In Melcombe Regis at the corner of Edmund and Maiden Streets may be seen, still embedded in the wall high above the pavement, a cannon ball shot at the unfortunate town during the Civil War, in which unhappy period much damage was done, the contending parties successively occupying the wretched port to the great discomfort of the burgesses.
M. Regis, the professor, said so to the class. He was enthusiastic about it, and greatly surprised. Belle, who had been always first in this kind of composition, was far behind Jacqueline, and was so greatly annoyed at her defeat that she would not speak to her for a week.
Beyond this the little river Lym flows into the sea from among grand yet broken crags mantled with woods, and in a deep valley at the foot of the hills is the romantic town of Lyme Regis, with a pleasant beach and good bathing, the force of the waves being broken by a pier called the Cobb, frequently washed away and as often restored, sometimes at great cost.
Regis, who are embraced in its provision, do hereby assent to every part of the said treaty, and approve the same.

On the other hand, the fastest of the vessels were sent out farther from the shore, and the ship was expected to support them.
He had reached the other shore. Leaving Chesil, he had gained terra firma. The bridge which now unites Sandford Castle with Smallmouth Sands did not then exist. It is probable that in his intelligent groping he had reascended as far as Wyke Regis, where there was then a tongue of sand, a natural road crossing East Fleet.
"Does France come to St. Regis?" he retorted with an impatient question. "What is France, father?" "A country." "Shall we ever go there to hunt?" "Shall we ever go the other side of the sunrise to hunt? France is the other side of the sunrise. Talk to the squaws."

Linklater; "but it would be a shame to us, who are his most excellent Majesty's countrymen, not in some sort to have cherished those arts wherewith he is so deeply embued Regis ad exemplar, Master Kilderkin, totus componitur orbis which is as much as to say, as the king quotes the cook learns.
