I do not think he will. I say, I believe I shall give younger Farnie the tip as soon as more, and let him take it or go away it. We shall all the time be saying to the opposite angels, "Fine day to-day," and they are going to be always retorting, "But it isn't to-day, it's to-morrow." We shall be in a state of confusion all the time and shall by no means know what true happiness is.

The farmer grunted, missed by inches, and retired, leaving the crimson ball within the jaws of the pocket, what is billiards and Farnie with three to make to win. This will breed vacillation and uncertainty in its opinions about religion, and politics, and business, and sweethearts, and everything, and can undermine its ideas, and rot them away, and make the poor factor characterless, and its success in life unimaginable.

Here a poet can talk poetry as much as he wants, however at the same time he hears one thing moreover poetry. I told him he must do his rubáiyátting at house, and he made a scene, to avoid which I hastened with my guest over to the billiard-room; and there, stretched at full length on the pool-table, was Robert Burns making an attempt to put in writing a sonnet on the cloth with chalk in less time than Villon may prove one other, with two lines start, on the billiard-desk with the identical writing supplies.
