" 'Tis not to make me jealous, To say my wife is fair, feeds well, loves company, Is free of speech, sings, plays, and dances well; Where virtue is, these are more virtuous; Nor from my own weak merits will I draw The smallest fear, or doubt of her revolt." Picturesque and Mechanical Theatre. Filtrating and purifying Vases. English Jacobins. A Farewell. Messagerie. Mal Maison. Forest of Evreux.

While he was speculating as to whether this was probable, smoke began filtrating through the tops of the pines, behind the couple. A fire had been started, though the hour of day was one when the party naturally would have been in motion. The question remained as to whether the horsemen intended to stay where they were until the morrow or would soon resume their journey.

I have frequently alluded to a branch of physical geography, the importance of which is but recently adequately recognized the subterranean waters of the earth considered as stationary reservoirs, as flowing currents, and as filtrating fluids. Rivers of considerable volume pour into some of these caves and can be traced underground to their exit.

An invention has lately made its appearance in Paris, which is as full of utility as it is of genius. A house has been lately opened for the sale of filtrating and purifying vases, to which the ingenious constructor has given the most elegant etruscan shapes.

As he stood with his arms folded, his blanket wrapped around him, his long black hair streaming over his shoulders, and the mingling of the paint on his crown and over his face, and his midnight eyes fixed upon them, it was hard indeed to conjecture the thoughts filtrating through his brain. But there is a language in which the human heart can speak that of emotion.

Others cleaned it by filtrating, but it went through so slowly that they could ill endure to wait so long, and were loath to lose so much precious liquid. Some licked the water like dogs with their tongues from the decks, sides, rails, and masts of the ship.

Upon these ashes water is poured, which, filtrating through the hole in the bottom of the vessel, carries with it the potass contained in the ashes, and forms a very strong lye of the colour of strong beer: this lye they call sai-gee, ash-water. It is allowed to remain in this state for four days, during which it is stirred once or twice each day.
