They're a little shady they'll take your money." "Suppose they won't?" asked the other. "Then wait outside for me, and I'll take you somewhere else." "What shall I buy?"
I wish this rebel war was over.... Well, here are the corrals and the fields. Gale, take a look at that bunch of horses!" Belding's last remark was made as he led his companions out of shady gardens into the open.
Where shall you find a more piquant peace than in the shady quadrangles that branch out of the bustle of Fleet Street, and flash a memory of Oxford spires or Cambridge gardens on the inner eye? What spot in the world has inspired a nobler sonnet than Wordsworth's on Westminster Bridge? Who would exchange our happy incongruity for the mechanical regularity of the mushroom cities of the States?
