Half a mile up the slope the cedars grew thickly, so that the material for the fence was easily accessible. The wash proved to be a perpendicularly walled gorge fifty or more feet deep with a sandy dry floor.

You cannot put a whole geometry into your brain three days before examination, without its bulging and breaking through the cranium in less than a month's time. You cannot sweep and bake and wash Saturday morning, without the pies burning, the clothes tearing, and the dust flying.
I was working for Spalton during my stay, which I meant to make a brief one. I was shovelling coal for him, and firing a furnace. Wash as I might, I could not remove a faint blackness that clung to the edges of my eyes. This made my eyes glow and seem larger than they were.
