it seems most probable that it is said aside , and that in consequence of his profuseness he calls his brother a Babylonian ,and says , \u201c Well , let him , with all my heart , be paying twenty min\u00e6for music-girl .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 940 . \u00c6schinus , probably , in his earnestness , has seized hold of him with his hand , which Micio now pushes away . ]\u2014 Ver . 943 . This is not the truth ; the notion has only been started since he last saw them . ]\u2014 Ver . 946 . \u201c Vis est h\u00e6c quidem .\u201d The same expression occurs in the Captivi of Plautus , l. 755 . The expression seemed to be a common one with the Romans . According to Suetonius , Julius C\u00e6sar used it when attacked by his murderers in the senate-house . On Tullius Cimber seizing hold of his garments , he exclaimed , \u201c Ita quidem vis est !\u201d\u2014 \u201c Why , really , this is violence !\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 947 . Donatus informs us that in Menander \u2019 s Play , the old man did not make any resistance whatever to the match thus patched up for him . Colman has the following observation on this fact : \u201c It is surprising that none of the critics on this passage have taken notice of this observation of Donatus , especially as our loss of Menander makes it rather curious . It is plain that Terence in the plan of his last Act followed Menander ; but though he has adopted the absurdity of marrying Micio to the old lady , yet we learn from Donatus that his judgment rather revolted at this circumstance , and he improved on his original by making Micio express a repugnance to such a match , which it seems he did not in the Play of Menander .\u201d]\u2014 Ver . 961 . He probably means , by aping the kind feeling which is a part of Micio \u2019 s character . ]\u2014 Ver . 969 .

He refused at first . But on his father pressing more urgently , he caused him to become wavering in his mind , whether to yield rather to duty or to love . By hammering on and teazing him , at last the old man gained his point ; and betrothed him to the daughter of our next-door neighbor hereThis did not seem so very disagreeable to Pamphilus , until on the very point of marriage , when he saw that all was ready , and that no respite was granted , but marry he must ; then , at last , he took it so much to heart , that I do believe if Bacchis had been present , { even } she would have pitied him .

Lest any of you wonder , why the Bard To an old actor hath assign 'd the part Sustain 'd of old by young performers ; that I 'll first explain : then say what brings To-day , a whole play , wholly from the Greek , We mean to represent :\u2014 The Self-Tormentor : Wrought from a single to a double plot . Now therefore that our comedy is new , And what it is , I 've shown : who wrote it too , And whose in Greek it is , were I not sure Most of you knew already , would I tell . But , wherefore I have ta'en this part upon me , In brief I will deliver : for the Bard Has sent me here as pleader , not as Prologue ; You he declares his judges , me his counsel : And yet as counsel nothing can I speak More than the Author teaches me to say , Who wrote th \u2019 oration which I now recite . As to reports , which envious men have spread , That he has ransack 'd many Grecian plays , While he composes some few Latin ones , That he denies not , he has done ; nor does Repent he did it ; means to do it still ; Safe in the warrant and authority Of greater bards , who did long since the same . Then for the charge , that his arch-enemy Maliciously reproaches him withal , That he but lately hath applied himself To music , with the genius of his friends , Rather than natural talents , fraught ; how true , Your judgment , your opinion , must decide . I would entreat you , therefore , not to lean To tales of slander , rather than of candor . Be favorable ; nurse with growing hopes The bards , who give you pleasing novelties ; Pleasing I say , not such as His I mean , Who lately introduc 'd a breathless slave , Making the crowd give way \u2014 But wherefore trace A dunce 's faults ? which shall be shown at large , When more he writes , unless he cease to rail . Attend impartially ! and let me once Without annoyance act an easy part ; Lest your old servant be o'erhYpppHeNlabor ' d still With toilsome characters , the running slave , The eating parasite , enrag 'd old man , The bold-fac 'd sharper , covetous procurer ; Parts , that ask pow'rs of voice , and iron sides . Deign then , for my sake , to accept this plea , And grant me some remission from my labor . For they , who now produce new comedies , Spare not my age ! If there is aught laborious , They run to me ; but if of little weight , Away to others . In our piece to-day The style is pure : now try my talents then In either character . If I for gain , Never o'erhYpppHeNrated my abilities ; If I have held it still my chief reward To be subservient to your pleasure ; fix In me a fair example , that our youth May seek to please you , rather than themselves .

