"If you had only the brave old Norse blood in you, you would take to the frost and ice like second nature." "No, I am not English pur sang," answered Leam gravely. "I am more than half Spanish," a little proudly. "Hang it all, you can't make it more than half!" said her father testily.

Le comme il faut tout pur, but rather in a different style." He soon learned from her that her name was Sofya Matveyevna Ulitin and she lived at K , that she had a sister there, a widow; that she was a widow too, and that her husband, who was a sub-lieutenant risen from the ranks, had been killed at Sevastopol. "But you are still so young, vous n'avez pas trente ans."

In the first month, that is, the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of king Ahasuerus, they cast Pur, that is, the lot, before Haman from day to day, and from month to month, to the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar.

Quelques petits filons ou renules de schiste pur. De la pierre calcaire d'un grain plus grossier. D'autres couches d'un grain plus fin.

II va, de jour vetu, A l'avenir divin et pur, a la vertu, A la science qu'on voit luire, A la mort des fleaux, a l'oubli genereux, A l'abondance, au caime, au rire, a l'homme heureux, Il va, ce glorieux navire. Oh! ce navire fait le voyage sacre!

What was the good of wasting efforts on some sort of English constitution, perhaps with a House of Lords and other such abominations?
