Стр. 123 - Den ersten besten Mann, Der ihr in den Weg gelaufen ; Der Jüngling ist übel dran. Es ist eine alte Geschichte, Doch bleibt sie immer neu ; Und wem sie just passieret, Dem bricht das Herz entzwei.

Стр. 278 - ... irritation, totally unable to follow her philosophic sister's example, and fidgeting uneasily about the room. " Who indeed ? " rejoins Sarah equably. There is something in the indifferent content of her voice that jars upon Belinda's mood. The dogs have taken their cue from Miss Churchill — Punch has got inside the fender as if it were winter ; the cat lies lazily stretched just outside the parrot's cage ; and Polly, exasperated by her air of calm security, is walking. stealthily, head downwards,...
Стр. 155 - A thousand times the worse, to want thy light! — Love goes toward love as schoolboys from their books; But love from love, towards school with heavy looks.
