"Now do you know whether it is remorse I feel, when I think how I put this purer self away, how I went out triumphant in my inhuman, greedy brain, how I resolved to know, to be, to trample under foot all weak love or homely pleasures? I have been punished. Let those years go. I think, sometimes, I came near to the nature of the damned who dare not love: I would not.
And so, you made merry with my scorn of my 'Prometheus. Believe me believe me absolutely I did not strike that others might spare, but from an earnest remorse. When you know me better, you will know, I hope, that I am true, whether right or wrong, and you know already that I am right in this thing, the only merit of the translation being its closeness. Can I be of any use to you, dear Mr.
Her arms were all he desired for consolation, and if they waked in him the old wild remorse, he stifled it ere it could take full possession. Finally, when the first bitterness had passed, they sat and talked together, and he found relief in telling her of the life he had lived in close companionship with the old man. "We quarrelled a dozen times," he said.
At last he had realized her actual presence, the safety of her body and soul; and all that had made him strange and old and grim and sad vanished in a beautiful transfiguration. "You know Larry did it!" implored Allie. "Tell them so." "Yes, I know," he replied. "But I did worse. She saw him shaken by an agony of remorse; and that agony was communicated to her. "Neale! she loved you?"

Can he come between a couple and the altar, and sunder those that God and the priest make one? She is my daughter, and I am as proud of her as I am of you, Kate, almost; and as for you, keep out of my way awhile, for you are like the black dog in my eyes." Cornelis and Sybrandt took the hint and slunk out, aching with remorse, and impenitence, and hate.
They must e'en sit and palpitate while the Blade flashes. The accomplished Blade goes through life looking unspeakable wickedness at everything feminine he meets, old and young, rich and poor, one with another. He reeks with intrigue. Every Blade has his secrets and mysteries in this matter remorse even for crimes. You do not know all that his handsome face may hide. Even he does not know.
Tell the angel who will watch over your future destiny, Morrel, to pray sometimes for a man, who like Satan thought himself for an instant equal to God, but who now acknowledges with Christian humility that God alone possesses supreme power and infinite wisdom. Perhaps those prayers may soften the remorse he feels in his heart. As for you, Morrel, this is the secret of my conduct towards you.
Pan gained the pasture fence under the dark trees, and he grasped it tightly as if his hold on life had been shaken. The shock of incredulous amaze passed away, leaving him in the grip of joy and gratitude and remorse. How vastly different was this vigil under the stars! It was Pan who routed out the campers next morning when the first rose of dawn flushed the clear-cut horizon line.
Bright lights will be burnt out; sin will be graven on the memory; remorse will be bitter; evil habits which cannot be gratified will torment; a wearied soul, a darkened understanding, a rebellious heart, will make the end awfully, infinitely, always worse than the beginning.
