But the green fields swam and the sea danced for her a moment later. The world was all splashed and blotched and misty. "I'll be braave like him," she thought, smothering the great sobs and rubbing her knuckles into her eyes till she hurt them.
"Just like your father," Ann said, "ready to go in the morning." "Mmm delicious. Goodbye, Jeremy," he said to the cat who was rubbing against his ankle, anxious to be let out. "Well, get going then. Take the mug. Keep it. Maybe it will remind you of Maine and help bring you back." "Thanks, Ann. It was very good to see you and Brendan. Take care of yourself."
Then he betook himself to light a fire by rubbing together two dry sticks till a flame was produced, and this fire he fed from time to time with branches and logs from the woods. He had also, his food to obtain and to cook goat's flesh or cray-fish, which he boiled in his large sauce-pan; and to gather the tender tops of the cabbage-palm or other vegetables, for bread.
Then rubbing his head rapidly with both hands, as if she were anointing his hair with some rare unguent, she patted him on the back, and returned to her room.

"Especially in situations of any complexity," continued the modest young man, rubbing out his strokes with his foot.
Make a force-meat of grated bread, and minced onion and sage, pepper, salt, and beaten yolk of egg; mix it well, and spread it all over the inside of the pork. Then roll up the meat, and with a sharp knife score it round in circles, rubbing powdered sage into the cuts. Tie a buttered twine round the roll of meat so as to keep it together in every direction.
I gave Jennie and Charlie two hours of my time, and went home, to return in the evening at Mollie's request.

Then I assisted her to bed, rubbing her aching bones, and left her less feverish than when I went in.
He said he was rubbing it in for my good, so that I shouldn't go and do the same thing next time. "Because now we're coming to the point there will be a next time for you, Furnival. That's why I don't even pretend to be sorry for you. There'll be other women. But there aren't any next times for me, and there aren't any other women. This I mean she was my one chance.
