Jewel pulled her upright and placed her on the mossy divan. "If I'd only brought the trowel I could get the hole ready," Jewel was saying, when a whistle, soft and clear as a flute, sounded above the brook's gurgle. She lifted a finger in caution. "Oh," she whispered, looking up into her cousin's face, "the loveliest bird! Hush."
Only hath duty Such a sight found. Rest is not quitting The busy career; Rest is the fitting Of self to its sphere. 'Tis the brook's motion, Clear without strife, Fleeing to ocean After its life. Deeper devotion Nowhere hath knelt; Fuller emotion Heart never felt. 'Tis loving and serving The Highest and Best! 'Tis onwards! unswerving, And that is true rest."
'Oh! It seemed that the word of Mr. Sperrit's confidential clerk had weight. 'Charlie came down to help Mr. Sidney lift the gates, Rhoda continued. 'The floodgates? They are perfectly easy to handle now. I've put in a wheel and a winch. 'When the brook's really up they must be took clean out on account of the rubbish blockin' 'em. That's why Charlie came down. Midmore grunted impatiently.
Lakes Tsórmina and Sishwóymina are not on any maps; indeed, this region has never been mapped save very crudely from the distant flanks of Denali upon one of Alfred Brook's early bold journeys into the interior of Alaska on behalf of the Geological Survey.
"The Brook's been good friends to me, and if she be minded," he says, "to take a snatch at my hay, I ain't settin' out to withstand her." That's what Jim Wickenden says to me last last June-end 'twas, said Jabez. 'Nor he hasn't shifted his stack, neither, Jesse replied. 'An' if there's more rain, the brook she'll shift it for him. 'No need tell me! But I want to know what Jim was gettin' at?
In Arthur Brook's story, from which Shakspere took his, there is no mention of any communication from Lady Capulet to Juliet of their intention of marrying her to Count Paris. Why does Shakspere insert this? to explain her falling in love with Romeo so suddenly. Her mother has set her mind moving in that direction. She has never seen Paris.
"That's quite the best thing for you and altogether why, this afternoon, I brought him: he might have better luck in finding you it was he who suggested it than he has had by himself. I'm in a general way," Vanderbank added, "watching over him." "I see and he's watching over you." Mrs. Brook's sweet vacancy had already taken in so much.
She refused to believe that he would ruin her in cold blood, as she must be ruined if she got a divorce from Crosby, and if Brook would not marry her; and much more. Why should she be ruined? Brook asked himself. If Crosby divorced her on Brook's account, it would be another matter altogether.
'The brook's got up a piece since morning, said Jabez. 'Sounds like's if she was over Wickenden's door-stones. Jesse listened, too. There was a growl in the brook's roar as though she worried something hard. 'Yes. She's over Wickenden's door-stones, he replied. 'Now she'll flood acrost Alder Bay an' that'll ease her. 'She won't ease Jim Wickenden's hay none if she do, Jabez grunted.
The "Chequers" and other public-houses, however, did a roaring trade, for the sight-seer in the black country is the thirstiest of men. It was soon known that the magistrates would sit at Mr. Brook's at one o'clock, and a policeman went round the village with a list of names given him by Mr. Dodgson, to summon witnesses to attend.
