THE winning ofhonor, is but the revealing of a man,s virtue and worth, without disadvantage.
The true marshalling of the degrees of sovereignhonor, are these: In the first place are conditores imperiorum, founders of states and commonwealths; such as were Romulus, Cyrus, Caesar, Ottoman, Ismael.
The faces of these young people, especially those who were militarymen, bore that expression of condescending respect for their elders which seems to say to the older generation, "We are prepared to respect andhonor you, but all the same remember that the future belongs to us."
Bekleshev and Theodore Uvarov, who had arrived with him, paused at the doorway to allow him, as the guest ofhonor, to enter first.
He was seated in the place ofhonor between two Alexanders- Bekleshev and Naryshkin- which was a significant allusion to the name of the sovereign.
By his age he should have belonged to the younger men, but by his wealth and connections he belonged to the groups old andhonored guests, and so he went from one group to another.
"I am always curious to see the downfall of yourhonor's enemies, and he was not among the least of them.
"And knowing all that, yourhonor remained here, far from the city, tranquil and inactive."
"And does yourhonor know the four men who undertook to rescue him?"
"And you, mademoiselle; you may be certain I shall inform madame of what is going on in the apartment of one of her ladies ofhonor!"
"Hold your tongue, mademoiselle, and do not uselessly trouble yourself to intercede for unworthy people; that a young maid ofhonor like you should be subjected to a bad example is, certes, a misfortune great enough; but that you should sanction it by your indulgence is what I will not allow."
"A maid ofhonor! a maid ofhonor!" cried the old lady, lifting her hands towards heaven.
