But the Solunarians driving thus furiously at their Destruction and entire Ruin, open'd their Eyes to the following Measures for their preservation: And here again the high Solunarians may see, and doubtless whenever they made use of the Lunar-Glasses they must see it, that nothing could ha' driven the Crolians to make use of such Methods for their Defence, but the rash Proceedings of their own warm Men, in order to suppressing the whole Crolian Interest.
One fine, frosty morning, then, when I had lain in this distress just four weeks, the door of my cell open'd, and there appear'd a young woman, not uncomely, bringing in my bread and water. She was the jailer's daughter, and wore a heavy bunch of keys at her girdle. "Oh, good morning!" said I: for till now her father only had visited me, and this was a welcome change.
He open'd the gate, came through the path, and sat down by his mother in silence. "You are sullen to-night, Charley," said the widow, after a moment's pause, when she found that he return' d no answer to her greeting. As she spoke she put her hand fondly on his head; it seem'd moist as if it had been dipp'd in the water. "You have work'd hard to-day, my son." "I've been mowing."
And the picture of her as she knelt is the last I remember, till I open'd my eyes, and was amazed to find myself on my back, and staring up at darkness. "What has happen'd?" "I think you are very ill," said a voice: "can you lean on me, and reach the hut?" "Why, yes: that is, I think so. Why is everything dark?" "The sun has been down for hours.

But the word siege, like a talismanic power, in my father's metaphor, wafting back my uncle Toby's fancy, quick as a note could follow the touch he open'd his ears and my father observing that he took his pipe out of his mouth, and shuffled his chair nearer the table, as with a desire to profit my father with great pleasure began his sentence again changing only the plan, and dropping the metaphor of the siege of it, to keep clear of some dangers my father apprehended from it.
The verses I refer to are when Christabel conducts into her father's castle a mysterious and malevolent being, under the guise of a distressed female stranger. 'They cross'd the moat, and Christabel Took the key that fitted well; A little door she open'd straight, All in the middle of the gate; The gate that was iron'd within and without, Where an army in battle array had march'd out.
As for ourselves, our present prevalent feeling seems to be in accordance with our daring military character, which would say merely "Why then, China's our oyster Which we with sword have open'd."
'Towards evening Sir Allan told us that Sunday never passed over him like another day. One of the ladies read, and read very well, the evening service; "and Paradise was opened in the wild." Piozzi Letters, i. 173. The quotation is from Pope's Eloisa to Abelard, l. 134: 'You raised these hallowed walls; the desert smil'd, And Paradise was open'd in the wild.
What, my dear parents, will you say to this letter? I am resolved to return to my master, and am sending this to you by Thomas the coachman. It was one o'clock when we reach'd my master's gate. Everybody was gone to rest. But one of the helpers got the keys from Mrs. Jewkes, and open'd the gates.
