Surely he could do higher good to men's souls as they call them to whatever little spark of nobler and better fire there might lurk within those dull clods of common clay he saw all around him by writing such a work as his Leeds cantata, than by stringing together for ever those pretty centos of seventeenth-century conceits and nineteenth-century doubts or hesitations which he was accustomed to call his sermons!
The next morning the electricians arrived and began stringing the power cables from the paper mill to the newspaper office. This rendered it necessary for Mr. Merrick to make a trip to Royal, to complete his arrangement with Mr. Skeelty, the manager. He drove over with Arthur Weldon, in the buggy four miles of hill climbing, over rough cobble-stones, into the pine forest.
"I'll trouble you for that rod, master," said William. James was very busy stringing the fish through the gills upon a piece of osier. "At all events you will hear reason," said Jack. "I have arguments " "I never heard no good arguments in favour of poaching," interrupted the keeper. "You're an insolent fellow," replied Jack.
I read 'em myself. They've got the go, the pep. They're different. But, Milly, I didn't even know you could write." "Neither did I," said the girl staidly, "till I got to putting down some of the things I heard the girls say, and stringing them together with nonsense of my own. One evening I showed some of it to Mr. Veltman, and he took it here and had it printed." "I was going to suggest, Mr.
All morning spread the clamour of the flail and the fanning-mill, the swish of the knife through the turnips and the beets, and the sound of the saw and the axe, as the youngest man of the family, muffled to the nose, sawed the wood into lengths or split the knots. Night brought the cutting and stringing of apples, the shelling of the Indian corn, the making of rag carpets.
Who does not know the small, slanted, Italian hand of these girls'-compositions, their stringing together of the good old traditional copy-book phrases; their occasional gushes of sentiment, their profound estimates of the world, sounding to the old folks that read them as the experience of a bantam pullet's last-hatched young one with the chips of its shell on its head would sound to a Mother Cary's chicken, who knew the great ocean with all its typhoons and tornadoes?
An extract from Yvette's "Journal" gives her impression of the chase: "Some one pointed out the distant, moving specks on the horizon and in a moment our car had left the road and started over the plains. Nearer and nearer we came, and faster and faster ran the antelope stringing out in a long, yellow line before us. The speedometer was moving up and up, thirty miles, thirty-five miles.

What more embarrassing experience than to play a match with a racket you cannot recognize?
The volume of 1872 dedicated also to Tennyson which has been frequently reprinted, was arranged upon a principle, the reference of which to the poems chosen is far from clear "by simply stringing together certain pieces"; Browning wrote, "on the thread of an imaginary personality, I present them in succession, rather as the natural development of a particular experience than because I account them the most noteworthy portion of my work."
"Just so . . . just so," agreed Judson, imagining that they understood each other beautifully. "I didn't suppose you would. Of course, I was only stringing Jerry . . . he thinks he's so all-fired cute and smart. I've no intention of voting for Amesbury. I'm going to vote for Grant as I've always done . . . you'll see that when the election comes off.
