As soon as the spectacles were gone Nathanael recovered his equanimity again; and, bending his thoughts upon Clara, he clearly discerned that the gruesome incubus had proceeded only from himself, as also that Coppola was a right honest mechanician and optician, and far from being Coppelius's dreaded double and ghost And then, besides, none of the glasses which Coppola now placed on the table had anything at all singular about them, at least nothing so weird as the spectacles; so, in order to square accounts with himself, Nathanael now really determined to buy something of the man.

"What name is that?" asked Agatha, looking across at the luckless victim of nomenclature, who seemed to endure his woes with great equanimity. He met her eye, and answered for himself, showing he had been listening to her all the time. "I am called Nathanael it is an old family name Nathanael Locke Harper." "You don't look very like a Nathanael," observed his neighbour, Mrs.

It was an infinite relief to her when following, nay preceding, Nathanael, there appeared his elder brother, with the old pleasant smile and bow. But amidst all his assumed manner, Major Harper took occasion to whisper kindly to Agatha; "My brother made me come I shall do admirably to talk nonsense to the Iansons."

Nathanael paused; Anne's reasoning was from facts unknown to him; but he saw the agony in her face. She continued in a whisper: "Be slow to judge him, if only for his sisters' sakes his dead mother's the honour of the family." "I have thought only too much of all these things." "Then, for his father's sake his father, who is going away to the other world leaving a son unforgiven.

Neither General Howe nor any one within the British lines knew just what the provincial commander had planned, that the moment the redcoats began the attack, General Israel Putnam, on Cobble Hill, between Charlestown and Cambridge, with four thousand men, would leap into boats, cross the Charles, and land on the Common; that General Nathanael Greene with a large force would advance from Roxbury, and together they would grind the British to powder, like corn in a mill.

Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph. And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see. Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!

I seldom meet him without desiring to exclaim as Jesus did at the approach of young Nathanael 'Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no guile! And then he is so industrious and regular," said Fabens warmly. "I am very glad you think and feel as you do. It is truly refreshing to witness such confidence in men.

She looked less old than usual nay, almost beautiful so exquisitely peaceful was the expression of her countenance. Nathanael and his wife hung back, letting Mr. Harper meet her first. She rose and held out both hands to him. "Welcome home again welcome home!" He said nothing, but grasped the hands, and retained them fast.

The foolish girl paused, and laughed, as if she did not like to soliloquise too confidentially, even to a kitten. "Which of them did you like the best last night, Tittens? One was not over civil to you; but Nathanael yes, certainly you and that juvenile are great friends, considering you have met but four evenings. All in one week, too.

The traders replied, "But we will not leave this scoundrel for an instant." "First," said Nathanael, "we must go to the High Priest Annas. Lead him thither!" Selpha said, "We follow thee!" As the band prepared to obey the word of command a trader came up to Judas and said approvingly, "Thou art a man, indeed. Thou knowest how to keep thy word."
