In the meantime Gaspar Mendez was slowly recovering the injuries he had received, and was of course expected to give a more explanatory account of what had happened to him after he left Forni on his way to Alessandro Malfi's. That he had been robbed as well as wounded was already known his brother and sister having found his pockets empty and his watch gone.
Instead the room was empty, but the gas was flaring high, and all about was more than the customary disorder; there were evidences that Emeline had left home in something of a hurry. The girl searched until she found the explanatory note, and read it with knitted brow. "I'm going to Santa Rosa on important business, deary," Emeline had scribbled, "and you'd better go to Min's for a few days.
But the others looked astonished. Armand had but asked a simple question, and Blakeney's reply seemed almost like a rebuke so circumstantial too, and so explanatory.
They utter no word of their own. Art. IV., Sec. 6, closes their mouths with this uncompromising gag: "They shall make no remarks explanatory of the Lesson-Sermon at any time during the service." It seems a simple little thing. One is not startled by it at a first reading of it; nor at the second, nor the third.
At all events no theory of telepathy which has been advanced to date can be said to be explanatory, when all the facts are taken into consideration; and if this first tentative groping serves to stimulate others to speculate, and above all to experiment, in this obscure field, I shall feel that a first onward step has been taken toward a correct understanding of the "Marvels of Telepathy."
That means again by the same inference, "the other prince go," the one who makes pretensions to being rightful heir to the throne. "Thy will be done" includes by the same inference this: "the other will be undone." This is the first great explanatory clause to be connected with this greatest prayer, "Thy kingdom come." It gives the sweep of God's will in its broadest outlines.
It was inevitable, therefore, that he should at once have recourse to both on such an emergency as the present one. At the same time that he sent his answer to the nobles, he wrote an explanatory letter to the Regent.
This entire book is only a continued demonstration of this principle of education. Finding out the East. The Forest of Montmorency. I do not like explanatory lectures; young people pay very little attention to them, and seldom remember them. Things! things! I cannot repeat often enough that we attach too much importance to words. Our babbling education produces nothing but babblers.
An explanatory act, designating the class of officers out of which this grade is to be filled whether from the military list as existing prior to the act of 1821 or from it as it has been fixed by that act would remove this difficulty. It is also important that the laws regulating the pay and emoluments of officers generally should be more specific than they now are.
He stood before her, dignified, eminently worthy of the great name he bore a solitary, dark-eyed, inscrutable man, whose whole being subtly suggested hopelessness and an empty life. She shook her head. "But I cannot accept the Casa d'Erraha on those terms." The Count drew forward a chair and sat down. "Listen," he said, with an explanatory forefinger upheld.
