quence. Before she left the workshop that
morning, she had learned that a thousand
knowledges are needed to build up the pyramid
on whose top alone will the bird of knowledge
lay her new ^g^.

When he had finished his explanation, lord
Herbert returned to his work, leaving Dorothy
again to her own observations. And now she
would gladly have questioned him about the
huge mass of brick and iron, which, now stand-
ing silent, cold, and motionless as death, had
that night seemed alive with the fierce energy
of flame, and yet sorely driven, sighing, and
groaning, and furiously hissing ; but as it was
not now at work, she thought it would be better
to wait an opportunity when it should be in the
agony of its wrestle with whatever unseen
enemy it coped withal. She did not know that,
the first of its race, it was not quite equal to the



Dorothy s Initiation. 245

task the magician had imposed upon it, but that
its descendants would at length become capable
of doing a thousand times as much, with the
swinging joy of conscious might, with the pant
of the giant, not the groan of the overtasked
stripling urging his last effort.

She was standing by a chest, examining
the strangely elaborate and mysterious-looking
scutcheon of its lock, when his lordship's ham-
mering ceased, and presently she found that he
was by her side.

' That escutcheon is the best thing of the
kind I have yet made,' he said. ' A humour I
have, never to be contented to produce any
invention the second time, without appearing
refined. The lock and key of this are in them-
selves a marvel, for the little triangle screwed
key weighs no more than a shilling, and yet it
bolts and unbolts an hundred bolts through
fifty staples round about the chest, and as many
more from both sides and ends, and at the self-
same time shall fasten it to a place beyond a
man's natural strength to take it away. But
the best thing is the escutcheon ; for the owner
of it, though a woman, may with her own
delicate hand vary the ways of coming to open



246 S^. George and St, Michael.

the lock ten millions of times, beyond the
knowledge of the smith that made it, or of me
who invented it. If a stranger open it, it
setteth an alarm agoing, which the stranger
cannot stop from running out ; and besides,
though none should .be within hearing, yet it
catcheth his hand, as a trap doth a fox ; and
though far from maiming him, yet it leaveth
such a mark behind it, as will discover him
if suspected ; the escutcheon or lock plainly
showing what moneys he hath taken out of the
box to a farthing, and how many times opened
since the owner hath been at it.'

He then showed her how to set it, left the
chest open, and gave her the key off his bunch
that she might use it more easily. Ere she
returned it, she had made herself mistress of
the escutcheon as far as the mere working of it
w^as concerned, as she proved to the satisfaction
of the inventor.

Her docility and quickness greatly pleased
him. He opened a cabinet, and after a search
in its drawers, took from it a little thing, in
form and colour like a plum, which he gave her,
telling her to eat it. She saw from his smile
that there was something at the back of the



Dorothy s Initiation. 247

playful request, and for a moment hesitated, but
reading in his countenance that he wished her
at least to make the attempt, she put it in her
mouth.

She was gagged. She could neither open
nor shut her mouth a hair's breadth, could
neither laugh, cry out, nor make any noise
beyond an ugly one she would not make twice.
The tears came into her eyes, for her position
was ludicrous, and she imagined that his lord-
ship was making game of her. A girl less
serious or more merry would have been moved
only to laughter.

But lord Herbert hastened to relieve her.
On the application of a tiny key, fixed with a
joint in a finger-ring, the little steel bolts it
had thrown out in every direction returned
within the plum, and he drew it from her
mouth.

' You little fool ! ' he said, with indescribable
sweetness, for he saw the tears in her eyes ;
* did you think I would hurt you ? '

' No, my lord ; but I did fear you were going
to make game of me. I could not have borne
Caspar to see me so.'

' Alas, my poor child ! ' he rejoined, ' you



248 S^. Geo7^ge and St. Michael.

have come to the wrong house if you cannot
put up with a Httle chafing. There ! ' he
added, putting the plum in her hand, ' it is an
untoothsome thing, but the moment may come
when you will find it useful enough to repay
you for the annoyance of a smile that had in
it ten times more friendship than merriment'

' I ask your pardon, my lord,' said Dorothy,
by this time blushing deep with shame of her
mistrust and over-sensitiveness, and on the
point of crying downright. But his lordship
smiled so kindly that she took heart and smiled
again.

He then showed her how to raise the key
hid in the ring, and how to unlock the plum.

' Do not try it on yourself,' he said, as he put
the ring on her finger ; ' you might find that
awkward.'

' Be sure I shall avoid it, my lord,' returned
Dorothy.

' And do not let any one know you have such
a thing,' he said, ' or that there is a key in your
ring.'

' I will try not, my lord.'

The breakfast bell rang.

* If you will come again after supper,' he



Dorothy s Initiation. 249

said, as he pulled off his linen frock, ' I will
show you my fire-engine at work, and tell you
all that is needful to the understanding thereof ;
— only you must not publish it to the world,'
he added, ' for I mean to make much gain by
my invention.'

Dorothy promised, and they parted — lord
Herbert for the marquis's parlour, Dorothy for
the housekeeper's room, and Caspar for the
third table in the great hall.

After breakfast Dorothy practised with her
plum until she could manage it with as much
readiness as ease. She found that it was made
of steel, and that the bolts it threw out upon
the slightest pressure were so rounded and
polished that they could not hurt, while nothing
but the key would reduce them again within
their former sheath.
