"But as we haven't water, the egg is the next best thing you can take," said Denis, helping him. But poor Percy could scarcely gulp it down. All the time Raff was looking up as much as to say, "I wish you'd give me some of that; I'd eat it fast enough." Denis could not resist the imploring looks of the poor dog, and gave him a portion of his own share.
They first made their way to the fountain, where they refreshed themselves with a draught of pure water, and having given as much to Raff as he could drink, they filled their water bottles, washed their faces and heads, and then pushed on, their spirits cheered with the hope of soon obtaining some game, and of falling in with the waggon before the day was over.
"Are you all right, Percy?" "Somewhat stiff and sore, but I shall feel better when I have stretched my legs, I daresay," answered Percy. "Dear me! the fire has gone out." "Then the sooner we get down and light it the better," said Denis. They descended from their roosting places, Denis carefully handing down the guns to Percy, who went first. They then helped Raff to reach the ground. "Take care!
Am it a ship at all? Or am it some o' de wreck Pandoray?" "Castaways," responded Ben. "Castaways of the bark Pandora, Who calls? Snowball! Be it you?" "Dat same chile, who am you? Am it you, massa Capten, in de gig?" "No." "Massa Grow, den, on de big raff?" "Neither," responded the sailor. "It's Ben, Ben Brace." "Golly! you say so, Massa Brace!

The influence of Raff is of the utmost importance in MacDowell's music, and I have been told that the great romancist made a protégé of him, and would lock him in a room for hours till he had worked out the most appalling musical problems. Through Raff's influence he became first piano teacher at the Darmstadt Conservatorium in 1881.
In 1876 he went to Paris and entered the Conservatoire, where he studied theory under Savard, and the piano under Marmontel. He went to Wiesbaden to study with Ehlert in 1879, and then to Frankfort, where Carl Heyman taught him piano and Joachim Raff composition.
"Miss Leyburn has been jilted and cannot see visitors," that is the kind of thing. Catherine, when you have finished that document, will you kindly come and hear me practise my last Raff I am going. Good-bye. She moved to the door, but Catherine had only just time to catch her, or she would have fallen over a chair from sudden giddiness.
That boy's thank-you," he added, nodding sidewise toward Hans, "was pay enough for me." "Like enough ye have a boy of your own," said Dame Brinker, quite delighted to see the great man becoming so sociable. Dr. Boekman's good nature vanished at once. "Do not think the vrouw meddlesome, mynheer," said Raff.
Margarita's cheeks were overflowing with the offended rose. 'I will not look at them again, father. Gottlieb stared, and then patted her. 'I would I were a man, father! Gottlieb smiled, and stroked his beard. 'Oh! how I burn! And the girl shivered visibly. 'Grete! mind to be as much of a woman as you can, and soon such raff as this you may sweep away, like cobwebs, and no harm done.
"Treat you WHAT way, Meitje?" "What way," said Dame Brinker, mimicking his voice and manner. "What way? Why, just as every woman in the world is treated after she's stood by a man through the worst, like a " "Meitje!" Raff was leaning forward with outstretched arms. His eyes were full of tears. In an instant Dame Brinker was at his feet, clasping his hands in hers. "Oh, what have I done!
