Outside the city walls stretch the wheat-fields and the meadows, the vineyards and orchards, all snug in the nest of forest-crowned hills, whose lower slopes are spotted with broken herds of cattle and the more mobile flocks of sheep. An air of tranquillity lies low over the entire vista; one dozes if he looks long into this peaceful bowl of plenty.

Mark Fisher's painting is optimistic. His skies are blue, his sunlight dozes in the orchard, his chestnut trees are in bloom. The melodrama of nature never appears in his pictures; his lanes and fields reflect a gentle mind that has found happiness in observing the changes of the seasons. Happy Mark Fisher!

Monday has a desire to sleep?" observed Mr. Effingham, in the manner in which one puts an interrogation. "He is easier, and dozes. I have left my man with him, with orders to summon me the instant he awakes." A melancholy pause succeeded, and then the discourse took the channel from which it had been diverted. "Is the extent of our losses in effects known?" asked Mr. Sharp.

When she started out of these short dozes she heard nothing, saw nothing a white vapor shrouded her eyes. The doctor remained watching over her for a part of the night, which proved a very bad one. He only absented himself for a moment to procure some medicine. Towards morning, when he was about to leave, Helene, with terrible anxiety in her face accompanied him into the ante-room.

Except that it was the first Monday in June, and Founder's Day at Heriot's Hospital, it was like any other day of useful work, innocent pleasure, and dreaming dozes on Auld Jock's grave to wee Bobby. As years go, the shaggy little Skye was an old dog, but he was not feeble or blind or unhappy.

Perhaps the extent and thoroughness of this monumental sermon can be best estimated by the fact that Claypots, father of the present tenant, who always timed his rest to fifty minutes exactly, thus overseeing both the introduction and application of the sermon, had a double portion, and even a series of supplementary dozes, till at last he sat upright through sheer satiety.

"Indeed," said Mr. Twist, hastily rearranging his mind's-eye view of Uncle Arthur. "He goes fat suddenly," said Anna-Felicitas, waking from one of her dozes. "As though he had swallowed a bomb, and it had stuck when it got to his waistcoat." "If you can imagine it," added Anna-Rose politely, ready to explain and describe further if required. But Mr. Twist could imagine it.

Hanging from the trellis-work, back downwards, she hunts, eats, digests, dozes, casts her skin, undergoes her transformation, mates, lays her eggs and dies. She clambered up there when she was still quite young; she falls down, full of days, a corpse. Things do not happen exactly like this under natural conditions.

Jocelyn well?" he asked apprehensively. "I fear he isn't well at all," she answered with some despondency. "He is sleeping now; he always rests Sunday afternoon, and we try to let him rest all he can. He sleeps, or rather dozes, a great deal, and seems losing his strength and energy," and she spoke quite frankly concerning their plans, projects, and hopes.

II. Love dozes by the purling brook, No friend to lonely places; Or, if he toy with Strephon's crook, His Chloes are the Graces. III. Forsake 'The Flaunting Town! Alas! Be cells for saints, my own love! The wine of life's a social glass, Nor may be quaffed alone, love. IV. Behold the dead and solemn sea, To which our beings flow; Let waves that soon so dark must be Catch every glory now.
