Captain Hardinge began to unbuckle it; but the General said, in his usual tone and manner, and in a distinct voice, "It is as well as it is; I had rather it should go out of the field with me." Six soldiers of the 42nd and the Guards bore him.
"Oh never mind, I can stand it, for it isn't the first time they have buckled a piece of skin in; beside you could not unbuckle it with your teeth or feet." "No, but I can chew the girth in two if you don't mind being pinched a little more while I am doing it," said Billy.
"You will take particular care of this horse, young man walk him about a little; wash his back with salt and water. Just unbuckle the saddle-bags; give them to me. Oh! safe enough, I dare say, but papers of consequence. The prosperity of the colony depends on these papers. What would become of you all if any accident happened to them, I shudder to think."
She knelt at the prisoner's feet and began to unbuckle the strap about his ankles; shrinking a little at first at the touch of him, but resolutely conquering her disgust. Mr. Rogers put down a hand to prevent her. "You never mean to set him free?" "That is what I ask," she answered, with an upturned look of appeal.
But if you will keep within the house, I will tell the man that you are dead, and will offer him the young Englander Egbert in your stead." "Would you then tell the man a falsehood?" cried Olaf. "Gladly, if by doing so I still keep you with me, for I would not lose you for all the world." Olaf, obedient to his uncle's word, began to unbuckle his belt.

Cleopatra was close behind me, propped against the wind. I drew myself up by the near stirrup, till I could unbuckle the water-bag from the cantle. Though filled with half a gallon of water not two hours before, it was now half-empty.
Oliver tried to help him, but he could not do much, the horse was so deep in the snow. And, besides, he was standing, or rather lying, in such a position, that many parts of the harness were drawn so tense, that Oliver had not strength enough to unbuckle them. However, Jonas at length got the sleigh separated from the horse, and drew it back out of the way.
So frozen and stiff were his fingers that he was unable to unbuckle the strap which fastened it; but, drawing his dagger, he at last cut through this, and removing the stopper of the flask, took a long draught of the wine with which it was filled. The relief which it afforded him was almost instantaneous, and he seemed to feel life again coursing in his veins.
The victor, seeing him lie without motion, alighted immediately and began to unbuckle his helmet, in which office he was assisted by the trumpeter.
Unbuckle the portmanteau, Gerrit, and give your young master a blanket." "Yes, my lord. But wouldn't it be better for you to go in here until the shower is over? Holy Florian! "Just see that piece of ice in your horse's mane! It's as large as a pigeon's egg. Two horses are already standing under the shed, and Quatgelat's beer isn't bad." The baron glanced inquiringly at his son.
