第147章 OUT OF TUNE (1)

'I have no wrong, where I can claim no right,Naught ta'en me fro, where I have nothing had,Yet of my woe I cannot so be quite;Namely, since that another may he gladWith that, that thus in sorrow makes me sad.'WYATT. Margaret had not expected much pleasure to herself from Mr. Bell's visit--she had only looked forward to it on her father's account, but when her godfather came, she at once fell into the most natural position of friendship in the world. He said she had no merit in being what she was, a girl so entirely after his own heart; it was an hereditary power which she had, to walk in and take possession of his regard; while she, in reply, gave him much credit for being so fresh and young under his Fellow's cap and gown. 'Fresh and young in warmth and kindness, I mean. I'm afraid I must own, that I think your opinions are the oldest and mustiest I have met with this long time.' 'Hear this daughter of yours, Hale Her residence in Milton has quite corrupted her. She's a democrat, a red republican, a member of the Peace Society, a socialist--' 'Papa, it's all because I'm standing up for the progress of commerce. Mr.

Bell would have had it keep still at exchanging wild-beast skins for acorns.' 'No, no. I'd dig the ground and grow potatoes. And I'd shave the wild-beast skins and make the wool into broad cloth. Don't exaggerate, missy. But I'm tired of this bustle. Everybody rushing over everybody, in their hurry to get rich.' 'It is not every one who can sit comfortably in a set of college rooms, and let his riches grow without any exertion of his own. No doubt there is many a man here who would be thankful if his property would increase as yours has done, without his taking any trouble about it,' said Mr. Hale. 'I don't believe they would. It's the bustle and the struggle they like.
