"Of course I do. At least, I should say it was indirectly responsible for it." She put her hand up to hide her face. He saw that in some way incomprehensible to him, so far from shielding her, he had struck a blow. "Dr. Gardner told you that much," said he. He felt easier, somehow, in halving the responsibility with Gardner. "Yes. He told me that. But he had not seen him since October.
Meanwhile Yan took the axe to split another, but found that it ran off to one side instead of going straight down the grain. "No good," was Sam's comment. "You must keep halving each time or it will run out toward the thin pieces. You want to split shingles all winter to larn that." Ten pins were made eight inches long and a quarter of an inch thick.
Halving there would mean a drawn match between us and a drawing for choice of prizes, provided we were in the prize-winning class. A win for either of us meant the match itself. Heathcroft, in spite of the close play, was as bland and unconcerned as ever. I tried to appear likewise. As a matter of fact, I wanted to win.
"I'll get the feathers and let you do the rest," said Sam, producing a bundle of turkey-wings, laid away as stove-dusters, and then belied his own statement by getting a block of Ash and splitting it up, halving it each time till he had a pile of two dozen straight sticks about three-quarters of an inch thick.
Now a venial sin being the slightest and least of all sins being halved by taking either only the half of it, and leaving the rest or, by taking it all, and amicably halving it betwixt yourself and another person in course becomes diluted into no sin at all. The two mules acknowledged the notes by a mutual lash of their tails; but it went no further 'Twill answer by an' by, said the novice.
Give him a crust, he said, and somebody to halve it with a home-made crust baked by a wife. It was a pretty picture, but somewhat spoiled by Mrs. Tidger suggesting that, though he had spoken of halving the crust, he had said nothing about the beer. "Half of my beer wouldn't be much," said the dealer, slowly. "Not the half you would give your wife wouldn't," retorted Mrs. Tidger.
Furthermore, the abundance of simulated seeds developed by his bold halving of his model was re-enforced by a few real seeds pasted upon the lower part of the frame. "If all that don't fetch 'em," said Jared, "what will?" But the exhibition jury frowned upon this ingenuous offering.
For, between you and me, bel giovane trust a barber who has shaved the best scholars friendliness is much such a steed as Ser Benghi's: it will hardly show much alacrity unless it has got the thistle of hatred under its tail. However, the secretary is a man who'll keep his word to you, even to the halving of a fennel-seed; and he is not unlikely to buy some of your gems."
The fact remains that he recognised suddenly that halving this error was tantamount to reducing the circle to the ellipse whose eccentricity was that of the old theory, i.e. that in which the sun would be in one focus and the equant in the other. Having now fitted the ends of both major and minor axes of the ellipse, he leaped to the conclusion that the orbit would fit everywhere.
The first or forward half was hooked out from among the straw, and there was another oval distention another nest egg! The snake had discovered elsewhere a china egg, had swallowed it, and then crawled in at the knot hole, and got outside another. Escape was impossible. until the problem was solved by halving.
