We cannot spare one particle of light. The ripening seed must stand close beneath the glass, and however fierce the sunshine no blind may be interposed. It is likely that the mother-plant will be burnt up quite certain that it will be much injured.
At length the doctor arrived the same gentleman who had attended poor Fred in his narrow escape from drowning. He made his examination, and found that one arm was broken, and the neck so injured that he shook his head, and whispered to Mr Inglis that the bones were dislocated; and in reply to the inquiry whether there was any hope, he shook his head again.
Let us go at once, therefore, and see what has become of the boy Prince, for if he is not destroyed by this time I will admit he cannot be injured by any of the magic arts which I have at my command." He left the room, accompanied by Klik, who had now rejoined his master, and by Rinkitink riding upon Bilbil.
They, on the other hand, judge that no man is to be esteemed our enemy that has never injured us; and that the partnership of the human nature is instead of a league. And that kindness and good-nature unite men more effectually and with greater strength than any agreements whatsoever; since thereby the engagements of men's hearts become stronger than the bond and obligation of words.
It is, however, highly sympathetic to injured and sick companions, and this feeling seems common to all the apes. No human being could show more tender care of wounded or helpless companions than has often been seen in members of this affectionate tribe of animals.

You only talk." "I only talk!" cried the injured Max; his voice went up to Heaven appealing against parental injustice. "Has he ever in his life been down into the slums and spent whole days there, as I have?
Something like a groan escaped from the lips of the injured cowboy. He looked as if he might tumble from the saddle at any instant. "Sure we can!" said Larkin doggedly. "Come, men! Let's move on." "Well, good luck!" said Huntington carelessly. And then, as if on second thought: "But see here!
"I wish I did; but that letter was written on the evening of the 8th, after the Virginia drew out of the fight and came back to Norfolk." "Were any of our brave fellows injured?" asked Mrs. Allison. "Oh, yes. Buchanan himself was wounded, and treacherously too. When the Congress struck her flag and our boats went alongside to take possession of her, she opened fire on us again.
The action brought warm color to her cheeks. He was trying to cheer her, of course, but Ned would not have liked it. When the doctor had left, Mrs. White told the major that her son's hip was hurt. "And that does take so long to mend," she lamented. "The hip is such a network of ligaments." Acting on the doctor's advice, the injured young man was made comfortable in the library for the night.
