"Well, then," said Amy, trembling, "it follows that we can be miserable in paradise." "Paradise is life," said the poet. Amy was silent and remained with her head lifted, comprehending at last that the whole poem was simply a reply to her question and that he had revived in her soul a loftier and a juster thought. "Life is exalted to perfection as it ends," the poet went on.
The rebel party was everywhere increased by all who had joined the young king, "not because they thought his the juster cause," but in fierce defiance of a rule intolerable for its justice and its severity. England was no less ready for rebellion. The popular imagination was still moved by the horror of the archbishop's murder.
He paused for breath, and then continued, with a contemptuous laugh: "If the justice which you rate higher than logic were to take its course, nothing would be juster than to make an end this day of this hot-bed of corruption. But your unlearned fellow-citizens shall taste of my justice, too.
In an age of religious intolerance it inspired the President DE THOU to inculcate, from sad experience and a juster view of human nature, the impolicy as well as the inhumanity of religious persecutions, in that dedication to Henry IV., which Lord Mansfield declared he could never read without rapture.

The volunteer organizations arising under Grant and continuing active to the present day have been effective molders of public opinion along these lines.
Do you suppose I would not stick to my brief if I did not feel sure that it is so?" "Then let the Earl be told, and let the girl have her rights." "Ah! there you have me. It may be that such would be the juster course; but then, Hardy, cannot you understand that though I am sure, I am not quite sure; that though the case is a bad one, it may not be quite bad enough to be thrown up?

Has not the husband of the offending dame a just power over both; against the seducer even a juster?
In the Black World, the Preacher and Teacher embodied once the ideals of this people the strife for another and a juster world, the vague dream of righteousness, the mystery of knowing; but to-day the danger is that these ideals, with their simple beauty and weird inspiration, will suddenly sink to a question of cash and a lust for gold.
