When one looked up at the house, with its back against the woods, staring with its surly window-eyes, one saw the resoluteness of the intrenched Kavanagh put into visible form. The dogs came racing to meet Harlan. They knew him as their mistress's friend. She was sitting on the broad porch-rail when he rode up, and he swung his horse close and patted her cheek as one greets a child.
"Dear me, Vardon, what a grand time you fellows have, travelling all over the country in this manner, and doing nothing but playing golf on the very best courses," is the kind of remark that often greets me when I have just returned from playing in one match or tournament, and am due to start for another in a day or two.
He is above the average height, strong and well proportioned, and his quick and energetic step and wide-awake appearance proclaim him of New England birth. As he nears a house in the suburbs, a shout of welcome greets him, and he lifts his eyes and smiles upon a group of young faces in an upper window; a moment more and the door is thrown open, and childish forms hurl themselves upon him.
Napoleon III, the representative of the highest modern civilization, progress, and refinement; Abdul-Aziz, the representative of a people by nature and training filthy, brutish, ignorant, unprogressive, superstitious and a government whose Three Graces are Tyranny, Rapacity, Blood. Here in brilliant Paris, under this majestic Arch of Triumph, the First Century greets the Nineteenth!
Leave us, Syra you shall see directly. Please read me Caesar's letter once more. Here it is." Julia unfolded the papyrus, which was of elegant quality, and began: "Hadrian to his friend Titianus, the Governor of Egypt. The deepest secrecy Hadrian greets Titianus, as he has so often done for years at the beginning of disagreeable business letters, and only with half his heart.
Häckel, it is true, mentions Strauss only in the preface of the fourth edition of his "Natural History of Creation," but here he greets "The Old Faith and the New" as the confession which he also makes, and thus gives us an express right to place him in this class, although he calls his worship of the universe religion; it is, however, a classification which his whole position compelled us to give him.
At eventide Wasserman Avenue greets its husbands with kisses, frankly delivered on its rows of front porches. Do not smile. Gautier wrote about the consolation of the arts; but, after all, he has little enough to say of that cold moment when art leaves off and heart turns to heart.
"I ne'er have drunk thy glance thy form My earthly eye has never seen, Though oft when fancy's visions warm, It greets me in some blissful dream. "Greets me, as greets the sainted seer Some radiant visitant from high, When heaven's own strains break on his ear, And wrap his soul in ecstasy."
They have come on the same pilgrimage and finding Krishna there, at once throng to see him. Vasudeva greets his old friend, Nanda, and recalls the now long-distant days when Krishna had lived with him in his house. Krishna and Balarama greet Nanda and Yasoda with loving respect, while the cowgirls are excited beyond description.
The child stirred, awakened by her sobbing. "Tanné," he cried feebly. "He will come," she said. Outside in the mist-soaked lane three toothless fisherwomen gossiped in whispers. Almost any day that you pass through the village you will see a chubby little rascal who greets you with a cheery "Bonjour" and runs away, dragging a tin horse with a broken tail.
