We hate the man and all his breed simply because he outclasses us at our own game." "You mean he outplunders us," contradicted Kirk. "It comes to much the same thing, young son, though High Finance is a prettier name for the pastime. He gathers in millions to our thousands not only because he is a naughty, wicked man, but because of his greater caliber and range.
Then has he completed his cycle by turning back upon his history, laying hold of his cause, and willing his own being in the will of the only I AM. This is the rounding, re-creating, unifying of the man. This is religion, and all that gathers not with this, scatters abroad." "And then," said Drew, with some eagerness, "lawfully comes the question, 'Shall I, or shall I not live for ever?"
Probably other jokers have emulated the original joker; probably if the truth were known there have been a dozen such; but the country people will have it that there is only one Belled Buzzard a bird that bears a charmed life and on his neck a never silent bell. Squire Gathers regarded it a most untoward thing that the Belled Buzzard should have come just at this time.
"You have seen him," he repeated, when they sat once more in the cheerless room. "Now pronounce on him." The other answered: "I have seen a wonderful body but the mind, Father Victor?" "It is as simple as that of a child his thoughts run as clear as spring water." "Ah, but they are swift thoughts.

They are noble tears that do not fall to earth, but ascend up to God's throne. Yea, the Lord gathers them in His vials, like costly wine.

I should say: "I have smoked my fourpenny shag in the sanded bars of Fleet Street, and I have puffed my twopenny Manilla in the gilded balls of the Criterion; I have quaffed my foaming beer of Burton where Islington's famed Angel gathers the little thirsty ones beneath her shadowing wings, and I have sipped my tenpenny ordinaire in many a garlic-scented salon of Soho.
"I I thought " "Quite right, my boy; I intend you shall know all about it. You see it resembles the works of a watch.... Now, when I touch this spring the receiver opens and gathers in certain psychic waves which emanate from the subconscious personality of well, let us say you, for example!... And now I touch this button.
Or, when autumn has lifted up in the fields his head adorned with mellow fruits, how does he rejoice, while he gathers the grafted pears, and the grape that vies with the purple, with which he may recompense thee, O Priapus, and thee, father Sylvanus, guardian of his boundaries!
Perpetua moving amongst the carnations and hollyhocks in her soft white cambric frock, gathers a few of the former in a languid manner to place in the bosom of her frock. There they rest, a spot of blood color upon their white ground. Lady Baring, on the death of her elder brother, had left town for the seclusion of her country home, carrying Perpetua with her.
Now the man who has his heart on his sleeve, and a good whirling weathercock of a brain, who reckons his life as a thing to be dashingly used and cheerfully hazarded, makes a very different acquaintance of the world, keeps all his pulses going true and fast, and gathers impetus as he runs, until, if he be running towards anything better than wildfire, he may shoot up and become a constellation in the end.
