“It was a drive of ten miles in a grand and lonely landau through a

country brilliant with gorse and blackthorn. Beneath a great plantation

on the right was the Loe Pool, only separated by a strip of silver sand

from the sea, and described in Tennyson’s ‘Morte d’Arthur.’ Beyond a

wooded hollow with rocks and fir trees the road enters upon the

high-lying plain of the Lizard, wind-stricken, storm-swept, without a

tree, the houses of ugly Lizard-town rising black against a pellucid sky

on the horizon. A scrambling walk down a rugged lane, and then a pathlet

marked by white stones above tremendous precipices brought me to

Kynance Cove--a little disappointing, for it was high water when it

ought to have been low, and a grey colourless day when it ought to have

been brilliant. However, my drawing ‘answered,’ as Aunt Kitty would have

said, and in two hours, as it began to mizzle, I was ready to return.”

“_Tintagel, May 10._--The ‘girling’ of the sea in the old ballad of ‘Sir

Patrick Spens’ just expresses what one hears here. This ‘Wharncliffe

Arms’ is an ideal inn, and very striking is the little glen, now so

primrosy, with the black ruined castle, the cries of the seabirds--

‘And the great sea-waves below,

Pulse of the midnight, beating slow.’”[596]

“_Royal Hotel, Bideford, May 15._--This house has beautiful old rooms

built by John Davy, the first tobacco merchant, with splendid Italian

ceilings: the little _Revenge_ was built in a shipping yard just before

the house, and in a narrow street on the other side the river is a

public-house which is the house of Sir Richard Grenville. I thought the

path above the precipice at Lynton the most beautiful sea-walk I ever

saw. In places it is a sheer wall of rock rising from the waves--

‘Which roar, rock-thwarted, under bellowing caves

Beneath the windy wall.’”

* * * * *

“_Middlewick, Corsham, May 18._--The kind Clutterbucks, with whom I am

staying, took me to Castlecombe yesterday, the home of the Scroopes for

five hundred years, and quite one of the most enchanting places in

England, in its green glen, its clear rushing river, its exquisite

church tower and old market-cross. I saw it last at nine years old, and

was enchanted to find its loveliness all and more than I remembered.

To-day we went to luncheon at Harnish, and I visited once more the

little rectory where I was at school for three and a half most miserable

years. How different a little boy’s path is now! We saw Corsham Court

afterwards, with Cronje’s flag floating over its staircase.”

“_Holmhurst, May 23._--I found a very large party on Saturday at

hospitable Mr. Astor’s, and Cliveden in great beauty, entrancing carpets

of bluebells under the trees. A telegram from the Queen of Sweden took

me to Roehampton on Monday. It was twenty-two years since I had seen the

King, and I thought him even handsomer and more royal-looking than of

old. The Queen is not less fragile, and as full of good thoughts and

words as ever. I had luncheon with the royal pair and their household,

and a long talk with the Queen afterwards, who told me much of my

especial Prince, now Regent in his father’s absence.”

FAREWELL

“Pleasure to our hot grasp

Gives flowers after flowers;

With passionate warmth we grasp

Hand after hand in ours:

Now do we soon perceive how fast our youth is spent.”

--MATTHEW ARNOLD.

“Oh, He has taught us what reply to make,

Or secretly in spirit, or in words,

If there be need, when sorrowing men complain

The fair illusions of their youth depart,

All things are going from them, and to-day

Is emptier of delights than yesterday,

Even as to-morrow will be barer yet:

We have been taught to feel this need not be,

This is not life’s inevitable law;

But that the gladness we are called to know

Is an increasing gladness, that the soil

Of the human heart, tilled rightly, will become

Richer and deeper, fitted to bear fruit

Of an immortal growth from day to day,

Fruit of love, life, and inefficient joy.”--R. C TRENCH.

“Lord, I owe thee a death: let it not be terrible: yet Thy will,

not mine, be done.”--HOOKER.

“When the tapers now burn blue,

And the comforters are few,

And that number more than true,

Sweet Spirit, comfort me!”--HERRICK.

