Poor mamma, who knows the price she paid for a lady governess? It was when these morning visits grew so long that I first began to notice the tone in which Miss Reinhart spoke of my mother. She would lean her beautiful head just a little forward, her eyes bright with sweetest sympathy, her voice as beautifully sweet as the cooing of the ring-dove.
Though my bones rot, nor time Nor absence from my heart her image shall efface. Then he fainted again and presently coming to his senses, went on to the second cage, wherein he found a ring-dove. When it saw him, it sang out, 'O Eternal, I praise thee! and he sighed and recited these verses: I heard a ring-dove say in her plaintive note, "Despite of my woes, O Eternal, I praise Thee still!"
Suddenly the leader stops, gives the low cry of the Ring-dove, which halts his followers, and suspended in air, gazes at the sleeping form of a young white man, reclining, with his rifle beside him, on a hammock which rises dry and grass-covered above the surrounding morasses.
A baker who had paused for a moment to look, and then passed on, was singing as he went, and the song and the man's accent were both familiar to Jan. "The swallow twitters on the barn, The rook is cawing on the tree, And in the wood the ring-dove coos" "What's your name, boy?"
Cecilia's part was to sit on the couch helplessly and beg to be allowed to do something, in the voice of a cooing ring-dove. Hetty prepared the rib beef, putting it in cold salted water in the stew-pan and setting it on the one-burner gas-stove. "I wish we had an onion," said Hetty, as she scraped the two potatoes.
I kept pulling my eyes open to stay awake for the purpose." "And I told mother that I wished for a ring-dove," said Boris. "I want a ring-dove awfully, for there's an empty cage in the attic that will just fit it. Oh, I do hope, I do hope, that it will come!" He looked almost sad as he spoke and glanced at Nell, who was not looking at him. "Nell, come here," exclaimed Molly suddenly.
"I want you," she said, the note of a young ring-dove answering her mate murmuring in her voice, "I want you to love me as you love me. I love your way of loving me." "Darling!" broke from him, his boy's heart beating fast and high. And their soft young lips were, through some mystery of power, drawn so near to each other that they met like flowers moved to touching by the summer wind.
Will the ring-dove return to her nest? Will the needle swing back from the east or the west? At the stroke of the hour she will be at her gate; A friend may prove laggard, love never comes late. Do I see her afar in the distance? Not yet. Too early! Too early! She could not forget! When I cross the old bridge where the brook overflowed, She will flash full in sight at the turn of the road.
Then went we deep into the woods, following the notes of the cuckoo and the ring-dove, only that we might come forth again with hands unstained by the blood of any such innocent creatures. I was very much amused with all this for a while, but by degrees it began to grow tiresome; and I proposed that, as the sun wore towards the west, we should return home.
Her rich hair, thus released and dishevelled by the exercise, fell partly over her face in wavy ringlets; and her musical laugh and words of sportive endearment sounded on Kenelm's ear more joyously than the thrill of the skylark, more sweetly than the coo of the ring-dove. He approached towards Mrs. Cameron. Lily turned suddenly and saw him.
