I'll stand by you, precious; I'll hold your hand; and, when the time comes " It came then! The gateless archway was reached at last, and the thing she had been planning all along now became possible.
Canada contended for an interpretation of this wording which would give her a harbour at the head of one of the fiords which ran far inland, while the United States, following the usual international doctrine that a disadvantage to your neighbour must be an advantage to yourself, insisted that its spite fence should be as high and as gateless as possible.
Shading my eyes, I read the tin sign swinging in the wind from a rod nailed at right angles to a sagging post at its gateless yard. "Swan Tavern." The name thrilled. I was no longer a twentieth-century person, but a lady of other days, and if a coach and four with outriders had appeared I would have stepped in it with delight.
The atom of an atom, Particle of this particle the earth, That with its million kindred worlds doth spin Like motes within the universal light. What if I sin am lost do crack my life Against the gateless walls of Fate's decree? Is the world fouler for a gnat's corpse? Nay, The ocean, is it shallower for the drop It leaves upon a blade of grass?"
Screens of bamboos and woven rushes, with wide gateless openings in their midst, mark the boundaries of the three divisions of the pleasure-grounds.

On striking the outlying boundary of Dandaloo, he dismounted to slip a rail. After that he was in and out of the saddle, his way leading through numerous gateless paddocks before it brought him up to the homestead. This, a low white wooden building, overspread by a broad verandah from a distance it looked like an elongated mushroom stood on a hill.
"Very well," said Shelton; he would have her longer to himself! The road led up and up a hill, and from the top a vision of Saxonia lay disclosed in waves of wood and pasture. Their way branched down a gateless glade, and Shelton sidled closer till his knee touched the mare's off-flank. Antonia's profile conjured up visions.
