Those who toss crumbs to their domestic favourites will now and then be moved to toss meat, which is not so good for them, but the dumb mendicant's delight in it is winning, and a little cannot hurt.

Mrs Wilfer's first visit to the Mendicant's bride at the new abode of Mendicancy, was a grand event. Pa had been sent for into the City, on the very day of taking possession, and had been stunned with astonishment, and brought-to, and led about the house by one ear, to behold its various treasures, and had been enraptured and enchanted.

This unexpected interview with the mendicant's daughter, joined to the hints he had already received, once more caused M'Mahon to feel considerably perplexed with regard to Hycy Burke.

Otohime answered: "Neither horse nor kago do I need, nor any servant; I need only the dress of a pilgrim, leggings and gown, and a mendicant's wallet." For Otohime held it her duty to set out by herself all alone, just as Shuntoku had done. So she left home, saying farewell to her parents, with eyes full of tears: scarcely could she find voice to utter the word "good-by."

From that time Francis wore mendicant's garb and begged his food in the streets. What did he accomplish by all this? To begin with, he succeeded in rebuilding three churches. But his influence was destined to be much more far-reaching than that, and of a very different nature.

* Links, or torches. I am thinking, Maister Lovel, if twa puir contrite spirits like yours and mine fand grace to make our petition" Here Lovel laid his hand eagerly on the mendicant's arm, saying, "Hush!

First and last, Shelley emptied into that rapacious mendicant's lap a sum which cost him for he borrowed it at ruinous rates from eighty to one hundred thousand dollars. But it was Mary Godwin's papa, the supplications were often sent through Mary, the good judge is Mary's strenuous friend, so Mary gets no censures.

With the sedulous attention of a parent to a child, Lovel bound Miss Wardour with his handkerchief, neckcloth, and the mendicant's leathern belt, to the back and arms of the chair, ascertaining accurately the security of each knot, while Ochiltree kept Sir Arthur quiet. "What are ye doing wi' my bairn? what are ye doing? She shall not be separated from me Isabel, stay with me, I command you!"

"Sir Arthur, let me bring in the messenger of good luck, though he is but a lame one. "Ye owe it o' to puir Robie that drave me; puir fallow," said the beggar, "he doubts he's in disgrace wi' my leddy and Sir Arthur." Robert's repentant and bashful face was seen over the mendicant's shoulder.
