She gave him a note, which he dismounted to take, she vouchsafing no greeting, not even a look, and standing apart while he read it, with the air of a martyr to duty. Mr. I've took a dum chill, and it has hit me in the vitals through standing in water up to my armpits.
Peter, a pension of one penny a-year for each house, and to preserve intact the rights of the Church in that country; we, regarding favourably, and vouchsafing to thy petition our gracious assent, hold it to be a grateful and acceptable thing, that thou shouldst enter that island, to extend the boundaries of the Church; to stem the torrent of crime; to correct morals; to introduce virtue; to augment the Christian religion; and to execute what thy mind may have found good for God's honor, and the country's prosperity.
Towards sunset the rain was over, and with the sun came forth abundant indications of the island life. The gardener walked among the garden-beds and measured his morrow's work, calculating time and means within his reach, and vouchsafing some attention to the flower-garden, as was evident when he paused before it and made his thoughtful survey.

'Giles, Giles, she screamed, as he seemed about to leave her, 'you may kill me if you like, but you shall not look at me like this. But, without vouchsafing her any answer, he turned to me. 'Will you wait with my cousin a moment? I will be back directly. I nodded assent.
The guide-book told me so, vouchsafing also the information that after building the house he "interested himself actively in local affairs, became a naturalized citizen, and served successively as postmaster, alderman, and mayor" a model immigrant, surely, though it is rather the way of immigrants, perhaps, not to refuse political responsibilities.
