Oh, Goethe oh, Wolf! with what lamb-like innocence we wandered in comfortable sheep's clothing until you came and fleeced us, and infected us with your 'Sturm und Dranger' malady, and made us fall in love with your works!" "Goechhausen, hold your malicious tongue, and do not hide your own joy beneath jest and mockery," cried the duchess.
The evening, then, is over." The following day was soft and bright. March had evidently made up his martial mind to go out in a lamb-like fashion, and De Burgh was unusually amiable and communicative. "When shall you be ready to start?" he asked, following Katherine from the breakfast-table. "To start where?" she asked. "What! have you forgotten our plans of last night?" was his counter-question.
It was a beautiful day, of the lamb-like entrance weather of March, and on the way home Miss Adeline was met taking advantage of the noontide sunshine to exchange her book at the library, 'where, she said, 'I found Mr. White reading the papers, so I asked him to meet Jasper at luncheon, thinking that may be useful.
Louis, the lion lay down with the lamb. But remember that this text is too lightly interpreted. It is constantly assured, especially in our Tolstoyan tendencies, that when the lion lies down with the lamb the lion becomes lamb-like. But that is brutal annexation and imperialism on the part of the lamb. That is simply the lamb absorbing the lion instead of the lion eating the lamb.
"With whom do I compare thus favourably? The redoubtable Dick?" The colour came swiftly into her face and he laughed, derisively but not unkindly. "It's a new thing for me this sort of job. Are you sure my lamb-like qualities will carry me through? Do you know, dear, I've never seen you look so amazing sweet in all my life before? I never knew you could bloom like this. It's positively dangerous."
With that lamb-like placidity and that mule-like obstinacy which characterize the antique race of Quechuas, they observed to the chief interpreter that they were weary of falling on their backs or their stomachs at every other step, and that they were resolved to go no farther.
"MaHOMet!" with an additional emphasis upon the second syllable. Again no response. "Mahomet, you rascal, why don't you answer?" This energetic address would effect a change in his position. The mild and lamb-like dragoman of Cairo would suddenly start from the ground, tear his own hair from his head in handfuls, and shout, "Mahomet! Mahomet! Mahomet! always Mahomet! D n Mahomet!
"I believe he'th feared o' her," snapped the Deacon, "or he wudny-un went thae lamb-like!" "Leave him alone!" said Johnny Coe, who had been drinking too. "He's the only kind heart in Barbie. And Gourlay's the only gentleman." "Gentleman!" cried Sandy Toddle. "Lord save us! Auld Gourlay a gentleman!" "Yes, gentleman!" said Johnny, to whom the drink gave a courage.
Margaret hastily scattered the remainder of the grain in her apron, and whisked round. "Howd your din," she cried angrily, "or else tak' yoursel' off. I'll noan stand by an' hear sich talk i' my place." Ted, feeling he had made rather an inauspicious beginning, suddenly became lamb-like. "No offence," he pleaded humbly. "Mun I carry your basin for you into th' house?"
It was bitterly hard, for Marcus loved his profession, and had studied hard. The poor people whom he attended were devoted to him. "He allus tells a body the truth," said old Widow Bates. "I do hate a fellow who truckles and minces his words like that Sparks. Do you suppose Jem Arkwright would have let his leg be cut off in that lamb-like manner if it had been Benjamin Sparks to do it?
