As I swung round the bend of the hills downwards and looked up the sloping dell, I remembered that these heathery hollows were called 'vallons' by the people of Lorraine, and this set me singing the song of the hunters, 'Entends tu dans nos vallons, le Chasseur sonner du clairon, which I sang loudly till I reached the river bank, and lost the exhilaration of the hills.

Når Halvdans mord var det förste punkt i slægtens historie, kunde man umulig unddrage sig fra klart og alsidig at belyse dets fölger. Det var selvfölgeligt, at Frode også stræbte at rydde Halvdans to sönner af vejen; således fremkom sagnene om fosterfædre og venner, der sögte at skjule dem.

I had used but twenty-two years of my life, there were fifty left to write in, and what couldn't you write in fifty years! Often, sitting here at night, I would get an idea and begin to work, and I would keep on until at last the enormous old woman who kept the café we called her "The Blessed Damozel" would come lumbering out and good humoredly growl, "Couches-toi donc. Une heure vient de sonner."

Mademoiselle's laughter came first. They sat holding each other's eyes, shaken with laughter, until Mademoiselle said, sighing brokenly, "Et c'est la cloche qui va sonner immediatement." As they undressed, she went on talking "the night comes the black night... we must sleep... we must sleep in peace... we are safe... we are protected... nous craignons Dieu, n'est ce pas?"

"What's that Zosimus?" "Zosimus, sir, Zosimus of Panopolis, was a learned Greek, who flourished at Alexandria in the third century of the Christian era, and wrote treatises on the spagyric art." "Do you fancy it matters to me? Why do you translate it? "Battons le fer quand il est chaud Dit-elle, en faisant sonner haut Le nom de sultan premiere Laire lan laire."

Some of Berlioz's musical qualities are so striking that it is unnecessary to dwell upon them here. The instruments appear to be arranged in defiance of all common sense; and it would seem, to use professional slang, that cela ne dut pas sonner, but cela sonne wonderfully. Think of the effect that such works must have produced at that period.

The thirde day being calme, at noone we strooke saile, and let fall a cadge anker, to proue whether we could take any fish, being in latitude 54. degrees 30. minuts, in which place we found great abundance of cod, so that the hooke was no sonner ouerboord, but presently a fish was taken.

"Dieu est mort," says another writer of the same class, and of great genius too. "Dieu est mort," writes Mr. Henry Heine, speaking of the Christian God; and he adds, in a daring figure of speech; "N'entendez-vous pas sonner la Clochette? on porte les sacremens a un Dieu qui se meurt!" Another of the pantheist poetical philosophers, Mr.

'Sonnez vos trompettes, et je vais faire sonner mes cloches, or to the Von Erlachs, a family that has headed so many resistances to oppression and invasion, for five centuries?" "All this is very true," returned Sir George, "and yet I confess it is not the way in which it is usual with us to consider American society."
