Others, such as the skate, have their mouths paved that is the proper term with perfectly flat teeth. The first time your mamma is sending to buy fish beg her to let you have a skate's head to look at. You will be interested to see the small square ivory plates laid close adjoining each other, like the tiles of a church floor.
Suppose you had the utility-and-nothing-but-business bug biting you, like that skate's got? Why, what do you suppose you'd have done with little old Slippy? I was considerable good business to look at then, wasn't I? No.
Gabael knelt down before the old man and gave him the ten silver talents, telling him, in a long recital, of Tobias's exploits in Medea. After this Tobias advanced, embraced his father, and then rubbed his eyes with the skate's liver. Eugenie Charmel made a grimace, but after wiping her eyes she exclaimed: "I can see, I can see. Oh! God of goodness, God of mercy! I can see, I can see!"
Something had happened to the couple Tom and Ruth had noticed. They swerved to one side and suddenly Bob Steele went down. "His skate's broke!" erred Tom. "Hope old Bobbins isn't hurt. Great Scott! the girl's with him!" Mary Cox had indeed fallen. For a moment the two figures, flung by the momentum of their pace, slid over the ice. There came a wild shout from those nearer the boat then a splash!
"Well" again Merton faltered "the old skate's tired out from a hard week, and I'm not feeling any too lively myself." "Shucks! It won't kill him if you get on his back for a minute, will it? And you'll want one on him to show, won't you? Hurry up, while the light's right." Yes, he would need a mounted study to show.
Children call them "mermaids' purses." But they are more like little horny pillow-cases than purses. When first laid, the Dog-fish's egg has a very long string or tendril at each corner. The Skate's egg is much the same, only there is no tendril, but a curved hook at each corner. These hooks, of course, serve as anchors to hold the egg: no doubt they catch in weeds and stones.
"Just as I thought," muttered the boy; "this skate's kiddin' me just as he does the gal. He's a lazy brute it's the bud he wants." Convinced that he was right, and that his orders were all wrong, the jockey asserted himself. He proceeded to ride Lauzanne most energetically. In the horse's mind this sort of thing was associated with unlimited punishment.
Therefore Lord Keppel is as faithful as the rocks; he lifts his long heavy head, and gazes wistfully at the anchored ships, and Mary is sure that the darling pines for his absent master. But she, with the multitudinous tingle of youth, runs away rejoicing. The buoyant power and brilliance of the morning are upon her, and the air of the bright sea lifts and spreads her, like a pillowy skate's egg.
I felt rather sick, for I was holding in my hand a skate's liver and the heart and gizzard of a fowl. I had never touched such things before, and every now and then the nausea overcame me and the tears rose to my eyes. Finally the blind father came in, led by Tobias's sister.
"It used to be used for covering boxes. The shagreen is very old. They prefer to use skate's skin nowadays for making sheaths. This, as you are doubtless aware, is the hide of the raja sephen, a Red Sea fish." "But this, sir, since you are so exceedingly good "
