"I was a-mending my nets, yer honour, along with Simon Harte, and young Master Walsham was a-sailing his boat in a pool, along with the little gal as lives at his mother's." "How far were you from the spot where he was?" the squire asked. "Two hundred yards or so, I should say," the fisherman replied. "We was working behind a boat, but we could see over it well enough.
"Farewell, Blood-sister!" piped a voice; "make merry as thou mayest, but merrier shall be our nights when thou hast gone a-sailing with Eric on the sea. Farewell! farewell! Were-wolf thou didst call me once, and as a wolf I came. Rat thou didst call me once, and as a rat I came. Toad didst thou call me once, and as a toad I came.
Unending is this afternoon, And strange this landscape as the moon, With home a thousand miles away The pasture where his brothers play With whoop and shout, in Indian fray; The porch where, even at this hour, His mother prunes the vine and flower, And hums the nursery melody, "I saw a ship a-sailing, A-sailing on the sea." * VOL.

"Or to go away north, and get out on that there short soft grass, as always looks as if it had been kept well-mown, out there by the Rill Head, and lie down on our backs, and look at the sun shining on the sea and ships a-sailing along, eh, Master Fred?" "Oh, Samson, Samson, don't talk about it!" sighed Fred, as he gazed right away in imagination at the scene his rough companion painted.
Yer pretty flowers done it pretty flowers spit o' hell! I knowed 'em I fought 'em I'll fight 'em to the death of 'em!" His little red-rimmed eyes hardly veiled his contempt for Milt Rogers. A cowman, sailing this dusky purple bay to see a girl! A girl who sang in the lily drift a-sailing on this dirty, reeking bumboat, with cattle dying jammed in the pens!
Some days later I got all of the song from one of the intermediate passengers, and the last verse of it I give here: "I'm a-sailing, I'm a-sailing on the sea, To a harbour where the wind is still; Oh, my dearie, do you wait for me? Oh, my dearie, do you love me still? Sing, hey, for a rover on the sea, And the old world!" I noticed that Mrs.

The intellectual life had, even for him, become something of a struggle. But, tired as he sometimes was, she made him go, sending, as it were, her knight into the battle. "Because now," she said, "we shall have to keep it up more than ever. For them, you know." "'I saw a ship a-sailing, a-sailing on the sea, And it was full of pretty things for Baby and for me."
Nevertheless, the boys with whom he went to school never tired of calling him "Pirate," and would sometimes sing for his benefit that famous catchpenny ballad beginning thus: "Oh! my name was Captain Brand, A-sailing, And a-sailing; Oh! my name was Captain Brand, A-sailing free. Oh! my name was Captain Brand, And I sinned by sea and land, For I broke God's just command, A-sailing free."
Malcolm, telling her it was not becoming that she should any longer be dependent upon her own industry. For this the young man got a name like a sweet odour in all the country-side. It will be remembered that Charlie Malcolm went a-sailing in a tobacco-trader to America.
