These illnesses came as regularly as the backend of the year, but were less regular in going, and through them all, by night and by day, I see my sister moving so unwearyingly, so lovingly, though with failing strength, that I bow my head in reverence for her. She was wearing herself done.
I had sought long and unwearyingly for the clue to the secret of life imperishable and love eternal, was the mystery about to be unveiled? I could not tell and I dare not humour the mere thought too long.
It is Hayoue, who has come from the north at last, his heart guiding him to that friend whom he has so bravely, so unwearyingly sought. Another Indian rushes down after Hayoue, his motions not less anxious, not less rapid and determined. He makes his way to the body and falls down upon his knees, staring with heaving chest but tearless eyes into the placid, emaciated face. It is Zashue Tihua.
I used to sit by her side while she talked unwearyingly of him. He was a thing of infinite perfections. He had such a lot of hair. "She won't believe, sir," said the nurse, "that it will all drop off and a new crop come." "Oh-h!" said Carlotta. "It can't be so cruel. For it is my hair see, Seer Marcous, darling; isn't it just my hair?" It was her great solicitude that the boy should resemble her.
He has already manifested his power to make me give him more than the law allows; and I have been warned against him in vain. For the first sensation of having a human being for a horse, trotting between shafts, unwearyingly bobbing up and down before you for hours, is alone enough to evoke a feeling of compassion.
And meanwhile, of course, deep down in his soul there was forming the new work, that some day would emerge and take possession of him, driving everything else from his consciousness. People would repeat to him, over and over, their dreary formula "Get a position! Get a position!" And patiently, unwearyingly, Thyrsis would set himself to explain to them what it was like to be inspired.
And then at last he was well enough to go out a little; but a few days after he avoided the inner garden now out of a sort of horror he was sitting in the sun, near the house, feebly trying to amuse himself with one of his old games how poor they seemed after the fruits of the inner paradise, how he hankered desirously after the further place, with its hot, sweet, fragrant scents, its rich juices! when again his guardian came upon him in a sudden wrath, and struck him many times, dashing him down to the ground; and again he crept home, and lay long ill, and again his guardian was unwearyingly kind; but now a sort of horror of the man grew up in the mind of the child, and he feared that his strange anger might break out at any moment in a storm of blows.
And from the heart of the flaring cup rose and soared a lark, drunk with the berries and the sun. And Christophe's soul was like the lark. It knew that it would soon come down to earth again, and many times. But it knew also that it would unwearyingly ascend in the fire, singing its "tirra-lirra" which tells of the light of the heavens to those who are on earth below.
With the greatest difficulty restraining an emotional outburst, she felt the warmth return even to Mrs. Liebling's soles, which she had been rubbing unwearyingly with her palms, hard as flat-irons. The rescued woman was carried to bed and packed in hot water bottles, like a premature baby.
She could not say a dozen words without lapsing into endless repetitions of his sayings and his doings. But Satin, like a good-natured girl, would listen unwearyingly to everlasting accounts of how Nana had watched for him at the window, how they had fallen out over a burnt dish of hash and how they had made it up in bed after hours of silent sulking.
