Fail not to bring him to me to-morrow. Therefore, sir, be so good as to accompany me to the palace." The confidant's proposal perplexed the jeweller. "Your mistress," replied he, "must allow me to say that she has not duly considered what she requires of me.
I was invited, some time ago, to a wedding, by a jeweller whose sister had been my nurse, and whose daughter was to be married to a captain of hussars quartered here. The bridegroom had engaged several other officers to assist at the ceremony, and to partake of the fete and ball that followed.
But she'll sell them before we can get the custody of them." "Perhaps she has done that already." "Greystock says they are at Portray, and I believe they are.

She hasn't sold 'em yet, but she will."
He breathed thickly, and taking a seat sat with his hands upon his knees, looking at a fine piece of cold beef which the housekeeper had just placed upon the table. "Is Brother Clark well?" inquired the jeweller, placing a chair for him at the table and taking up his carving-knife. "Dear Brother Clark is in excellent 'ealth, I thank you," said the other, taking the proffered chair.
When he saw the jeweller, he said to him, 'Thou hast tarried long from me and hast added concern to my concern.

When the jeweller heard this, he laughed and Ali said, 'Why dost thou laugh at my words, thou in whom I rejoiced and to whom I looked for succour against the shifts of fortune? Then he sighed and wept and repeated the following verses: Many an one laughs at my weeping, whenas he looks on my pain.
We learn from the following journal, that the present expedition was undertaken at the instigation, and chiefly at the expence of Sir Edward Osborne, Knight, and Mr Richard Staper, citizens and merchants of London. Besides Fitch, the author of the narrative, Mr John Newbery, merchant, William Leedes jeweller, and James Story painter, were engaged in the expedition.
"Oh! what a man he is; what a instrument for good. Always stretching out them blessed hands of 'is to make one of the fallen a Seventh Day Primitive." "And success attends his efforts?" said the jeweller. "Success, Brother!" repeated Mr. Burge, eating rapidly and gesticulating with his knife. "Success ain't no name for it.
A poet may make his entrance into literature with small or large inventions, by carving cherry-stones or carving a colossus. Browning, the creator of men and women, the fashioner of minds, would be a sculptor of figures more than life-size rather than an exquisite jeweller; the attempt at a Perseus of this Cellini was to precede his brooches and buttons.
The young man felt assured at these words, and with a smiling countenance requested me to take a seat by him. When I had complied, he said "Prince, I am to acquaint you with what will surprise you by its singularity. "My father is a merchant jeweller, who, by his industry and professional skill, has acquired considerable property.
Scott, when pointing to the hospital built by Heriot, said, "That was built by one Heriot, you know, the jeweller, in Charles the Second's time." There was an arch simplicity in his look, at which we could hardly forbear laughing. June 23.
