I take up one or another, just as the bee of the moment buzzes in my bonnet-lug; and do you, sans ceremonie, make what use you choose of the productions. Adieu! etc. 26th January 1793. I approve greatly, my dear Sir, of your plans. Dr. Beattie's essay will of itself be a treasure.
The fresh grass is loaded with dew, every bead of which sparkles in the light of the brilliant sun. A big, yellow-shouldered bee comes booming through the open window, and buzzes up and down my room, and threatens my shrinking ears, and then dives through the window again; and his form recedes and his hum dies away, as if it were the note of a reed-stop in the "swell" of a church organ.

Still he could not forego the company of his sisters-in-law, especially as the eldest one was beautiful. Her honey was no less than her gall, and Nabendu's mind tasted at once the sweetness of the one and the bitterness of the other. The butterfly, with its bruised wings, buzzes round the flower in blind fury, unable to depart.

Will you believe that it is just the tiny plume which waves on the head of every little gnat that buzzes round you on a Summer's evening?" I uttered exclamation after exclamation of delight.

'He's been dancing pretty constant attendance, hasn't he? 'Ra-ther. He says if I don't write him every day after he buzzes back, he'll stick his head over the parapet and spoil a Hun bullet. 'Those things come easily to Horace. 'Oh, do they? I notice he doesn't go to you to say them. 'No, said Elise with a smile, 'that is so. Think of the thrills I miss. 'Now don't get sarcastic.
"Whatever have you been putterin' about so long?" queried Ellen petulantly. "I was clearing up." "That's good. I guess the place needed it," sighed her aunt. "I warn't half through straightenin' things in the kitchen. I thought I heard you talkin'." "Heard me?" "Probably 'twas a notion. My head kinder buzzes."
With his telephone receivers the operator can hear the passage of the waves as they are brought to him by his aerial and the dots and dashes sound as buzzes of greater or less length. Out of the confusion of currents passing through the air he can select the messages he wishes to read by sound. You may wonder how one wireless operator gets into communication with another.
