Mary deplored the necessity for herself. "Nobody knew how much she should suffer. She should put it off as long as she could;" but was not easy till she had talked Charles into driving her over on an early day, and was in a very animated, comfortable state of imaginary agitation, when she came back. Anne had very sincerely rejoiced in there being no means of her going.
The Englishman was leaning across the table, his cheek-bones red and his eyes dangerous. "By God, Jusseret, don't go too far!" he cautioned. The Frenchman raised his hands in an apologetic gesture, but his eyes still held a trace of the malevolent smile. "A thousand pardons, my dear Martin," he begged. "I meant only to be sympathetic." THE DEATH Of ROMANCE IS DEPLORED
We only lost two of our own numbers, neither of whom were officers. The deepest dejection was painted on every face; each, having recovered himself, could now feel the horrors of his situation; and some of us, shedding tears of despair, bitterly deplored the rigor of our fate. A new misfortune was now revealed to us.
And so with more tears, shrieks, and curses, the impotent wretch vented his grief and deplored his unhappy fate; and, in the midst of groans and despair and blasphemy, vowed his miserable repentance. The honored proverb which declares that to be an ill wind which blows good to nobody, was verified in the case of Sir Francis Clavering, and another of the occupants of Mr.

Cynthia, he thought, had these qualities, so necessary for the wife of one who would succeed to power though whence she had got them Isaac Worthington could not imagine.
The prestige of his great name and the power of his great intellect were turned over to slavery, and the friends of freedom deplored and trembled for the result. There was some general knowledge through the country of the immorality of Southern men in our national capital.
And a few days later, when Father Maguire told his uncle that the Salvationists had come to Kilmore, and that he had walked up the village street and slit their drum with a carving knife, his uncle had not approved of his conduct, and what had especially annoyed Father Tom was that his uncle seemed to deplore the slitting of the drum in the same way as he deplored that the Kavanaghs had a barrel of porter in every Saturday, namely, as one of those regrettable excesses to which human nature is liable.
"I'm a chump to flare up for nothing, Chief," deplored Jim; "next time I do it give me a swift push into the alley." The engineer only shook his head good-humoredly, while he was giving his brown mustache a final twist before the glass; Jim was looking with interest at a photograph of a lad upon the wall. A well set up boy, with a grave, straightforward look.
He knew their literary quality, and their rank in the literary, world; but I believe he was surprised at the passion I instantly conceived for them. He could not understand it; he deplored it almost as a moral defect in me; though he honored it as a proof of my critical taste. In a certain measure he was right. What flatters the worldly pride in a young man is what fascinates him with Thackeray.
