Never agin never agin will such a seen glow and grow before mine eyes, till the streets of the New Jerusalem open before my vision. Beyend that wide Plaza, that long basin of clear sparklin' water, dotted all over its glowin' bosom with fairy-like gondolas, and gondolers, dressed in all the colors of the rainbow, or picturesque launches, with their gay freight of happy sightseers.
Well, we stayed here for quite a spell, Whitfield and Tirzah Ann buildin' castles higher than Castle Rest, on the foundations of their rosy future, underlaid with youth and glowin' hope the best-lookin' underpinnin' you can find anywhere. And little Delight rolled on the green moss and built her rosy castles in the illumined present, as children do.
He blinds you wi' sparks, an' fire-works, his words are that hot an' glowin', an' he fair dumbfounders you wi' fine soundin' sentences an' lang words. He's a corker I can tell you! But here, they are gaun to begin," he broke off hurriedly as the Prime Minister rose to his feet. Then in a sly whisper, he added: "Just you pay attention, an' tell me after if you can tell how we hae been dune.
The eye is a bright orange color, an' so shinin' that flashes from it look like sparks of red-yellow fire. I've never seen them at night, but folks who have, say that in the dark the eyes look like glowin' charcoal. "If I had to take a walk through the St. Lucia woods, I'd put on armor, I would!
To-morrer you'll be goin round complainin about your liver!" I sot up a spell by the kitchen fire readin Lewis Napoleon's "Life of Julius Caesar." What a reckless old cuss he was! Yit Lewis picturs him in glowin cullers. Caesar made it lively for the boys in Gaul, didn't he? He slewd one million of citizens, male and female Gauls and Gaulusses and then he sold another million of 'em into slavery.
The hull of the west did look, for all the world, like a great, shinin' white gate, open, and inside all full of radience, rose, and yellow, and gold light, a streamin' out, and changin', and glowin', movin' about, as clouds will.
Wonderful effects as I ever see. And I wuz a-lookin' at a picter there so glowin' and beautiful that it seemed to hold in it the very secret of summer. The heart fire and glow of summer shone through its fine atmosphere. And sez I, "Josiah, did you ever see anything like it?" "Oh, yes," sez he; "it's quite fair." "Fair!" sez I; "can't you say sunthin' more than that?"
And though Josiah squirmed some when I told him Lodema wuz approachin' and would be there that very night or the next day still the cloud wore away and melted off in the glowin' mellowness of the hot tea and cream, the delicious oysters and other good things. My pardner, though, as he often says, is not a epicack, still he duz enjoy good vittles dretful well and appreciates 'em.
'You can't take ten pounds of jewelry from a woman without reducin' her weight. She must have had a pint o' diamonds. "'Pictures an' glowin' accounts of the villa were printed in all the papers, an' soon a millionaire wrote that it was just the place he was lookin' for. I closed the deal with him. It was Bill Warburton, who used to go to school with me up there on the hills.
And says he, with a dreamy look way off into the glowin' western sky, "My mamma Cicely said it would swing right down out of heaven some day, and would open, and I could walk in; and don't you believe mamma will stand just inside of the gate as she used to, and say, 'Here comes my own little boy'?"
