He seemed to be brooding over his sorrows at the time his officer entered. "A prisoner waits without," said the officer. "He is a stripling; and says he has urgent business to communicate to you alone." "Send him hither, and let every one get out of ear-shot!" said Gadarn gruffly. A minute later Cormac appeared, and looked wistfully at the chief, who looked up with a frown. "Are you the pris "
He spoke of the infinite peace of the heart that knows the true meaning of love, which is giving and blessing, and the true secret of courage, which is loyalty to the truth. He spoke of the God whom we can trust as a child trusts its father, and of the Heaven which waits for all who do good to their fellowmen.
"What can I have the pleasure?" he says, bowing forward at me, and with his eye on my chin and so waits. Now I hate incomplete sentences, and confound his pleasure! I don't go into a shop to give a shopman pleasure. But your ordinary shopman must needs pretend you delight and amuse him. I say, trying to display my dislike as plainly as possible, "Gloves."

The ebb and flow of humanity, the labors of the copyists, the diverse types of passing human nature, all interest the padre. He has waited in vain for responses to his frequent letters to Judge Hardin. Perhaps the Judge is dead. Death's sickle swings unceasingly. The little heiress may have returned to her western native land. He waits and marvels.
With her women she waits the day when the bell shall call to prayer in Mariposa. Wandering by Lagunitas, the wife strays in fancy to far lands beyond the ocean.

"I want some hot water," said Fred, grumpily.
"The question, therefore, simply resolves itself into this: Can you forgive me? If you can forgive me, I can come to you at once. If this thing is past forgiveness, I must make up my mind to stay away. But, oh, my own Dear, the bosom on which once you laid your head waits for you with the longing ache of lonely years. If you need it, do not thrust it from you."
The men at work on deck, with usual Mongolian nonchalance, went about their business without giving the least notice to the events occurring. "The lady Priscilla waits you in the cabin," said Dom Pedro. "She knows my plans and though I shall not intrude upon you I have a Chinese on guard who will kill you if any attempt is made to free you. Enter."
However, "all things come to him who waits," and the day to which the boys looked forward with so much anticipation was no exception to the rule. They were at the station long before the train was due, and it seemed hours to them before they heard its whistle in the distance.
A man was leaning in the shadow of a tree, looking down into the Hollow. I could not see him very distinctly because, though evening had scarcely fallen, the shadows, where he stood, were very dense, but he was gazing down into the Hollow in the attitude of one who waits. For what? for whom?
