"Yes; they must have had, together, more than a hundred thousand francs income oh, yes, much more; for within five or six months the count, who had not the bucolic tastes of poor Sauvresy, sold some lands to buy consols." "Have they been married long?" M. Courtois scratched his head; it was his appeal to memory. "Faith," he answered, "it was in September of last year; just six months ago.
My vrouw told me some time ago that you were sweet in that direction yourself;" and he stopped at last, out of breath, looking anxiously towards Muller for an answer, while John, who had been somewhat overwhelmed at this flood of bucolic chaff, gave a sigh of relief. As for Muller, he behaved in a curious manner.
A poem called A Winter Night reveals Sara Teasdale as thoroughly at home in Manhattan as the most bucolic shepherd among his flocks. To poets' minds the only unæsthetic habitat nowadays seems to be the country town.
Then I saw that in the minds of these bucolic maidens I was scarcely, if at all, human; they did not understand that I belonged to the race; I was a "Yankee" a something of the non-human class, as the gorilla or the chimpanzee.

I thought he was tied hand and foot by bucolic occupations."
There is a deal of grim bucolic humour in this, and it very nearly hits the truth. The putwarrie, then, is an important personage. Each possesses the instruments of his calling in the shape of a small brass ink-pot, and an oblong box containing a knife, pencil, and several reeds for pens.
When the Professor had explained to his patrons his gallant capture of the only living Missing Link in the jungles of Darkest Africa, and had put Mahdi through his paces, to the great amazement of the bucolic audience, he said: "And now, ladies and gents.
The bucolic character at Hayslope, you perceive, was not of that entirely genial, merry, broad-grinning sort, apparently observed in most districts visited by artists.
