Meneptah turned his troubled eyes hurriedly toward the east. He must not miss the sunrise. At that moment, unheralded, the disk of the sun shot above the horizon as if blown from a crater of the under-world blurred, milky-white, without warmth. He turned away and faced Nechutes, bending before him; behind the cup-bearer, a stately stranger Kenkenes.

So they separated for the night the woman's heart bleeding from the reopening of the former wound, yet happier that her accepted confidante had become acquainted with that part of her life which was consecrated to a memory; the girl made older by the sudden drawing of the curtain from one of life's daily yet unheralded tragedies. Stephen Sanford arrived in Washington two days later.

Behind the smoke-clouds of great events his intriguing figure followed unseen, unheralded, influencing dynasties through his secretaries and agents one of whom was Prime Minister of a foreign kingdom and financing bankrupt states.

The fact takes its place unheralded in the reasoning. It is there because it has to be there, not because the writer wishes to make a display of his wonderful knowledge; and thus it happens that Ferdinand Brunetière's literary articles are perhaps the most instructive ones ever written in the French language. They are moreover admirably trustworthy.

"It is rather unusual that a white man comes unheralded," he said, as they walked together toward the field into which he had suggested that the traveler might turn his pony.

It was amid an utter silence, unheralded by even so slight a sound as those which I had acquired the power of detecting that I saw the continuity of the smudgy line of stair-rail to be interrupted. A dark patch showed upon it, just within my line of sight, invisible to Smith on the other side of the doorway, and some ten or twelve stairs up.

The strange isolation in which they then found themselves between locked doors a mile apart, earth above, earth beneath, earth all around them, they two alone, entombed yet vividly conscious of glowing life had brought her nearer to him; and when at last the moment of parting arrived and again he faced it as final, there had come all unheralded the sudden wonder of her surrender.

Though nature is wasteful of material things, there is no waste of spirit And then after long years there comes, unheralded and unlooked-for, the day of the Appointed Time....
