The entire neighbourhood is given up to the printer and binder; and even my patient turned out to be a guillotine-knife grinder a ferocious and revolutionary calling strangely at variance with his harmless appearance and meek bearing.
When Ishmael had first started machinery at Cloom, beginning with a binder and going on to a steam thresher that he hired out for the harvest all around the district, the hedges had been black with folk crowding to see the wonders, just as they had when the first traction engine made its appearance in West Penwith.
Milton complied; but, as the loss of the first copy had amused him, he took the trouble of writing a mock-heroic Latin ode on the subject to Rous, and causing this ode, transcribed on a sheet of paper in a secretary hand of elaborate elegance, to be inserted by the binder in the new copy, between the English and the Latin portions of the contents.
But I shall never openly speak of it. The binder can cut off my feet first, the same as Olie's did with that mother-rabbit which stood trembling over her nest of young. Why must life sometimes be so ruthlessly tragic? And why, oh, why, are women sometimes so absurd? And why should I be afraid of what every woman who would justify her womanhood must face?

"The Dutch and Saxon ministers," urged Binder. "Little nobodies," said Kaunitz, with a shrug. "I will not see them." "But, indeed, you presume too much upon their littleness. Only yesterday you invited the Hessian ambassador to dine, and then you sat down to table without him." "He was three minutes behind the time. And do you imagine that Prince Kaunitz waits for a poor little Hessian envoy?
Everybody allowed that jolly old Binder had the right idea; and that Magoffin might as well shut up shop. Every one in town wanted to see him officiate at a funeral, and there was a lot of talk about encouraging new enterprises, but it didn't come to anything. No one appeared to have any public spirit. Seemed as if we'd never had a healthier spring than that one. Couldn't fetch a nigger, even.
"It would certainly have been more convenient," said Baron Binder, "if the King of Prussia had visited us in Vienna." Kaunitz turned his large eyes full upon his friend. "I suppose," said he, "that you jest, Binder; for you MUST know that it is never safe to have your enemy under your own roof."
He sends his order to Jones, a broker who has solicited the business. Jones's clerk enters up the order and makes out a slip called a binder, which is an abbreviated form of contract insuring the customer until a complete contract in the form of a policy can be issued.
The pages were blank, however, and bound according to an ingenious device which he had planned and given the binder, by which they could be removed and replaced at will, and, if necessary, extra pages could be added.
He turned it over again now as the clattering binder went round and round, diminishing the square of waving gold, littering the stubble with swathes; and at every passing of it he waved to Jimmy, even when the child had forgotten his presence and was showing off for the benefit of some newcomer in the little group.
