It was empty, save for a large cask, bound with iron hoops, and out of the cask a voice was saying entreatingly, 'For goodness' sake, brother, fetch me some water; I am dying of thirst! The prince, who was very tender-hearted, brought some water at once, and pushed it through a hole in the barrel; and as he did so one of the iron hoops burst.

One evening the scholars were to give a concert, and Edgar said they had better not take Frolic, lest he should bark; but Lucy answered, "O, let us take the poor little thing; it loves music better than any thing. I sometimes think it will sing itself, some day, instead of barking, and be one of your best scholars;" and the dog looked so entreatingly at Edgar, that he consented to take it.

"I'm not I want to be with you just the same." He shook his head. "I can't take you with me," he said decisively. "Why not?" She caught hold of his arm entreatingly. "You are not the same Mary Ann to other people. You are a somebody. Before you were a nobody. Nobody cared or bothered about you you were no more than a dead leaf whirling in the street."

I was aroused about 9.30 P.M., by uproar in adjacent hut: one husband had returned in a bellicose condition and whacked his wives, and their squarks and squalls, instead of acting as a warning to the other ladies, stimulate the silly things to go on coo-ooing louder and more entreatingly than ever, so that their husbands might come home and whack them too, I suppose, and whenever the unmitigated hardness of my plank rouses me I hear them still coo-ooing.

"Let me get a wet handkerchief." "No, no. Don't move. I.... I don't want you to move." Unconsciously, Sally gave a little sigh. It was all so easy, so much a question of his being content with whatever she gave, that the adventure was fading. It was ceasing to amuse her. "That's enough," she said. "Now I'm going home." She did not move, and Gaga's clasp tightened. "No," he murmured entreatingly.

"Heah, massa cap'n!" answered Solon close it hand. "Ise brung it jus' in time." "What can you do with a rope, Raymond?" asked Donald. "Make an effort to save her with the help of that lightning-rod." "You risk your own life, and it is worth far more than hers," Donald said entreatingly. "Stay a moment, captain," said Mr. Dinsmore, "they are bringing a ladder."

Once more they rested entreatingly upon the doctor's face. "Something else in your pocket?" The doctor continued drawing forth the articles one by one till he came to a large worn pocketbook. "This?" With an effort the head nodded an affirmation. From the innermost pocket he drew a little photograph of a young girl. A light came into the eyes of the dying man.

In passing the window he caught hold of the coverlet that hung over it; and down it fell, and the bright sunlight streamed in. A cry of surprise, which soon changed to indignation, burst from the children. "Mother," exclaimed Sophy, entreatingly, "I did it to keep out the cold, and to make the day seem shorter."

If any trouble is to come of your drive, I want it over as soon as possible, and the sooner I show myself in Sawyer, the more satisfied I shall feel." "But the chances are that the matter will drop through if you keep out of sight for a day or two," persisted Bob, almost entreatingly. "And I don't want it to drop through.

Do not allude to this any more. It cannot be. How can I meet him, whom I have not seen since the days of Tilsit? Who can ask me to go to Dresden, to stand there as a courtier at the door of an arrogant victor, and mingle with the crowd of his trainbearers?" "Your majesty, the Emperor of Austria will also go to Dresden," said Hardenberg, entreatingly.
