He could have summered her in love, if she would but have been passive and happy! He asked no more of her than that. Poor, silent, passionate Dode! No one knew her as he knew her! What were that man's cold blue eyes telling her now at the house? It mattered nothing to him. He went across the cornfield to the church, his thin coat flapping in the wind, looking at his rusty pistol with a shudder.
If you have never had the pleasure of meeting a Southern gentleman of the patriarchal school, I despair of bringing you well acquainted with Major Caspar Dabney until you have summered and wintered him.
"I know some people SAY they are," Brother Pierce guardedly retorted "but I've summered an' wintered both kinds, an' I hold to it they're different. I grant ye, the Eyetalians ARE some given to jabbin' knives into each other, but they never git up strikes, an' they don't grumble about wages.
When we have summered and wintered them, and look back on them from changed times and other days, we find that they were making their mark upon us, though we knew it not."
The old man had wintered here, summered a thousand miles away, made his strike at one end of the world, lost it somehow, and cheerfully tried for a repetition of his luck at the other. I do not believe the possibility of wealth, though always of course in the background, was ever near enough his hope to be considered a motive for action.
Jamie told me how she liked to swim that path and how, several times, she nearly hadn't made it back. We were young. I was giddy with accomplishment as we finished a second bottle of wine.

She had summered on Nantucket for years.
The house suits me just as 'tis, and my victuals suit me, and my friends that I've summered and wintered with, forty years and over, they suit me, too. What do I want of a villa, or of trips to Europe, where the folks talk all kinds of heathenish gibberish instead of good United States!"

As soon as corn planting is over the farmer begins to receive his chickens from the hatchery. The brooders are now placed in the corn field. The object of the corn is not green food but for a shade and a grain crop. The chicks are summered in the corn field and the hens in the wheat or rye. Whether the latter will head up will depend upon the number of the flock.
Ah-tek assented gravely. Evidently he cared very little whether or not his explanation was accepted. "How many days to Winnipeg?" asked Sam. "I have never been there," replied the Indian. "We have summered in the region of the Missináibie," proffered Sam. "Now we go to Winnipeg." The Indian's inscrutable countenance gave no indication as to whether or not he believed this.
"Bah! you keep away from those cages." "How did you dare to do that?" asked Andy, as the boys came out of the menagerie. "Why, I'll tell you," explained Luke. "I love animals, and most times they seem to know it. Once a lion tamer summered at our farm on account of poor health. He told me a lot of things about his business. One thing I tried just now.
