"And I have been in paradise," he replied. "You do not think that I am wicked?" "I could sooner believe the sun would never come up again." "Nor that I have been unwomanly?" "You are my dream of all that is glorious in womanhood." "Yet I have followed you have thrust myself at you, fairly at your head, Alan." "For which I thank God," He breathed devoutly.
Mooween, on his part, is always looking for you when once he has learned that you have moved into his woods. But not from any desire to see you! He is like a lazy man looking for work, and hoping devoutly that he may not find it. A bear has very little curiosity less than any other of the wood folk.
I devoutly wished my duty had permitted me to do the same. The speaker then went into a long dissertation on the primal sin; the gist of which was that though the woman had never been warned not to eat of the Forbidden Fruit, she had to bear the brunt of the punishment.
"I think not, for the laborer is worthy of his hire, and also of all reasonable creature comforts." And thus it went on. I would not acknowledge myself in the wrong; nor, arguing how I might, could I find aught but good in my labors. I devoutly hoped to be able to put the matter in the same light when I stood at the bar in Polly's judgment hall. The day was clear, cool, and stimulating.
"I devoutly trust you are not serious?" said Dean Silver then. "Oh, but I am!" she said, with a nervous laugh. For answer he merely shrugged his shoulders again. In silence they turned toward the house. "That is an actual settled fact, is it?" Silver asked, when they were at the steps. "Why, yes!" Martie answered, feeling a strange inclination toward tears.
But the bullets did not come their way, instead they rang among the rocks which they had just left. Tayoga laughed softly. "They think we are still there," he whispered, "and they send much lead against the inoffensive stone. The more the better for us." "I'm devoutly glad the rocks catch what is intended for us," said Grosvenor, feeling intense relief.
Though Mrs Westray senior poured out the vials of her wrath on Anastasia for having refused to become Mrs Westray junior, she was at heart devoutly glad at the turn events had taken. At heart Westray could not have said whether he was glad or sorry.
Julian most devoutly ascribes his miraculous deliverance to the protection of the gods, who had exempted his innocence from the sentence of destruction pronounced by their justice against the impious house of Constantine.
Fishermen took off their hats, holding them awkwardly in their red hands. Fisherwomen looked down at the rough boards and crossed themselves devoutly. The cortège passed on. Turning from the dock they threaded their way down the narrow street leading to the town. As they neared the alien docks, the dusky fishermen uncovered and drew together, awed by the presence of the great shadow.
So I ask for the poor man's wife not only admiration and consideration, but, if you will, some degree of pity also. I would we could make her burdens easier, her sorrows less, and her pleasures more numerous. Most devoutly I hope that the time may soon arrive when "rent day" will be less dreaded, and when the collector will be satisfied with a less proportion of the family's earnings.