TheklaThe oak-forest bellows , the clouds gather , the damsel walks to and fro on the green of the shore ; the wave breaks with might , with might , and she sings out into the dark night , her eye discoloured with weeping : the heart is dead , the world is empty , and further gives it nothing more to the wish . Thou Holy One , call thy child home . I have enjoyed the happiness of this world , I have lived and have loved . I cannot but add here an imitation of this song , with which the author of The Tale of Rosamond Gray and Blind Margaret has favoured me , and which appears to me to have caught the happiest manner of our old ballads . The clouds are black'ning , the storms threat'ning , The cavern doth mutter , the greenwood moan ; Billows are breaking , the damsel 's heart aching , Thus in the dark night she singeth alone , Her eye upward roving : The world is empty , the heart is dead surely , In this world plainly all seemeth amiss ; To thy heaven , Holy One , take home thy little one , I have partaken of all earth 's bliss , Both living and loving . The text of Lamb 's version as printed in Works , 1818 , i . 42 is as follows : BALLAD . FROM THE GERMAN . The clouds are blackening , the storms threatening , And ever the forest maketh a moan : Billows are breaking , the damsel 's heart aching , Thus by herself she singeth alone , Weeping right plenteously . The world is empty , the heart is dead surely , In this world plainly all seemeth amiss : To thy breast , holy one , take now thy little one , I have had earnest of all earth 's bliss Living most lovingly .

TheklaThe oak-forest bellows , the clouds gather , the damsel walks to and fro on the green of the shore ; the wave breaks with might , with might , and she sings out into the dark night , her eye discoloured with weeping : the heart is dead , the world is empty , and further gives it nothing more to the wish . Thou Holy One , call thy child home . I have enjoyed the happiness of this world , I have lived and have loved . I cannot but add here an imitation of this song , with which the author of The Tale of Rosamond Gray and Blind Margaret has favoured me , and which appears to me to have caught the happiest manner of our old ballads . The clouds are black'ning , the storms threat'ning , The cavern doth mutter , the greenwood moan ; Billows are breaking , the damsel 's heart aching , Thus in the dark night she singeth alone , Her eye upward roving : The world is empty , the heart is dead surely , In this world plainly all seemeth amiss ; To thy heaven , Holy One , take home thy little one , I have partaken of all earth 's bliss , Both living and loving . The text of Lamb 's version as printed in Works , 1818 , i . 42 is as follows : BALLAD . FROM THE GERMAN . The clouds are blackening , the storms threatening , And ever the forest maketh a moan : Billows are breaking , the damsel 's heart aching , Thus by herself she singeth alone , Weeping right plenteously . The world is empty , the heart is dead surely , In this world plainly all seemeth amiss : To thy breast , holy one , take now thy little one , I have had earnest of all earth 's bliss Living most lovingly .

LAURA crosses up to mirror , picks up hat from box , puts it on , looks in mirror . She turns around and looks at him steadfastly for a minute . During this entire scene , from the time the curtain rises , she must in a way indicate a premonition of an approaching catastrophe , a feeling , vague but nevertheless palpable , that something is going to happen . She must hold this before her audience so that she can show to them , without showing to him , the disgust she feels . LAURA has tasted of the privations of self-sacrifice during her struggle , and she has weakly surrendered and is unable to go back , but that brief period of self-abnegation has shown to her most clearly the rottenness of the other sort of living . There are enough sentimentality and emotion in her character to make it impossible for her to accept this manner of existence as ELFIE does . Hers is not a nature of careless candour , but of dreamy ideals and better living , warped , handicapped , disillusioned , and destroyed by a weakness that finds its principal force in vanity . WILL resumes his newspaper in a more attentive way .

