626. lappuse - A very clear account, upon my word ! and I dare swear the lady will vouch for every article of it.
522. lappuse - Oh, purty fair. (He begins to look at her as if he were seeing her for the first time, noting every detail with a numb, stunned astonishment). EMMA. You're looking as well as ever. CALEB, (dully) Oh, I ain't got nothin' to complain of. EMMA. You're the same as me, I reckon. (Happily) Why I seem to get feelin' younger and more chipper every day, I declare I do.

Then, with both mittened hands, he scooped the bunch of matches, along with much snow, into his lap. Yet he was no better off. After some manipulation he managed to get the bunch between the heels of his mittened hands. In this fashion he carried it to his mouth.

The sight of the dog put a wild idea into his head. He remembered the tale of the man, caught in a blizzard, who killed a steer and crawled inside the carcass, and so was saved. He would kill...

530. lappuse - The blazing matches fell sizzling into the snow, but the birch-bark was alight. He began laying dry grasses and the tiniest twigs on the flame. He could not pick and choose, for he had to lift the fuel between the heels of his hands.
