Mr Vanslyperken, under the eye of his superior officer, could not dally or delay: he hove short, hoisted his mainsail, and fired a gun as a signal for sailing; anxiously looking out for Ramsay's boat with his letters, and afraid to go without them; but no boat made its appearance, and Mr Vanslyperken was forced to heave up his anchor.
She caught the reflex of his passionate devotion, and thrilled a little beneath his touch. He felt it in a moment, and caught her hands again. "Give me a word of hope!" he cried. "Ah, my beloved, wilt thou not say that some day thou wilt love me?" Freda was not one who would dally and trifle with her heart. "In sooth, methinks I love thee now, Anthony.

Crashaw quoted, inaccurately, statistics of the growth of lunacy, and then went off at a tangent into the theory of possession by evil spirits.

"We have no time to lose, maiden," said Philip: "but tell me your name, that I may address you as I ought." "My name is Amine," replied she, retreating a little.