I 'm sorry I hurt you , but there was too much wine last night and I 'm all upset . Forgive me . LAURA , in order to avoid his caresses , has leaned forward ; her hands are clasped between her knees , and she is looking straight outward with a cold , impassive expression . WILL regards her silently for a moment . Really in the man 's heart there is an affection , and really he wants to try to comfort her ; but he seems to realize that she has slipped away from the old environment and conditions , and that he simply bought her back ; that he has n't any of her affection , even with his money ; that she evinces toward him none of the old camaraderie ; and it hurts him , as those things always hurt a selfish man , inclining him to be brutal and inconsiderate . WILL crosses to centre , and stands reading paper ; bell rings ; a pause and second bell . WILL seizes upon this excuse to go up-stage and over towards the door .", "Damn that bell . He continues on his way ; he opens the door , leaves it open , and passes on to the outer door , which he opens .

Everybody laughs , and crowds round you to examine the watches , and you make fun and crack jokes at your own expense all the time , and pretty soon old Bemis says , \u201c Why , this is MY watch , NOW ! \u201d and you laugh more than ever \u2014 \u2019", "\u2018 Oh no , it would n't . You 'd be in the spirit of it by that time . \u2019", "\u2018 And then you say , \u201c Well , this is the most remarkable coincidence I ever heard of .

It 'll put old Bemis in the wrong , do n't you see ? It 'll show that instead of letting the fellow escape to go and rob HIM , you attacked him and took Bemis 's property back from him yourself . Bemis would n't have a word to say . All you 've got to do is to keep up a light , confident manner . \u2019", "\u2018 Well , then , you must trust to inspiration , and adapt yourself to circumstances . \u2019", "\u2018 On you it would ; and a year from now \u2014 say next Christmas \u2014 you could get the laugh on Bemis that way .

But with this plan of mine \u2014 \u2019 ROBERTS , in despair : \u2018 I could n't , Willis . I do n't feel light , and I do n't feel confident , and I could n't act it . If it were a simple lie \u2014 \u2019", "\u2018 Oh , lies are never simple ; they require the exercise of all your ingenuity . If you want something simple , you must stick to the truth , and throw yourself on Bemis 's mercy . \u2019 ROBERTS , walking up and down in great distress : \u2018 I can n't do it ; I can n't do it . It 's very kind of you to think it all out for me , but \u2019 \u2014 struck by a sudden idea \u2014 \u2018 Willis , why should n't YOU do it ? \u2019 WILLIS : \u2018 I ? \u2019", "\u2018 Yes , he 'll be there . Run along back , and keep it going till we come . Roberts , I would n't take a thousand dollars for this chance . \u2019", "\u2018 Like it ? Of course I do . Or no ! Hold on ! Wait ! It wo n't do !

