The innkeeper lounged at the ale-house door, thin and peaked as his fellows; there was no good living for any man in those parts, by reason of the over-lord who sore oppressed them. A little man, keen-eyed and restless, holding a lean and sorry horse by the bridle, was talking eagerly. "Nay, 'tis true eno', and three crows saw I this very day on the churchyard wall it bodes ill to some of us."
"What matters it?" said he then, philosophically, "the king hath rings eno' on his fingers not to miss one for an hour or so, and I dare not send any one else with it. Marry, I must plunge my head in cold water, to get rid of the fumes of the wine."
To Jujubes, who went in like a cushion no matter where you prodded him, how describe the feel of a taut muscle, the mounting swell of it, the resistance, and the small, almost impalpable ripple and throb under the skin?

Eno and Humphrey had been complained of because their insistence upon what they considered their rights had caused disturbance in the Windsor church.
"The saints be praised! for I am hungered," observed the archbishop, piously: "but, sooth to say, my cook at the More far excelleth what we can hope to find at the board of my brother. He hath some faults, our Warwick! Hasty and careless, he hath not thought eno' of the blessings he might enjoy, and many a poor abbot hath daintier fare on his humble table."
And if it be, on consideration, wise to recall from the family of Woodville your grants of lands and lordships, take from your Warwick who, rich in his king's love, hath eno' to spare take the double of what you would recall. Oh, be frank with me, be true, be steadfast, Edward, and dispose of my lands, whenever you would content a favourite."

"Nay, they were light-footed eno' when they saw what was to do, and left us three to die like rats in a hole." Then eagerly: "Hast thou any bread?" He shook his head. "Nay, I came here seeking some. Art thou hungry?"
"Zizel," read Graeme slowly "There is bad news. Amadou your father. Zebu has bolted. Zeta we fear the smash will be a bad one. Eno ?" "My partner's initials they certify the wire," said Pixley hoarsely. And they looked soberly at one another and very pitifully at the broken man before them. "Don't take it too hard, Pixley," said Graeme quietly, laying a friendly hand on the other's shoulder.
Never blush, thou shalt win the scars yet. So thou hast a letter from thy father?" "It is here, noble lord." "And why," said the earl, cutting the silk with his dagger "why hast thou so long hung back from presenting it? But I need not ask thee. These uncivil times have made kith and kin doubt worse of each other than thy delay did of me. Sir Guy's mark, sure eno'! Brave old man!
