"He wanted to go out for a cold plunge and a morning stroll, and then asked the sergeant where he could get a good riding horse. He's not so keen about strolls these days."

On some cold day, when the sun is shining, visit all the orchards of which you know, and see if in one or more you cannot find a good-sized, gray, black, and white bird, which keeps to the topmost branch of a certain tree. Look at him carefully through your glasses, and if his beak is hooked, like that of a hawk, you may know that you are watching a northern shrike, or butcher bird.
I'm not famous for my voice," admitted the boy. "Just so's you can sing something the cows like, it'll be all right," Steve told him. "If anything should happen, you have to sing.

"No, are you? It is simply absurd. I have always regarded that Raymond movement as fanatical. You know cousin Rachel keeps us posted about it."
Bannon is consumptive so far gone, it's a wonder he didn't die years ago: for months I've been haunted by the thought that it's only the evil in him keeps him alive.
But thou shalt live in thine own degraded identity, and shalt thyself be conscious how degraded thou art. Another suggestion might be that the words 'But be thyself are equivalent to 'Be but thyself.