I must close this book. Printers are calling for its last pages. It is

like seeing an old friend go forth into a new world, and wondering if

those who inhabit it will understand him and treat him well. Perhaps no

one will read it except the intimate circle--a large one certainly--who

have loved Hurstmonceaux, Stoke, and little Holmhurst at different

times. But I can never regret having written it, and it has been so

great an enjoyment to me, that perhaps others may like it; for I have

concealed nothing, and Coleridge says, “I could inform the dullest

author how he might write an interesting book. Let him relate the events

of his own life with honesty, not disguising the feelings that

accompanied them.”[597]

Most people will say two volumes would have been enough, but the fact is

I have written chiefly for myself and my relations, and not for the

general public at all. They may read the book if they like, but it was

not intended for them, and, as Walter Scott describes it--

“Most men, when drawn to speak about themselves,

Are moved by little and by little to say more

Than they first dreamt; until at last they blush,

And can but hope to find secret excuse

In the self-knowledge of their auditors.”[598]

Except that I have seen more varieties of people than some do, I believe

there has been nothing unusual in my life. All lives are made up of joys

and sorrows with a little calm, neutral ground connecting them; though,

from physical reasons perhaps, I think I have enjoyed the pleasures and

suffered in the troubles more than most. But from the calm backwater of

my present life at Holmhurst, as I overlook the past, the pleasures seem

to predominate, and I could cordially answer to any one who asked me “Is

life worth living?”--“Yes, to the very dregs.”

Sainte-Beuve says, “Il est donné, de nos jours, à un bien petit nombre,

même parmi les plus délicats et ceux qui les apprécient le mieux, de

recueillir, d’ordonner sa vie selon ses admirations et selon ses goûts,

avec suite, avec noblesse.” And latterly my days have been “avec suite;”

“avec noblesse” is what they ought to have been. In my quiet home, of

which little has been said in these volumes, days succeed each other

unmarked, but on the whole happy, though sometimes very lonely. The

whole time passes very quickly, yet it is, as I remember the Grand

Duchess Stephanie of Baden wrote to my aunt Mrs. Stanley--“In youth the

years are long, the moments short, but in age the moments are long, the

years short.” Really I have been alone here for thirty years, twelve in

which my dearest Lea was still presiding over the lower regions of the

house, and eighteen in absolute solitude. It is the winter evenings,

after the early twilight has set in, which are the longest. Then there

are often no voices but those of the past:--

“Time brought me many another friend

That loved me longer;

New love was kind, but in the end

Old love was stronger.

Years come and go, no New Year yet

Hath slain December,

And all that should have cried, Forget!

Cried but--Remember!”

People say, “It is all your own fault that you are solitary; you ought

to have married long ago.” But they know nothing about it; for as long

as my mother lived, and for some time after, I had nothing whatever to

marry upon, and after that I had very little, and I have been constantly

reminded that people of the class in which I have always lived do not

like to marry paupers. Besides, the fact is, that except in one

impossible case perhaps, very long ago, “I have never loved any one

well enough to put myself in a noose for them: it is a noose, you

know.”[599] What I have to regret is that I have no very near relations

who have in the least my own interests and sympathies, though they are

all very kind to me. I have far more in common with many of my younger

friends, “the boys,” who cease to be boys after a few years, and many of

whom, I am sure, turn to Holmhurst as the haven of their lives. But one

feels that there would be this difference between any very congenial

near relations and even the kindest friends: the latter are very glad to

see one, but would be very sorry to see more of one; whilst the former,

if they existed, would take it as a matter of course.

By friends I often feel that I am greatly over-estimated, so many ask my

advice, and act upon what I tell them. It is a responsibility, but I

feel that I am right in urging what I have always found answer in my own

case, and what has greatly added to my happiness. When a wrong,

sometimes a very cruel wrong, is done to one, one must not try at once

to do some good to those who have done it, because that would be to

mortify them; but if one immediately, at once, sets to think of what

one can do for somebody else, it takes out the taste. Then one can very

soon paste down that unpleasant page of life, as if it had never

existed, and all will be as before.

