The Ship of Stars

CHAPTER VI
10/15

Honoria, hand me my Bible.

It's all here"-- he tapped the heavy book--"miracles, redemption, justification by faith--I _will_ have faith.

I _will_ believe, every damned word of it!" Sir Harry broke in with a peal of laughter.

Taffy had never heard a laugh so musical.
The old man was adjusting his spectacles; but he took them off and laid them down, his hands shaking with rage.
"You came here to taunt me"-- his voice shook as his hand--"me, an old man, with no son to my house.

You think, because I'm seeking higher things, there's no fight left in us or in the parish.
