It is probable that when the Emperor attains his majority the Seventh l)rince may be raised to the oti1tm cum clignitate of T'ai Shang Huang-ti (" Emperor above the ElIlperor "), in ,vhich he would hold precisely the same position quoad his son as an Empress-Dovvager towards the reigning ll10narch. But, as matters stand at present, it is impos- THE FIFTH PRINCE. 51 sible for him to see his son except in private and in an informal manner. J to his own child-which is a sufficiently horrifying idea to a Chinese-or the Emperor would have to k'o-t'ou to one of his o,vn subjects -which would be an equal outrage on propriety.
Between the state of things ,vhich then existed and that of the early ages. Here he made a mistake; for Shih Huang Ti plumed himself, above all, upon his character as an innovator and an original, and nothing seems to have exasperated him so much as being continually pestered about antiquity. On the present occasion, breathing the incense of flattery and surrounded by a myriad realisations of his triumphs, he found it impossible to put up ,vith such remon~trances, and, placing a strong restraint upon his rage, he interrupted the would-be Nathan, and told him not to waste his breath.

Th~ee hundred palaces were built in the city of Hsien-yang itself, and four hundred nlore outside, a ponderous monolith being erected on the shores of the Eastern Sea to serve as one entrance to the gigantic labyrinth. Seventy thousand families were told off to live in the palaces when ready, farmers and bonzes being the most numerous, all of whom were instructed to prosecute the duties of their respective callings with assiduity. As the time had not yet arrived for the Emperor to receive the rewards of his achievements in Heaven itself, he anticipated that epoch by tl'ansforming that part of Earth honoured by his more irnmediate presence into a terrestrial Heaven in miniature.
