At home a while with my wife, and so to my office, where till 8 o'clock, and then home to look over some Brampton papers, and my uncle's accounts as Generall-Receiver of the County for 1647 of our monthly assessment, which, contrary to my expectation, I found in such good order and so, thoroughly that I did not expect, nor could have thought, and that being done, having seen discharges for every farthing of money he received, I went to bed late with great quiett.
"I am really rather glad to have met you," he remarked presently. "Can you give me any tip regarding this diamond of Wilbraham's? You know its value to the tenth part of a farthing, I have no doubt." Kelly paused to glare at him distractedly, "Oh, curse the diamond!" he said, "It's Mrs. Burke I'm thinking of." Kieff's thin lips curled contemptuously. "A woman!" he said, and snapped his fingers.
"I know that two or three do; and and, Mr. Trelyon, do you think you could coax that little dog over the stream again? You see he has come back again he can't find his way home." Mr. Trelyon called to the dog: it came down to the river's side, and whined and shivered on the brink. "Do you care a brass farthing about the little beast?" he said to Wenna.
They know that now the marchesa is come she will grind and harry them, and seize her share of grapes, and corn, and olives, to the uttermost farthing. Silvestro, her steward, a timid, pitiful man, can be got over by soft words, and the sight of want and misery. Not so the marchesa.
I have sold nothing since morning I have harangued the snow. I have played the flute to the hurricane. I have not pocketed a farthing; and now, to-night, beggars drop in. Horrid place! There is battle, struggle, competition between the fools in the street and myself. They try to give me nothing but farthings. I try to give them nothing but drugs. Well, to-day I've made nothing.
He came, not to be ministered unto, but to minister; to pour out of His life into the lives of others; to see what He could do to make others blest; and "to give his life a ransom for many." Not merely to give the little pittance that He could spare and not know it any more than one would miss the farthing with which he would buy his ride on the street car, but to give His life a ransom for many.
For a full satisfaction given by this man for harms done by another may neither obtain the love of the person offended, nor the smallest gift which the person offending hath not deserved. Suppose I owe to this man ten thousand talents, and another should pay him every farthing, there remaineth over and above by that complete satisfaction not one single halfpenny for me.
Never think of that more in the way of penitence." "In the way of reformation though, I hope, I shall all my life," said Harry. "One comfort I have never been in a passion since." "But, then, a rasonable passion's allowable: I wouldn't give a farthing for a man that couldn't be in a passion on a proper occasion. I'm passionate myself, rasonably passionate, and I like myself the better for it."
He pays honestly for all he wants for the mess, but I see that if we entrust the charge to you, we shall not have to draw for a farthing upon our treasure chest. And how is your arm feeling?" "I have almost forgotten that I have an arm," Sankey said. "I suppose the excitement of the thing drove out the rheumatics." "We might have some supper," Chris suggested.
Crump without a single farthing of premium, though Jemmy would have made me take four hundred pounds for it; but this I was above: Crump had served me faithfully, and have the shop he should. We were speedily installed in our fine house: but what's a house without friends?
