Jove's daughter Venus answered, "Juno, august queen of goddesses, daughter of mighty Saturn, say what you want, and I will do it for you at once, if I can, and if it can be done at all." Then Juno told her a lying tale and said, "I want you to endow me with some of those fascinating charms, the spells of which bring all things mortal and immortal to your feet.
P. Women can tell you everything about everything. Jupiter's marriage with Juno not excepted. G. Look, Praxinoe, what a squeeze at the palace gates! P. Tremendous! Take hold of me, Gorgo, and you, Eunoe, take hold of Eutychis! tight hold, or you'll be lost. Here we go in all together. Hold tight to us, Eunoe. Oh, dear! Oh, dear! Oh, dear! Gorgo, there's my scarf torn right in two.
About noon they passed an English brig that had been through the same struggle as the Juno was now engaged upon, whose signals of distress they had already occasionally heard faintly upon the wind, and which now seemed on the point of foundering.
A few mornings afterwards, Juno came in before breakfast with six eggs in her apron, which she had found in the hen-house. "Look, Missy Seagrave fowls lay eggs soon have plenty plenty for Master William make him well again and plenty for chickens by and by." "You haven't taken them all out of the nests, Juno; have you?" "No; leave one in each nest for hen to see."
A colossal head of Juno, I believe, is considered the greatest treasure of the collection, but I did not myself feel it to be so, nor indeed did I receive any strong impression of its excellence.

For, seeing that she died not by nature, nor yet by the hand of man, but before her time and of her own madness, Queen Proserpine had not shred the ringlet from her head which she shreds from them that die.
Besides that, I do not imagine that Miss Lennox can in any way add to my happiness, brought up as she has been among the woods and hills, you know." "Yes, I have been there to her home, I mean," Mark rejoined, and Juno continued: "Only for a moment, though. You should have stayed, like Will, to appreciate it fully.
Had Mrs. Cameron supposed that Helen had already seen it, she would have returned it at once; but of this she had her doubts, after learning that "Miss Lennox did not go upstairs at all." Juno, then, must have been the delinquent; and though the mother shrank from the act as unladylike, if nothing more, she resolved to keep the letter till some inquiry was made for it at least.
He then showed Juno how to fill up the ends of the first tent with the canvas and sails he had brought on shore, so as to inclose it all round; Juno took the needle and twine, and worked very well. Ready, satisfied that she would be able to get on without them, now said: "Mr. Seagrave, we have but two hours more daylight, and it is right that Mrs.
We knew that the chiefs would at that moment be seated in the admiral's cabin, so, filling upon the cutter, we bore away and ran down under the lee of the "Juno," whose deck we gained just as the captains' gigs were shoving off from the "Victory's" accommodation-ladder. Ten minutes afterwards Captain Hood came up the side, and immediately gave orders for all hands to come aft.