In that I never see myself disappointed , and for that reason I do n't give up the old habit . But about men I never think anything , good or bad , and then I do n't have to turn alternately red and white when they disappoint my fears one minute and my hopes the next . I merely observe them and use the evidence of my eyes , which likewise do not think , but only see . I thought I had made a complete observation of you , but now that I find you here I must confess that it was only half an observation .", "Do you think so ? Yes , we old people owe hearty thanks to death for allowing us to run around so long among you young folks , thereby giving us an opportunity to educate ourselves . Formerly the stupid world used to think that the father was there to educate his son . But now the son is supposed to give his father the final touch of perfection , so that the poor , simple man will not need to feel ashamed of himself before the worms in his grave . God be praised ! I have a fine teacher in my son Carl who , without sparing his old child by indulgence , takes the field against my prejudices . He taught me two new lessons this very morning , and in the most clever way , without opening his mouth and without even letting me see him \u2014 yes , by that very means . In the first place , he showed me that it is not necessary for a man to keep his word ; in the second , that it is superfluous to go to church and freshen up one 's memory of God 's laws . Yesterday evening he promised me that he would go , and I counted on his doing it , for I thought to myself : He will want to thank the gracious Creator for the recovery of his mother . But he was n't there , and I was very comfortable all alone in my pew , which , to be sure , is a little too short for two persons anyway . I wonder if he would like it if I myself were to act in accordance with the new doctrine , by not keeping my word with him ? I have promised him a new suit for his birthday , and I might take the opportunity to test his joy over my docility . But prejudice ! Prejudice ! I shall not do it !", "Possibly ! I need only to ask my wife , then I am sure to hear that he is sick . For she tells me the truth about everything else in the world , but never about the boy . And even if he was not sick !\u2014 There too the younger generation has the advantage over us old folks , in that they can find their spiritual edification anywhere , and can do their worshipping when they are out trapping birds , or taking a walk , or sitting in the ale-house . \u201c Our Father who art in Heaven \u201d \u2014 \u201c Good day , Peter , shall I see you at the dance this evening ? \u201d \u2014 \u201c Hallowed be Thy name \u201d \u2014 \u201c Yes , laugh if you will , Catherine , but it is true \u201d \u2014 \u201c Thy will be done \u201d \u2014 \u201c The devil take me , I am not shaved yet ! \u201d \u2014 and so forth . And each one pronounces the blessing on himself , for he is a man just as much as the preacher , and the power that emanates from a black garb certainly exists in a blue one as well . Nor have I anything to say against it ; even if you want to intersperse the seven petitions with seven glasses , what of it ? I can n't prove to anybody that beer and religion do n't mix well , and perhaps it will some day get into the liturgy as a new way of taking the Eucharist . Frankly , I myself , old sinner that I am , am not strong enough to keep pace with fashion ; I cannot catch up worship in the street , as if it were a cockchafer ; for me the chirping of swallows and sparrows cannot take the place of the organ . If I want to feel my heart exalted , I must hear the heavy , iron doors of the church close behind me and think to myself that they are the doors of the world . The dismal high walls with their narrow windows , that admit but a dim remnant of the bold garish daylight as if they were sifting it , must surround me on all sides . And in the distance I must be able to see the charnel-house , with its death-head cut in the wall . Oh well , better is better .", "Of course ! Of course ! And today , as an honest man , I must confess that what I have been saying did not hold good ; for I lost my reverent mood in church , being annoyed by the vacant seat beside me , and found it again under the pear-tree in my garden . You are astonished ? But look ! I went sadly and dejectedly home , like one whose harvest has been ruined by hail ; for children are like fields \u2014 we sow good corn in them and weeds sprout up . Under the pear-tree , which the caterpillars have half eaten up , I stood still . \u201c Yes , \u201d I thought , \u201c the boy is like this tree , empty and barren . \u201d Then I suddenly imagined that I was very thirsty , and absolutely had to go over to the tavern . I deceived myself \u2014 it was n't to get a glass of beer that I wanted to go ; it was to seek out the young man and take him to task in the tavern , where I knew he was sure to be . I was just about to start , when the sensible old tree let fall a juicy pear right at my feet , as if to say : Take that for your thirst , and for slandering me by comparing me with that good-for-nothing son of yours . I deliberated a moment , took a bite of it , and went into the house .", "What do I care ?", "Surely ! I am a Christian \u2014 the man has several children !", "Happy is he who is neither the one nor the other !", "That was settled up long ago .", "Yes , I need not tremble any more with the fear of losing it \u2014 it was lost long ago !", "In all seriousness ! CLARADid you call , father ?", "Are your ears beginning to ring already ?

