'Safe now, thinks I, as utterly outdone I sank on a noiseless bed of pine-needles; and by the Lord Harry 'twas none too soon, for if it hadn't been for the kindly moon dipping I'd have been in two pieces by now. 'To Jupiter Optimus Maximus I owe an altar, says I, in my first recovered breath, and, 'curse that infernal reiver, says I in my second, 'but I'll be up ends with him yet.
The level surface of the lake, undisturbed except by the occasional dipping of a teal-duck, or coot, was gilded with the beams of the setting luminary, and reflected, as if in a golden mirror, the hills amongst which it lay embossed.
Therefore Simon Peter gave him a significant look, that he should inquire of Jesus, which of them it should be of whom he spake. And he leaning on the breast of Jesus, said to him, Lord, which is it? Jesus answered, It is he to whom I shall give this morsel of bread, when I have dipped it. And dipping the morsel of bread, he gave it unto Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.
Let us learn, then, that in every covenant of God there are two things which one must consider; these are Word and Sign. In baptism these are the words of the baptiser and the dipping in water.

Having read over this letter and come to the conclusion that it pretty clearly expressed all that he at that moment desired to say to the Governor of Panama, George made a further rummage of the cabin and, having at length found a sheet of paper large enough for his purpose, he took a pen and, dipping the feather of it in ink, proceeded laboriously to print upon it, in Spanish, a proclamation to the citizens of Panama, informing them that he, George Saint Leger, having certain differences to settle with His Excellency the Governor of the city, had, as a preliminary, captured the Cristobal Colon, to which ship he had summoned the Governor, before the hour of noon, for the purpose of a conference; and that, failing obedience on the Governor's part, the city would be bombarded.

They hurried away down the slope and vanished into the woods. And some minutes later the sound of the dipping paddles came faintly up upon the still evening air. Murray had not yet reappeared.
The sun was just dipping behind the tall cliffs, and his parting rays were kissing the top of Minnie's head as if they positively could not help it, and had recklessly made up their mind to do it, come what might! Ruby looked at the golden light kissing the golden hair, and he felt
The middy bowed with feelings of indignation, but on reaching the door paused, and again essayed to speak. "I give you fair warning, Ben-Ahmed, that I will not " "Silence!" again roared the Moor, seizing an ornamental box and hurling it violently at his slave, who, dipping his head, allowed it to go crashing against the wall, while he went out and shut the door.
Still only half herself, so sudden and surprising was all this, she answered in his own tone, quiet, but threaded with deep meaning, "Yes, I think I was."
