I thanked her for making me laugh, as did the sick and poor, whom she was sure to find out in her briefest sojourn in any place, for more substantial aid. Happy are those who never grieve, and so often aid and enliven their fellow men! This scene, however, I was not sorry to exchange for the much celebrated beauties of the Island of Mackinaw.

He spoke very kindly, with a gentleness that was infinitely reassuring. With an impulsive movement of complete confidence, she slipped her hand through his arm. "Thank you, Knight Errant," she said. "I wanted that." She did not ask him anything about Dinghra, and he wondered a little at her forbearance. The days of Rivington's sojourn slipped by with exceeding smoothness.

On the second day of their sojourn, as Ben Jones, John Day, and others of the hunters were in pursuit of game, they came upon an Indian camp on the open prairie, near to a small stream which ran through a ravine.

Prosper wished with all his heart for the arrival of the concerted signal, which should tell Henri Glaire that he might fulfil the purpose of his sojourn at the Maison Alix, and set forth for Marseilles. But the signal did not come, and the dayslong, beautiful, sunny, soothing summer-dayswent on.

Shortly after my education at college was finished, I happened to be staying at Paris with an English friend. We were both young men then, and lived, I am afraid, rather a wild life, in the delightful city of our sojourn. One night we were idling about the neighborhood of the Palais Royal, doubtful to what amusement we should next betake ourselves.

The streets of the city also are full of boys and girls playing in the streets thereof. The land of Beulah has its frequent visitors also, and its welcome guests from the regions above. Some of the shining ones come down from time to time and make a short sojourn in Beulah.

The poet in some of his stanzas has described the fine view of the port and the disconsolate dirtiness of the city itself, the streets of which were at that time rendered dangerous by the frequency of religious and political assassinations. Nothing else remains of his sojourn to interest us, save the statement of Mr.

With the chieftain of almost every castle in his progress he passed a day, and according to the interest which the situation of the surrounding peasantry created in his mind he lengthened his sojourn. Everywhere he was welcomed with enthusiasm, and his glad eye beheld the festivities of Christmas with a delight which recalled past emotions, till they wrung his heart.

Nothing more salutary for Irene Derwent than this sojourn with persons whom she in every way respected with whom there was not the least temptation to exhibit her mere dexterities.
