I don't believe a word of it cried the Master Builder, with some
heat of manner. "It is just an old scare, the like of which I have
heard a hundred times ere now. Some poor wretch dies of the
sweating sickness, or, at worst, of the spotted fever, and in a
moment all men's mouths are full of the plague I don't believe a
word of it " "Heaven send you may be right, good friend," quoth
Rachel Harmer, as she sat beside her spinning wheel, and spoke to
the accompaniment of its pleasant hum. "And yet, methinks, the vice
and profligacy of this great city, and the lewdness and wanton
wickedness of the Court, are enough to draw down upon us the
judgments of Almighty God. The sin and the shame of it must be
rising up before Him day and night." The Master Builder moved a
little uneasily in his seat. For his own part he thought no great
harm of the roistering, gaming, and gallantries of the Court
dandies. He knew that the times were very good for him. Fine ladies
were for ever sending for him to alter some house or some room.
