We took up our guns to show that we were about to follow; and on this he began to jump, and frisk about, and bark, to exhibit his satisfaction, and then he stopped and went on a little, and then stopped again to see that we were following. In great hopes that he was leading us to our friends, we went on as fast as we could walk.
Only, my beloved," she continued, hesitating and with downcast eyes, "only one thing is needful to enable me to flee with you." "What is that, my beloved, tell me?" "Frederick, I can only follow my husband, only go with you as your wife." "Yes, you sweet, lovely girl, you can only follow me as your husband.
The dispensations of providence and of grace are sometimes mysterious to the human eye, and we feel disposed to inquire into the reasons why so few were touched by divine influences, and bidden to follow Christ during his incarnation?
Harold got that woman over here afore he knew where the scent was going, but he can't stop her now. Beth found it all out to-day, too."

The Emperor still demanded his carriage, and bade Belliard turn with the cavalry and follow him.
Being a boy, you see, he couldn't think of one, so he said he didn't think there were any. "Yes, there are," said Isabel, "heaps of them, only I can't think of one. Oh, I know, follow my leader, walking, not running, and of course not on the grass. I'll be leader." So off they started, and great fun it was.
