These and all the other things belonging to him were presented for inspection, one by one, to the horse, who arched his neck, and put forward his ears, and eyed them at first, but smelt them all over, and seemed to feel more easy in his mind.

Had theorists seen the white faced dull eyed children that I have seen, where stoves are used, and felt the head aches which I have felt, they would soon banish them from every school. 7.

He was a small, dark-brown, one-eyed man, with a clear, strong, high-pitched voice, a leader of singing, a maker of songs, a man who could improvise at the moment lines to fit the occasion.

THE CHRISTMAS SILENCE MARGARET DELAND Hushed are the pigeons cooing low On dusty rafters of the loft; And mild-eyed oxen, breathing soft, Sleep on the fragrant hay below.

About the manger oxen lay, Bending a wide-eyed gaze Upon the little new-born Babe, Half worship, half amaze.

In the meantime a number of prancing, kicking, savage-eyed horses were brought into the arena and to these the master of ceremonies now turned his attention.

John Woodbury, vast, blond, grey-eyed, had given him few of his physical traits.

At one time, his mind was fixed on Mexico,not with the licentious dreams that excited the ragged Condottieri who followed the fated footsteps of the "gray-eyed man of Destiny," in the wild hope of plunder and power,nor with the vague reverie in which fanatical theorists construct impossible Utopias on the absurd framework of Icarias or Phalansteries.

Squeers eyed his companion slily at the conclusion of this little dialogue, and finding that he had grown thoughtful and appeared in nowise disposed to volunteer any observations, contented himself with lashing the pony until they reached their journey's end.

Ef I don' vote, I kin keep my job, can't I, suh?" The major eyed Jerry with an air of supreme disgust.

Possibly some of the cautious young noblemen would talk with Kalora, and, finding her bright-eyed, witty, ready in conversation and with enthusiasm for big and masculine undertakings, be attracted to her.

"I shall wear a robe the size of an Arabian tent, and I shall surround myself with soft pillows, and I shall wheeze when I breathe andwho knows?perhaps some dark-eyed young man worth a million piasters will be deceived, and will come to you to-morrow, and buy mebuy me at so much a pound." And she shrieked with laughter.

I always mistrust those wall-eyed saints.

What? has my wall-eyed Saint shown you his temper? Isen.

The one-eyed Moor literally smiled upon it.

" "There are times when the lion is driven to prey upon dogs, my dear son," interposed the mild-eyed, benevolent-looking Araba pensive smile on his venerable face.

Straightway, unseen by any, as all eyes were on the grey-eyed youth and his assailant, Moussa Isa cast loose the toni that nestled beneath the stern of the larger boat.

The one-eyed man, disturbed by the cry, stirred, threw his arms abroad, stretched, and put his foot on the mouth of a neighbour lying head-to-foot beside him.

The boat moved through the water and the one-eyed gentleman, arising and treading upon the out-lying tracts of the sleepers, stumbled to the rudder, which was tied with coconut-fibre to an upright stake.

The one-eyed person looked more disappointed than pleased, and observed to the Leading Gentleman: "We cannot live to Aden, though the wind hold.

"Then let us eat forthwith," said the one-eyed man, and he fairly beamed upon Moussa Isa, doubtless with the said light of which his body was full, in consequence of his singleness of vision.

Suddenly the one-eyed individual at the rudder screamed aloud, and disturbed the Leading Gentleman's earnest endeavour to prevent waste.

Not from sensibility did the one-eyed scream, nor on account of his growing conviction that the Leading Gentleman was getting more than his share, but because, as all realized upon looking up, a great ship was bearing down upon them from the West.

Then he gave the little brown-eyed boy who clings to his mother's skirt in one of the tableaux five pfennigs to see him clap his hands twice and bob his yellow head, which is the way Tyrolese children express their thanks.

He slapped the gentle-eyed Ramon on the shoulder.

but what a thought is this? I strangle, in the sudden thrall Of this sharp pang of agony, Oh, hold me, Tarfe, lest I fall.

" "I have not lied," the Moor replied, and he bowed his haughty head Before the King whose wrath might fling his life among the dead.

"I would not deign with falsehood's stain my lineage to betray; Tho' for the truth my life, in sooth, should be the price I pay.

I am son and squire of a Moorish sire, who with the Christians strove, And the captive dame of Christian name was his fair wedded love;

" "I give you grace for your open face, and the courteous words you use.

Oh, what pangs I felt For her whose profile was so pure!

For them I die.

I had walked I know not how long when I came out suddenly upon the road which wound along the bank and finally dipped to the ferry, and here I sat down upon a log to think.

Let me say here that I believe this purblind policy of delaying the expedition instead of freely aiding it had much to do with the result.

he cried, "I thought I had chanced upon a meeting of our Philadelphia friends,they of the broad hats and sober coats,and yet I had never before known them to go to war.

I have no wish that you should sacrifice your lives so uselessly by remaining here with me.

I cried, "I cannot hold them long.

I cried, "I cannot hold them long.

He listened without a word till I had finished.

I am sure they mean to shoot me."

I knew then that something had happened, and when I heard you speak, I told myself you were not to blame for it.
