To think of this divine woman going down to lonely death for him a strong man; to picture her crouching behind that gateway pillar and touching him as he passed, while he, the thrice accursed fool, knew nothing till too late; to know that he had gone to Euston and not to Paddington; to remember the matchless strength and beauty of the love which he had lost, and that face which he should never see again!
Then she walked quickly to the gateway, looked out, returned to the corridor, unloosening and taking off her wedding-ring from her finger as she walked. Here she paused, then slowly and deliberately rearranged the chairs and adjusted the gay-colored rugs that draped them, and quietly reëntered her chamber.
Separated from such homes, they had agreed to make this one after the same spiritual pattern, barring the parental presence and teaching. The next day after breakfast, took leave of my kind cottage hosts, exchanging good wishes for mutual happiness. Went out of the amphitheatre of Strathspey by a gateway into another, surrounded by mountains less lofty and entirely covered with heather.
Thus he was surrounded by womenkind, who forgave him all faults on account of his appreciation of sentimentality. The house is distinctly picturesque. The southern half is of red brick, and is surrounded by a high wall, in which is a gateway with tall red-brick piers surmounted by stone balls.
Next morning early she went through the French Pass a narrow gateway of rock, between bold headlands so narrow, in fact, that it seemed no wider than a street. The current tore through there like a mill-race, and the boat darted through like a telegram.
Adjoining the gateway on the left hand is the brewery, formerly known as the "Hundred Men's Hall," because a hundred of the poorest men in Winchester were daily entertained there at dinner, and, as the repast was provided on a bountiful scale, the guests always had ample provisions to carry home to their families.
The front of the crowd had already reached the place and was turning towards the iron gates. The two women went quickly to the hall, and, looking down the spiral staircase to the marble pavement of the entrance three stories below, saw the men swarming in through the wide gateway and doorway by dozens.
Lawrence almost anywhere was to leave human habitation. The hamlet of St. Elphège was part of the half-wild parish of Répentigny. The cause of its existence was its position some miles up the Assumption, as a gateway of many smaller rivers tributary to the latter, which itself was tributary to the River of Jesus; and that in turn, less than a mile further on, to the vast St Lawrence.
The evening was spent at home in various talk, and I find Mr. a very agreeable companion, and a young man of thought and information, with a self-respecting character, and I think him a safe person to live with. This St. James's Place is in close vicinity to St. James's Palace, the gateway and not very splendid front of which we can see from the corner.
The man was innocent of any evil intent on this occasion, but Ravenshaw would have quarrelled with an angel just then. "What are you doing here? Be off!" he said sternly. The Indian either did not or would not understand, and the old man, seizing him by the arm, thrust him violently through the gateway.
