"No time is lost in which one has been happy!" said Felix, with a bright sententiousness which may well have been a little irritating. "And in which," rejoined his sister, with a harsher laugh, "one has secured the affections of a young lady with a fortune!" Felix explained, very candidly and seriously.

The Archangels, you see, are few, and their business very great." Isoult agreed. Of Prosper Alice could not get a clear image. When Isoult was upon that theme her visions blinded her, and sent her for refuge to abstractions. She candidly confessed that he did not love her; but then she did not ask that he should. "But you pray, 'Give him me all," Alice objected.

"Stay," interrupted the other, on whose countenance a slightly stern expression hovered. "Before you give me unreserved confidence, it is but fair that I should tell you candidly that I cannot pay you back in kind. As to private matters, I have none that would be likely to interest any one under the sun. In regard to other things my business is not my own.

To live for you, and next to you for my family, is the highest wish that I have on earth. I can candidly say that in this moment there is no one whom I love more than you. Is that enough for you?"

Carson spoke with exceptional solemnity to the men, telling them candidly that, "unless something happens the evidence of which is not visible at present," he could discern nothing but darkness ahead, and no hope of peace.

Since I am in the mood for confessions, let me candidly admit that my own attitude has a somewhat similar duality. Though I curse in these pages, I bless like Balaam when it comes to the point.
