Summary
And this night, I know not upon what ground, the gates of the City [were] ordered to be all shut, and double guards everywhere, and we are going upon making of all ships coming from thence and Hambrough, or any other infected places, to perform their Quarantine (for thirty days as Sir Rd. Browne expressed it in the order of the Council, contrary to the import of the word, though in general acceptation it signifies now the thing, not the time spent in doing it) in Holehaven, a thing never done by us before.

"Yes, and I broke it off myself. Do people really think I can jilt a man and still have him after me?"
"Oh, Emily," said Aunt Laura, her blue eyes filling. Of course, people did think that, as people in general were wont to do, and especially about the fascinating Emily Byrd Starr who had had a Japanese prince in love with her once.

And she promised herself and Ossin, and Ash and the puppies, that she would try to stay here, for as long as the length of their lives; that she could put her strength now and hereafter toward staying and not fleeing. But I do not know how strong I am, she said. I cannot promise.

Lying in the grass, Ash's breath as steady and comforting as the breeze through the grass had been on the Lady's hill, all too many lifetimes ago, the memories would creep up, surprising her with their clarity, and leave her just as suddenly as she awoke, pulse-quickened and sweaty-palmed and utterly alert in the quiet.

And somehow the thought of New York just seemed so final and so far away to Tim, maybe it was because of Jay, whom he'd only seen a handful of times since he'd moved away, or maybe Tim had just needed one final little push, and that was it.

They moved on - Street and his family, Lyla and her ambition, Smash and his golden legs, Matt and his soul that was always too tender for Texas. Tim realized a long time ago that he's not going anywhere - he's holding down the fort, putting down roots - both real and metaphorical - in this place they all dreamed of escaping from.

It was a little like heaven, Cissy thought, or hoped. When she told Valancy this Valancy kissed her forehead and said she thought heaven would be far better; but Cissy would almost prefer this. There would be room for her in a shabby backwoods cottage overgrown with wild pansies and damp running creeks.

Bookmarker's Notes
At her command, an entire barge's shipment of factory-made straight-razors and assorted debris marched in lockstep — and plunging in and out of the storm was Uther Doul, parrying every slouch and stroke of the golems, his blade everywhere at once. The thaumaturge's image stood on the deck, arms outstretched, ankle-deep in gore.
