Young and I caught our breath, drew our arrows from their quivers, nocked them, and set ourselves in the archer's "stable stand." We drew together and, at a mutual thought, shot together. Because of our unsteady condition the arrows flew a trifle wild. Mine buried itself in the lion's shoulder. Young's hit him in the nose.
This proved to be a young spike-buck, his horns not having as yet branched off into antlers. "About a quarter of a mile farther down, a fourth, deer was shot at, and missed, the dug-out having grazed suddenly against a rock just as I was pulling trigger, thus rendering my aim unsteady.
Old Belz put the stuff into an earthenware bottle, which he corked with a corncob. Michael started for home by the zigzag path which led up the steep limestone bluff, but his steps were slow and unsteady; he sat down on a rock, and took another dose out of his bottle. He never went any further of his own motion, and we buried him next day.
He looked her full in the face as he said it, and she quivered a little before the mastery of his look. He laid a hand upon her knee as she sat above him in sore perplexity. "Would you have me do anything else?" he said. She answered him with a conscious effort. "I want you to love and marry the right woman."

She was a thin little woman, with an unsteady head, physically and morally speaking; full of kindness of heart, sentimentality, high-flown principles, and other bygone ladylike commodities. Her small, eager face, of a ruddy and weather-worn complexion as if she had, at some early period of her existence, been left out all night in an east wind was puckered up with a sense of her own negligence.
The rap had been faltering and feeble. Jalisco's hand sought the knife he always carried. "Who is it?" he demanded. The reply to this question was a repetition of the hesitating knocking. "Who are you? and what do you want?" sharply cried the Mexican lad. "I am very sorry to disturb you," said a cracked, unsteady voice. "I have the next room. You can do me a favor." Now Felipe was lonesome.
It is possible, that with these principles others may have been blended, which are not equally evident; and some which are unsteady and subvertible from the narrowness or imperfection of their basis.
It was surely a better place than this? 'You know what the old proverb says, Master Willie: "Change is lightsome," said John, beginning to dig, as if he would fain stave off the explanation. 'Ha, John, that wont do! said I; 'your mind was never so unsteady.
