During the time it lasted, we invariably found that the house was cooler than the open air, and that in proportion as the wind was excluded, was comfort augmented.

The sum total of the actual liabilities of the Association, that is, of debts and obligations which it is bound at some time or other to pay, is much exceeded by the cost value of its property.
We have already exceeded the proposed length of our visit, and shall set out for St. Omer to-morrow. Yours. St. Omer, September, 1792.

I was real fond of you, for you far exceeded my expectations; but I'm not fond of you now one bit.
I learnt many things during that drive the depth of her love, the height of her courage, the ecstasy of her bliss. And she, too, she must have learnt many things from me the warmth of my gratitude to her, a warmth which was only exceeded by the transcendent fire of my affection.
