Waked as I used to do betimes, but being Sunday and very cold I lay long, it raining and snowing very hard, which I did never think it would have done any more this year. Up and to church, home to dinner. After dinner in comes Mr.
Talbot come at once? A new San Franciscan was imminent via Mrs. Alexander Groome on Ballinger Hill. The doctor grumbled. "And raining cats and dogs. Why couldn't she wait until tomorrow? We'll probably get stuck in the mud. Damn women and their everlasting babies." She helped him into his overcoat and wished him a pleasant good-night.
Not a drop was to be found. Though we had been travelling in the rain all day and accomplished thirty miles, we were obliged to camp without water at last. There was good feed for the horses, and, as it was still raining, they could not be very greatly in want of water.
"They told me you were up the hill," Charnock said, smiling. "I came in on the last construction train." "But why did you come?" "I suppose you mean Why did I come to bother you again? Well, the explanation will take some time, and it's confoundedly muddy and raining hard. When are you likely to be unoccupied?" Festing tried to control his annoyance.
They passed by this spot, but having plenty of water, as it was raining at the time, did not visit the spring. From Mount Worsnop, Woodhouse, one of the party, sighted the lagoon; but neither he nor any of the party had troubled to see whether it was salt or fresh, or of what extent it was. I have named it after Woodhouse, who first saw it.
"Impossible to avoid it. It was only one." "So Liputin knows?" "Impossible to help it: but Liputin, you know yourself, dare not... By the way, you ought to meet our fellows, that is, the fellows not our fellows, or you'll be finding fault again. Don't disturb yourself, not just now, but sometime. Just now it's raining. I'll let them know, they'll meet together, and we'll go in the evening.
He fancied from the patter on the shingle roof, that it was raining outside. "I wonder if you would let me camp in the barn to-night," he said. The girl's eyes had grown compassionate as she watched him, for there was a suggestive greyness in his face. It was evident to her that he was utterly worn-out. "Go in there," she said, pointing to a door. "You will find some dry clothes. Put them on."
It was the thing that they had said would not do, in Nuremberg, because everybody did it; but now they hailed a fiacre, and ordered it driven to Durer's house, which they found in a remote part of the town near a stretch of the city wall, varied in its picturesqueness by the interposition of a dripping grove; it was raining again by the time they reached it.
When I go camping it rains. It begins to rain when I start and it keeps on raining until I come back. It never fails. I have often thought that drought-sufferers in various parts of the country who seek to attract rain in dry spells make a mistake.
Floy thinks it is very nice all round. Dear, innocent little Floy! Oh! Aunty, it has done raining! The sun is shining so brightly; we are going to the Lake to fish Papa says so you and Papa, and Bell, and Harry, and Emma, and Agnes, and our dog Bruno. Shall I tell you how we tip-toed into the little egg-shell boats?
