The average Londoner would have taken him for a county gentleman on a visit to the Agricultural Show at Islington, with a morning at Tattersall's as a variant. Yet, Sam Weller's extensive and peculiar knowledge of London compared with his as a freshman's with a don's of a university.
"An' it's not wan av yez Oi remimber takin' up to th' freshman's boording house." "We have changed," explained Ned Stover. "And it's the first change I have seen for a week," declared Harry Rattleton. "I'm waiting to hear from the governor." "Howld on," said the driver. "Oi want to see the mon thot hired me." He threatened to pull up, but Frank caught the whip and cracked it over the horses.
My first spring in this beautiful place! It doesn't mean so much to you, because you're a junior. You don't care." Now though her lids were lowered as she hacked at the stubby point, she was perfectly aware of the hopeful curiosity in the freshman's side glance at her. Lila despised the habit of side glances.
Life in a study with two sophomores is hard on a freshman's nerves. A few days of the rest-cure will about suit you." Martha glanced at me, for Lila was still hiding her face. "It was silly of me," she explained shyly, "but I grew so nervous when you didn't meet me that I cried and that made it worse. I watched every car and both sides of the street, and I waited till after dark.
You assert that he did not obtain, and indeed did riot aim to obtain, the honours of the University.

Now, when it's too late Thirty years ago, and more, when I was a green, frightened freshman from Vermont, he took me to his heart. He was known as the Freshman's Friend. That's what Hoddy always did take the green and frightened freshman to his heart. Probably, if he hadn't done that to me, I'd have gone back home in my lonesomeness. And then
There used to be much snapdragon growing on the walls opposite my freshman's rooms there; and I had for years taken it as the emblem of my own perpetual residence, even unto death, in my University. On the morning of the 23d I left the Observatory. I have never seen Oxford since, excepting its spires as they are seen from the railway.
She scrambled upright by means of clutching my skirt and put out a cordial hand. "Nice girl! Shake!" "Josephine!" gasped Adele in horrified rebuke. My breath was beginning to come fast over this insult to our editorial dignity when I caught sight of the freshman's face. Her cheeks were as red as ever, but she had turned white about the lips, and her eyes were really terrified.
There was the broken mirror in Dozia's room and the fact that Dozia had actually hit Shirley on the head with a hammer! "A pretty record that and made on the first night in college," Jane reflected. Undoubtedly the freshman's demand that Jane "see her at once" had to do with the outrage. And the interview would be granted, of course, that very afternoon unless Judith interfered.
His name is still remembered at the Union Debating Club, as one of the brilliant orators of his day. By the way, from having been an ardent Tory in his freshman's year, his principles took a sudden turn afterwards, and he became a liberal of the most violent order.
