Annotated text:
I started to read Hardys exquisite production,
and every muscle of my brain was enthralled
until I came to the end. Just such another must
have been the Monk Arnulphus when he
uncorked his ink. His palette gleamed with a
burnished green as bright as a dragon-flys skin
: his gold-leaf shone like the robe of a queen.
There could be no slightest doubt. I would now
be able to reap the harvest. And Ruth would
have little gleaning. I thought of her mother
and laughed aloud. All women biome like their
mothers. That is their tragedy. No man does.
Thats his. I could not help echoing Jacks
question : is that clever? The Monk Arnulphus,
with a dash of Jim the Penman. How, I
wondered, did I strike him? I knew I should
like to. His was obviously a slow methodical
brain, used to pigeon-holing by type. In that
case, I thought I knew the type : learned in a
macabre way, even distinguished.
