Methinks their intentions were not friendly." "I thank you very much for your counsel," Philip said, "and will take it.

I know that there are some who would gladly hinder me, in my journey; and if there is, as you say, a risk of their coming here for me, it were as well that I rode farther, although I would gladly have given my horses a night's rest.

I thank you warmly for having warned me." "Do not let my husband know that I have spoken to you," she said.
"He is an honest man, but timid; and in these days 'tis safest not to meddle with what does not concern one." Philip waited for two hours, and then told Pierre to saddle the horses, and tell the landlord that he wished to speak to him.
"I have changed my mind, landlord," he said, "and shall ride forward.

The horses will have rested now, and can very well do another fifteen miles; so let me have your reckoning.

You can charge for my bedroom as, doubtless, it has been put in order for me." Philip saw that the landlord looked pleased, though he said nothing; and in a few minutes the horses were brought round, the bill paid, and they started.
