After dinner, one read aloud to them from the Rule, and again after supper there was reading from the life of some notable Saint or Virgin, that thereby they might find ensample for themselves on their own earthly pilgrimage. For the rest, they tended their herb garden, reared their chickens, which were famous for miles around, and kept strict watch over their haywards and swineherds.

Book excerpt: The Devil in a Nunnery by Francis Oscar Mann According to a German legend, the devil is master of all arts, and certainly he has given sufficient proof of his musical talent. Certain Church Fathers ascribed, not without good reason, the origin of music to Satan. "The Devil," says Mr. Huneker in his diabolical story "The Supreme Sin" (1920), "is the greatest of all musicians," and Rowland Hill long ago admitted the fact that the devil has all the good tunes. Perhaps his greatest composition is the Sonata del Diavolo, which Tartini wrote down in 1713. This diabolical master-piece is the subject of G�rard de Nerval's story La Sonate du Diable (1830). While the devil plays all instruments equally well, he seems to prefer the violin. Satan appears as fiddler in the poem "Der Teufel mit der Geige," which has been ascribed to the Swiss anti-Papist Pamphilus Gengenbach of the sixteenth century. In Leanu's Faust (1836) Mephistopheles takes the violin out of the hands of one of the musicians at a peasant-wedding and plays a diabolical czardas, which fills the hearts of all who hear it with voluptuousness. An opera Un Violon du Diable was played in Paris in 1849. The Devil's Violin, an extravaganza in verse by Benjamin Webster, was performed the same year in London. In his story "Les Tentations ou Eros, Plutus et la Gloire" Baudelaire presents the Demon of Love as holding in his left hand a violin "which without doubt served to sing his pleasures and pains."

Excerpt: ...worked in connection with the young lady may be gathered by a dialogue which occurred coincidently with the conference between the barristers. Miss Minnie was at home in the morning-room upstairs, and a visitor, whose name was Captain Archibald, or "Archie," Franklin, was sitting on a very uncomfortable chair in front of her. Captain Franklin had his hat in his hand, and was fingering it nervously, while it was apparent that his hostess was not entirely at her ease either. "Mamma will be so sorry she was out," she said. "May I give you some tea?" "Er--no thank you, Miss Liddington. I--er--in point of fact I was hoping I might find you alone." "I don't understand, Captain Franklin." "I have come to say good-bye," he stammered. He was a good-looking young fellow of about thirty, and if ever a man adored a girl in this world, it was plain that /e adored the one he was trying to talk to. "I have come to say 'good-bye.' I am going out to India, and--I shan't see you any more, Miss Liddington." "Your regiment is ordered out to India?" The colour had sunk from her face, and she spoke in a kind of gasp. "No, the regiment isn't going. I--I intend to exchange, that's all." "Oh?" she said. "You are tired of England?" "No--not tired. I--I think it better I should go." There was a pause while they both watched the canary that flapped its wings against its cage. She turned, and her eyes met his own. "Miss Liddington, Minnie," he exclaimed, "don't you know w/zy I'm going? Pm, going because--I haven't the least right to say it, and I...
