Katy was too much pleased with this compliment to make any resistance, while he buckled her close to his own herculean frame, and, driving a spur into his charger, they flew from the lawn with a rapidity that defied further denial.

"I insist upon it, Lucy, that you recall your unqualified denial," Lady Verner was saying. "If you will not accept Lord Garle immediately, at any rate take time for consideration. I will inform Lord Garle that you do it by my wish." "I cannot," replied Lucy in a firm, almost a vehement tone. "I you must not be angry with me, Lady Verner indeed, I beg your pardon for saying it but I will not."

Here then was the explanation of Armour's seeming curious lack of output, and plain denial of the supposition that he spent the whole of his time in doing the little wooden 'pochade' things whose sweetness and delicacy had so feasted our eyes elsewhere.

their duty is the mark, their honour but the outward rind. Neither would I advise them to give this excuse for payment of their denial: for I presuppose that their intentions, their desire, and will, which are things wherein their honour is not at all concerned, forasmuch as nothing thereof appears without, are much better regulated than the effects: "Qux quia non liceat, non facit, illa facit:"

If he was a little extravagant in every way for a day or two before making so eventful a voyage, he felt that Denasia ought not to complain. Alas! it is not the renunciation of our past and future selves that is difficult; it is the steady denial of our present self which makes the disciple.

His face, as he looked at her, was a refusal to reply, and so it was not a denial. "Live for the day as it comes," he said, "and do not think about to-morrow." "That is my philosophy.

Nicolas, for a moment, seemed about to make a denial, but Hal eyed him steadily, and he said at last: "It is under this floor here," and he tapped the floor with his foot. "All right," said Hal. "In shape to be carried?" "Why yes, I guess half a dozen men could carry it well enough." "I am glad to hear that," said Hal, "because I want you to dig it out right now."

She agreed, therefore, to see Blifil, though she had scarce spirits or strength sufficient to utter her assent. Indeed, to give a peremptory denial to a father whom she so tenderly loved, was no easy task.

To the former title she had no other claim than her denial of the naked principle already mentioned, while her practice is liable to the reproach of the two latter, in the unmanly and narrow character of its exclusion, in every act of her foreign policy, and in every measure of her internal police.

He was also especially charged, in case he should be arrested, not to make a confession as had been done by those previously employed in such work as all complicity with him on part of his employers would certainly be denied. The miserable dupe was arrested, convicted, executed; and of course the denial was duly made on the part of the archduke, La Motte, and Assonleville.
