As he talked alongsoftlypleasantlyflowinglyhe seemed to drift away imperceptibly out of this world and timeand into some remote era and old forgotten country and so he gradually wove such a spell about me that I seemed to move among the specters and shadows and dust and mold of a gray antiquityholding speech with a relic of it! Exactly as I would speak of my nearest personal friends or enemiesor my most familiar neighborshe spoke of Sir BedivereSir Bors de GanisSir Launcelot of the LakeSir Galahadand all the other great names of the Table Round - and how oldoldunspeakably old and faded and dry and musty and ancient he came to look as he went on! Presently he turned to me and saidjust as one might speak of the weatheror any other common matter. We fell togetheras modest people willin the tail of the herd that was being shown throughand he at once began to say things which interested me. He attracted me by three things: his candid simplicityhis marvelous familiarity with ancient armorand the restfulness of his company - for he did all the talking. IT was in Warwick Castle that I came across the curious stranger whom I am going to talk about. It isof coursea thing which ought to be settledand I am not going to have anything particular to do next winter anyway. I meanuntil the author of this book encountered the Pompadourand Lady Castlemaineand some other executive heads of that kind these were found so difficult to work into the schemethat it was judged better to take the other tack in this book (which must be issued this fall)and then go into training and settle the question in another book. That the executive head of a nation should be a person of lofty character and extraordinary abilitywas manifest and indisputable that none but the Deity could select that head unerringlywas also manifest and indisputable that the Deity ought to make that selectionthenwas likewise manifest and indisputable consequentlythat He does make itas claimedwas an unavoidable deduction. The question as to whether there is such a thing as divine right of kings is not settled in this book. One is quite justified in inferring that whatever one of these laws or customs was lacking in that remote timeits place was competently filled by a worse one. It is not pretended that these laws and customs existed in England in the sixth century noit is only pretended that inasmuch as they existed in the English and other civilizations of far later timesit is safe to consider that it is no libel upon the sixth century to suppose them to have been in practice in that day also. THE ungentle laws and customs touched upon in this tale are historicaland the episodes which are used to illustrate them are also historical.
