Like lightning I snatched my hand away, threw myself backward and sprang to my feet with an involuntary cry; and as I did so I indistinctly caught sight of a small wriggling object in the long grass that seemed to vanish in a flash. It was a snake, and it had bitten me!
We heard lately that he was bitten to death by an infuriated moose near South Bend, Ind., where he had gone to try to forget scenes of civilisation. With which, Mr. Redruth forsook the face of mankind and became a hermit, as we have seen. "My story," concluded the young man with an Agency, "may lack the literary quality; but what I wanted it to show is that the young lady remained true.
I taught this old watch-dog of a heart to keep guard and bury the bones you tossed him. 'Ignorantly, admit, said she, and could have bitten her tongue for the empty words that provoked: 'Would you have flung him nothing? and caused a lowering of her eyelids and shamed glimpses of recollections. 'I hear you have again been defending me.
Setting her before him, he began his incantations in the usual manner, but made frequent passes over her body, and over the bitten place. A gentle perspiration began to break out on her skin, and in a very short time the Ojah had thrown her into a deep mesmeric sleep. After about an hour she awoke perfectly free from pain.

I have seen Selwyn but twice since he learned where Harrie was found, and then not alone. Both times some one was here and he stayed but a short while.

"I would you were right; but, Francoise, you are a false prophet my last and worst tale is told Belgrade has fallen!" "The will of God be done!" cried the marquise. "Christianity has triumphed, and the unbelieving Moslem has bitten the dust!"
Else he would not have been so reckless of the legs and necks of the coming generations, as to blaze the trail to his shrine over mountains so steep that our pack-mule coming up could easily have bitten off his own tail if he had so minded. Later. This afternoon I must hustle down. I suppose the only way to get down is to roll. Well; anyway I am in a hurry.
Among men, nine out of every ten bitten by rabid dogs escape the terrible effects resulting from this dreadful disorder, without resorting to any applications to prevent it.
Presently the monks came home from some procession, and the convent dogs ran out to meet them, curse the quiens! 'What, did they fall on thee and bite thee, poor soul? 'Worse, worse, dear Bon Bec. Had they bitten me I had earned silver. But the great idiots, being, as I think, puppies, or little better, fell on me where I sat, downed me, and fell a licking my sores among them.
