I'm happy this little volume came out this year. (Still working to find a publisher for all of _PhiloSophia_.) But I'm also glad I got to meet Sezgin Boynik in October, and I hope you'll consider purchasing any of the editions published by Rab-Rab Press.

His left foot was to be set a little in front of the other, and he was to turn very slightly aside, the left shoulder forwards.

God has been good to one—positively; for I couldn't, at my age, have made a new friend—undertaken, I mean, out of whole cloth, the real thing.

Bevis had to study his position at the moment when he stopped and lifted the gun.

No—that's more charming to me than even your hitting it off with Kate.

The governor, however, desirous that they should excel, gave them a good drilling in this way.

What makes it perfect is that it should have come about through our dear delightful Susie, restored to me, after so many years, by such a miracle.

As the most constant patience (being too farre ptouoked) conuerteth into furie: so a wrathfull louer is more to be feared, than a sauage monster that hath no reason.

Bevis and Mark knew very well how to shoot, both from actual if occasional practice, and from watching those who did shoot.

I had another goal in mind, but found myself one day wandering around what I'm thinking of as PoMoParis. Here's Jardin Atlantique, above the Gare Montparnasse.
Looking at the frames on the backsides of silhouetted "rocks" or "cliffs" (?) in the Jardin Atlantique, set among walkways through varied vegetation. Here you can see a row of pines in the near distance, some different species of pine and spruce in the foreground and at the edges of the frame. Large modern steel and glass apartment buildings are visible at the borders of the garden.

With the breech-loader you can in a moment remove the very possibility of accident by pulling out the cartridges and putting them in your pocket.

Above all you must help me with Kate, and you must stay a little for her; nothing for a long time has happened to me so good as that you and she should have become friends.

There was hardly a part of the muzzle-loader which in some way or other did not now and then contribute to accidents.

You mustn't be under a mistake—under any of any sort; and you must let us all think for you a little, take care of you and watch over you.

They were fortunate in living in the era of the breech-loader, which is so much safer than the old muzzle-loading gun.

"You must stay on with us; you can, you know, in any position you like; any, any, any, my dear child"—and her emphasis went deep.

The end of all my thinking is
The goal you have in mind:
An amiably winking phiz
And no child left behind.

Les très riches heures could put a stop
To what the present knows:
Increasing spam, abundant slop,
And vaunting Ortho Bros.

Bevis had accompanied his governor several autumns in the field, and shot occasionally, and he had been frequently allowed to try his skill at the starlings flying to and fro the chimney.

As without threed, a needle serues to no vse: so neither the pleasures of loue, without due prosecution; and though a needle haue two, three eyes or more, by reason whereof it carries as many threeds with it, yet it makes but one entrance, marry it makes the worke the faster:

In truth, the prohibition had long been rather hollow, more traditional than effectual.

It was a matter of equal ease, moreover, her letting Mrs. Lowder take a tone.

As a teen, Jimi Hendrix sketched Elvis after attending one of his concerts. Decades later, it’s hard not to notice that the figure resembles a future public personality known chiefly for… the hair. And the noise.
