Excerpt from The Village Comedy, Vol. 2 of 3
Mrs. Biggins feeding her pigeons in front of the Pleiades - so tame that they fly up to her hand - looks picturesque. It was a brilliant morning, and, as one of the Misses Conway remarked to Manly Frowde when pass1ng his gate, it was strange to have just been saying the prayer, Lighten our dark ness. The new vicar being of an undecided temperament, and anxious to please every one, had arranged morning prayer at twelve o'clock, that the school-children might attend without interference with their les sons - though whether it pleased the child ren to have their play-time taken is doubt ful. Then the vicar's mind was perplexed as to whether midday was matins or even.
