A single word spoken by John Durer would have restored his ancient benefactor to court, and replaced him in the Emperor's favor. But vanity is without a heart; and wounded pride never forgives him who has wounded it. One day the fine young lord took a fancy to go and visit all the spots in which, once on a time, he had dreamed away so many anxious hours.
He believes that I shall be dismissed, or else he wouldn't have laid stress upon the importance of my keeping my position. When I spoke of May he was curt. And the explanation? He has wronged me. The old French proverb holds true, 'The offender seldom forgives. He'll probably go on to harm me further, for I remind him of his vileness.
It was sly of him to impersonate old Morley. I wonder how he got to know that you were meeting him? Someone must have betrayed Rayne. I have a suspicion who it may be. If he has, then woe betide him! Rudolph never forgives an enemy or a blunderer." I tried to get from Duperré the reason why the hunchback had met Rayne in such secrecy, but he would divulge nothing.
God forgives without any sacrifice; his love and his desire to meet with love surpass all that human relationships can show; his constancy is like that of the returning seasons, or of the stars. He yearns over Israel as a father over a wayward son, and will leave nothing undone that he can do to bring his son back to him. He will alter all his former plans to bring about that result.
But they hearkened not unto the voice of admonition. They persisted in their sins, and their well-merited punishment overtook them. God forgives all sins, only not an immoral life. And as all these sinners led a life of debauchery, they were burnt with fire. The angels left Abraham at noon time, and they reached Sodom at the approach of evening.
He let it fall on his knees, and said, in a subdued voice, "My God! my God! and he asked forgiveness, and forgives me!" Then, with frantic exclamation, he continued: "Wretch that I am, would that I had died for thee, my son my son!" and clasping his hands over his head, he fell back in a state of insensibility.
We all, surely, know the story How Joseph's brethren envy him and sell him for a slave into Egypt how there for a while he prospers how his master's wife tempts him how he is thrown into prison on her slander how there again he prospers how he explains the dreams of Pharaoh's servants how he lies long forgotten in the prison how at last Pharaoh sends for him to interpret a dream for him, and how he rises to power and great glory how his brothers come down to Egypt to buy corn, and how they find him lord of all the land how subtilly he tries them to see if they have repented of their old sin how his heart yearns over them in spite of all their wickedness to him how at last he reveals himself, and forgives them utterly, and sends for his poor old father Jacob down into Egypt.
He expresses, at least, the noblest and most appropriate sentiments. He is gentle and strong, magnanimous, generous, heroic. He is without malice, and is ready to sacrifice himself to repay me for what I have done for him. He forgives Madame Gerdy; he loves Albert. It is enough to make one distrust him. But all young men now-a-days are so. Ah! we live in a happy age.
Poor, polluted, down-trodden idol! Maurice Maurice my husband, I have come. Evelyn, your wife, forgives you, as she hopes for pardon at the hands of her God."
I didn't expect He would when I did them. But it wasn't fair not to let me live out my life! I'm too young to die! And I'm afraid! I'm AFRAID!" "Yes. God forgives all those things! There was a woman once who had been like that, and Jesus forgave her. He will forgive you if you ask Him. But He can't forgive you unless you are sorry and really want Him to.