I call that sympathy !", "Certainly not !", "That wood is not transparent , is it ?", "How foolish it was of our grandfather Adam to take Eve , when she was naked and destitute , and did not even bring a fig-leaf with her . We two , you and I , would have scourged her out of Paradise as a tramp ! What do you think ?", "You had better be careful !\u2014 Perhaps I 'll not say no !", "Things went hard with me in my early years . I was no more of a bristly hedgehog than you when I came into the world , but I have gradually grown to be one . At first all the quills in my case pointed inward , and people found pleasure in pricking and pinching my soft smooth skin , and were amused to see me flinch when the points penetrated into my very heart and bowels . But the thing did not appeal to me ; I turned my skin inside out and then the quills pricked their fingers and I had peace . LEONARDSafe from the very devil , methinks !", "My father , by not allowing himself any rest day or night , worked himself to death in his thirtieth year , and my mother nourished me as well as she could with her spinning . I grew up without learning anything . When I became larger and was still unable to earn any money , I would gladly have disaccustomed myself to eating ; but when now and then at noon I would pretend to be sick and push back my plate , what did it mean ? It meant that in the evening my stomach would compel me to announce myself well again ! My greatest grief was that I was so unskilled . I used to blame myself for it , as if it were my own fault , as if in my mother 's womb I had been supplied with nothing but teeth to eat with , as if I had purposely left behind me there all the useful capabilities and assets . I used to blush with shame when the sun shone on me . Just after my confirmation the man whom they buried yesterday , Master Gebhard , came into our house . He scowled and made a wry face , as he always used to frown when he had anything good in mind to do . Then he said to my mother : \u201c Did you bring your youngster into the world in order to let him eat the very nose and ears off your head ? \u201d I felt ashamed and put the loaf of bread , from which I was just on the point of cutting off a piece , back into the cupboard again . My mother took offense at his well-meant words ; she stopped her wheel and replied vehemently that her son was a fine good fellow . \u201c Well , we will see about that , \u201d said the Master . \u201c If he wants to , he can come right now , just as he stands there , into my workshop with me . I do not ask any money for teaching him ; he will get his board , and his clothes I will also supply ; and if he wants to get up early and go to bed late , opportunities will not be wanting for him to earn a little money on the side for his old mother . \u201d My mother began to cry and I to dance . When we finally came to an agreement , the Master closed up his ears , walked out , and motioned me to follow . I did not need to put a hat on , for I had none . Without saying good-by to my mother , I went after him . And on the following Sunday , when I was allowed to go back to her little room for the first time , he gave me half a ham to take with me . God 's blessing on the good man 's grave ! I still hear his half-angry : \u201c Tony , under your coat with it , so my wife wo n't see it ! \u201d", "On account of the scar . And supposing you arrived in time to help save him , but to do it you had not only to wrench the knife out of his hand and bandage the wound , but you had also to give over a paltry thousand thalers that you had saved up ; and , furthermore , you had to do it all absolutely on the sly , so as to induce the sick man to accept it , what would you do ?", "And if you had ten wives , like the Turks , and as many children as were promised to Father Abraham , and if you took only one second to think about it , you would be \u2014 Well , you are to be my son-in-law ! Now you know where the money is . Today I could tell you , for my old Master is buried ; a month ago I would have kept the secret even on my death-bed . I slipped the note under the dead man 's head before they nailed up the coffin . If I had known how to write , I would have written underneath : \u201c Honestly paid ! \u201d But , ignorant as I am , there was nothing for me to do but tear the paper in two . Now he will sleep in peace \u2014 and I hope that I shall too , when they stretch me out beside him ."], "true_target": [""], "play_index": 1114, "act_index": 0}, {"query": ["At last !\u2014 You should not kiss so much !

I thought perhaps it was you , and went in that direction . But it must have been Robert Stein . He was walking up and down there by the first bridge like a sentinel . I thought to myself : What can he be waiting for ? Not for game ; for in that case one does n't run up and down ; I thought : You must get to the bottom of this . You get behind the high oak . There you can see everything and can n't be seen . But I was hardly there , when I heard a commotion behind me . And what was it I heard ? Your Andrew and Robert in a most violent dispute . I could not understand anything clearly , but one could hear that they were after each other for life and death . I was just about to creep closer , when they already came rushing along . The one on the further side of the brook on the rocky path , the other on this side . The one on this side was Robert with his gun against his cheek . Two steps from me he stopped \u2014 \u201c Stand or I shoot . \u201d On the rocky path no two persons can pass each other . There it is \u2014 \u201c Man , fight for your life . \u201d And now , pif ! paf !\u2014 two shots in succession . The bullet from the one on the rock whistled between me and Robert into the bushes . But Robert 's bullet \u2014 Ulrich , I have heard many a shot , but never such a one . One could hear by the sound of the lead , it scented human life . I do not know what sensation I felt when he on the other side collapsed like a wounded stag \u2014", "Who else could it have been ? Hey ? Perhaps he 's home ? Perhaps you know where else he is ? And the person that was shot had the rifle with the yellow strap . He held it tight . The strap really glistened in the twilight like a signal of distress . It was a weird sound , as the iron parts of the gun in falling struck the rocks and the corpse tumbled after it , breaking the bushes \u2014 till there was a splash in the brook below , as if it started in terror . And when , after this , there succeeded such a strange stillness , as if it had to bethink itself of what had really happened , I had a sensation as though some one were pursuing me . I should have been back half an hour ago , if I had not lost my way \u2014 I , who know every tree thereabouts . Now you may imagine how I felt ! Not until I had reached the second bridge there toward Haslau , did I have courage to stop a moment to take breath \u2014 there where the brook is roaring among the rocks . Accidentally I looked down . There the brook was playing with a colored rag . Do you know it , perhaps ?", "Your face is quite distorted . I am going to call your wife . FORESTERNever mind !

