At the last restoration the older parts were repaired with Hackfall stone, and the later parts with limestone from Quarry Moor and Monkton Moor, and so extensive were the repairs needed on the exterior, that the church somewhat belies, by its appearance, its real antiquity. The most picturesque approach is from High St.
Undoubtedly, the traitor Mason shows in England more of fire than does the cold, stiff, prickly, and dignified son and grandson of Presidents; and then the average of our press! O, Jemima! In his circular, September 22, to our agents in Europe, Mr. Seward belies not himself. The emancipation is rather coldly announced, and it is visible that neither Mr. Seward's heart nor soul is in it.
Is not that son of mine a child of the prison? Myself. I beg your pardon, I was not aware of that circumstance; it of course makes much difference. Lady. I believe you. I am a daughter of that prison, my father was alcayde, and my son might hope to be so, were he not a fool. Myself. His countenance then belies him strangely: I should be loth to purchase that youngster for a fool. Gaoleress.
Now these visionaries at least the true ones honour each other according to the degree of "eye" that each possesses. By "eye" the collector means a faculty of discerning a fine object quickly and instinctively. And, in fact, the trained eye becomes a magically fine instrument. It detects the fractions of a millimetre by which a copy belies its original.
"I have had plenty of sleep, Cuthbert, and am perfectly well," she said, cheerfully. "Then your look belies you," he said, "but I know that it is no use arguing. What has been happening outside?" "Nothing. The troops were withdrawn the day after the fight when you were wounded, and nothing has been done since." "How is Dampierre getting on?" he asked.
Good-by, until we meet at the church, Lord Arondelle," she said, as she floated from the room in her bridal robe, and vail. "Who says that she is not beautiful, belies her? She is lovely in person and in spirit," murmured the young marquis, as he took up his hat to leave the house.
Must we assert the objective doubleness of the M merely because we have to name it twice over when we name its two relations? Candidly, I can think of no other reason than this for the dialectic conclusion! for, if we think, not of our words, but of any simple concrete matter which they may be held to signify, the experience itself belies the paradox asserted.
"Shall I answer?" says Dulce to herself, half uncertainly; and then she hesitates, and then belies the old adage because she is not lost, but decides on maintaining a discreet silence. "If he comes," she tells herself, "he will only talk, talk, TALK! and, at his best, he is tiresome; and then he worries so that really life becomes a burden with him near.
"Sweet one," answered Don Juan, with a slight laugh, "thou hast learned, within yonder walls, a creed of morals little known to Moorish maidens, if fame belies them not. Suffer me to teach thee easier morality and sounder logic. It is no dishonour to a Christian prince to adore beauty like thine; it is no insult to a maiden hostage if the Infant of Spain proffer her the homage of his heart.
In this instance, however, it was reasonably certain that the singer did not show himself intentionally; for unless the whole tenor of his life belies him, the winter wren's motto is, Little birds should be heard, and not seen. Two days afterward I was favored again in like manner.
