"We shall not serve tea until four o'clock," she said, coldly. "That's my hour for tea just my hour," he said, blithely.

Then spake Angel the king, Scotland's darling: "Lord, say us thy dream, for prosperity is given to us" "Blithely," quoth the king, "to bliss may it turn! Where I lay in slumber, and I gan for to sleep, methought that in the welkin came a marvellous beast, eastward in the sky, and loathsome to the sight; with lightning and with storm sternly he advanced; there is in no land any bear so loathly.

He set off blithely down the river in the morning, after the several necessary drinks of whiskey.

There was nobility and love of virtue, cheek by jowl with beastliness, nor was it always easy to discover which was which; but the birds sang blithely in the cages in the portico, where the long seat was on which philosophers discoursed to any one who cared to listen.

Ishmael mounted and rode off, calling only at the hotel to say good- by to the judge and renew his promise of a punctual return. Then he galloped blithely away; crossed the beautiful Anacostia, by the Navy Yard bridge; and gayly took the road to the old St. Mary's. Gayly? Yes, gayly, notwithstanding all.
