"She sits down like," said Irene, trembling in second-sight, "and she tries on the glass slipper, and it fits her to a T, and then the prince, he cries in a ringing voice, 'This here is my true love, Cinderella, what now I makes my lawful wedded wife." Then she would come out of her dream, and look round at the grandees of the Gardens with an extraordinary elation.

Like one on the verge of a second-sight, her history seemed for a moment about to reveal itself where it lay, like a bird in its egg, within those massive walls, warded by those huge ascending towers.

While he was deep sunk in his reverie, the rustle of tartans was heard behind him, a friendly arm clasped his shoulders, and a friendly voice exclaimed, 'Said the Highland prophet sooth? or must second-sight go for nothing? Waverley turned, and was warmly embraced by Fergus Mac-Ivor. 'A thousand welcomes to Holyrood, once more possessed by her legitimate sovereign!

"It must be so, David; it shall be so! I am an old man older than you think, perhaps and with age there sometimes comes something strangely akin to the gift of second-sight. So I know it will be so, though you think me a madman." "I don't, indeed, but you.... Well! I give it up." Amber laughed uneasily. "Go on. Where's this maiden in distress?"

There's the old type, which we knew in our youth, and happily it still survives in some numbers, the peasant who, for all his rags and tatters, has manners that will often put one's own to shame, and, with a simpatia like second-sight, is before one's wishes, in his eagerness to serve and please.

After the Egyptian and Indian, the Greek and Roman, the Teuton and Mongolian, the Negro is a sort of seventh son, born with a veil, and gifted with second-sight in this American world, a world which yields him no self-consciousness, but only lets him see himself through the revelation of the other world.

"Some chaps put it down to second-sight or thought-reading." When we turned in Dan was still chuckling over his cute handling of the trip.

She has spoken little of her gift of second-sight since ye were born; but she is often subject to long and gloomy fits of silent melancholy, as ye have all been witnesses; and I attribute it all to our foray to Simprin. Now, the eldest sons of Jonathan and Barbara Moor were twins, and the youngest were also twins, and they had no daughters living.
