"You were toying with me! You were deceiving me! It was a part of your amusement! You knew you had fascinated me and bewitched me, and it gave you pleasure to toy with me! Ah, this hurts more than everything else!" "I did care for you," she asserted faintly. "You did care in a way, perhaps." "You never told me that you loved me." "Because you would not give me a chance.
They can't really stop us, Fleur!" "They can! I tell you, they can." "How?" "We're utterly dependent by putting money pressure, and all sorts of other pressure. I'm not patient, Jon." "But it's deceiving them." Fleur got up. "You can't really love me, or you wouldn't hesitate. 'He either fears his fate too much!" Lifting his hands to her waist, Jon forced her to sit down again.
He trusted, therefore, that the Emperor would find himself attacked by his Hungarian subjects to rearward, while he was engaged with the combined French and Bavarian forces in front. It was a very fine scheme. But there was one man, and only one, who saw through it Marlborough. At once the Duke set off southwards, carrying with him also a force of Dutchmen, deceiving their rulers by a ruse.
I hope it isn't. But Ned has a madness for fair women. He'd do anything on earth for them. He loses his head entirely." "That he may have been imprudent " Mrs. Lovell thus blushingly hinted at the lesser sin of his deceiving and ruining the girl. "Oh, it needn't be true," said Algernon; and with meaning, "Who's to blame if it is?" Mrs. Lovell again reddened. She touched Algernon's fingers.
The commanding position of Ottomond's tomb appeared the key of the whole battleground; and Marlborough determined to make his main attack on this point, first deceiving the enemy by a feigned attack on their left. Accordingly, he formed, in a conspicuous position, a heavy column of attack, opposite the French left, and menacing the village of Autre Eglise.
But here I assume that there is no hereditary taint; here I am convinced, from my own observation, that the nobility of the organs, all fresh as yet in the vigour of youth, would rather submit to death than to the permanent overthrow of their equilibrium in reason; here, where you tell me the character preserves all its moral attributes of gentleness and purity, and but over-indulges its own early habit of estranged contemplation; here, without deceiving you in false kindness, I give you the guarantee of my experience when I bid you 'hope! I am persuaded that, sooner or later, the mind, thus for a time affected, will right itself; because here, in the cause of the malady, we do but deal with the nervous system.
"God knows how far he may be indulging a false hope, or deceiving himself altogether; but he thinks it possible that you might might become fond of him. There, Margaret, that's the long and the short of it. And when I told him that he had better say that himself, he declared that you would not bring yourself to listen to him while I am lying here dying." "Of course I would not."
But examine the passions and feelings of mankind, bring the doctrine of reconciliation to the touchstone of nature, and then tell me whether you can hereafter love, honor, and faithfully serve the power that hath carried fire and sword into your land? If you can not do all these, then are you only deceiving yourselves, and by your delay bringing ruin upon your posterity.
The Indian at once comprehended by her looks that she was pleading his cause. "May the blessing of the God of my fathers light on you and yours!" he cried, kneeling at her feet. My father thought as she did; but he had learned not to give way on a sudden to the impulse of his feelings, and he wished to ascertain that the Indian was not deceiving him before he promised his protection.
If history has ever furnished a lesson, how an unscrupulous tyrant, who has determined upon enlarging his own territories at the expense of his neighbours, upon oppressing human freedom wherever it dared to manifest itself, with fine phrases of religion and order for ever in his mouth, on deceiving his friends and enemies alike, as to his nefarious and almost incredible designs, by means of perpetual and colossal falsehoods; and if such lessons deserve to be pondered, as a source of instruction and guidance for every age, then certainly the secret story of the negotiations by which the wise Queen of England was beguiled, and her kingdom brought to the verge of ruin, in the spring of 1588, is worthy of serious attention.
