FIRST CUIRASSIER. And we, the Walloons, must doubtless be gone. SUTLER-WOMAN. Why, of all our squadrons these are the best. FIRST CUIRASSIER. To march where that Milanese fellow leads on. FIRST YAGER. The infant? that's queer enough in its way. SECOND YAGER. The priest then, egad! there's the devil to pay.
So heartily sick in the end grew I That my mind was the desk again to try; When suddenly, rattling near and far, The Friedlander's drum was heard to war. SERGEANT. And how long here may you mean to stay? FIRST YAGER. You jest, man. So long as he bears the sway, By my soul! not a thought of change have I; Where better than here could the soldier lie?
SERGEANT. Thus, Yager, I like thee thou speakest, I vow, With the tone of a Friedland trooper now. FIRST YAGER. 'Tis not as an office he holds command, Or a power received from the emperor's hand; For the emperor's service what should he care, What better for him does the emperor fare? With the mighty power he wields at will, Has ever he sheltered the land from ill?
Henry looked at us with his peculiar humorous expression, and proposed that we should follow Ellis to see how he would kill a fat cow. As soon as he was out of sight we rode up the hill after him, and waited behind a little ridge till we heard the report of the unfailing yager.
"As fer me, I ain't hesitatin' to say I like the second-handed ones best." "I suppose they are better broke in. But no other woman but me would 'a' looked at Mr. Smelts." "You can't tell," said Mrs. Snawdor. "Think of me takin' Snawdor after bein' used to Yager an' Molloy! Why, if you'll believe me, Mr.
The hat on his head was shot thro' and thro', In coat and boots the bullets that flew Left traces full clear to all men's view; But none got so far as to scratch off his skin, For the ointment of hell was too well rubbed in. FIRST YAGER. What wonders so strange can you all see there? An elk-skin jacket he happens to wear, And through it the bullets can make no way.
FIRST YAGER. In my life it ne'er was a thought of mine Whether we suited each other or not, I let myself go with the rest of the lot. FIRST CUIRASSIER. I quite agree in the sergeant's opinion They'd fain have an end of our camp dominion, And trample the soldier down, that they May govern alone in their own good way. 'Tis a conspiration a plot, I say! SUTLER-WOMAN. A conspiration God help the day!
She canvassed the alley for delinquent husbands to admonish, for weddings to arrange, for funerals to supervise the last being a specialty, owing to experience under the late Mr. Yager. Upon one of the occasions when she was superintending the entrance of a neighboring baby into the world, her own made a hurried exit.
SECOND YAGER. We're not to be driven the country about, Let 'em come here, and they'll find it out. FIRST ARQUEBUSIER. Good sirs, 'twere well to bethink ye still, That such is the emperor's sovereign will. TRUMPETER. Oh, as to the emperor, we needn't be nice. FIRST ARQUEBUSIER. Let me not hear you say so twice. TRUMPETER. Why, 'tis even so as I just have said.
Once having tasted the joys of invalidism he was loathe to forego them, and insisted upon being regarded as a chronic convalescent. Nance might have managed Mr. Snawdor, however, had it not been for the grave problem of Fidy Yager. "Ike Lavinski says she ought to be in a hospital some place," she urged Mrs. Snawdor. "He says she never is going to be any better. He says it's epilepsy."
