mausoleum larjra enough to empha

"Nay, cherub, do not freight thy

will do for me."
"Marry, 'twill not. for in this pres

woo the sons of wealth to start a mau
soleum fund for thee."
"Good friend! Sweet friend! An'
thou would'st please thy boy and make
him conscious of the charity that would
uproar to him a costly pile, woo thorn
whilst I and my approval live, for pile
of shekels roared to us in llfo is worth
