It was in the very heart of sermon-time, and he had the whole street to himself on his way up to Squire Gaylord's house.

Again, when, in 1719, my predecessor, old Vicar Hichens, removed it to the church and set it in the south aisle or, at any rate, when he died and ceased to protect it the young men of the parish took to using it for a hatstand, and also to carving their own and their sweethearts' names upon it during sermon-time.

Thomas's eve, when it first started to freeze, the folk were thinking that summer meant to run straight into spring. I mind the ash being in leaf on Advent Sunday, and a crowd of martins skimming round the church windows during sermon-time. Each morning brought blue sky, warm mists, and a dew that hung on the brambles till ten o'clock.

Truelocke himself did not join in the new formal prayers was not noticed, his presence at sermon-time seeming to give mighty satisfaction to Mr. Poole, who would often walk up to the Grange of a Lord's Day evening, to ask Mr.

It was simply impossible to keep those fourteen eyes off Uncle Alec, and the dreadful things that were done during sermon-time will hardly be believed. Rose dared not look up after a while, for these bad boys vented their emotions upon her till she was ready to laugh and cry with mingled amusement and vexation.

Honest Sir Pitt, however, did not feel the force of these discourses, as he always took his nap during sermon-time. Mr. Crawley was very earnest, for the good of the nation and of the Christian world, that the old gentleman should yield him up his place in Parliament; but this the elder constantly refused to do.

The tithing-man, who carried a long rod and kept order in the house, and out-doors at noontime, sat in the gallery, and visited any boy who whispered or found curious passages in the Bible and showed them to another boy. It was an awful moment when the bushy-headed tithing-man approached a boy in sermon-time.

There's a dreadful Secondly, and a dreadful Thirdly to come as I used to say to myself in sermon-time when I was a very small-sized sinner at church. 'Let them come, my dearest. 'Are you sure, John dear; are you absolutely certain in your innermost heart of hearts ? 'Which is not in my keeping, he rejoined. 'No, John, but the key is.

Sinful sloth deprives the Christian of his comforts. What he intended only for a moment's nap, like a man asleep during sermon-time in church, became a deep sleep, and his roll fell out of his hand; and yet he ran well while there was nothing special to alarm him. But why go back again? That is the next way to hell. Never go over hedge and ditch to hell.

Here the children were sent to the regular services with a drop of perfume on their handkerchiefs and gloves and a peppermint in their pockets for sermon-time and also attended the Sunday School. Mary's own recollection of herself at this period was that she was "a wild lassie."
