The Duchess of Valentinois withdrew to La Motte-Feuilly, and for the seven years remaining of her life was never seen other than in mourning; her very house was equipped with sombre, funereal furniture, and so maintained until her end, which supports the view that she had conceived affection and respect for the husband of whom she had seen so little.
He left the room, and returned in a few moments fully equipped for the journey. "Let us start," he said. His tone was decided and imperative, his movements quick and full of energy. That was wholly like him, once he had decided on his course.
"I reckon Samson don't need no fotched-on help ter make folks acknowledge him." "Every man needs his chance. He can be a great painter but that's the least part of it.

Upon several occasions attacks of the Zeppelins had been beaten off with these guns, though, up to date, none had been brought down. But now there had been perfected a new anti-aircraft gun.
The 'primrose way' leads somewhere else, and it may be walked on 'delicately. But if we need shoes of iron and brass, we may pretty well guess the kind of road we have before us. If a man is equipped with such coverings on his feet, depend upon it that there will be use for them before he gets to the end of his day's journey.
