He soon came back with a small box, which he gave to Jussuf: it was made of mean wood, and without any ornament. "Here is what thou desirest," said he. And, while he reached to him a small golden key, he added, "Henceforward thou no longer needest a guide.
Francis was so disconcerted by this question that she did not attempt to reply, but looked at him hopelessly. The wily minister saw her confusion and pressed his advantage. "Thou needest not to answer, boy, on the condition that thou tell to me all that passed the first time that you saw Babington." "I cannot do that, sir." "'Twill be the better for thee," warned the secretary.
Seekest thou inspiration? thou needest it not, thou hast it already; and it was never yet found by crossing the sea. What hast thou to do with old Rome, and thou an Englishman? 'Did thy blood never glow at the mention of thy native land? as an artist merely?
Holden looked inquiringly at Faith, whose countenance evinced great distress; then, turning to Armstrong, he said "Thou art not well, James. Perhaps, like me, thou hast passed a disturbed night?" "I have, of late been unable to sleep as well as formerly," said Armstrong. "There is a pain here," he added, touching his forehead, "which keeps me awake." "Thou needest exercise.
Yesterday I gained a son, only to lose him to-day. Rise! I demand no tokens of a love and humility, which thou hast never felt. Go to the priests when thou needest comfort and counsel, and see if they can supply a father's place.

Richard's dark eye shot fire, and he gnawed his lip as he answered, "God hath not given to me the fair shape of my kinsmen." "Thy pardon, dear boy," said Edward, kindly; "yet little needest thou our broad backs and strong sinews, for thou hast a tongue to charm women and a wit to command men."
I offer myself to thee, for thou needest the service of woman: and if thou have carnal connection with me and know me, thy sickness shall be turned from thee and health return to thee; and thou wilt repent thee of the past for having foresworn the company of women during the days that are now no more. In very sooth, I give thee good advice: so incline to my counsel and approach me."