But \u2014 the fact is , we 're rather upset here for the moment .", "Now , if it is n't an indiscreet question , how did you know that there was illness ?", "Pneumonia .", "Mercy ?", "Coming over from the Continent .", "Mr. Shawn ? Oh no , no ! It 's Ilam Carve .", "And who told you that ?", "You think he will ?", "Well , if you could call again \u2014\u2014", "Not precisely a message .

Well , perhaps you do n't go in for art much . If you did , you 'd know that the usual and correct thing for a painter who has made a great success with a life-size picture of a policeman blowing his whistle , is to keep on doing life-size pictures of a policeman blowing his whistle for ever and ever , so that the public can always count on getting from him a life-size picture of a policeman blowing his whistle .", "Seeing the way he invariably flouted the public , it 's always been a mystery to me how he managed to make a name , to say nothing of money .", "No , not Alcar . I think the bobby was last bought by Texel .", "Collector \u2014 United States \u2014 one of their kings , I 'm told .", "Really ! That 's what I should call influence . No .

You see we never come to England .", "Yes . I 've looked at his prices . Titian 's prices are higher , but Titian is n't what you 'd call famous with the general public , is he ? What I want to know is \u2014 is the governor famous among the general public ?", "About how famous should you say he is ?", "No , it is n't . Is he as famous as \u2014 er \u2014 Harry Lauder ?", "Is he as famous as Harry Vardon ?", "I only see these names in the papers . Is he as famous as Bernard", "Shaw ?", "Oh , well that 's not so bad . Better than I thought ! It 's so difficult to judge where one is \u2014 er \u2014 personally concerned . Especially if you 're never on the spot .", "Why should he come to England ? He is n't a portrait painter . It 's true he owns this house , but surely that is n't sufficient excuse for living in a place like England ?", "Well , there is .", "Have a cigarette ?", "Oh !He gave it me .", "Well , you see we 're more like brothers \u2014 been together so long . He gives me his best suits too . Look at this waistcoat .", "Yes \u2014 shyness .", "Just simple shyness . Shyness is a disease with the governor , a perfect disease .", "Did you notice it ?", "Pardon me . My esteemed employer 's shyness is a special shyness . He 's only shy when he has to play the celebrity . So long as people take him for no one in particular he 's quite all right . For instance , he 's never shy with me . But instantly people approach him as the celebrity , instantly he sees in the eye of the beholder any consciousness of being in the presence of a toff \u2014 then he gets desperately shy , and his one desire is to be alone at sea or to be buried somewhere deep in the bosom of the earth .What are you laughing at ?", "No , but seriously ! It 's true what I tell you . It amounts almost to a tragedy in the brilliant career of my esteemed . You see now that England would be impossible for him as a residence . You see , do n't you ?", "Why , even on the Continent , in the big towns and the big hotels , we often travel incognito for safety . It 's only in the country districts that he goes about under his own name .", "None , except a few Italian and Spanish peasants \u2014 and me .", "Oh , not so bad as that ! And then it 's only fair to say he has his moments of great daring \u2014 you may say rashness .", "Are they ?We 're here now owing to one of his moments of rashness .", "Yes . We met an English lady in a village in Andalusia , and \u2014 well , of course , I can n't tell you everything \u2014 but she flirted with him and he flirted with her .", "Yes . And then he proposed to her . I knew all along it was a blunder .", "Yes . She belonged to the aristocracy , and she was one of those amateur painters that wander about the Continent by themselves \u2014 you know .", "Oh yes . They got as far as Madrid together , and then all of a sudden my esteemed saw that he had made a mistake .", "We fled the country . We hooked it .

For example , we might argue the artistic value of the pictures admittedly the work of Mr. X . That would probably occupy us for about ten years . Or we might ask ourselves how it happened that that exceedingly astute dealer , Mr. Ebag , came to sell as a genuine Ilam Carve , without offering any explanation , a picture which , on the face of it , was painted some time after that great painter had received a national funeral in Westminster Abbey .", "Or we might ask ourselves why a valet should try to pass himself off as a world-renowned artist .
