Women trained to concentrate all their thoughts on family life are apt to think when their children are grown up, their loved ones gone, their servants trained to keep the domestic machinery in motion that their work in life is done, that no one needs now their thought and care, quite forgetting that the hey-day of woman's life is on the shady side of fifty, when the vital forces heretofore expended in other ways are garnered in the brain, when their thoughts and sentiments flow out in broader channels, when philanthropy takes the place of family selfishness, and when from the depths of poverty and suffering the wail of humanity grows as pathetic to their ears as once was the cry of their own children.
Four men carrying a box of muskets ran against me on a narrow plank, and had not my good friend the doctor seized me I should have plunged headlong into the river. The hey-day in my blood was tame; I had no desire to fall into l'Amour at that season. At eleven there came an invitation to lunch with the governor at two. "How is this?"
"Where you took my son afterwards," Lady Castlewood said, very angry, and turning red. "I thank you, sir, for giving him such company. Beatrix," she said in English, "I forbid you to touch Mr. Esmond. Come away, child come to your room. "Hey-day!" says my lord, who was standing by the fireplace indeed he was in the position to which he generally came by that hour of the evening "Hey-day!
Terrible, indeed, was the sight to one who had sincerely loved Richard Luttrell the strong man, full of lusty health and vigour, desirous of life, fortunate in the possession, of all that makes life worth living only a few short hours before; now silent, motionless for ever struck down in the hey-day of youth and strength, and by a brother's hand!
Comparatively speaking, very little has come down to us from the hey-day of the English drama. That which we possess is but an exceedingly small portion of the productions of that epoch. The dramas handed down to us are mostly purged of those passages which threatened to give offence in print. The dramatists did not mean to write books.
Let us hope that the instinct waich prompts this involuntary appeal for mercy, somewhat helps to secure its blessings. It is thus also with one who, in the hey-day of the youthful heart, has lived without thought or prayer a tumultuous life of uproar and riot a long carnival of the passions the warm blood suppressing the cool thought, and making the reckless heart impatient of consideration.
Why, out of spite to all of us one of them. The other, because of your independent fortune. I wish your good grandfather had not left what he did so much in your own power, as I may say. But little did he imagine his beloved grand-daughter would have turned upon all her friends as she has done! What has Mr. Solmes to hope for, if you are prepossessed! Hey-day! Is this you, cousin Clary!
Ford had been born in Illinois; and so, something better than a third of a century earlier, had the president. Moreover, Mr. Colbrith had, in the hey-day of his youth, shared rooms with the elder Ford in the fresh-water university which had later numbered the younger Ford among its alumni.
"Hey-day," she says, with a little, idle yawn; "how I do wish everybody would not go out shooting, all at once. I think they might take it by turns. But all men are selfish; they never consider how lonely we may be." "I don't know," says Dulce, candidly; "I am only sure of this, that I want them always." Portia says nothing. "Well, certainly, at times they are amusing," says Mrs.
Needless to say, the relations between master and apprentices and master and journeymen were rigidly fixed down to the minutest detail. The system was thoroughly patriarchal in its character. In the hey-day of the guilds, every apprentice and most of the journeymen regarded their actual condition as a period of preparation which would end in the glories of mastership.