Also, always believe the best of people till the worst is proved, and

meditate not on your miseries, but your blessings.

The greatest of all the blessings I have to be grateful for is, that

though, since my serious illness six years ago, I have never been

entirely without pain, I have, notwithstanding this, good health and a

feeling of youth--just the same feeling I had forty years ago. I suppose

there will be many who will be surprised to see in these pages how old I

am; I am unspeakably surprised at it myself. I have to be perpetually

reminding myself of my years, that I am so much nearer the close than

the outset of life. I feel so young still, that I can hardly help making

plans for quite the far-distant future, schemes of work and of travel,

and I hope sometimes of usefulness, which of course can never be

realised. I have very good spirits, and I feel that I should be

inexcusable if I were not happy when I remember the contrast of my

present life to my oppressed boyhood, or to the terrible trial of the

time when every thought was occupied by such tangled perplexities as

those of the Roman Catholic conspiracy.

My next greatest blessing is my home, so infinitely, so exquisitely

suited to my needs, and indeed to all my wishes. As I write this, and

look from my window across the tiny terrace with its brilliant flowers

to the oakwoods, golden in the autumn sunset, and the blue sea beyond,

with the craggy mass of Hastings Castle rising up against it, I feel

that there are few places more lovely than Holmhurst. Then the walks in

the grounds offer a constant variety of wood and rock, flowers and

water, and the distant view changes constantly, and composes into a

hundred pictures. And in the little circle of this pleasant home love

assuredly reigns supreme. I look upon my servants as my best and truest

friends; their rooms, in their way, are as pretty and comfortable as my

own, and I believe that they have a real pleasure in serving me. We

unite together in looking after our less fortunate friends, who come in

batches, for a month each set, to the little Hospice in the grounds. I

could not ask my servants to do this, but they are delighted to help me

thus, as in everything. When one of our little household community, as

has happened four times now, passes, in an honoured and cherished old

age, from amongst us, we all mourn together, watch by the deathbed, and

follow the flower-laden coffin to the grave.

My local affections are centred in Holmhurst now. Rome, which I was

formerly even fonder of, is so utterly changed, it has lost its

enchaining power, and, with the places, the familiar faces there have

all passed away. I go there every third year, but not for pleasure, only

because it is necessary for “Walks in Rome,” the one of my books which

pays best.

In the summer I generally have guests at Holmhurst, but even then my

mornings are passed in writing, and several twilight hours besides. In

the evenings there is generally reading aloud, or there are drawings to

be looked at, or if “the boys” are with me there are games. Then the

early months of spring are often spent abroad, and the later in London,

and in the autumn I have the opportunity of far more visits than I like

to pay: so that I have quite sufficient people-seeing to prevent getting

rusty, or at any rate to remind me of my utter insignificance in every

society except my own. However, Reviews are a perfect antidote to all

follies of vainglory. I used to be pained by the most abusive ones,

though I generally learnt something from them. Latterly, however, I have

been more aware of the indescribable incapacity and indolence of the

writers, and have not cared at all. I a little wonder, however, why I

have scarcely ever had a favourable Review. My work cannot always have

been so _terribly_ bad, or it would not have had so wide a

circulation--wider, I think, than has attended any other work of the

kind.

How I wish one knew something, anything, of the hereafter to which the

Old Testament never alludes, and of which the New Testament tells us

nothing satisfactory. Can we really sleep, for millions of years

perhaps, or can we live in another hemisphere, or can we linger here

near people and places we love, incorporeal, invisible? I believe all

the truths of revealed religion, but there is so much that is

unrevealed. Oh! if the disciples, during their three years’ opportunity,

had only asked our Saviour a few more questions--questions so absolutely

essential, to which the answers would have been of such _vital_

importance. For oh! how far more important what our state after death is

than all our life’s work, than everything we have done or said or

written, or what any one has thought of us. I can truly say with Olga de

la Ferronays, “Je crois, j’aime, j’espère, je me repens;” but how

strangely dim is the clearest sight as to the future. “The awful

mysteries of life and nature,” says Whittier, “sometimes almost

overwhelm me. What? Where? Whither? These questions sometimes hold me

breathless. How little, after all, do we know! And the soul’s anchor of

Faith can only grapple fast upon two or three things, and fast and

surest of all upon the Fatherhood of God.”[600]

