The centuries dropped like autumn leaves in one's road, and one was not fined for running over them too fast.

Especially the sixteenth century ran riot in sensuous worship.

Floud, to take it in such a sporting way, because many people in the past had tried to make all sorts of nasty rows when her pets had happened to kill their kittens. Brother said, yes; Mr. Floud took the whole thing in a true sporting way, and he hoped the pack would soon be well enough to hunt again.

Adams recognized it at once as the tree they had passed on the hunt, shortly after turning from their path to follow the herd of elephants. Berselius was still leading them straight, and soon they would come to the crucial point the spot where they had turned at right angles to follow the elephants. Would Berselius remember and turn, or would he get confused and go on in a straight line?

They fished for it in the streams; they dug for it in the earth; they drove the Indians to hunt for it also until the poor redmen learned to hate the very sound of the word gold, and believed that this was all the white men lived for, cared for or worked for; holding up a piece of this hated gold the Indians would say, one to another: "Behold the Christian's god!"

"I think that I can promise you that they will, my lord. I have been making inquiries among the villagers, and find that the swamp in the river bed abounds with hippopotami." "How do you hunt them on foot?" "No, my lord.

He went back to the computer happy but frightened. He couldn't make excuses; he had to see her. Don't panic, he told himself. Just stay for a couple of hours and go to Deweys for a Friday night drink with the boys. Go home smelling of Guinness and cigarettes . . . He was skidding, losing control. He plunged into the hunt for the missing money with renewed determination.

"Merry it is in the green forést, Among the leavés green, Whenas men hunt east and west With bows and arrowés keen, "For to raise the deer out of their denne, Such sights have oft been seen; As by three yemen of the north countree: By them it is, I mean. "The one of them hight Adam Bell, The other Clym o' the Clough; The third was Willyam of Cloudeslee, An archer good enough.

Less energy on his part would have been more satisfactory, but we bore with him until he grew so fond of this semi-daily hunt that he began to bring 'old Dunne' without being told.
