While John was thus ruminating and longing for a little light from the murky sky, the ladies, relying on him, slept in their little berths. The stationary attitude of the brig insured them some hours of repose.
"Come to me at six o'clock, Bainton. I shall want you." "Very good, sir!" The pole splashed in the water, the punt shot out into the clear stream, Nebbie gave two short barks, as was his custom when he found himself being helplessly borne away from dry land, and in a few seconds Walden had disappeared round one of the bends of the river. Bainton stood ruminating for a minute.
An' 'ee didn't believe as your money would come to any good; for now Eliza was gone you wouldn't know how to take care on it." John's eyes flamed. "Oh! 'ee says that, do 'ee? Well, Saunders wor allus a beast an' a beast 'ee'll be." He sat with his chin on his large dirty hands, ruminating furiously. It was quite true that Saunders had thwarted him more than once.

He's Auld Kirk." Leeby returned to the kitchen, and Jess sat for a time ruminating. "The lad Wilkie," she said at last, triumphantly, "'ll be to bide at Lawyer Ogilvy's; but he'll be gaen to the manse the morn for a tea-dinner."

It does seem cruel, with such a sun and soil, to be told that a garden is worth nobody's while here; however, Mr. O said that he believed the wife of the former overseer had made a 'sort of a garden' at St. Simon's.

These carts were always empty, but were presumed to be engaged in some way on military service. No faces looked out at the windows of the houses, no forms stood in the doorways. A few shops were open, but only in the drinking-shops did I see customers. In these, silent, muddy men were sitting, not with drink before them, as men sit with us, but with the cud within their jaws, ruminating.

"I have a little business to transact before I leave." Don Rocco squirmed in his chair, winking hard, and frowning heavily. "I suggested it because it is so late," he mumbled, half churlishly, half timidly. "I also have something to do." "The sermon, eh? the sermon, the sermon!" the Moro repeated mechanically, looking at the fire, and ruminating. "See here," he concluded, "suppose we do this.
"Funny thing, Davy," he said, "they all left the room." For a moment he appeared to be ruminating on this singular phenomenon. "How long have you been in Nashville, Nick?" I asked. "A year," he said, "lookin' after property I won rattle-an'-shnap you remember?" "And why didn't you let me know you were in Nashville?" I asked, though I realized the futility of the question.
