But you mustn't move till I tell you."
Reluctantly Yorke discounted his first impressions. Here was no self-conscious bravado. Warily he surveyed George for a moment the cool appraising glance of the ring champion in his corner scanning his challenger then, swinging out of the saddle, he dropped his lines and began to unbuckle his spurs. There was no mistaking his actions. Redmond followed suit.
Now, unbuckle him at once, dame, that he may write in my name a letter of thanks to this noble Fleming.

"I herald the coming of the law," she said. "The law! Bah! Red tape, a dead language, and a horde of shysters! I'm afraid of law in this land; we're too new and too far away from things.

It will not hurt you, but it will lift me out of hell." Murphy's eyes were cunning, treacherously shifting under the thatch of his heavy brows; he was like an old rat seeking for any hole of refuge. "Well maybe I might. Anyhow, I'll go on with ye. Kin I sit up? I 'm dog tired lyin' yere." "Unbuckle your belt, and throw that over first." "I'm damned if I will. Not in no Injun country."
They had reached Kingozi's camp under the great tree. He began to unbuckle his equipment. "I'll just lay all this gorgeousness aside," said he apologetically.

"I should suppose so."
No warrior of old was ever more completely enveloped in his hard coat-of-mail, with its jointed greaves and overlapping scales, than is the lobster in its crustaceous covering; with this exception, that the warrior could at pleasure unbuckle himself from his armour, whereas the body and limbs of the crustacea are completely incased in hollow cylinders, firmly and accurately jointed, from which there is no such ready release.
Unbuckle the portmanteau, Gerrit, and give your young master a blanket." "Yes, my lord. But wouldn't it be better for you to go in here until the shower is over? Holy Florian!
