She had never been in the habit of resting; why should she begin now? Now, when her opportunity had come at last; now, when the iron was hot, and it was time to strike? No; she had work to do; and, come what might, she would do it. The doctors protested in vain; in vain her family lamented and entreated; in vain her friends pointed out to her the madness of such a course. Madness?
The magistrates have sat on all these cases already and committed them for trial; so all you've got to do is to find a True Bill, and you can't go wrong." "If we can't go wrong, there's no merit in going right," protested Mr. Clarkson. "Next case. "There's a lot of history behind that hat," said Mr. Clarkson, wishing to propitiate public opinion.
"They cannot have more than three hours' start of us," cried Holman. "Give me your arm, Verslun. Now let us move as fast as we can." "But this is puerile," I protested. "We'll be running our heads into the noose." "I don't care if we do. I want to get near Leith." "But we'll never get near by running after him in this fashion. If we could find some way to get in front of him and wait."

Miss La Creevy earnestly recommended a lady she knew, who would exactly suit Mr Linkinwater, and had a very comfortable property of her own; but this latter qualification had very little effect upon Tim, who manfully protested that fortune would be no object with him, but that true worth and cheerfulness of disposition were what a man should look for in a wife, and that if he had these, he could find money enough for the moderate wants of both.
"But go to sleep now. Shh." Her hands came up in complicated gestures. "Sleep and grow well." "None of that hypnotism again!" he protested. She went on making passes, but smiled on him kindly. "Don't be superstitious hypnotism is silly. Now go to sleep. For me, Dave Hanson. I want you well and true when you awake."

M. d'Orleans, thereupon, protested that he washed his hands of all the misfortunes that might happen in consequence of his advice being neglected. He declared that as he was no longer master over anything, it was not just that he should bear any part of the blame which would entail to those in command. He asked, therefore, for his post-chaise, and wished immediately to quit the army.
But he believed, still more firmly, that his own political authority, throughout his dominions, and his road to almost universal empire, lay over the bodies of those heretics.
