"He won't give it," booms Ryabov. The windows of the furthest huts, the starling cote on the tavern, the tops of the poplars, and the cross on the church are all gleaming with a bright golden flame. Now they can see only half of the sun, which, as it goes to its night's rest, is winking, shedding a crimson light, and seems laughing gleefully.
I want you to push matters as rapidly as possible, and to do all you can to put two handsome divisions of your own corps at Cairo, ready to embark up the Tennessee River by the 20th or 30th of April at the very furthest. I wish it could be done quicker; but the promise of those thirty-days furloughs in the States of enlistment, though politic, is very unmilitary.
'Silence again: only the questing birds call from the olive-woods. Panting, the priest moves onward, racked with sick tremors, prescient of doom. 'But hark! a cry! and yet another answering a dark form bursting from the grove a fierce locked struggle under the sacred tree. The boy crawls to the furthest end of the branch, his eyes starting from his head.
Such art would have been in itself a good; but would this child then have been, as now, about her Father's business, which, in ministering to one of his little ones, she is as surely as the archangel who suspends new systems of worlds in the furthest void?

There was no crowding anywhere, least of all in the central halls of the temple itself; indeed, in the great vestibule crowned with a dome which formed the entrance, in the vast hall next to it, and in the magnificent hypostyle with a semicircular niche on the furthest side in which stood the far-famed image of the god, there were only scattered groups of men, who looked like dwarfs as the eye compared them with the endless rows of huge columns.
"That is all; but its history contains the histories of all the others in fact, the whole history of early England." Sir Nathaniel, seeing the expectant look on Adam's face, went on: "The history of the Castle has no beginning so far as we know. The furthest records or surmises or inferences simply accept it as existing.
"I shall be here again this afternoon or to-morrow at the furthest; but remember that before you leave this cell you must give me the full details of the conspiracy against young Massetti!" "I shall remember it, Signor Count; have no fear of that! When I have spoken old Solara must look out for himself!" "What do you mean by that?" asked Monte-Cristo, sharply.
From that day forth the name of the brave Hollander was like the sound of a trumpet to the army. "Egmont and Saint Quentin" rang through every mouth to the furthest extremity of Philip's realms. A deadly blow was struck to the very heart of France. The fruits of all the victories of Francis and Henry withered.
