Sepp solemnly drew forth his flask of Schnapps and, taking off his hat to her, drank "Waidmann's Heil!" a toast only drunk by hunters to hunters. Gethryn shook hands with her twenty times and praised her until she could bear no more. She took her hand from her father's arm and drew herself up, determined to preserve her composure.
"'T is as good schnapps as ever came through a still," said Standish wistfully; "and if thou couldst stomach it must surely do thee good." "Water, water!" moaned Allerton. "Ay, a little water mingled with it were better for thee just now," replied the Captain soothingly. "But sith water may not be had" "Ho, men!
It is said that the life is one that requires the consumption of unlimited quantitics of 'schnapps, and the humidity of the atmosphere is undoubted. But even free libations do not diminish the prosperity of the bargees. They are a thriving race, and it must also be noted to their credit that they are well behaved, and not given to quarrels.
Leyden flushed to his hair roots, then paled with fury. He seized Barry by the shoulder, picked up a glass of schnapps, and flung the stinging liquor into the sailor's face. Barry's pose dropped in a flash. He made an expertly short job of the coolie kicker now the opening had come.
A negro named Joost, in the service of the Van Der Something-or-others, was plodding home on Saturday night, his fiddle under his arm. He had been playing for a wedding in Flatbush and had been drinking schnapps until he saw stars on the ground and fences in the sky; in fact, the universe seemed so out of order that he seated himself rather heavily on this rock to think about it.
Excusing himself to the Prince he opened it; it was postmarked from the station office at Schnapps, and it read thus "I have gone home. Charlotte." It was no use; the surprise of it was too much for him. "She has run off!" he ejaculated; the compromising phrase had slipped out before he was aware. "Who?" cried his wife, though knowing quite well. "Charlotte; she has gone home."
In the centre of the room stands a small table, upon which are several decanters containing "schnapps," a pile of brown bread sliced, various plates of biscuit and thin flour-cake, butter, and pickled fish. They then go in to dinner, and call for what they want, including the various wines necessary for the process of digestion.
Der jungere Uhlanen Sit round mit open mouth While Breitmann tell dem stories Of fightin' in the South; Und gif dem moral lessons, How before der battle pops, Take a little prayer to Himmel Und a goot long drink of Schnapps. Hans Breitmann's Ballads. "Mary, Mother av Mercy, fwhat the divil possist us to take an' kepe this melancolius counthry? Answer me that, sorr."
His unaccounted absence in Albany and his dealings with the dead had prepared his neighbors for any change in himself or his condition, and now that he always had a bottle of schnapps for the men and a pot of tea for the women, and was good to his mother, they said that they had always known that when he changed it would be for the better, at which his old detractors lifted their eyebrows significantly and when asked to dinner by him they always accepted.
As he bent to pick it up the door fell ajar, and a pungency of schnapps and tobacco went into his nostrils. His resolution, if he had one, vanished. He ordered one glass of schnapps; friends came in and treated him to another; he was bound to do as much for them; shilling by shilling the goose money passed into the till of the landlord.
