The humble labourer, without any great speaking ability, and often involved in a struggle to earn the barest livelihood for himself and family, was taught how to share in seeking the Salvation of men.
I ran as fast as I could with the bags they were beautifully matched expensive luggage to put them in the turtle and then had to make myself still more ridiculous by running back for the forgotten key resting in the sidepocket. When I had finally stowed away the baggage and opened the door for her she got in with the barest of condescending nods for my efforts and sat staring ahead.
Thenceforth everything good or desirable, above what might serve for the barest subsistence of labor, was systematically and exhaustively gathered up by the capitalists, to be exchanged in foreign lands for gold and gems, silks, velvets, and ostrich plumes for the rich. As Goldsmith had it: "Around the world each needful product flies For all the luxuries the world supplies."
The introduction received from Toomey the barest acknowledgment as he directed his gaze to the grazing sheep. "Where you taking them?" he asked in a curt tone. "I really couldn't tell you yet." Toomey glanced at him sharply, attracted by the cultivated tone. "I wouldn't advise you to locate here; this is my range." "Own it?" inquired the herder mildly. "N-no." "Lease it?" "N-no."
For, as when the red-cheeked, dancing girls, April and May, trip home to the wintry, misanthropic woods; even the barest, ruggedest, most thunder-cloven old oak will at least send forth some few green sprouts, to welcome such gladhearted visitants; so Ahab did, in the end, a little respond to the playful allurings of that girlish air.

"Oh no it's not for you! I've ... I've a message for him. I shall soon be back." An excusable fiction, she thought, under the circumstances. She was only just in time to catch Dr.
Did I read altogether wrong?" "Don't expect a confession from me, sir," demurely. "I have no memory of any promise." "No, the barest suggestion was all your lips gave; it was the eyes that challenged." "You must have dreamed; perhaps you recall the suggestion?" "I took it to mean that you would not be altogether averse to meeting me again through the kindness of some mutual friend."
She had foreseen this, that Thyrza would fall ill; in fear of that she had deprived herself of all save the barest necessaries, that she might save a little money. But strangers had tended her sister, and with her gladness at receiving news mingled jealousy of the hands that had been preferred to her own. Only now the bitterness of separation seemed to be tasted to the full.
Beat it on yer toes fer the front of the house!" The room was flooded with light.
