Istol, ever restless and ambitious, had put in practice every art, to
possess himself of the king's favour. As this is the same Digby whom
Count Bussy mentions in his annals, it will be sufficient to say that he
was not at all changed: he knew that love and pleasure had possession of
a master, whom he himself governed, in defiance of the chancellor; thus
he was continually giving entertainments at his house; and luxury and
elegance seemed to rival each other in those nocturnal feasts, which
always lead to other enjoyments. The two Miss Brooks, his relations,

judicially. "I'm in no hurry at all. I'd like to stay a bit longer."
"Then you'd better go to dinner with him again to-night and stay in