It is astonishing how little good can be derived from all the religious

teaching which is the form and order of the day, from the endless

monotony of services, from the wearisome sermons, not one of which

remains with me from the thousands upon thousands I have been condemned

to listen to, some few of them excellent, but most of them a farrago of

stilted nonsense. I suppose that there are some types of mind which are

benefited by them: I cannot believe that they were good for me. “Oh,

stop, do stop; you have talked enough,” my whole heart has generally

cried out when I have listened to a preacher--generally a man whom one

would never dream of listening to in ordinary conversation for a quarter

of an hour. It is a terrible penalty to pay for one’s religion to have

weekly to hear it worried and tangled by these incapable and often

arrogant beings. What does really remain with me, and raise my mind

heavenwards with every thought of it, is the gentle teaching of my sweet

mother in my childhood, and the practical lesson of her long life of

love to God and man; the austere, unswerving uprightness and justice

which was the mainspring of life’s action to the dear old nurse who was

spared for forty-eight years to be the blessing of our home, ever one of

those who, as Emerson says, “make the earth wholesome;” the remembrance

of Hugh Pearson, Lady Waterford, and many other holy ones entered into

the Perfect Life, and the certainty whence their peace in life and their

calm in death was derived. Whittier again echoes my own thoughts when he

says, “I regard Christianity as a life rather than a creed; and in

judging my fellow-men, I can use no other standard than that which our

Lord and Master has given us, ‘By their fruits ye shall know them.’ The

only orthodoxy that I am especially interested in is that of life and

practice.”

I know my own great imperfection and unworthiness, and when I turn from

myself to others, I cannot judge them. One cannot know all the secret

guiding wires of action in them. I think perhaps the secret of any

influence I have with boys is, that though I am willing to tell them

what I think best as to the future, I never condemn their past; I am not

called upon to do so. Southey’s lines come back to me:--

“Oh, what are we,

Frail creatures that we are, that we should sit

In judgment man on man! And what were we

If the All-Merciful should mete to us

With the same rigorous measure wherewithal

Sinner to sinner metes!”[601]

When I look at the dates of births and deaths in our family in the

Family Bible, I see that I have already exceeded the age which has been

usually allotted to the Hares. Can it be that, while I still feel so

young, the evening of life is closing in. Perhaps it may not be so,

perhaps long years may still be before me. I hope so; but the lesson

should be the same, for “man can do no better than live in eternity’s

sunrise.”[602]

“La figure de ce monde passe. Sans la possession de l’éternité, sans la

vue religieuse de la vie, ces journées fugitives ne sont qu’un sujet

d’effroi, le bonheur doit être une prière et le malheur aussi. Pense,

aime, agis et souffris en Dieu; c’est la grande science.”[603]

“Seek out with earnest search the things above;

Thence to God’s presence rise on wings of love.

By Truth the veils of earth and sense are riven,

And Glory is the only veil of Heaven.

Seek’st thou by earthly roads to find thy way?

Surprise will seize thy rein and bid thee stay;

Only man’s Guardian has cross’d o’er that sea,

And those whom He has bidden--‘Follow me.’

He who has journeyed on without this Friend,

Worn out, has failed to reach his journey’s end.

Oh, Sàdi, think not man has ever gone

Along the path of Holiness alone,

But only he who treads behind the Chosen One.”[604]

“Then gin I thinke on that which Nature sayd,

Of that same time when no more Change shall be,

But stedfast rest of all things, firmely stayd

Upon the pillours of Eternity,

That is contrayr to Mutabilitie;

For all that moveth doth in Change delight;

But thence-forth all shall rest eternally

With Him that is the God of Sabaoth hight:

O! that great Sabaoth God, grant me that

Sabaoth’s sight.”[605]
