Oh, Billy, pull quick!" He could not hear; yet tugg'd like a Trojan. "Now, here's a time to keep a man sittin'!" he shouted, as he caught my hand, and pull'd me full length on the turf. "Why, lad hast seen a ghost?" There was no answer. The black horror had overtaken me at last.
"And did you," asked I, "never at heart chide me for leaving you so!" "Why no. I never took thee for a conjurer, Jack." "But, at least, you thought of me," I urged. "Oh, dear oh, dear!" She pull'd rein and look'd at me: "I remember now that last night I kiss'd thee. Forget it, Jack: last night, so glad was I to be sav'd, I could have kiss'd a cobbler.
I saw she was incapable of helping, and hasten'd across the stone floor, and out toward the back entrance. A stream of icy wind blew in our faces as we stepp'd over the threshold. The girl and I bent our heads to it, and stumbling, tripping, and panting, pull'd Sir Deakin with us out into the cold air. The yard was no longer dark.
Look how he tempteth thee with is decoy, That he may rob thee of thy life, thy joy. Come, pr'ythee bird, I pr'ythee come away, Why should this net thee take, when 'scape thou may? Hadst thou not wings, or were thy feathers pull'd, Or wast thou blind, or fast asleep wer't lull'd, The case would somewhat alter, but for thee, Thy eyes are ope, and thou hast wings to flee.
Not a word was spoken as he lit the lantern and pass'd out of the cabin, Delia and I following at his heels. Just outside, at the foot of the steps, he stoop'd, pull'd up a trap in the flooring, and disclos'd another ladder stretching, as it seem'd, down into the bowels of the ship. This we descended carefully; and found ourselves in the hold, pinching our noses 'twixt finger and thumb.
I could afford nothing for the rest, but Dieu vous benisse! Et le bon Dieu vous benisse encore, said the old soldier, the dwarf, &c. The pauvre honteux could say nothing; he pull'd out a little handkerchief, and wiped his face as he turned away and I thought he thanked me more than them all.
Nothing, I think, in nature, can be supposed more terrible than such a rencounter, so imprompt! so ill prepared to stand the shock of it as Dr. Slop was. What could Dr. Slop do? he crossed himself + Pugh! but the doctor, Sir, was a Papist. No matter; he had better have kept hold of the pummel. Obadiah pull'd off his cap twice to Dr.
I'll fog these gentry for thee. Many thanks, comrade," as I pull'd out the last few shillings of my pocket money. "Now pitch thy sword over the wall here, and set thy foot on my hand. 'Tis a rich man's garden, t'other side, that I was meaning to explore myself; but another night will serve." "'Tis Master Carter's," said I; "and he's my kinsman." "The devil! but never mind, up with thee!
It was on that occasion that the corner-stone of the Apprentices' Library, at the corner of Cranberry and Henry streets since pull'd down was laid by Lafayette's own hands. Numerous children arrived on the grounds, of whom I was one, and were assisted by several gentlemen to safe spots to view the ceremony.
At the first sound I pull'd up, and then began running again at full speed: for I saw our division already in motion, and advancing up the hill at a quick pace. The curve of the slope hid all but the nearest: but above them I saw a steep earthwork, and thereon three or four brass pieces of ordnance glittering whenever the smoke lifted.
