The sandals themselves will guide you on the road, for they are divine and cannot stray, and this sword itself will kill her, for it is divine and needs no second stroke. Arise and gird them on, and go forth." So Perseus arose, and girded on the sandals and the sword. And Athene cried, "Now leap from the cliff and be gone!"

The abbot had put off his riding attire; he had clothed his feet in dainty slippers instead of sandals, and had thrown a soft robe around his monastic garb contrasting strongly with the stern attire prescribed by St.

"But you must let me go, you know."
I crouch beside it, sheltered from the storm behind a mass of underwood, and watch operations. Shod with adhesive sandals which later on, in my laboratory, will allow it rapidly to climb a vertical sheet of glass, the elephant-beetle is solidly established on the smooth, steep curvature of the acorn.
