Miss Cardigan pushed her work-baskets and table away, and drew her chair up beside mine, before the fire; and made it blaze, and sat and looked into the blaze, till I wondered what was coming. "I suppose this is all a fixed thing between Christian and you," she began at last. I hardly knew what she meant. I said, that I could not unfix it. "And he will not, no fear!
"Sweet bodements! good!" cried Macbeth; "who can unfix the forest, and move it from its earth-bound roots? I see I shall live the usual period of man's life, and not be cut off by a violent death. But my heart throbs to know one thing. Tell me, if your art can tell so much, if Banquo's issue shall ever reign in this kingdom?"

Guns flash no longer: the sky is gold and serene; dawn stands there like Victory that will shine, on one of these years when the Kaiser goes the way of the older curses of earth. Dawn, and the men unfix bayonets as they step down from the fire-step and clean their rifles with pull-throughs.
Distinctly he heard behind him a stealthy tread, as of some wild animal, and dared not look over his shoulder. Had the soulless living joined forces with the soulless dead? was it an animal?

Take this to the lawyer and tell him to unfix that hero's bayonet, or he will charge at the double and be the death of his own money and yours." Walter threw up his hands with amazement and admiration. "What a head!" said he. "Fiddledee!" said Mary; "what a heart!" "In a word, a phoenix," said Hope, dryly. "Praise is sweet, especially behind one's back.
"Father," said Simon, abruptly, "methinks your presence were more useful in yonder chapel, aiding your brethren in the discharge of their clerical duties, than in troubling and unsettling the belief of an humble though ignorant Christian like myself." "And wherefore say, good brother, that I would unfix thy principles of belief?" answered Clement.

"Well, what shall I say?" said Ellen, laughing.
I was lying on the sofa, with a book and a wine-glass, at about that time, when the door opened, and a gentleman in a stiff cravat, within a year or two on either side of thirty, entered, in his hat and gloves; walked up to the looking-glass; arranged his hair; took off his gloves; slowly produced a measure from the uttermost depths of his coat-pocket; and requested me, in a languid tone, to 'unfix' my straps.
