"Why, by pimping," answered the other; "he is pimp in ordinary to my Lord , who keeps his family; or how the devil he lives else I don't know, for his place is not worth three hundred pounds a year, and he and his wife spend a thousand at least. But she keeps an assembly, which, I believe, if you was to call a bawdy-house, you would not misname it.
Science, divine Science, presents the grand and eternal verities of God and man as the divine Mind and that Mind's idea. Mortal man is the antipode of immortal man, and the two should not be confounded. Bishop Foster said, in a lecture in Boston, "No man living hath yet seen man." This material sinful personality, which we misname man, is what St.
As soon as we make all those symbols of the historic community, all the ideals of honour and devotion, righteousness and beauty, glory and faithfulness, mere matters of scientific calculation, they stare us in the face as sheer absurdities; and yet we might again misname that as truth.
Luck was against me. Night after night I lost. Then, just before the dinner, I woke from my frenzy to find all that I had was gone. I would have asked you for more, and you would have given it; but that strange, ridiculous something which we misname Southern honour, that honour which strains at a gnat and swallows a camel, withheld me, and I preferred to do worse. So I lied to you.
There is no want of names of streets and passages, but no Parisian would find them, or find them in the juxtaposition he has placed them. This is a matter hardly worth remarking; to his American readers an ideal topography is as good as any other; we ourselves should be very little disturbed by a novel which, laying its scene in New York, should misname half the streets of that city.

A tall man in a blue-gray bedgown was regarding him with deep disfavour. 'You ought to take shame for yourself, Conky! Orf'cer? Bloomin' orf'cer? I'll learn you to misname the likes of 'im. Hangel! Bloomin' Hangel! That's wot'e is!
I'll learn you to misname the likes of 'im. Hangel! Bloomin' Hangel! That's wot 'e is!" And the Hospital Orderly was so satisfied with the justice of the punishment that he did not even order Private Dormer back to his cot. Hurrah! hurrah! a soldier's life for me! Shout, boys, shout! for it makes you jolly and free. The Ramrod Corps.
Some one ordered sherry, of which I only remember that it was vile trash at eight shillings a bottle. And now the cry of "Here's the bus," brought us quickly outside again, where we found several new arrivals also waiting for it. I had hoped, from the name, or rather misname, of the conveyance, to gladden my eyes with the sight of something civilized. Alas, for my disappointment!
Tallisker prayed softly as the mystical gray shadow stole over the fair, tranquil face. It was soon all over. "She had outsoared the shadow of our night, And that unrest which men misname delight." The bridal robes were folded away, the bridegroom went back to his regiment, the heartsore father tried to take up his life again.
"Why, by pimping," answered the other; "he is pimp in ordinary to my Lord , who keeps his family; or how the devil he lives else I don't know, for his place is not worth three hundred pounds a year, and he and his wife spend a thousand at least.
