"But surely a man may do his work without giving up everything he holds dear," persisted Helen. "'Forsaketh not all that he hath," quoted the old lady softly. "Yes, but that's not for everybody," insisted Helen. "'Whosoever," quoted Mrs. Macgregor again, with a stern relentlessness in her tone. "Ay, there will be no slipping out from under yon."
Nor, of course, could those who came, as they tried to follow us. We heard them plainly entering the wood as we came to the edge of it and passed out toward the river bank. "We must get back to the horses, and then ride to Fernlea and the archbishop," I said, under my breath. "Ay, if we can," Erling answered; "but that is more easily said than done."

'Ay, said the captain, 'it is so; own it: frivolity's the fruit of that training that's all for the flesh. But dip you into some o' my books on my shelves here, and learn to see living man half skeleton, like life and shadow, and never to living man need you pray forgiveness, my lad. By sheer force of character he gained the command of our respect.
"Ah," Abel Keeling murmured, "that last was not a clear cast give me the line thus it should go ... ay, so.... Soon you shall sail the seas with me in the Mary of the Tower. You are already perfect in the stars and the motions of the planets; to-morrow I will instruct you in the use of the backstaff...." For a minute or two he continued to mutter; then he dozed.
"Do ye want to be killed?" said I. He sprang to his feet, and looked a question at me as clear as if he had spoken. "O!" cried I, "they're all murderers here; it's a ship full of them! They've murdered a boy already. Now it's you." "Ay, ay" said he; "but they have n't got me yet." And then looking at me curiously, "Will ye stand with me?" "That will I!" said I. "I am no thief, nor yet murderer.
Did anyone ever hear the like of that a man refusing money that was due to him, and it offered?" "It's out of the course of nature," said Ginty. "They told you," said Lord Dunseverick, "that you could pay Von Edelstein, and he'd give you a receipt." "Ay, Von Edelstein. And where's Von Edelstein?"

"Ay," said Jenkins, folding his thin hands upon the counterpane, and speaking as in self-commune; "we must live near to God to know His mercy. It does seem almost as if I had asked a favour of any earthly person, so exactly has it been granted me! Mr. Arthur, I prayed that I might live to see you put right with Mr.
John said 'how ripping, but decided to have tea first. He asked if there were many pirates on the island just now, and Peter said he had never known so many. 'Who is captain now? 'Hook, answered Peter; and his face became very stern as he said that hated word. 'Jas. Hook? 'Ay.
