"My daughter," she said to Miss Banks, "I want medicine." "Yes, but I cannot give you medicine in such a huge pot." "My daughter, I have been three days on the road, and I want much medicine."
The rush hours. What are the rush hours? From eight to ten, and at six. Since he did not pull off his show in the morning, we are fairly justified in concluding, tentatively, that the water-pot was not full by then, and, as the Atlas phenomena subsided at three of the morning before, the inference is obvious."
"I thought my block looked smaller," said I, rapidly comparing Jack's paper and my own, with a feeling for size developed by my labours. "Has she got a water-pot?" asked Jack. "She is sure to have," said I pointedly. "She always takes her own materials with her." "How fortunate for those who do not!" said Jack. "Now, Margery dear, don't look sulky.
They were seized, their backs were broken, and they were crushed into a calabash or water-pot and taken out not by the doorway, but by a hole broken in the back wall, which was at once built up and thrown into the bush, where they were left to be eaten by insects and wild beasts.

The standard of Drona, the foremost of preceptors, bore the device of a golden altar decked with a water-pot and the figure of a bow.

The prophet or preacher, who walked last, carrying in his arms the great water-pot, was the president of the temple, and learned in the ten books, called hieratic, relating to the laws, the gods, the management of the temples, and the revenue.
There were plenty of small craft moored to rings along the quay, and selecting a canoe it was no time to stand on niceties of property easily managed by a single paddle, I brought it round to the steps, put in a fresh water-pot, and went for the princess.
Looking westward, their colors are lost in a blaze of light; but in other directions the whole forest is a flower-garden, in which these late roses burn, alternating with green, while the so-called "gardeners," walking here and there, perchance, beneath, with spade and water-pot, see only a few little asters amid withered leaves. These are my China-asters, my late garden-flowers.
