"Gold books, you know, flying about in the air, and the angel Maroni and hosts of the slain Lamanites." "You expect too much. Such visions as Mr. Smith had came but at the beginning to attest his mission and give him confidence." "Tut! I should think he had sufficient of that commodity. It is I who require the confidence, and have I come too late?"
"It might have that complexion in some lights," said Beaton. He drank off his Chianti, and thought he would have it twice a week, or make Maroni keep the half-bottles over for him, and send his father two dollars. "And what are you going to do now?" "That's what I don't know," said Fulkerson, ruefully.
Living in a conducting medium such as water, this bizarre animal can electrocute other fish from several meters away, so great is the power of its electric organ, an organ whose two chief surfaces measure at least twenty-seven square feet. During the course of the next day, April 12, the Nautilus drew near the coast of Dutch Guiana, by the mouth of the Maroni River.
"But it's midnight," chattered Neale, beginning to feel the chill. They hurried over the culvert and along the rough street. Far ahead there was an arc light burning on the corner of Meadow Street. But not a soul was astir in the neighborhood as the trio came nearer to the German woman's grocery store, and the corner where Joe Maroni, the father of Maria, had his vegetable and fruit stand.
She had fallen deeply in love with my brother, and it was easy to see that the flame was not yet extinguished, but whenever she spoke to him, which she did whenever she could get an opportunity, he looked another way.

Tess' mind, however, was full of that proposed Christmas tree. Maria Maroni was going to bring an orange for each pupil girls and boys alike to be hung on the tree. Her father had promised her that.
"Poor people will suffer a good deal, I am afraid," Ruth said, on this very first forenoon of their being snowbound. "Our folks on Meadow Street," agreed Agnes. "I hope Mrs. Kranz will be kind to them." "But we oughtn't to expect Mrs. Kranz, or Joe Maroni, to give away their food and coal. Then they'd soon be poor, too," said the earnest Ruth. "I tell you what, Aggie!" "Well shoot!"
"Well, Sadie maybe doesn't know much about poets," said Tess, reflectively, when she heard her older sisters laughing about the funny composition. "But she knows numbers, and can multiply and divide. But then, Maria Maroni can make change at her father's stand, and she told Miss Andrews of all the holidays, she liked most the Fourth of July, because that was when America was discovered.
The numerous cataracts of the rivers of Surinam, Maroni and Oyapoc, prove the extent and the prolongation of rocky ridges; but in those regions nothing indicates the existence of continued plains or table-lands some hundred toises high, fitted for the cultivation of the plants of the temperate zone.
