Ss-s-s-sss! Are you mad, Arjillax? This is an outrage. An insult. The two sculptors issue from the temple. One has a beard two feet long: the other is beardless. Between them comes a handsome nymph with marked features, dark hair richly waved, and authoritative bearing. Can you play the flute?

CHR. What thing so deserving as to turn us out of the way to see it? DEMAS. Here is a silver mine, and some digging in it for treasure. If you will come, with a little pains you may richly provide for yourselves. HOPE. Then said Hopeful, Let us go see.

The First Consul wore on that day the costume of the consuls, which consisted of a scarlet coat without facings, and with a broad embroidery of palms, in gold, on all the seams. His sword, which he had worn in Egypt, hung at his side from a belt, which, though not very wide, was of beautiful workmanship, and richly embroidered.

She invents nothing and she magnifies nothing; her narrative is as plain and unvarnished as a ship's log-book. She was 157 feet in length, with an extreme breadth of twenty-seven and a-half feet. Belonging to a wealthy English gentleman, she was richly appointed, and fitted up with a luxurious splendour which would have driven wild with envy and admiration the earlier circumnavigators.

As we sat at our late dinner, a familiar melody from the sonorous chimes of the church-tower came through the open window to our great delight.

"That's the janitor," said Petey in an awestruck whisper. "Get behind a tree, quick. He's sure some vexed. He hates to have the boys ride their ponies into classroom." We got a fine view of the janitor as he swept past. He was a regular volcano in pants. Never have I heard the English language more richly embossed with profanity.

At last she found words to begin her story, and before she went to bed she had made a clean breast of it and told everything everything, that is, as to the lovers she had rejected; of Mr. Arabin she said not a word. "I know I was wrong," said she, speaking of the blow she had given to Mr. Slope; "but I didn't know what he might do, and I had to protect myself." "He richly deserved it," said Mary.
