Glowing and lovely in sensibility and happiness, and more generally admired than she thought about or cared for, she had cheerful or forbearing feelings for every creature around her. Mr Elliot was there; she avoided, but she could pity him. The Wallises, she had amusement in understanding them. Lady Dalrymple and Miss Carteret they would soon be innoxious cousins to her.
The true criterion is, not whether the Government, or an individual may supply the article, but whether the article itself be noxious or innoxious. The Government may not supply me with powder why? Not because I may have recourse to the market, but because the article is noxious. A case in point occurred when I was in Cadiz recently.
When after some expenditure in the purchase of plant and material, and no little labour, the couple of beehives that formed the original stock of a project for the harvesting of the nectar which had hitherto gone to waste or been disposed of by unreflecting birds, had increased to a dozen, and honey of pleasant and varying flavour flowed from the separator at frequent intervals, hopes ran high of the earning of a modest profit from one of the cleanest, nicest, most entertaining and innoxious of pursuits.
But the exploits of the hunters of Scythia are not confined to the destruction of timid or innoxious beasts; they boldly encounter the angry wild boar, when he turns against his pursuers, excite the sluggish courage of the bear, and provoke the fury of the tiger, as he slumbers in the thicket.

The politics of the women are no longer innoxious their political principles form the leading trait of their characters; and as you know we are often apt to supply by zeal what we want in power, the ladies are far from being the most tolerant partizans on either side.
When we shall have a constant supply of pure water a complete system of efficient and innoxious sewers a service of street hydrants when the Thames shall cease to be the cloaca maxima, are questions to which, however seriously asked, it is not easy to get an answer.
This puling jargon is not as innocent as it is foolish. In meddling with great affairs, weakness is never innoxious. It is the common doom of man, that he must eat his bread by the sweat of his brow, that is, by the sweat of his body or the sweat of his mind.
"Your majesty has sworn to take the life of no one; very well, you keep your word as to physical life we do not destroy the body but the spirit of this boy Ivan!
