Although Racksole had now been twice worsted in a contest of wits within the precincts of the Grand Babylon, once by Rocco and once by Jules, he could not fairly blame himself for the present miscarriage of his plans - a miscarriage due to the meddlesomeness of an extraneous person, combined with pure ill-fortune.

Keith went, not home, but to his club; and in the room devoted to the reception of guests, empty at this hour, he sat down and read the report of the trial. The fools had made out a case that looked black enough. And for a long time, on the thick soft carpet which let out no sound of footfall, he paced up and down, thinking.

Had you received my letters, you would have been by this time at Naples: but we must now take things where they are.英文原著 · 《Letters to His Son, 1749》
"There is nothing that honor more strongly recommends to the nobility, than to serve their Prince in a military capacity.
