"Ben gallivantin' off an' temptin' the boys to play," declared Miss Jerusha, with a shrewd nod of her brown front. "Oh, I know." "We won't say any more about it now, dear," said Mrs. Henderson gently, at sight of the hot little face. "There, get into your chair, this one next to me. Where's Peletiah?" looking about.
"Stay a little," she said with bashful boldness. The joy of giving was rapidly growing to a vice. "Here's something for them," she added, nodding towards his fellows, and a second shilling came from her pocket. "Just as you say, yer leddyship," he said with owlish gravity; "but for my part I think they've 'ad enough. I don't 'old with temptin' the weak passions of man."
I do hope we shall be pervented from takin' cold temptin' Providence the way we have, at our time o' life. Nate, he won't stir no more to-night. He's too tuckered out an' too well fed. Sleep's the best medicine for him, so we'll shut up quiet like an' start. But where in the world'll you get clothes, as you said?
When he realized that admiring eyes could not follow him forever, he checked the horse and rubbed his chest. "It hurts, all right! but hoss-shoes is a sign of luck and posies is a sign of love and them two signs sure come together this mornin'. 'Oh, down in Arizona there's a No, I reckon I won't be temptin' Providence ag'in.
We found him in the dining room, a nearly empty whisky-bottle beside him. "I had to gang awa'," he explained thickly; "he was temptin' me to murder him. I should ha' had to do it if I had stayed. Damn his hell-music." Tcheriapin revisited Dr. Kreener on many occasions afterward, although for a long time he did not bring his violin again.
As lots ob de sailors went ashoah fur 'sertion as well as fur 'musement, de navay people winked dere lef' eye at de tricks ob ole Tom. After a while de sailors got to belibe dat he wah under de pay ob de gove'ment, an' many a red-hot cannon ball ware sec'etly dropped ober de side to Tom, yafter firs' temptin' him wid nice pieces ob salt junk.
"That's what I must do then," said Lavinia resignedly. "Thank you kindly." "You're welcome, I hope as how that pretty face o' yours won't get ye into trouble. It's mighty temptin'. I'd like a kiss myself." "Would you? Then you won't have one. As for my face, I haven't any other so I must put up with it."
"I'm kind o' silly, mother, but I can't help it you look so temptin'," said Samson. "She looks like an angel," said Harry, as he improved his chance to embrace and kiss the lady of the cabin. "The wind has been peckin' at us all day," said Samson. "But it's worth it to get back home and see your face and this blazin' fire." "And the good, hot supper," said Harry, as they sat down at the table.
Did you know anything 'bout it, Eri?" "Why, yes, a little. I met Hazeltine yesterday, and he told me that some folks out West had made him a pretty good offer, and he didn't know whether to take it or not. Said the salary was good, and the whole thing looked sort of temptin'. He hadn't decided what to do yit. That's all there is to it." There was little else talked about during the meal.
Why, the sinfulness o' those men, who was diggin' out the power an' temptation to sin from the place where God had hidden it. He meant that it should stay there forever; but now it'll be handed down from generation to generation, as is King Solomon's gold, temptin' our sons' sons to lose their souls as ours were lost."
