Not illustrated. 1920 edition. Excerpt: ... be. We turned away. It was no place for men. The General Cipriano, who always wished everything to be done at once, fumed like a soldier accustomed to say to this one "Come," and if this one did not, why--he heard about it. But the White Pope concerned himself with higher matters. He had spied Zini, and called him up for judgment. "Did I not tell you," he said, with his usual quiet, only with something of the tenderness left out, "to abide in your own country, and there to deliver the teaching.
