Its explanation would seem to be found in connection with certain facts stated respecting the opening of the preceding seals that voices followed them.
Such assurances Spain might have refused she would have refused them to France. To us she might, she did give them, without lowering her dignity. He pronounced a high-flown eulogy upon M. Arguelles; he envied him, he said, for many things, but he envied him most for the magnanimity which he had shown in sparing his Sovereign. I am glad to have occasioned this explanation.
Pity engulfed her, a passion of pity for the poor woman who a second time had fallen under the spell of an unscrupulous man. Cecil's explanation had fallen on deaf ears, for Claire could accept no excuses for a man who borrowed from a woman to ensure comfort and luxury for himself. An officer in the King's army!

But if you persist to go by the next packet, I beg you here to receive my best wishes and those of my family for your happy voyage. Upon you, my dear sir, I much depend to give our friends in the United States a proper explanation of the state of things in Europe. You have been very attentive to what has passed since the Revolution of 1830.
As a rule, when boys do not quite understand one of their number they dislike him. Philip Fletcher was an exception.
