Smangle; 'this is dry work. Let's rinse our mouths with a drop of burnt sherry; the last-comer shall stand it, Mivins shall fetch it, and I'll help to drink it. That's a fair and gentlemanlike division of labour, anyhow. Curse me! Unwilling to hazard another quarrel, Mr. Pickwick gladly assented to the proposition, and consigned the money to Mr.
And as neither any human being nor spirit will thus get wind of it, won't it be better?" Pao-yue found her suggestion so full of reason that he thought himself obliged to abandon his purpose; so approaching the table, he poured a cup of tea, and came over and gave it to Hsi Jen to rinse her mouth with.
'Just give your hands a bit of a rinse, said the clerk, 'and put on your things and come down into the manager's office, will you? Paul nodded, and went off to the sink and the jack-towel, wondering a little. When in due time he presented himself before the manager he was at once enlightened. 'That is your week's money, Armstrong, and your services will not be required here further.
"Now rinse those, and while I wipe them, wash the rest and then change your water." When Margaret lifted out the plates, she turned them up edgewise and let the water run back into the rinsing-pan, so that they were already half-dry when she laid them on the tray.

One is absolutely forced to 'tip the goblet red, in order to have something palatable to rinse down his food.
When you come back to wash, all you'll have to do will be to rinse 'em out and put them out to dry." This sounded plausible, and the middy blouse and collars were left to soak themselves clean. The peddler proved to have a horse and wagon, and he carried dress goods, notions, kitchen wear, books, stationery and candy.
Fit back stems, sections, etc., then pack in a kettle in layers with fresh grape leaves between, add a bit of alum as big as the thumb's end, cover all with strong, cold vinegar, bring to a boil, and simmer gently for twenty minutes. Let stand in vinegar two or three days, throwing away the leaves. Take out, rinse and drain.
Grandmother's Cherry Bounce: Rinse a clean, empty whiskey barrel well with cold water, drain, and fill with very ripe Morello cherries, mixed with black wild cherries. One gallon wild cherries to five of Morellos is about the proper proportion. Strew scantly through the cherries, blade mace, whole cloves, allspice, a very little bruised ginger, and grated nutmeg.
