1 John withdrew without having observed me.
2 I hurried on my frock and a shawl; I withdrew the bolt and opened the door with a trembling hand.
3 I soon withdrew, for I had talked as much, and sat up as long, as my present strength would permit.
4 I advanced; then paused by the crib side: my hand was on the curtain, but I preferred speaking before I withdrew it.
5 Mrs. Fairfax folded up her knitting: I took my portfolio: we curtseyed to him, received a frigid bow in return, and so withdrew.
6 He and his aids now withdrew behind the curtain: the other party, which was headed by Colonel Dent, sat down on the crescent of chairs.
7 He gave each one quiet kiss, said in a low tone a few words of welcome, stood a while to be talked to, and then, intimating that he supposed they would soon rejoin him in the parlour, withdrew there as to a place of refuge.
8 The moment Miss Scatcherd withdrew after afternoon school, I ran to Helen, tore it off, and thrust it into the fire: the fury of which she was incapable had been burning in my soul all day, and tears, hot and large, had continually been scalding my cheek; for the spectacle of her sad resignation gave me an intolerable pain at the heart.
