Two Eierkopfian lenses, each inscribed .D.E .Q were clipped onto his spectacles; behind them his eyes were open and glazed. No question but he was alive -- a drop of dew ran off the bell and he caught it neatly upon his tongue -- but he either could not or would not hear me, how anxiously soever I begged him to ignore my old advice.
