The long-necked rose-water sprinkler is the most common form, supplemented by betel-nut boxes and receptacles made by Persian artists for the famous attar of roses. Scents and "sweet odours" became fashionable in Europe in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries; articles of clothing were scented, and there was a profusion of scent for the hair and in making the toilet.
The breath and strength of immeasurable antiquity Treasures coming direct from dead hands into mine A pleasant sound of coolness and refreshment Receptacles of death now dedicated to life The Borghese is a forest of Ardennes Profound and important communings A smiling deceiver Of an early-rising habit Hauling in on my slack A miniature cabinet magically made Titanic "If I had a murder on my conscience" None can tell the secret origin of his thoughts A singularly beautiful young woman She actually ripped the man open No leagues of chivalry needed in Rome A resident army Five foot six Corsets and padding She was wounded in the house of her friends.
"Oh, please don't squeeze those tulips into the tight high vases, Aunt Lavinia," she said, going behind that lady and giving her a hug with one arm, while she rescued the tulips with the other hand; for Miss Lavinia, feeling hurried and embarrassed by the quantity of flowers, was jumbling them at random into very unsuitable receptacles.
George was confused by the multiplicity of metal tools and crystal receptacles he alone had four wine-glasses but in the handling of the tools he was saved from shame by remembering the maxim a masterpiece of terse clarity worthy of a class which has given its best brains to the perfecting of the formalities preliminary to deglutition: "Take always from the outside."
When it rained, all possible receptacles were placed on deck and the main sail was spread over the cabin roof to catch the rain. "At length as we came in the neighborhood of Padang, on the 26th of November, 1915, a ship appeared for the first time and looked for our name. But the name had been painted over, because it was the former English name.
Placed on the top of these old-fashioned receptacles were articles familiar to modern use, a fowling-piece here, fishing-rods there, two or three simple flower-vases, a pile of music books, a box of crayons.
Here was a dirk, the edges entirely worn away, and whitened. There were the metal ribs of what seemed to be a case, or a receptacle of some kind. Lying at one side was an ancient type of firearm, long, heavy, and with an immense bore. Another and another were found a regular arsenal, with the scattered remnants of peculiar little copper receptacles with whitish powder in them.
They were receptacles for food, drink, paint, and the like, placed in the grave along with other possessions of the departed in obedience to the demands of an almost universal custom. The material employed in manufacture embraced clay in all grades of refinement, from coarse loamy earths to the refined slips used in surface finish.
In the receptacles thus formed all the barrels of powder, as well as the small arms, ammunition, etc., were packed and stowed away, the whole being covered with earth to the depth of several feet. This was a very needful expedient, for a stray spark might have blown up the vast stores of munitions of war, without which it would have been impossible to carry on future operations against the enemy.
The soul of man, and of every animal, from an implanted tendency to self-propagation, forms itself, clothes itself, and becomes seed, 220; because the soul is a spiritual substance, which is not a subject of extension but of impletion, and from which no part can be taken away, but the whole may be produced without any loss thereof, hence it is that it is as fully present in the smallest receptacles, which are seeds, as in its greatest receptacle, the body, 220.
