These are druids of eld, if you will, harpers hoar, plucking wild symphonies from the tense wires of the storm wind's three-stringed harp. Yet the dryad dwells within them as well, and on gentler days they show her in many phases of queenly womanhood.
The platform was deserted. The old folks, too, were dancing. Martha Waterman caught the recognition of it in Isabel's eyes, pointed at the empty seats of eld, and nodded gayly. She sped out of her place and, losing no step, danced up to Isabel and Andrew. "I dunno which's the youngest, old or young," she cried, "nor they don't either.
What's kept them all this while? 'It is possible, sir, that the rope might not have 'eld.

Or' his eye, grave and inscrutable, rested for a moment on Martin's 'some party might 'ave come along and huntied it a-puppus.
Eld is a local notability, Ferdinand. Mr. Eld speaks his mind to everybody. I'm afraid he's on the other side, and in that case you'll have many a tussle with him before you come to the hustings. Eh?

For five minutes they all talked at once, with their nasty fists 'eld under my nose. I couldn't make lead or tail of it at fust, and then I found as 'ow they 'ad got the dog back with them, and that the landlord 'ad said 'e wasn't the one. "But 'e said as he thought the collar was his," ses Sam. "'Ow do you account for that?"

"Old legends of the monkish page, Traditions of the saint and sage, Tales that have the rime of age, And Chronicles of Eld." Nor was this all.

"I felt I must see you all once more before I died," said her uncle, simply. "Just a flying visit I meant it to be, but your father and mother won't hear of my going back just yet." "Of course not," said Ethel, who was helping the silent Mrs. Spriggs to lay supper. "When I talked of going your father 'eld me down in my chair," continued the veracious Mr. Price. "Quite right, too," said the girl.
A missionary society had been organized in Indianapolis, in which Ovid Butler was the leading spirit, and such men as Joseph Bryant, and Matthew McKeever, brothers-in-law to Alexander Campbell, together with Jonas Hartzell, Cyrus McNeely, of Hopedale, Ohio, and Eld.
