``That's whut Mart calls hit. He was over to the Gap last Fourth o' July, an' he says fellers over thar fix up like Kuklux and go a-chargin' on hosses and takin' off them rings with a ash-stick--`spear,' Mart calls hit. He come back an' he says he's a-goin' to win that ar tourneyment next Fourth o' July. He's got the best hoss up this river, and on Sundays him an' Dave Branham goes a-chargin' along here a-picking off these rings jus' a-flyin'; an' Mart can do hit, I'm tellin' ye. Dave's mighty good hisself, but he ain't nowhar 'longside o' Mart.''英文原著 · 《A Knight of the Cumberland》

So the morning hummed along; luncheon-time came, the silver was all cleaned, the stockings changed, and there was roast chicken. Thomas, with his wicked eyes, came slowly, majestically upon the scene--but even he was not sinister to-day, being interested in his own greed rather than other persons' sins. All this time Maggie refused to think. Martin would come, then she would see. Martin . Martin . Martin . She went up into her bedroom and whispered the name over and over to herself whilst she tried to mend her stocking.英文原著 · 《The Captives》
And even if he did come back he mightn't want me. So I'm not going to waste time about it. I shall find work and make myself useful somewhere, but I shall always love Martin just as I do now."
"You're rery young," said Miss Avies, touched in spite of herself. "Later on you'll find some one much better than young Warlock."
"Perhaps I shall," said Maggie. "But what's the use of that if he isn't Martin? I've heard people say that before--some one's 'better' or 'stronger' or 'wiser.'--But what has that got to do with it? I love Martin because he's Martin. He's got a weak character you say.英文原著 · 《The Captives》
So pleased with herself was she that she behaved with unusual forbearance toward Martha whose conduct of late had been most trying. Not Martha's sometimes peevish, sometimes plaintive criticisms of her; these she did not mind. But Martha's way of ordering her own life. Jane, moving about in the world with a good mind eager to improve, had got a horror of a woman's going to pieces--and that was what Martha was doing.英文原著 · 《The Conflict》
And in a little while I shall be altogether in love with her again. "Queer what a brute I've always been to Martin." "Queer that Martin can come in a dream to me and take the upper hand with me. "Queer that NOW--I love Martin." He thought still more profoundly. "By the time the Committee meets again I shall have been tremendously refreshed." He repeated:--"Put things on the Higher Plane and keep them there. Then go back to Martin. And so to the work. That's it. ." Nothing so pacifies the mind as a clear-cut purpose.英文原著 · 《The Secret Places of the Heart》
