“I know nothing about that,” said the goatherd; “my palate is sufficient evidence for me. Look where they come and lay their fish upon my embers. The very savour of their cooking tells me I can taste again. It is Jesus, sure enough!”

TRANSCRIBER’S NOTES

The author produced two books titled Historical Vignettes: one in 1910 (T. Fisher Unwin, London), and the other in 1912 (Sidgwick & Jackson, London). Being the later, “2nd Series” has been appended to the title to distinguish it from the former (i.e. “1st Series”).

Minor spelling inconsistencies (e.g. birdseller/bird-seller, etc.) have been preserved.

Alterations to the text:

Abandon the usage of drop-caps.

Add “2nd Series” to the book title. (See above).
