Excerpt from I Will Maintain
The ideals OF M. DE witt here is one subject that we seldom touch upon, said Sir William. And that is one upon which I am curious to hear you speak. John de Witt looked up quickly. Ah, sir, he smiled faintly. You are of a probing disposition - what is this subject? The Prince.
The Prince repeated M. De Witt, and an intent ex pression that might have been trouble came into his full brown eyes. What is there to say of His Highness? He added.
The English Ambassador laughed in the soft and pleasant way he had; he was standing by the long Window, and, as he answered, glanced out at the wych elms and pale sunshine that filled the garden of M. De Witt.
