[The Celt and Saxon by George Meredith]@TWC D-Link bookThe Celt and Saxon CHAPTER IX 4/25
His reign 's not for ever; he can't enter here.
You're in the stronghold defying him.
And now cigars, boys, pipes; there are the boxes, there are the bowls.
I can't smoke till I have done steaming.
I'll sit awhile silently for the operation. Christendom hasn't such a man as your cousin Con for feeling himself a pig-possessed all the blessed day, acting the part of somebody else, till it takes me a quarter of an hour of my enfranchisement and restoration of my natural man to know myself again.
