Harry, however, recollecting that others were present released her, and having learned more particulars, had no doubt, coupling them with what he heard from Mad Sal, that Jacob had really been carried on board some vessel off the coast. "We must do our best to recover him." "Oh yes, do," exclaimed May. "Had it not been for him, I should probably have been carried away."
"My grammar don't read so. It says Masculine, Feminine Neuter and Grundy gender, to which last but one thing in the world belongs, and that is the lady below with the cast iron back and India-rubber tongue." "Do you mean Mrs. Grundy?" asked Mary, and Sal replied, "Mrs. Grundy? and who may Mrs. Grundy be? Oh, I understand, she's been stuffing you." "Been what?" said Mary.
I hear there was a wonderful sight of brent geese up by Berling Gap yesterday but I'm keeping you standing in the cold, Miss 'I will walk back with you, said Nan, turning. 'No, Miss. No, thank you, Miss, said Sal, sturdily. 'But only as far as Lewes Crescent, said Nan, with a gentle laugh. 'You know I am going to stop there for the mutton bones.
Lion is, of course, from the Latin leo, which word, in turn, is lost far back in the Egyptian tongue, where the word for the king of beasts was labu. The compound word leopard is first found in the Persian language, where pars stands for panther. Seal, very appropriately, was once a word meaning "of the sea"; close to the Latin sal, the sea.
"Then," asked Madge, firmly, as she clasped her hands tightly together, "who was this woman whom Mr. Fitzgerald went to see, and where did she come from?" "Gran' an' me found her one evenin' in Little Bourke Street," answered Sal, "just near the theatre. She was quite drunk, an' we took her home with us." "How kind of you," said Madge. "Oh, it wasn't that," replied the other, dryly.
Then he sings out, 'My G , it's too horrible! an' I 'ear 'er a larfin' like to bust, an' then 'e comes to me, and ses, quite wild like, 'Take me out of this 'ell! an' I tooked 'im." "And when you came back?" "She was dead." "Dead?" "As a blessed door-nail," said Sal, cheerfully. "An' I never knowd I was in the room with a corpse," wailed Mother Guttersnipe, waking up.
This is often a successful mode if you secure an advantageous place, but accidents to the beaters are very common, and it is at best a weary and vexatious mode of shooting, as after all your trouble the tiger may not come near your mychan, or give you the slightest glimpse of his beautiful skin. I have only been out after tiger on foot on one occasion. It was in the sal jungles in Oudh.
On these occasions Miss Grundy's wrath knew no bounds, and going to Mr. Parker she would lay the case before him in so aggravated a form, that at last to get rid of her, he would promise that, for the next offence, Sal should be shut up. In this way the poor woman, to use her own words, "was secluded from the visible world nearly half the time."
The Romans had had many reasons for mistrusting their great enemy, the Carthaginians, and they used this expression, Fides Punica, which we have simply borrowed from the Latin. The Romans used the word sal, or "salt," in this sense of wit, and their expression sal Atticum shows the high opinion they had of the Athenians, from whom, indeed, they learned much in art and in literature.
But I just sat there and let my thoughts run free. That year, Sal, Paul, Tom, my brother, and I placed thousands of posters in Manhattan. Working with Anne, Dana, and Suzanne, we also distributed thousands of handouts on the Stony Brook campus. Sometimes we worked in sub-freezing temperatures. Once Atmananda had us glue posters on buildings in Manhattan in the middle of the night. I did not mind.
