But the younger daughter of IVInemosyne, the rosy goddess of gaiety, was quickly at hand, and took the suffering boy into her arms, and tried to comfort him with laughter and song, and gave him for playthings the mask of comedy and the fool's bells, and soothed him with kisses; and with her kisses bestowed upon him all her levity, all her thoughtless giddiness, all her witty coquettish arts. Ever after, there was perpetual contradiction between the thoughts of Sterne's heart and the words, of his lips. Often when his heart is moved by tragic feeling, and he seeks to express the deep bleeding anguish of his soul, lo ! even to his own amazement, from his lips flow smiling delightsome words. FREEDOM. If freedom, which God forbid ! were ever to disappear from the whole earth, a German dreamer would discover her again in his dreams.
