He looked into his honest eyes: "Oh!" he said, "you are younger than I." Schulz laughed aloud and spoke of his old body and his infirmities. "Ta, ta, ta!" said Christophe, "I don't mean that; I know what I am saying. It is true, isn't it, Kunz?" Kunz agreed emphatically. Schulz tried to find the same indulgence for his piano. "It has still some beautiful notes," he said timidly.

The penal statutes of Rome, as Gibbon emphatically remarks, "formed a very small portion of the Code and the Pandects; and in all judicial proceedings, the life or death of the citizen was determined with less caution and delay than the most ordinary question of covenant or inheritance."

Sacho's thin little legs trotted through the water and led the way into a different passage from the one by which they had entered. They swam slowly after him and breathed easier when they had left the golden domed chamber where their wicked enemy sat enthroned. "Well, how do you like him?" asked Sacho with a laugh.

He was the most wonderful athlete, and he loved dogs especially Polly's dogs in fact he was altogether perfect in her eyes but she couldn't imagine tying up his letters in baby blue ribbons and keeping them in her top drawer. And Lois, who was quite extravagantly fond of Frank Preston, would have repudiated and emphatically denied any suggestion of his being a suitor.

"He looks rather spindlin', but then he's bigger than I am, and he might lick me, after all." I desire to say emphatically that Sam was strictly honest, and never for a moment thought of appropriating any of the money to his own use.
