At the same pension with myself was a young Swiss Benedictine monk, who sat by me at table d'hote, and with whom I struck up a warm friendship. I commented to him on what I had seen. "Oh!" he replied, "we make a point of never saluting the king. Why," he continued, "only yesterday I was walking down the Corso with Cardinal U , when we saw the queen's carriage approaching.
Not to rub away is to let it stay and surely that is neat and sweet. The two which makes enough is what is that and the question is that it comes in the morning. A little expression of marrying means that and it succeeds in saluting. This means something.
The sergeant-major, who had stood erect as his own halbert, which he held before him in a saluting position, during this brief admonition of his colonel, acknowledged, by a certain air of deferential respect and dropping of the eyes, unaccompanied by speech of any kind, that he felt the reproof, and would, in future, take care to avoid all similar cause for complaint.
T'en to your regimen'." He faced about and took the sword his valet proffered. "Au revoir, messieurs!" "Serviteur, madame!" And, buckling his sword-belt as he went, he swept out, leaving the door wide open, Belmont following, Wentworth saluting and the guards presenting arms. "Come, sir," said the captain in a subdued voice, his eyes avoiding Ruth's face.

He cordially applauded her, and in the genuine kindness of an admiration that surprised him, he permitted himself the liberty of taking and saluting her fingers. She fancied there was another chance for her, but he frowned at the mention of it.
And you will see Gosport on the other side of the harbour, and Sally Port close to you; besides a great many other places, which, from the saluting battery, you cannot see. And then there is Southsea Beach to your left.
A review by the King in war time is a pretty sure indication that the division will move shortly. I had an excellent point of vantage on a little hill opposite the saluting base where the King and Lord Kitchener stood. That review was the real thing.
"For ages and ages, amen!" answered those present, in the meanwhile saluting very profoundly. "Where is the host?" The German having heard the call, advanced to the front and kneeled, in the German fashion, on one knee. "We are going to stop here and rest," said the lady. "Only be quick, because we are hungry."
