Dutton comes back, and we are settled, will you let me have him?" "Ah, well," said the woman, half disappointed, for she did not care for Archie, "ye'll have forgotten all about it by then." There woman's voice flows forth in song, Or childhood's tale is told; Or lips move tunefully along Some glorious page of old. Hemans.
Though Hippy had been the only one to confess it, the plaintive melody of Nora's song of Golden Summer haunted them. With summer at high tide in each heart, it was, as Hippy had remarked, not quite pleasant to be reminded even tunefully that life holds the inevitable autumn. "I really believe Hippy meant what he said about that song," Tom remarked meditatively to Grace.
After a brief space, occupied with another mighty yawn, it loudly and tunefully requested some person or persons unknown to superintend its owner's obsequies. "Lay a garland on my hearse Of the dismal yew; Maidens, willow branches bear; Say I died true. My love was false, but I was firm From my hour of birth. Upon my buried body lie Lightly, gentle earth...."
But the Radicals were in power to legislate and crush agriculture, and "I've got a miser for my brother-in-law," said the farmer. Alas! the hundred pounds to back him, he could have sowed what he pleased, and when it pleased him, partially defying the capricious clouds and their treasures, and playing tunefully upon his land, his own land.
Down on it all shone the polished and hearty sun, birds chinned on every tree, though it was late in the year; blackcock whirred across the alders, and sturdy heifers bellowed tunefully, knee-deep at the ford.
It was Kid Wolf's second day on the Llano Estacado, and his usual good spirits had returned. His voice rose tunefully and cheerily above the steady drumming of Blizzard's hoofs. Surely the scene that lay before his eyes could not have aroused his enthusiasm. It was lonely and desolate enough, with its endless sweeps dim against each horizon.
The brooks and rivers rushed tunefully along, birds by the thousands were singing and calling, insects were buzzing, trees and plants of many sorts were pouring their fragrance over the whole valley; and above it all stood the sun, shedding down its glittering light. But these things failed to arouse in Lisbeth the feelings they usually awakened.
She was always like that always thinking of other people's comfort, never sparing her own labor. Then he heard her voice at a distance somewhere near the cowhouse. She had not gone up-stairs after all; she had gone out there on dairy business. Soon she came singing back singing, he thought, as blithely as a lark; just as sweetly and tunefully as any bird one could name.
"Good-day, sir," cried Marmaduke heartily, suspending his musical performance for a moment. "Glad to see you. Heard you were gone to the Front. Glad to see it's a false alarm again." "But my heart's right there," he added tunefully, keeping time on the top of a barrel with his fingers. "How's things going in the Army, Major Harrison?" put in Mr. Holmes, seeing the Major looking slightly annoyed.
So the Watchman was a playground for my mother and me my sister, my elder by seven years, was all the day long tunefully busy about my father's comfort and the little duties of the house and, on that blue day, we climbed the broken cliff behind our house and toiled up the slope beyond in high spirits, and we were very happy together; for my mother was a Boston maid, and, though she turned to right heartily when there was work to do, she was not like the Labrador born, but thought it no sin to wander and laugh in the sunlight of the heads when came the blessed opportunity.
