Ill: Keeping One's Place IT is a fortunate matter that my misalliance with Touisset was contracted not with a per- son, but a place. Had it been the former, I should have proved an intolerable wife. Not un- faithful, mind you. There have been at least twelve summers to show how eagerly I make re- turn to bed and board. But times there have been when my fidelity was a discomfortable virtue, [55].

VII: Job's Pool IN one of the five porches of Bethesda stood a sheepman who looked upon the pool with un- imaginative eyes. About its rim he saw a crowd collected, eager and expectant, and he wondered at the faith that drew them to this place. It was, you see, his sheep-pond and as such a mere con- venience.

XVII: Condescension that Withers IF you purchased a cheap car, you would not, I know, engage a chauffeur who had run only those of an impressive make. You would have the wisdom to foresee machinery turned muhsh and an engine stalled. But I have never hired a gardener who, hecause of his own garden, did not have a snobbish attitude towards mine.

Two quick strokes of the pen in a fork to represent a biped, a flat stroke above him, the proffered roof. Take the horizontal stroke away and you have mere man, destitute and seeking shelter.
