Before Joseph could break away he heard that the priests stirred up the people against Jesus, giving it forth against him that he had come to Jerusalem to burn down the Temple, and would set up another built without the help of hands, of what materials he did not know, but not of stones nor wood, yet a Temple that will last for ever, the mason shouted after Joseph, who had stuck his spurs again into his horse and was riding full tilt towards a hill about half-a-mile from the city walls.
Battista thereupon asked Barto whether he would try that chance. The answer was a vacuous shake of the head, accompanied by an expression of unutterable mournfulness. 'There's no other way, pursued Battista, 'unless you jump into the Adige, and swim down half-a-mile under water; and cats hate water eh, my comico?
"I say that I resolved to forego my dinner and to push to the head of the small valley, where I felt pretty sure of discovering the hogs. I soon found that I was on the right scent, for I had scarcely walked half-a-mile in the direction of the small plum-tree we found there the other day when a squeak fell on my ear. `Ho, ho, said I, `there you go, my boys; and I hurried up the glen.
On a Sabbath evening, he said, I shall be able to carry him to my house secretly. The distance is about half-a-mile. But to carry a swooning man half-a-mile up a crooked and steep path among rocks will take all my strength.
Carrai! they'd smell the nasty witch half-a-mile off, and so discover her whereabouts to their masters." "True," returns Cypriano, seeing the plan he has proposed would not do. "In that way they would find her, no doubt." "And if they didn't," interposed Ludwig, speaking from a sentiment of humanity, "it would be dreadful." "Dreadful! what do you mean?" asks Cypriano, looking puzzled.
John, which communicates with Lac Pontchartrain, is about thirty feet, and the distance one mile. This fall is certainly inconsiderable; but I apprehend that it would be sufficient to drain the streets effectually, if proper attention were directed to that object. The city extends only half-a-mile back, and, including the fauxbourgs, about two miles along the river.
Godfrey looked in the direction pointed out. It was not a fleet, as the distracted Tartlet had said; but he was only mistaken about the quantity. In fact, there was a small vessel gliding through the water, now very calm, about half-a-mile from the coast, so as to double Flag Point. "And why should they be cannibals?" asked Godfrey, turning towards the professor.
With this concluding piece of advice, he pointed to the fall, which plunged over a ledge of rock about half-a-mile ahead of them, and which was distinguishable by a small column of white spray that rose out of it. As Charley beheld it his spirits rose, and forgetting for a moment the circumstances that called him there, he cried out "I'll run it before you, Jacques. Hurrah!
Each time the guide replied by a single word "Cossack" spoken almost in a whisper, and following by his placing finger on lip. Half-a-mile further, the guide motioned to McKay to dismount and leave his horse, repeating the caution "Cossack!" in the same low tone of voice.
Harkless come out the yard again, he was near out o' sight, and we see him take across the road to the wedge-woods, near half-a-mile up. Somebody else with him then looked like a kid. Must 'a' cut acrost the field to join him. They're fur enough towards home by this." "Did Miss Helen shake hands with you four or five times?" asked Briscoe, chuckling. "No. Why?" "Because Harkless did.
