How it all weighs on my mind! "And so you are going to be a doctor?" he said once, I don't know at which meeting. How can I tell there were so many! "I am a doctor," I corrected him. "Well, I am a doctor too," he said. "And perhaps that is the reason I loathe the thought of any woman meddling in that profession." "I don't particularly like it myself," I told him.

How I would love to have Alathea for my wife and have children It can't be possible that I have written that! I loathe children in the abstract they bore me to death Even Solonge de Clerté's two entertaining angels but to have a son with Alathea's eyes God! how the thought makes me feel!

The sea without you is not the sea, any more than heaven would be heaven were you not there. "I cannot describe to you, my dear lady, how detestable the life on board is to me. I loathe the people with their inane chatter, and the idiotic children, and the highly-correct and gentlemanly captain, all equally.

Hester Meryon, who had escaped from a man who had called himself, for a few days at least, her husband; a man whom in scarcely more than a week she had come to loathe and fear; whose nature and character had revealed to her infamies of which she had never dreamed; who had claimed to be her master, and use her as he pleased, and from whom she had escaped by night, after a scene of which she still bore the marks.

This kind of writing is my pet aversion, I hate the slang, I hate the personalities, I loathe the aimless, reckless, loose dispersion, Of every rhyme that in the singer's wallet is, I hate it as you hated the Excursion, But, while no man a hero to his valet is, The hero's still the model; I indite The kind of rhymes that Byron oft would write.

"Great Source of all knowledge!" ejaculated Glendower, scarce audibly, and to himself. "Supreme and unfathomable God! dost Thou most loathe or pity Thine abased creatures, walking in their dim reason upon this little earth, and sanctioning fraud, treachery, crime, upon a principle borrowed from Thy laws?

You know, don't you, that I hate money just as badly as you?" "You have made me think so, Eveleth," I answered. "I hate it and loathe it. I think it's the source of all the sin and misery in the world; but you can't get rid of it at a blow. For if you gave it away you might do more harm than good with it."
