Tis worst of all when it licks thee first," whispered the bashful one with the golden-red hair. She would fain have stolen between them so softly. And all at once the swain recollected the snake, which was as slender, and supple, and quick, and sparkling as the girl who lay there on the hill-side, and wept and made fun at the same time and looked oddly alert and wary.
I found nothing worth notice in the church, and was about to leave it again, when I caught a glimpse of a pretty view through a side door, and stopped to admire it. The churchyard formed the foreground, and below it the hill-side sloped away gently into the plain, over which the sun was setting in full glory.
She just thinks she'll pay me out for being rough with her the other day she's got an idea that she'll vex me, and make me want to see her. She's right, I AM vexed! and I DO want to see her!" It was mid-morning, and the sun blazed down upon the hill-side with the scorching breath of a volcano.

"Where is Pomona?" I said, endeavoring to stand on the hill-side of the deck.

"You infernal little ruffian!" he roared at him; and the sound of his voice was enough for the dog; he began to scale the hill-side toward the house without a moment's stay. The children still crouched together, and Westover could hardly make them understand that they were in his keeping when he bent over them and bade them not be frightened.
There was just a slight mist around them, but the whole country below, though chaotic, was visible, and the lights on the hill-side, from La Turbie down to the sea-board, were in plain sight. "Our troubles," Hunterleys remarked, as they glided off, "seem to be over." "Maybe," Lane replied grimly. "Mine seem to be only just beginning!"

They love to visit us in early autumn, and are vastly charmed with the honeysuckle in the hedges, and the corn turning yellow, and the rivers singing in the sunlight, and the purple on the hill-side.
