Before taking leave of her forever, readers, as she is a paragon in her kind, would perhaps take a glance or two at her marauding qualities, by a good opportunity that offers.

He would, he told himself, have been forced eventually to yield when that paragon of inflexibility, Bob, dictated terms to him at the head of the locomotive works. At all events, victory had never been bought more cheaply. Humiliation, in Mr.
"I told you at the time that no gentleman would have done it." "Oh, you mean Ashforth, I suppose? It's always Ashforth." "Well, he wouldn't."

"I fill this cup to one made up Of loveliness alone, A woman of her gentle sex The seeming paragon" continuing to the end with eloquence and spirit. "Now, that is poetry, Miss Harz! the real afflatus is there; the bead on the wine; the dew on the rose; the bloom on the grape! Nothing wanting that constitutes the indefinable divine thing called genius!
"Well, Charles," said Sir John, as soon as he saw me alone, "now tell us about this Lucilla, this paragon, this nonpareil of Dr. Barlow's. Tell me what is she? or rather what is she not?"
She's a great favorite in the village, and everybody says she is as beautiful as she is good, and vice versa." "Well, I'd like to see this paragon of yours. I believe I'll go." "Well, let us get ready." "When do you start?" "To-morrow." "All right. I'll be on hand." And with these words the two friends parted to meet again the next day at the railroad station.
