Of one for the larger half travelled quickly

his attempts at persuasion: from persuad-

we were all of us as full of wine we

of the wonderful merits of the Elphberg

At last the king set down his glass and
leaned back in his chair.

Far be 1t from me to contradict the
king" said I.
Indeed. his remark was most absolutely
true-so far as 1t went.
While I yet spoke Josef came and set
before the king marvellous old wicker
covered fiagon. 1t had lain so long in some
arkened cellar that it seemed to/blink in
the candlelight.

me set this wine before the king when the
king was weary of all other wines. and

king. "Out with the cork, Josef. Hang
him! Did he think I'd finch from his

The bottle was opened and Josef filled
the kings glass. The king tasted it. Then.
with a solemnity born of the hour and his
own condition. he looked round on u.s.

my honorD-everything is yours. to the

knave, my brother. Black Michael"
And the king seized the bottle and turned
II over his mouth, and drained 1t and

arms on the table
And we drank pleasant dreams to his

evening. Perhaps 1t is enough.
