I am sure you would like the cheerful fusion of this home party: each star is worthy of separate observation for its serenity, brilliancy, or magnitude; but it is as a constellation they claim most regard, linked together by strong attachment, and moving in harmony through their useful course.
The two saw each other frequently, and were linked by that desultory companionship of London life which sometimes indeed ripens into friendship, but as often ends in a sudden quarrel. Such was the end of this acquaintance, and one day some trifling difference having occurred between the friends, a cartel reached Mr. Falconer couched in very haughty though perfectly courteous language.
Why didn't you scare me to death and be done with it?" "Did I scare you, sweetness? Cross my heart, I didn't mean to." "Well, I should say you did!" He linked his arm into hers. "Come on; I'll buy you a drink." She unlinked. "Honest, can't a girl go home from work in this town without one of you fellows getting fresh with her?" "All right, then; I'll buy you a supper.
This object, which every casual word, every heedless glance from another, fixed deeper and deeper in her heart, took a sort of sanctity from the associations with which she linked it her father's memory and his dying breath.
Feeling inferior and groping around in pleasurable associations so inextricably linked to pain it was sometimes bumptious, aggressive, and striving to leave a concept of its superiority onto the other dog's mind. Months passed. She could not think anything in particular about the owl or the dogs let alone anything else.

They looked first at each other, and then into the grim captain's face.
Oh, Rose, what a fickle baby you are. I am ashamed of you!" "Don't!" said Rose again. She linked her hand half timidly in Miss Day's arm. Miss Day was almost a head and shoulders above the little, delicate, fairy-like creature. "I suppose I can't help changing my mind," she said. "I did love Maggie, of course I loved her she fascinated me; but I don't care for her no, I hate her now!"
He heard a senator from the national capital, whose fortunes were linked with the autocrat's, declare that leader as the most maligned figure in American politics, and that he was without a blemish or vice on his private or public life, but, unlike Pontius Pilate, Jason never thought to ask himself what was truth, for, in spite of the mountaineer's Blue-grass allies, the lad had come to believe that there was a State conspiracy to rob his own people of their rights.
Besides, they hadn't the least idea each of the existence of the other; but no matter for that, they were brothers, linked together in many a way. Perhaps you wouldn't have had an idea that their fathers were each occupied in the same business; but such was the case.
However much I might have wished to carry out the order to set up my bivouac on the spot used two days previously by Saint-Geniès, this was impossible, for the ground was littered with more than two hundred bodies in a state of putrefaction, and to this major reason was linked another not less important.
