He was, as he desired, close to nature, living the full measure of life, a worker among workers, taking enjoyment in simple pleasures, healthy in mind and body. He believed in an existence passed in this fashion in the country, working hard, eating full, drinking deep, sleeping dreamlessly. But every night, after supper, he saddled his pony and rode over to the garden of the old Mission.
To-morrow if you are well enough you shall see and judge for yourself." She drew up the kaross over me, again patted my hand in her motherly fashion and departed, still smiling, after which I went to sleep again, so dreamlessly that I think there was some native soporific in that soup.
While the Seraph slept dreamlessly, with the tents of the French camp around him, and the sleepless eyes of Cigarette watched afar off the dim, distant forms of the vedettes as they circled slowly round at their outpost duty eight leagues off, through a vast desert of shadow and silence, the two horsemen swept swiftly on.
Ah! at that moment, as she stood there robed in a soft stainless white muslin, with a cluster of double pomegranate flowers glowing in her silky hair, the girl was very lovely, very attractive, so full of youthful grace, so winning in her beautiful enthusiasm, yet Ulpian Grey's heart did not wander for an instant from one who slept dreamlessly under the sculptured urn on the marble altar of the mausoleum.

She could hear their breathing; Bulangi's sleepy voice; the sharp cry of a child soon hushed with tender words.
"Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on thee; because he trusteth in thee." "Dear God, I trust in thee!" he murmured; then he climbed into the soft bed and slept dreamlessly.

The poor child was too weary to indulge in many terrors, the beneficent torpor of excessive fatigue was upon her, happily bringing slumberous oblivion instead of feverish restlessness. She strove to repeat her accustomed orisons; but sleep was too strong for her, and she was soon lying dreamlessly upon the clean homely couch prepared for her. When she awoke, it was with a start.
