"Then come the question," continued the cowman, throwing out his broad hand as if indicating the kernel of the matter, "of gittin' such a man, and while we was talkin' it over you called old Tex down so good and proper that there wasn't any doubt in my mind providin' you want the job, of course."
The pulp is divided into a lot of quarters each one enclosed in a very thin skin. It looks like snow-white Jelly and in fact melts in the mouth at once, leaving only a little kernel. The flavour is sweet and exceedingly pleasant.
In 1497 Hieronymus, then in Cesena, composed a dialogue on Savonarola and his "heresy concerning the power of the Pope." The kernel of the whole thing was the fundamental doctrine of the infallibilists; namely, that only those who blindly obey the Pope are good Christians.
Exocarpus latifolius is so different from E. cupressiformis, in its foliage and aspect, that I did not suspect their near relation, until I found blossom and fruit: the ripe kernel as well as its yellow succulent leaf-stalk have a very agreeable taste; a leguminous shrub, about five or six feet high, with purple blossoms gathered into terminal oblong heads; this would be an ornament to our gardens.
She was one of those natures to whom it is difficult to come out of their shell, so as to reveal the kernel within; but he felt that there was something that was growing for him within that reserved nature, and he was not impatient. One evening he had as usual accompanied her to the door, and they stood there bidding one another good night.
This fretful, childish, exacting old man that pottered about the house all day was but the shell that had held the kernel the casket that had held the jewel. But because of what it had held, Jane guarded it tenderly, laying at its feet her life as a willing sacrifice. There had been four children: Edgar, the eldest; Jane, Mary, and Fred.
To the last its kernel was French, but, as the empire expanded and other peoples were brought into a dependent or allied position, it came to include regiments or companies of Poles, Germans, Italians, Dutch, Spaniards, and Danes.
It's us!" cried Sweetclover, and as she spoke Peggs came and put the parasol over them and the storm arose that carried them away toward the sky. Then the cloud disappeared, and the vision was gone. "It's the strangest thing I ever saw," and Kernel Cob rubbed his eyes and pinched himself, but he had to admit that he had not been asleep and dreamed it.
And through some strange, perhaps accidental, conjunction of circumstances, everything that was essential, of interest and of value to him, everything in which he was sincere and did not deceive himself, everything that made the kernel of his life, was hidden from other people; and all that was false in him, the sheath in which he hid himself to conceal the truth such, for instance, as his work in the bank, his discussions at the club, his "lower race," his presence with his wife at anniversary festivities all that was open.
We are told that all these sacerdotal allusions in it are only putting pure spiritual truth in the guise of the existing stage of religious development the husk, not the kernel. It seems to me much rather that the Old Testament ceremonial Temple, priesthood, sacrifice was established for this along with other purposes, to be a shadow of things to come.
