But we answered him that even as Jacob set up parti-coloured rods before the conceiving ewes that they might bear parti-coloured lambs, so to gaze in the marriage-bed upon the image of Astarte would surely stamp upon the children that might come the image of that demon.

"Your eyes did not deceive you; but what would my husband say if he found me otherwise than as God has made me?" "He can't have left you untouched!" "He really has done so. You can see for yourself if you like. Can I, then, give to you what appertains to the genius of the marriage-bed." "You are right, my angel; this fruit must be kept for a mouth unworthy to taste it. I pity and adore you.

Beyond doubt, there were many with whom my lady had danced; with whom she had laughed a little; with whom she had exchanged a few perfectly affable words and looks when of a sudden her heart speaks: "Who's he that would not dance? If he be married, my grave is like to prove my marriage-bed." In any event, Paris and Petruchio and Tiberio's young hopeful can go hang; Romeo has come.

They declared that the banishment of the archbishop must be construed as the vacation of his see, although their action might better be called a spiritual adultery for, while the spouse of this church was still living, the cabildo intruded their presence in order to abuse her; and, although in reality they were but sons and subjects, they had the audacity to occupy their father's marriage-bed.

He dies respectably in a marriage-bed, which is more than I should have foretold of the monster. Meantime," he gave the cake a dramatic tap, "I'll go sow nightmares."

"What a fatal day!" ejaculated the Major.

A fathom above, red in the red light of evening, lowered the pitiless face of Swanhild. Gudruda looked beneath her and saw. Pale with agony she looked up and saw, but she said naught. "Let go, my rival; let go!" cried Swanhild: "there is none to help thee, and none to tell thy tale. Let go, I say, and seek thy marriage-bed in Goldfoss!"

You seem to hesitate. Have you taken any earnest of the marriage-bed?" "No, dear Lucrezia, your daughter is as pure as a lily." "I breathe again." "Ah, yes! but my heart is torn asunder." "I am grieved to see you thus." "She has no likeness to me." "That proves nothing; she has taken after me. You are weeping, dearest, you will break my heart." "Who would not weep in my place?

But when this is the case, from the nature of things, happiness takes its flight, the marriage-bed is defiled, woman becomes an outlaw in her heart, and the two bound together by a chain rather than by the silken cord of love, are candidates for a peaceable divorce or a continuous battle.
