You saw nothing bonny, you never heard of my setting my heart on anything, but what you flung up your head and cried, "Wait till I'm a man." You fair shamed me before the neighbours, and yet I was windy, too. And now it has all come true like a dream.

"I cannot follow the custom of the maidens," wept Chayah. "Thou knowest we are blood-poor, and I have not the wherewithal to buy my Bear a Talith for his wedding-day; nay, not even to make him a Talith-bag. Perchance he will rely upon me for his wedding Talith, and we shall be shamed in the sight of the congregation." "Nay, dry thine eyes, my sister," said Naphtali.

Then, from beside it, she picked up the Sharps. He saw that, and his jaw squared. The blood darkened his face, too, as if the sight shamed him. He spurred faster, reined so sharply that the horse slid upon its fetlocks, and swung off. "Dallas!" he cried. It was not a greeting, but a plea. The moment was one long dreamed of, yearned for.

But Mr. Duncan at once subscribed for Liberty Bonds, and so did Professor Dyer, and that shamed Silas Herring into buying a big bunch of them also." "H-m-m," murmured Josie contentedly.

That she, who had just been shown the secret, inner heart of one blind man, should deliberately wound another, seemed more than she could bear, and live. Brian remained silent, partly because he was still confused, and partly to give Dierdre the chance to speak, which he felt instinctively she would wish to seize. She took a step forward, then stopped, with a sob, shamed tears stinging her eyes.
