Here and there some slight appearance of a valley might be traced which had been formed by the action of the waters; but such breakings of ground were inconsiderable, and did not suffice to interrupt the stern sameness of the everlasting moorland.
But by and by there arose sectarian quarrels with other backwoods folk who also wished to worship God in Kentucky, and hot personal disputes among the members as is the eternal law. So that the church grew as grow infusorians and certain worms, by fissure, by periodical splittings and breakings to pieces, each spontaneous division becoming a new organism.
It is clear to me that the surfs as above described are peculiar to those climates which lie within the remoter limits of the trade-winds, though in higher latitudes large swells and irregular breakings of the sea are to be met with after boisterous weather. Possibly the following causes may be judged to conspire, with that I have already specified, towards occasioning this distinction.
That very evening they were gradually nearing each other the one from the smithy, the other from the shop with another pair between them, however, going toward Testbridge Godfrey Wardour and Hesper Redmain. "How strange," said Hesper, "that after all its chances and breakings, old Thornwick should be joined up again at last!"
But as old Joe, who followed them down the cliff said, there was no end to the trouble Muff caused, what with stealing fish, and upsettings and breakings; and she would be happier at aunt Martha's, where there was neither fish nor child, and more room to walk about in than Muff enjoyed here. "But how kind of Jenny," said Edith, "how thoughtful for Muff!"
It is at last spread cold lamb, cold partridges, chickens, mayonnaise, cakes, pastry they have just been arranged in their defenceless nakedness under the eye of heaven, when the rain begins. And, when it begins, it begins to some purpose. It deceives us with no false hopes with no breakings in the serried clouds with no flying glimpses of blue sky.
And how doth the breakings of the body and church of Christ wound the spirit of Christians, and oftentimes occasion the spirit and life of Christianity to languish, if not to expire! How needful is it, then, that we endeavour 'the unity of the spirit in the bond of peace? Second, I now come to show you wherein this unity and peace consists, and this I shall demonstrate in five particulars.
Where are the brisk boys of the City who were said to be longing for me? Where are the breakings out from Berwick to Portland which they foretold? Not a man hath moved save only these good peasants. I have been deluded, ensnared, trapped trapped by vile agents who have led me into the shambles. He paced up and down, wringing his hands and biting his lips, with despair stamped upon his face.
'Weighed' for 'after death the judgment, and a godless life, when laid in the balance which His hand holds, is 'altogether lighter than vanity. 'Breakings' for not only will the godless life be torn away from its possessions with much laceration of heart and spirit, but the man himself will be broken like some earthen vessel coming into sharp collision with an express engine.
Aye, and I have heard that many a fine young gentleman had a hand in the work, and went about at night at the head of a band dressed as Rebecca. Well, sir, those breakings were acts of violence, I don't deny, but they did good, for the system is altered; such impositions are no longer practised at gates as were before the time of Rebecca."
