Moreover, he had a sibyl to guide his steps; and as such a conductress nowadays could not be got for love nor money, it was judged most prudent to refrain from sauntering through this land of freedom, and wait with patience the return of health. At last this long-looked-for, ever-welcome stranger came.
They must find their own way back to the hotel if they mean to come! Hailing a cab outside the ground, he said: "Drive me to the Bayswater Road." His old aunts had never failed him. To them he had meant an ever-welcome visitor. Though they were gone, there, still, was Timothy! Smither was standing in the open doorway. "Mr. Soames! I was just taking the air. Cook will be so pleased." "How is Mr.
So the drummers talked with him a long time, and they had glib tongues, and the aid of the ever-welcome angels. Tóth János the poultry-dealer, who could not vote in his own name, voted as Tóth János, the potter, but he had a great sacrifice to make. The deceased potter was nick-named the "gap-toothed," because he had lost his front teeth in a brawl.

It generally dies down in September, though an occasional flowering stalk may be seen as late as October. Another very common but ever-welcome plant, for its pungent and pleasing odor, is the pennyroyal.

And he saw, from his bright throne of wide derivative glory, Hope flying forth upon her morning missions, visiting the lonesome, comforting the sorrowful, speaking cheerfully to Care, and singing in the ear of Labour: and he watched that ever-welcome friend, flitting with the gleams of light to every home, to every heart; none but gladly let her in; her tapping finger opened the very prison doors; the heavy head of Sloth rejoiced to hear her call; and every common Folly, every common Sin ay, every common Crime warmed his unconscious soul before her winning beauty.
At last we met the mail-man, that ever-welcome person on the Alaskan trail, and his track greatly lightened our labour.
