It gave us an awful scare when we heard you were going to die. But you will soon be all right and able to get out again. Be careful you don't catch cold. I am going to bake some nice things for you and send them over, now that the doctor says you can eat them. And I'll send you my rosebud plate to eat off of. I'm only lending it, you know, not giving it.
"But the question is, who? If I go to the Agent, it'll raise trouble. Parker is bullheaded, and sure to upset Black Fox. Likely he'll stop his going hunting. If I warn old Rube Sampson it'll amount to the same thing. He'll go to the Agent. It must be either Seth or Rosebud." "Good, good," assented the Indian woman eagerly. "You say it to Seth."
There was also a Miss Rosebud, accompanied by her mother, a blooming widow, who had married old Rosebud, a wealthy bachelor, when he was near sixty. The mother's complaint was also the spleen, or vapors; indeed, to tell the truth, she was moved by an unconquerable and heroic determination to replace poor old Rosebud by a second husband.
My brother longs for the war-path. He would kill Seth. For Seth killed our father. One never knows. It is better you say to him, 'Rosebud is white. The braves want no white squaw." But the man had had enough of the discussion, and began to whistle. It was hard to understand how he had captured the loyal heart of this dusky princess. He was neither good-looking nor of a taking manner.
But tell me, Jack, wouldst thou have spared such a girl as my Rosebud, had I not, by my example, engaged thy generosity? Nor was my Rosebud the only girl I spared: When my power was acknowledged, who more merciful than thy friend? It is resistance that inflames desire, Sharpens the darts of love, and blows its fire.
Slowly but surely the Skimmer crept up on the Rosebud, until the bow of the second craft overlapped the stern of the first. "Not walking away so fast now, are you?" questioned Pepper, cheerily. "Just wait, we'll beat you, see if we don't!" growled Coulter. "Swing the mainsail over!" cried Ritter. His order was obeyed, and the Rosebud commenced to pick up again.
Runners came overland across the empty Rosebud to carry the news from the little towns, riding hell-for-leather, their horses foaming although the night was cold. "You ought to see Dallas, folks! People lighting like grasshoppers.... You ought to see Gregory!" The rivalry was bitter among the towns, each trying to corner as much of the crowd as possible.
She told me that through the past year, the Doctor's letters were all that sustained her." "Of course they did! Cousin John's letters sustain everybody. Especially if you haven't heard his lectures. Of course he does repeat himself." "As for her youth," went on Mrs. Ivy. "What if she is a mere rosebud as yet? She'll unfold; we'll help her to unfold, you and I, won't we?"
I watched the dance with a faint sense of pleasure it was full of so much harmony and delicacy of rhythm. The lad who thrummed the guitar broke out now and then into song a song in dialect that fitted into the music of the dance as accurately as a rosebud into its calyx.
Is it funny?" "No! it's only silly like you!" says Dulce throwing a rosebud at him, which he catches dexterously. "Thank you," he says, meekly, whether for the speech or the flower, he leaves vague. "Stephen Gower is coming over here to-night," says Roger suddenly. "To-night? Why didn't you ask him to dinner?" asks Dulce, a note of surprise in her tone.
