They forged letters, in which the king atrociously expressed joy at the murder of Henry III., and declared his determination by dissimulation and fraud to root out Catholicism entirely from France. No efforts of artifice were wanting to render the monarch odious to the Catholic populace.
Modelled in the same spirit are all Pope's pretended portraitures of women; and the more they ought to have been true, as professing to be studies from life, the more atrociously they are false, and false in the transcendent sense of being impossible.
Now, what we wish to secure is a word that shall contain within itself all the essential principles of downright abuse; the mere pronouncing of which in the public street would subject one to the inconvenience of being rent asunder by an infuriated populace-something so atrociously apt and so exquisitely diabolical that any person to whom it should be applied would go right away out and kick himself to death with a jackass.

I think I'll put a little more work on it and give it a chance in Paris. I got in once, you know. Champ de Mars. With some horses. 'Did you, indeed? I said. 'Capital. I asked him if he didn't atrociously miss the life of the Quarter, and he surprised me by saying that he never had lived it.
I can't tell you what we talked about, because sometimes well, it was atrociously risqué as women will, you know, and " "At a quarter before twelve you were still sitting up talking, and you had your kimonos on?" "Yes, and oh, you just ought to see Hazel's new kimono pink crêpe de chine, trimmed with satin. She looks simply ravishing in it. I told Sis I wanted one like it, but "
