I exclaimed as I ran to the side of the shed in which Mrs. Ewe and the lambs resided. "Strike your cigar-lighter quick, Matt." As Matthew shed a tiny light from a silver tube upon the situation, I sank to my knees with a cry. There upon the grass lay one of my lambkins, and red blood was oozing from its woolly white throat.
I could not avoid thinking that I had fallen in with a greatly traduced people, and I moralized not a little upon the disadvantage of having a bad name, which in this instance had given a tribe of savages, who were as pacific as so many lambkins, the reputation of a confederacy of giant-killers. But subsequent events proved that I had been a little too premature in coming to this conclusion.
And Gilmartin and the other customers laughed heartily at the mildest of stories without even waiting for the point of the joke. At times their fingers clutched the air happily, as if they actually felt the good money the ticker was presenting to them. They were all neophytes at the great game lambkins who were bleating blithely to inform the world what clever and formidable wolves they were.
I watched her do it one night. I don't know what her notion was, keeping cases on the orchestra that way; but it seemed to give her a secret satisfaction. She was also interested in bird life and other studies of a high character, and she didn't want to be made a companion of by her rabid parent any more than brother did. They was just a couple of lambkins born to a tiger.
I'll whisper pretty nothings to the female lambkins and exchange commonplace lies with the young gentlemen, and then why then we'll come away again and straightway forget what manner of things we said and did, and they won't count when we meet on the street before folks." "That's all right," returned the other. "You just come anyway and see how badly you're mistaken.
Rather he thought to see "the lambkins, now frisking so innocently about the commonwealth, suddenly transform themselves into lions and wolves." It would be a fatal error, he said, to precipitate the dear fatherland into the net of a simulated negotiation, from unwise impatience for peace.
Another portion of the same tablet the eleventh continues the omens derived from peculiarities in the ears of lambkins: If the young one has no right ear, the rule of the king will come to an end, his palace will be uprooted, and the population of the city will be swept away, the king will lose judgment, ... the produce of the country will be small, the enemy will cut off the supply of water.
"They run this way, sire," said David, with respectful ardour: "'Lazy shepherd, see your lambkins Skip, ecstatic, on the mead; See the firs dance in the breezes, Hear Pan blowing at his reed. "Hear us calling from the tree-tops, See us swoop upon your flock; Yield us wool to make our nests warm In the branches of the "
"I don't believe I'll be able to stand seeing them hop out," I remarked to Baby Tillett, the lambkins, and the good old red ally, who was patiently seated on a box over fifteen of the pearls. Adam had kept the poor old darling covering some white china eggs for nearly two weeks before he gave her the pearls on the same day we put the forty-five in the interior of her metal rival.
How do you find the notes?" "I can do more than that, if I may," said the boy. "Play, then." And Rico played correctly, and with enthusiasm, "Little lambkins, come down From the bright sunny height; The daylight is fading, The sun says, 'Good-night!" The teacher sunk into a chair, and put his spectacles on his nose.
