Then, as if his feelings were under control again, came back, and took one of Joan's and one of Dick's hands into his own toil-worn palms, and said: "Thanks, Dick! It's more'n I deserve, this knowin' both of you, and havin' you give me a share in the Cross! And I accept it; but conditionally." He dropped their hands, and turned to look around, as if seeing a very broad world.
Talbot's service to supply the place of a maid who bad sickened with fever and ague, and had to be sent back to her native Hallamshire. Ere long Mr. Heatherthwayte came down to offer his consolation, and still more his advice, that the little foundling should be at once baptized conditionally, if the lady preferred it.
Futile Edward's attempts to shift the conversation to the subject of his own obsession; the German was by far the more aggressive, he would have none of it. Perhaps if Edward had been willing to concede that the Bumpuses had been brought to their present lowly estate by the sinister agency of the fair sex Chris might conditionally have accepted the theme.
He therefore calmed the Court of Vienna by promising that he would discourage any rising in Austrian Poland, and he held forth the prospect of regaining Silesia. This tempting offer was made secretly and conditionally; and evoked no expression of thanks, but rather a redoubling of precautions.

It is one thing for a woman to love a man at arm's length conditionally; it is another for her to take him to her heart and trust him. Does every millionaire who makes love to a penniless widow mean to marry her? for Margaret was poor on that Tuesday in Newport.
Satisfied with the justice of their pretension to be placed on the same footing with Holland, I could not, never the less, without disregard to the principle of our laws, admit their claim to be treated as Americans, and at the same time a respect for Congress, to whom the subject had long since been referred, has prevented me from producing a just equality by taking from the vessels of Holland privileges conditionally granted by acts of Congress, although the condition upon which the grant was made has, in my judgment, failed since 1822.
She took him in hand, yanked him outer himself, put his foot on the bedrock, and made him what you see him now.
