“But you are earning enough to buy him something better; and you know there is always plenty at the house that I am willing to spare him.” “I got no chance me fu’ go to de ’ouse neider,” he replied deliberately, after washing down the scant repast with a long draught from the tin bucket which he had replenished at the cistern before entering.
"Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern. "Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it." Pass on to the silversmiths' quarter. Any of these men can do fine and beautiful work with very few tools.
'Having no secrets of my own to house, it were evil indeed to turn my friends' out of doors. 'Why, that also would do for Dr. Bayly! Well said, Dorothy! Now for thy next question. 'It is this, my lord: having such a well in your foundations, whence the need of such a cistern on your roof? I mean now as regards the provision of the keep itself in case of ultimate resort.
A garbage burner had been installed at the rear of the dairy not far from the woodshed. The plans for the house included a cistern for the collection of rain water in the cellar under the laundry. After these had been planned, they decided that the old brick smokehouse was in a bad location and too far away from the house.
The pipe from the source of supply in the present case from the hydraulic ram must be attached to the upper three way cock at A, on the accompanying engravings, and the pipe to supply softened water is to be connected to the lower three-way cock at B, and should be led into the elevated cistern with a ball cock so as to keep it always filled.
Much good may they do them! May they become as wise as the writer wished them, and they will be much happier than he.

She stopped and whispered to him to go softly, as they came to a stairway, as steep and dark as a cistern. Blake, at the top, could smell opium smoke, and once or twice he thought he heard voices. The woman stopped him, with outstretched arms, at the stair head, and together they stood and listened. Blake, with nerves taut, waited for some sign from her to go on again.
The bare soul of humanity comforted her. She was not merely of the same flesh and blood with them not even of the same soul and spirit only, but of the same failing, sinning, blundering breed; and that not alone in the general way of sin, ever and again forsaking the fountain of living water, and betaking herself to some cistern, but in their individual sins was she not their near relative?
I do not apprehend that there will ever be a shortage of building materials in Bermuda, for this is how a house is built. The whole formation being of coral, the stones are quarried on the actual site of the house, the hole thus created being cemented and used as a cistern for the rain-water from the roof.
Here what do you find in a huge stone well sunk into the bowels of the earth? About as enticing as a plunge into a dry cistern, suddenly unroofed? If spectres we must hunt, do let them be festive, like those Faust danced with on the Brocken!" "You should be ashamed, Alma!
