He will climb up with the help of this rope, and, if he is careful to go away before the fifth watch, no one will surprise you." "Admirable!" cried the delighted child. "When will he come?" "It is too late to-day. But I will go to him to-morrow morning. Give me a pledge of re-assurance for him." "Assuredly! Take the other slipper. He will give it back to me to-morrow."
It was interesting to observe the slight embarrassment with which Count Filgiatti re-encountered his earlier American vision, and his re-assurance when I gave him the bow of the most travelling of acquaintances. Nothing was further from my thoughts than interfering.
But the little man smiled such a sweet smile of re-assurance, that her face returned at once to its prevailing expression of content. She cleared a place on the table, set down her tray, and went to bring cups and saucers. "I think I understand you now," said Wingfold, after the little pause occasioned by the young woman's entrance.
At first he had said to himself that, whether he had held his tongue or spoken, she had already lost her chance; but with time, somehow, this reflection had lost its weight in the scale. It conveyed little re-assurance to his irritated conscience it had become imponderable and impertinent.

The sad transformation was effected in a manner well pleasing to the Prince of Darkness.
She had found one to take their places, one whose first act had been his re-assurance that she should not be robbed of the child who was her all. There was no one greater in all the world to her than the "white man officer" whose courage and will she counted as powers greater than the storms of Unaga. All day she laboured at her many tasks.
Emma at once turned to the little one with smiles of re-assurance. Kate would have preferred to deal slaps, but contented herself with taking a cup of tea to the fireside, and sulking for half an hour. Emma unrolled the bundle of work, and soon the hum of the sewing-machine began, to continue late into the night.
Her manners gave some re-assurance to Edward, and he had courage enough to sit down; but his embarrassment still exceeded that of the ladies in a proportion, which the case rendered reasonable, though his sex might make it rare; for his heart had not the indifference of Lucy's, nor could his conscience have quite the ease of Elinor's.
