It won't do for a white man to be rummaging too much about these mountains; the Indians say they are full of bad spirits; and I believe myself that it's no good luck to be hunting about here after gold.
"If you love me as I love you, No knife shall cut our love in two." "Well, I do," replied Dotty, with an affectionate hug, "and I sha'n't go near the water." "You won't forget?" said Prudy, anxiously. "You know mamma's as afraid of the water as she can be." "What are you after?" cried Angeline, half a minute afterwards. "Of all the rummaging children!"
Whether it was that the countrywoman saw in this act a determination to escape her claims, or that she was blinded by passion, I cannot say; but she rushed into the next room, where I heard the sounds of quarrelling, with which the cries of the child were soon mingled. The joiner, who was still rummaging in the till, was startled, and raised his head.
I'll see to that, though," answered Rose, trying to decide whether Annabel or Emma should have the laced handkerchief. "Confiding creature! Suppose I open the wrong drawer and come upon the tender secrets of your soul?" continued the new secretary, rummaging out the delicate notepaper with masculine disregard of order. "I haven't got any," answered Rose demurely.
Shotaye had been rummaging about in the inner cell of her rocky house in search of some medicinal plant, for that cell was her storeroom, laboratory, and workshop. But as the room was without light at all, she had entered it with a lighted stick in her hand; and just as she had begun her search the flame had died out.
Just because you see me happy for a minute, you want to worry me and stir me up. Find another pair. 'Good for you that Dick can't wear your clothes, Torp. You two live communistically, said the Nilghai. 'Dick never has anything that I can wear. He's only useful to sponge upon. 'Confound you, have you been rummaging round among my clothes, then? said Dick.
You haven't got such a thing as twopence, Mr Nickleby, have you? said Squeers, rattling a bunch of keys in his coat pocket, and muttering something about its being all silver. 'I think I have, said Ralph, very slowly, and producing, after much rummaging in an old drawer, a penny, a halfpenny, and two farthings. 'Thankee, said Squeers, bestowing it upon his son. 'Here!

She ought not to have gone rummaging among his things! "I've taken your shirt and washed it," she said serenely, "but you can have it again this evening. After all, you can wear this until then." She laid one of Lasse's shirts on the coverlet.
"Come on, let's dig into this and see what we have to work with." That invitation was unnecessary, for several of the lads were rummaging through the chest while others were inspecting the machine and still others were wandering through the building looking their new quarters over. So occupied were they in this pleasant occupation that they completely forgot the time.
Reading was my new hobby; my heart beat with impatience to run over the new book I carried in my pocket; the first moment I was alone, I seized the opportunity to draw it out, and thought no longer of rummaging my master's closet. I was even ashamed to think that I had been guilty of such meanness; and had my amusements been more expensive, I no longer felt an inclination to continue it.
