The moment he entered the gate she saw him, ran down the stairs and ran out on the lawn, met him, looked up into his face and lifted up her hands and said, “Papa.” When that father heard the dumb lips of his child speak for the first time and frame that sweet word “Papa,” such a throb of joy passed through his heart that he literally fell to the ground and rolled upon the grass in ecstasy.
That was the whole history, and the pilfering had gone no further only because someone in authority had discovered and put a stop to it. I was so much interested in all this that from time to time I began to pause beside his gate to converse with him.
But only one thought and one intention possessed our hero to relieve himself as quickly as possible of that trust which he had taken up so thoughtlessly, and with such monstrous results to himself and to his victims. He ran to the gate of the garden and began beating and kicking upon it with a vehemence that he could neither master nor control.
We had beautiful weather, and the view was glorious, as we passed the Golden Gate, the entrance to what will one day be the capital of the world, perhaps.

Lady Mountclere knew of one of these, and made use of it to let out her conspirator; Lord Mountclere knew of another, and made use of it to let in himself. His sight is not good, but his ears are unimpaired. A meeting was arranged to take place at the west gate at half-past seven, unless a note handed from the balcony mentioned another time and place.

There was a gate by which the elephants could be driven into this park, only it was a trap, and not a park. And there was no way out of it. The fence ran all about it, except this one hole. And through that hole the elephants were being driven. "Go back!
Symphorien, where Joyce stayed all winter. And we'll see the Gate of the Giant Scissors, and little Jules who lives there." "I am so glad," said Joyce.
"But he said I wasn't to open the gate, sir." "Did he, my dear?" said Sapt, dismounting. "Then give me the key." The key was in the child's hand. Sapt gave her a crown. "Here's an order from the King. Show it to your father. Orderly, open the gate!" I leapt down. Between us we rolled back the great gate, led our horses out, and closed it again.
He put his hand on her shoulder to help him along, and made no opposition to her accompanying him as far as the gate of his mother's garden, which was nearly a mile from the town, on the further bank of one of the rivers watering the valley-plain in which Glamerton had stood for hundreds of years.
Pausing, John leaned on the gate and looked at the two with a smile. "Ullo, Passon!" said Ipsie, turning her blue eyes up at him with a confidential air "Tum an' tie up my Zozey-Posey! Zozey-Posey's bin naughty, he's dot to be tied up so he tan't move!" "And when he's good again, what then?" said Walden "Will you untie him?" Ipsie stared roundly and meditatively.
