By mentioning assigns the first grantor did not offer a covenant to any person who would thereafter purchase the land. If that had been the notion, there would have been a contract directly binding the first grantor to the assign, as soon as the land was sold, and thus there would have been two warranties arising from the same clause, one to the first grantee, a second to the assign.
Or to put it into plain words, the teaching of my text is no dreamy teaching, such as an eastern mystic might proclaim, of absorption into an impersonal Divine. There is no notion here of any partaking of these great though secondary attributes of the Divine mind which to many men are the most Godlike parts of His nature.
"You know perfectly well what I mean it is not likely that any one would look at me when Barbara was by you can have no notion," continue I, speaking very fast to avoid contradiction, "how well she looks when she is dancing never gets hot, or flushed, or mottled, as so many people do." "And you? how do you look?" "I grow purple," I answer, laughing "a rich imperial purple, all over.
Willie Harvey, who was seconding me, comes tearing in after me, and finds me getting into my clothes. 'What's doing, Kid? he asks. 'I'm going fishin', Willie, I says. 'It's a lovely day. 'You've lost the fight, he says. 'Fight? says I. 'What fight? See what I mean? I hadn't a notion of what had happened. It was half an hour and more before I could remember a thing."
Whether he lived, or whether he had died, where he lay buried, if buried he were, or where he rioted, if still in the land of the living, they had no notion. And why should they care?

He rushed to the stable, saddled Ruber, and galloped wildly away. At the end of the street he remembered that he had not a single idea to guide him. She was lying dead somewhere, but whether to turn east or west or north or south to find her, he had not the slightest notion. His condition was horrible.
This downright robbery was palliated by some members of the House in that day, under the notion of its being a sort of exchange, or quid pro quo in return for the relief obtained by the statute of Queen Anne the first which recognized literary property.
"And I learned one thing at the courting of her which is the gist of my word of wisdom to you, Colin. Keep it in mind till you need it. It's this: There's one thing a woman will put up with blandly in every man but the one man she has a notion of, and that's the absence of conceit about himself or her."
"My dear Susie, your notion of economy would be the same as mine, if you had had seven children." "But I haven't," said Susie, sadly. She was humbled by the rebuff she had just received. "I only wish I had." Aggie looked up from her work with a remorseful tenderness in her tired eyes. She was sorry for poor Susie, who had lost her only one.
He was determined to go to Winchester; but the opinions of all the regular officers who were with him, were against it. The opinions of all the men in whose judgment I had any confidence, were against it. They seemed to have the notion that General Patterson had got his Irish blood up by the fight we had had at Falling Waters, and was bound to go ahead.
