Clive’s amusements, studies, or occupations, such as they were, filled his day pretty completely, and caused the young gentleman’s time to pass rapidly and pleasantly, his father, it must be owned, had no such resources, and the good Colonel’s idleness hung heavily upon him. He submitted very kindly² to this infliction³, however, as he would have done to any other for Clive’s sake; and though he may have wished himself back with his regiment⁴ again, and engaged in the pursuits in which his life had been spent, he chose to consider these desires as very selfish and blameable on his part, and sacrificed them resolutely⁵ for his son’s welfare. The young fellow, I dare say, gave his parent no more credit for his long self-denial, than many other children award to theirs. We take such life-offerings as our due commonly. The old French satirist⁶ avers⁷ that, in a love affair, there is usually one person who loves, and the other, qui se laisse aimer; it is only in later days, perhaps, when the treasures of love are spent, and the kind hand cold which ministered them, that we remember how tender it was; how soft to soothe⁸; how eager to shield; how ready to support and caress⁹. The ears may no longer hear, which would have received our words of thanks so delightedly. Let us hope those fruits of love, though tardy¹⁰, are yet not all too late; and though we bring our tribute of reverence¹¹ and gratitude12
