"Take care, Jehan; you know that I am not particularly fond of repeating commands. Certainly my old basket-hilt took the journey with me." Jehan went rummaging among his master's personal effects, and soon returned. He buckled on the marquis's shoulder a worn baldric pendent to which was the famous basket-sword which had earned for its owner the sobriquet of "Prince of a hundred duels."
Rummaging among the books, of course, I found some cheap periodical with verses in it. The lines began "The Baron of Smaylhome rose with day, He spurred his courser on, Without stop or stay, down the rocky way That leads to Brotherstone." A rustic tea-table was spread for us, with scones and honey, not to be neglected. But they were neglected till we had learned how
There was some rummaging in the other rooms, and in less than five minutes' time the clatter of hoofs outside told the boy that the doctor was off, probably on the huge gray horse Wilbur had seen in the corral as he rode in that day. It was broad daylight when he wakened again, and Mrs. Davis was standing beside him with his breakfast tray.
Ginger wine. How will that do?" "Here's something better," Ezra said, rummaging in the cupboard. "Here is a bottle of Hollands. It is Mrs. Jorrocks' private store, I fancy." Burt poured himself out half a tumblerful, and filled it up with water. "Drive along," he said; "I am lisnin'." Girdlestone rose and stood with his back to the fire, and his hands under his coat-tails.
Then the Professor began to fly about the room, tearing into the pantry, rushing from the table to the stove and back again, rummaging in the refrigerator for oranges and butter, and upsetting two chairs that stood in his way. All this time Mrs. Brady quietly toasted bread and broiled bacon while there hovered on her lips an enigmatic smile.
"It has been there a long time," the boy replied rummaging his book. Pemberton was silent, then he went on: "I say, what are you hunting for? They pay me beautifully." "I'm hunting for the Greek for awful whopper," Morgan dropped. "Find that rather for gross impertinence and disabuse your mind. What do I want of money?" "Oh that's another question!"
In order to levy the fine above mentioned, some officers had been sent to seize all the furniture and books of his episcopal palace of Lincoln; and in rummaging the house, they found in a corner some neglected letters, which had been thrown by as useless. These letters were written by one Osbaldistone, a schoolmaster, and were directed to Williams.
She was rummaging about down there, scurfy and repulsive to look at, chewing an unappetizing slice of bread-and-butter, and starting at every sound that came from above, so anxious was she about her filthy money! Pelle needed a new heel-iron, so he went in and purchased that of Pipman. He had to haggle with her over the price.
It so happened that on this particular morning he had drawn out of a corner his interrupted study of Gabriel Nash; on no further curiosity he had only been looking round the room in a rummaging spirit than to see how much or how little of it remained.
While he was getting the inner-tube out, squatting in front of her car so as to work in the glow from her headlights, she was rummaging through her repair kit. "These rocky roads, you know, and the way I drive." He laughed. "The way she drove!" That meant, "Like the devil!" as he would put it.
