"I hunted it down with my trusty club, and only got stuck a half-dozen times while I was skinning and cleaning it." She ate avidly, and when she'd finished he offered more, which she refused until he'd had a share.

The flame was in the eye and in the cheek, the coals may be still burning in the heart, but when we come to the words it leaves behind it, a little warmth, a cinder or two just glimmering under the dead gray ashes, that is all we can look for. When it comes to the manufactured article, one is surprised to find how well the metrical artisans have learned to imitate the real thing.

There were more than one pair there were several all looking up at us and glittering like coals of fire! `What sort could they be? asked we of one another. `Were they wolves?
