"Your father did wish it, didn't he?" The mention of her father so startled Laura that the tears rushed to her eyes, and she dropped her face for a moment on Mrs. Fountain's hand. When she lifted it she was no longer conscious that Helbeck stood behind his sister's chair, looking down upon them both. "Yes always, dear. Do you remember what a good nurse he was? so much better than I?"
Within what fountain's craggy cell Delights the goddess Health to dwell?
Then, going a little farther, Ceres would, perhaps, come to a fountain, gushing out of a pebbly hollow in the earth, and would dabble with her hand in the water. Behold, up through its sandy and pebbly bed, along with the fountain's gush, a young woman with dripping hair would arise, and stand gazing at Mother Ceres, half out of the water, and undulating up and down with its ever-restless motion.
Lord Delacour was with me at Harrowgate in the days of his courtship: he knows the charming views that you have been taking about Knaresborough and Fountain's Abbey, and all those places. I will answer for it, he remembers them a hundred times better than I do. And, my love, I assure you he is a better judge of drawing than many whom we saw ogling Venus rising from the sea, in the Orleans gallery.
While waiting for the train, Colonel George Baylor, the famous Captain of Texas Rangers, chided Fountain for not wearing a cord to fasten his pistol to his belt, as then did all the Rangers, to prevent its loss from the scabbard in a running fight; and he finished by detaching his own cord, and looping one end to Fountain's belt and the other to his pistol.

'But ne'er the warrior's evil fate allowed His steps that fountain's charmed verge to gain.
Still I desire to go to Wittemburg that I may drink at the fountain's head, and listen to the words which fall from the Doctor's own lips." "Young man," said the stranger, turning a pair of dark, flashing eyes upon Eric, "be assured that if you drink at the Fountain Head the pure spring from which Dr Martin is wont to drink, you will do well that is, the Word of God, the Holy Scriptures.
"My dear girl, then you won't marry that shopkeeper there?" "What need of names, still less of epithets? I will marry no friend of hers." "Ah! now you are my brother's daughter again." "No, I love you no better than I did this morning; but the " Celestial happiness diffused itself over old Fountain's face, and Lucy glided back to the piano just as the quadrille ended. "Give me your arm, Mr.
I love bloodshed to hear of." "Well, now, I don't think that can be Miss Fountain's taste, to look at her."
"Why, he taaks i' church as thoo God Awmighty were on the pulpit stairs gi-en him his worrds!" said the cow-man, with the natural distaste of all preachers for diatribes not their own; and Laura, when she wandered the fields with him, would drive him on to say more and worse. Mr. Bayley, on the other hand, had found a new pleasure in his visits to the farm-since Miss Fountain's arrival.
