from his fishing, a bright sheen
of sunlight .stole down between

the upturned face, giving it
expression I have tried to

away towards the water rolling by,
and his eyes .tad that steady, far-

pushing baek into the past, and

Caesars wife should be above
suspicion, certainly; but how about
Caesar himself f Oh! that is an-
other matter; he can enjoy the
.society of one or more Cleopatras,
just as he may feel inclined; he
may drive them "out, walk with
them, talk to them, visit them,
pay them as devoted attention as
he pleases, and he need not, and
he does not care whether :suspi-
cion attaches to him or not. ! Wiwi
should he care? He stands as
WfeRf iif the-fettsmes&'icommimity;
society has no frowns for him;
men a*nd women are just as ready
to open their doors to him. So
Csesar sins, and none sit in judg-
ment on him, evew though Jp
patra, in all her gorgeous beauty,
sits by his side. ;
The case is different with Cae-
sar's wife; Caesar says that stfer
ought to be above suspicion.
"Why^'Ca&eb^ any than you ?
