It was the vacation of the long summer term; there was packing and padlocking to go each on her way, and the long dormitories rang with shrill clamor. They all had a nest to seek. Effie was already gone away with her chief crony, whose lady-mother, a distant kinswoman of our own, fancied the girl's fair countenance.

You knew Master Glaucon well?” pressed Dion, itching for a new bit of gossip. “Well,” answered the sailor, standing gazing on the child as though something held him fascinated, then shot another question. “And does the babe’s lady-mother prosper?” “She is passing well in body, kyrie, but grievously ill in mind. Hera give her a release from all her sorrow!”

I now no longer secured her exclusive regard at the evening fireside or in our way to church. There were gallants on either hand gay, dashing lads, with big whiskers, long locks, and smart ratans, upon whom madame, our lady-mother, looked with far more complacency than upon me. The course of Julia, herself, was, however, unexceptionable.

Before the Judge could recover from this overwhelming reception, the door-bell rang, and a boy was admitted to the hall. Frederick had seen the new-comer through the window, and went eagerly forward to meet him, at which his lady-mother drew herself up with imposing state, and called out "Frederick Farnham! will you never learn the just medium proper to your father's position?"

And you are not the only one who is bereaved many another man besides Odysseus lost the happy day of his homecoming in the war of Troy. Penelope, his lady-mother, looked in surprise at the youth who spoke to her so wisely. Was this indeed Telemachus who before had hardly lifted his head?

"I am Charles, second son of Ivan, Duke of Courland, who is in exile in Siberia. I made my escape." "If you go to Genoa you will find yourself beyond the reach of poverty; for no doubt the brother of your lady-mother would never abandon you." "He died in Silesia." "When?" "Two years ago, I believe." "You have been deceived, for I saw him at Stuttgart scarcely six months ago.

There was a larger on the opposite side, which at times in the winter nights when the cold was great, they filled bodily with a barricade of turf. Here, in the kitchen, the chief takes his meals with his lady-mother. She and Ian have just finished their breakfast, and gone to the other end of the house. The laird broke his fast long ago.

Singleton Corey, he had ardently espoused the cause of his wandering dad, and had withdrawn his love from the arrogant lady-mother, who never once spoke affectionately of the man Jack loved. He had taken what money she gave him. It was his dad's money, for his dad had suffered hardship to wrest it from the earth, in the mines that kept Mrs. Singleton Corey in soft, perfumed luxury.

He glanced round the rooms; they were richly furnished, but full of memorials of home, that gave them a melancholy aspect. Over the fireplace was a water-colour likeness of his lady-mother in her widow's weeds, and on the opposite side of the room another picture of a beautiful young child De Vayne's only brother, who had died in infancy.
