The same sailboat that had taken the captain up to the town in the afternoon was waiting for them at the landing place, whence, the captain, having wished them Godspeed, and having shaken Barnaby very heartily by the hand, they pushed off, and, coming about, ran away with the slant of the wind, dropping the shore and those strange beings alike behind them into the night.
He is unable to ask any one's advice, or to consult with his inferiors, and he stands alone in the solitude of his higher rank. Even the common sailor is conscious of the seriousness of the task ahead and of the adventures which may occur below seas. No loud farewells, no jolly hand, no beckoning girls are there to bid us Godspeed. Quietly and silently do we take our departure.
"Go comfort them, La Corne, and the angel of consolation go with you!" The Governor shook him by the hand and wished him Godspeed. La Corne St. Luc instantly left the house. The crowd uncovered and made way for him as they would have done for the Governor himself, as with hasty strides he passed up the Rue du Fort and on towards the Cape, where stood the mansion of the Lady de Tilly.
By noon we had passed the meadow of our night's camp. After a hasty lunch we accompanied our men a few miles farther, then said farewell and godspeed, and hurried back in order to reach home before sunset. We cooked ourselves a meal, and built ourselves a fire. About midnight we heard the sounds of horses rapidly approaching.
The flower is sweet the rain shall set aglow, The grain be rich within your garner gates Stage waits! Stage waits! and we must loosen now your hand, And miss your face's gold in all our land; But yet we know that in a little while You come again a conqueror, so smile Godspeed, not parting, and, with hearts elate, We wait. Yes, for the second time the die was cast.
Where are you off to?" "Nowhere worse luck! I mean I'm here to bid you farewell and Godspeed and what not on the eve of your departure from the British Isles." "And where, pray, am I going?"

He was waiting for her to speak; but her voice felt parched; it seemed to her as if hands of steel were gripping her throat, smothering the words she would have longed to speak. "Will you not wish me godspeed, mademoiselle?" he repeated gently. "Godspeed?" Oh! the awful irony of it all! Should God speed him to a mock trial and to the guillotine?
The house was early astir to bid Raisky Godspeed. Tushin and the young Vikentevs had come, Marfinka, a marvel of beauty, amiability and shyness. Tatiana Markovna looked sad, but she pulled herself together and avoided sentiment. "Stay with us," she said reproachfully. "You do not even know, yourself, where you are going." "To Rome, Grandmother." "What for? To see the Pope?" "To be a sculptor."
I pledge him my support as a citizen of our Republic, and I ask you to give him yours. To him, to you, to all my fellow citizens, I say, Godspeed. May God bless our country and our cause. State of the Union Address Dwight D. Eisenhower February 2, 1953 Mr. President, Mr.
"No, I came from a land that was French before I was born but which is now German, and under the beneficent rule of the great Kaiser Lorraine." "You have indeed made a great journey." "But it's to help one who needs help. I'd go if it took me to the other side of the world. The errand is sacred." "Then I wish you Godspeed upon it. You are young, and you have a good face. What you say must be true.
