"Why cumbereth he the ground?" Printed bookes he contemnes, as a novelty of this latter age; but a manuscript he pores on everlastingly; especially if the cover be all moth-eaten, and the dust make a parenthesis betweene every syllable. Mico-Cosmographie, 1638.

It is a disorder very prevalent in this county." "My lord!" said the squire, rather puzzled; and then, observing that Mauleverer did not continue, he thought it expedient to start another subject. "Our friend is disaffected!" thought the lord-lieutenant, imagining that the last opprobrious term was applied to the respectable personages specified in the parenthesis. Brandon's approbation.

With an air of assumed anger he said to the Sheriff: "Of course; every guest has to do it."

Show Low's chaps were conspicuously new, and his movements were heralded by the creaking of unsoftened leather.
