Beholding that fiery weapon acting on all sides, the Suta's son Karna of great valour shot in that encounter the varunastra for quenching it. That conflagration then, in consequence of Karna's weapon, became quenched. "'A large mass of clouds quickly caused all the points of the compass to be enveloped with darkness.
He was ignorant, the profane historian, of the testimony which he is compelled to deliver in the ecclesiastical page of Evagrius, that the Palladium was exposed on the rampart, and that the water which had been sprinkled on the holy face, instead of quenching, added new fuel to the flames of the besieged.
Another time she would have answered, though not bitterly, 'Meanwhile I'll go on knitting stockings, or 'Why not? we shall see what we shall see' something, at any rate, corrective and rather sober, quenching. But this time she said nothing. She returned the kiss instead, without looking up from her needles, and a great big thing like an unborn child moved near her heart.
A waiter runs with it, his finger stuck in the bottle instead of a cork, a fat raisin in the neck, and when it has done frothing and foaming there is nothing left at the bottom but a few drops of some nasty stuff, which far from quenching any one's thirst is enough to make one ill.

I drew her away now, promising to satisfy her in the fullest manner once she were out of these forbidding surroundings. I led her to the sacristy and seating her upon the settle I produced that wine-skin once again. At first she babbled like a child of not being thirsty; but I was insistent. "It is no matter of quenching thirst, Madonna," I told her. "The wine will warm and revive you.
If the thirst arises from some drug which has been taken, then hot water should always be given. Again, the locality of the dryness causing thirst indicates the best method of quenching it. If only the mouth and tongue be dry, then it will be sufficient to wash out the mouth with the water, or acid drink, not swallowing, so as to avoid unnecessary loading of the stomach.
He was sure they were not like the thing Constantia wore now, but it was too late to retreat. The young woman showed him one she declared was identical. "I want the one in the window," he persisted doggedly. In the end he got it, paid for it, saw it packed up and addressed, and quenching sundry misgivings in his heart, marched out of the shop and treated himself to a bus homeward.
