Then, having washed, I ate a splendid dinner, though in this respect Hans, who was seated on the ground nearby, far outpassed my finest efforts. "Baas," he said, "things have gone very well with us when they might have gone very ill.
Stars and sun, a few bright grains, went spinning round for terror, and holding each other in embrace, there in a darkness that outpassed them all, and left them tiny and daunted. So much, and himself, infinitesimal, at the core a nothingness, and yet not nothing. "Mother!" he whispered "mother!" She was the only thing that held him up, himself, amid all this.
Joseph gently removed her hand. "It is thou who blasphemest, mother," he cried. "Rejoice, rejoice, this day the dear Lord Christ was born He who was to die for the sins of the world." Rachel burst into fresh tears. "Our boy is mad our boy is mad. What have they done to him?" All her anticipations of horror were outpassed by this.
They suggested that there may be many things and forces above us and around us, invisible as an electric current, intangible as light, yet existent and capable of manifestation under certain rare and favourable conditions.

Opposite Pigott's music warerooms Mr Denis J Maginni, professor of dancing &c, gaily apparelled, gravely walked, outpassed by a viceroy and unobserved.
As my head outpassed the edge of the top so that she came into view, I could see she was looking at me with storm-bright eyes. And as I swung around the rigging lightly and joined her, I saw approval in her eyes that was quickly routed by petulance. "Oh, you've done this sort of thing before," she reproached, calling loudly, so that I might hear, her lips close to my ear.
