Man is provided with seven distinct organs of sense, which receive and interpret these radiations. The lowest rate of vibration is received and interpreted by the sense of gender and the next stage by the sense of touch. Above that we have the senses of taste, hearing, sight, smell and clairvoyance.
In the lowest organism all parts are competent to perform all functions, and one and the same portion of protoplasm may successfully take on the function of feeding, moving, or reproducing apparatus.
"They both hid their wrath as much as possible," says the chronicler; "but at heart they had ever this outrage." We shall see, before long, what were the consequences. No history can offer so striking an example of the importance of well-assorted unions amongst the highest as well as the lowest, and of the prolonged woes which may be brought upon a nation by the domestic evils of royalty.
He sat in the chair that was placed for him, and the Drummer waited on him, recommending Pauline's skill again, much as he might have presented a petition. The prisoner ate little, but he praised Pauline, and said outright that he had tasted nothing so palatable as her supper these five years. This cheered Montier a little, but still his spirits were almost at the lowest point of depression.
But we are often too hard upon our fellows; for many of those in the higher ranks of life no, no, I mean of society whose insolence wakens ours, as growl wakes growl in the forest, are not yet so far removed from the savage I mean in their personal history as some in the lowest ranks.
The Goths were "improvable barbarians;" but the Huns whom Attila led to ravage the fair peninsula were mere Tartar savages of the lowest stamp. All the other invaders of Italy were of Teutonic origin, but the Huns were Mongols of such perfect hideousness that Jornandes regarded them as the offspring of witches and demons.
It's too bad a case for apologies, but if it's any consolation to you I feel the lowest dog in Europe at this moment. He was sitting up rubbing his bruised shoulders. 'What do you mean? he asked hoarsely. 'I mean that you and I are allies. My name's not Brand. I'm a soldier a general, if you want to know. I went to Biggleswick under orders, and I came chasing up here on the same job.
I had hardly got over this fence for there was no gate or entrance before my eyes were greeted with this sight: On the lowest step in front of the house sat Raissa, her elbows on her knees and holding her chin in her folded hands: she was looking straight out into vacancy.
To these merely rascal elements, male and female, we must add, I fear, those whom mere penury, from sickness, failure, want of employment drove into dwellings of the lowest order. Such people, though not criminal themselves, are but too likely to become the parents of criminals. I am not blaming them, poor souls; God forbid! I am merely stating a fact.
Except three or four children of the school who ran like young cats after the lost pelotas, there were only the girls, seated in a group on the lowest one of these deserted steps, the old, reddish stones of which bore at this moment their herbs and their flowers of April. Calico gowns, clear white or pink waists, they were all the gaiety of this solemnly sad place.
