"When will it come?" said Constance, with unwonted gravity.
Pettifer's favourite hat, produced the book-leaf, very much worn, but still legible, and gave both his legs such tremendous slaps that they were heard far off in the bay, and never accounted for.

"To fill thy odorous lamp with deeds of light," she had just read once more, when down fell a second tree-leaf on the book-leaf. Again she brushed it away, and read to the end of the sonnet: "Hast gained thy entrance, virgin wise and pure." What Letty's thoughts about the sonnet were, I can not tell: how fix thought indefinite in words defined?
