"The cow lows for its calf The calf bleats for its mother: My father and mother Are weeping for me at home." When he heard her lament like this the merchant's son exclaimed "You women are all alike, come let us go back." "How can we go back now?" answered the girl "You of course can pretend that you have been hunting; but we women lose our character if we are hidden by a bush for a minute."
Her bleats were so full of sadness that it seemed as if she were already exhaling her soul toward death at the very thought of leaving Francis. As she stood there in silence, her lamb, seized by some strange melancholy, was suddenly heard, crying like a child.
But now the roof is again whole; the fresh grass grows where learning sank; the little lamb bleats up there, and the old dame stands beneath, in the low doorway, with folded hands, with a smile on her mouth, rich in remembrances, legends and songs, rich in her only lamb on which the cherry-tree strews its flower-blossoms in the warm spring sun.
He had a very deliberate, even way of speaking, and in certain words so broadened the a's that, almost doubled in length by this treatment, they sounded like little bleats. His 'yes' was on two notes and became a dissyllable. After he had answered all her questions he took up the thread himself. He had tactfully relinquished her hand at a certain moment in her talk.
He does not speak, or have any particular opinions, but when the time comes, begins to dance. He bleats out a word or two to his partner during this operation, seems very weak and sad during the whole performance, and, of course, is set to dance with the ugliest women everywhere.

"Vice!!" he cried with derision, and sat up and faced her. "Vice! my dear Mada! sweet, innocent child! ... No, no.
In order that she might not be harassed by its tendance, a gigantic Scotch herder, six feet six inches high and twenty-five years of age, showed how far involuntary inanity can coexist with presumptive sanity as he led it about, the creature holding back heavily at every step and now and again tangling itself, its cord, and its disconcerted bleats about its conductor's long and stalwart legs.
Isn't it unusual in one so young and er tender and timid that she recalls Keats' dissertation on woman, "she is like a milk-white lamb that bleats for man's protection." 'Oh, so she's been bleating, has she? I said cruelly. 'It makes it all the more astonishing that she should have leanings toward the study of serious literature. 'Who told you she had? 'She told me so herself.
Even Sofia could see that it had been cleanly severed by a knife. Victor's countenance was ablaze as he dropped the rope. Before the tempest of his wrath the Chinaman bent like a reed, with faint, protesting bleats and feebly weaving hands.
They rode on it for three or four miles, and at length, coming to a gray-green valley, they saw a huge flock of sheep. Soon the air was full of bleats and baas as well as the odor of sheep, and a low, soft roar of pattering hoofs. The flock held a compact formation, covering several acres, and grazed along rapidly. There were three herders on horses and several pack-burros.
