He told me that M M had informed him of my escape, and he had flattered himself that the first person I should go and see in Paris would be himself. He shewed me the letters from M M relating to my arrest and escape, but all the details in the latter were purely imaginary and had no foundation in fact.

Also this sent the balloon higher, and so into a position still more convenient for observation by our imaginary angel who would next have seen Mr. Smallways tear open his own jacket and waistcoat, remove his collar, open his shirt, thrust his hand into his bosom, and tear his heart out or at least, if not his heart, some large bright scarlet object.

He takes wings and floats up and down the imaginary waves, circling higher and higher, his sweet notes growing more rapturous until finally they reach their climax as he goes abruptly skyward.

Such built up imaginary histories of him and his actions, which only resembled each other in the quality of remoteness from truth. Once it happened that at a small gallery, off Bond Street, the sudden sight of precious things brought new emotions to Joe Noy sentiments and sensations of a sort more human and more natural than those under which he was at present pursuing his purpose.

Oh, my sins, my sins!" "Your sins are imaginary, Henry," almost irritably responded Count Vavel. "I swear to you, by the peace of my own soul, that the load beneath which you groan is not sin, but virtue.

It occurred to him that when the moon is precisely dichotomized that is to say, precisely at the half-the line of vision from the earth to the moon must be precisely at right angles with the line of light passing from the sun to the moon. At this moment, then, the imaginary lines joining the sun, the moon, and the earth, make a right angle triangle.

He is an excellent hunter, and at my instigation has been taking lessons in drawing, so that he is now able to sketch from nature such objects as may be desirable. We often pass delightful moments in our imaginary travels through unknown countries, building thus our castles in Spain.
