Market-place

The last coffee and donuts of my holiday were consumed at Finland's best market-place café, right on Market Square.

The market-place continues to maintain its former dimensions, and constitutes the favourite resort of the juvenile portion of the population.

The drum ruffed, and the pipe screamed in the market-place, and away I went to see what was to happen.

A few months after the murder of Don Carlos, the Counts de Horn and d'Egmonte, who had long been detained in prison, notwithstanding their innocence, were put to death by the cruel Alva in the market-place at Brussels, and the heads of these two patriotic martyrs were exposed upon pikes to the view of the populace.

But there was no man to greet them in the market-place, and no woman’s face appeared at the windows—only a bodiless voice went before them, calling: ‘Fallen is Imperial Kôr!—fallen!—fallen! fallen!’

Thinglets fit only to wrap candles in, or make winding-sheets in Lent for pilchards, or keep butter in the market-place from melting.

It is possible to discern several important sources of patronage and artistic market-places, though it would be inappropriate to suggest that they were necessarily distinct and unrelated.
