"Your majesty," he said, joyfully, "the young lion has fallen into the net that we set for him." "He goes then to Berlin, to the queen-mother?" asked the king, quickly. "He begs your majesty's permission to take this little trip." "He really charged you with this commission?" "Yes, sire: it appears that his obstinacy is beginning to relent, and that he thinks of submitting."
When she hears of Thrasyllus's suit, she rejects it with scorn and horror; and then at night her dead husband appears to her and describes exactly what happened, and begs her to avenge him. She requires no urging, and almost immediately decides on the course that her vengeance shall take. She has Thrasyllus informed that she cannot come to any definite decision till her year of mourning is over.
R begs to express his thanks for your kind sympathy in his recent bereavement," etc. It would save a world of letter-writing to a person who does not care to write letters, and it would be a very pleasant token to receive when all other such tokens are impossible. For people leave their cards on a mourner, and never know whether they have been received or not.
But all the time, as we know, he had it in his mind. In Lycidas, written in his Cambridge days, he apologizes to his readers for plucking the fruit of his poetry before it is ripe. In passage after passage in his prose works he begs for his reader's patience for a little while longer till his preparation be complete.
But to think of him is futile; for I shall keep my word, and never address him again unless he first begs my forgiveness for insulting me at Ravenna, when he called me a demon. Never, never, and he will not do that, and there is no hope of help from him. You shall know the result of your work one day, Fan, and how placable this heart is.
Prince Louis wrote to me, beginning his note in these words, "The person called Louis of Prussia begs to know of Madame de Stael, &c." He felt the insult offered to the royal blood from which he sprung, to the recollection of the heroes, in the roll of whom he burned to place his name.
'Tis strange indeed that a father sits sheltered at home while his little one runs barefoot and begs." "What do you mean?" whispered the young woman anxiously! "What the Lord and every one knows, but no-one's told you. Look you at the child there faces don't tell lies, she's the image of her father.
They were both more than usually grave; but the look of inquiry and suspicion with which they regarded the two women was gone from their eyes. "The Senor Comandante says you are free, Senoras, and begs you will only decide whether you will remain his guests or the guests of the Alcalde. But for the present he cannot allow you any communication with the prisoners of San Antonio."
In the general drawing room they made things up between them, and after ten minutes Zociya, the housekeeper, shoved in her little, squinting, pink, cunning face through the half-open door of the private room. "Jennechka," she called, "go, they have brought your linen, go count it. And you, Niura, the actor begs to come for just a minute, to drink some champagne. He's with Henrietta and Big Manya."
Desborough! here was a Colonel Desborough never mind! Come!" She dreads to. She begs not to. She is drawn away. The woods are silent, and then "What think you of that for a pretty pastoral?" says a very different voice. Adrian reclined against a pine overlooking the fern-covert.
