I confess I do not believe in any authentic representation of the Virgin holding the Divine Child older than the sixth century, except when introduced into the groups of the Nativity and the Worship of the Magi.

You know, you and I and all that we carry will only weigh about a sixth of what we did on the earth." "Very well, then, I'll take the whole-plate apparatus as well as the kodak and the panorama camera. When I'm ready, Murgatroyd will tell you to come down." "But isn't he coming with us too?"

If there is no printed catalog this explanation will have to be given to fifth and sixth years also. They should be advised to use both kinds, and particularly the dictionary catalog for biography, as the short analytical references are most often what they want. Children, boys again particularly, take to the card catalog with a confidence often lacking in their elders.

She grew delirious that very night, and so continued till her death, which happened on the sixth day, when the small-pox began to appear. During her delirium she discovered our love, and incessantly called on me to deliver her from her tyrant. Thus, in the flower of her age, perished one of the most lovely women I ever knew, and with her fled all I held most dear.

The book ascribed to Matthew says 'there was darkness over all the land from the sixth hour unto the ninth hour that the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom that there was an earthquake that the rocks rent that the graves opened, that the bodies of many of the saints that slept arose and came out of their graves after the resurrection, and went into the holy city and appeared unto many.

He's the only fellow who seems to know anything about this blessed battle. My general's sending you a chit about him. 'No need, I said, laughing. 'I know his value. He's an old friend of mine. I used Wake as my link with Corps Headquarters, and especially with Blenkiron. For about the sixth day of the show I was beginning to get rather desperate. This kind of thing couldn't go on for ever.

Indeed, not modern politics but Greek philosophy had been the first subject to stir that almost religious passion for a real understanding of things, without which knowledge is in the old man mere pedantry and in the young man mere grist for the examination mill. In the present educational chaos, school sixth forms are quite bewilderingly fissiparous.

Mannering, therefore, stood among this lugubrious company of cousins in the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth degree, composing his countenance to the decent solemnity of all who were around him, and looking as much concerned on Mrs. Margaret Bertram's account as if the deceased lady of Singleside had been his own sister or mother.

Charley was too weak to get out that day, but he cheerfully scouted the idea that a turkey for each man would not arrive sooner or later. The rest of us dined and supped on "commissary." It was not good commissary either, for Brownie, the "greasy cook," had gone on leave to visit a "doughboy" cousin of the Sixth Corps. "You'll have turkey for dinner, boys," he had said, on serving out breakfast.
