Then Stuyvesant went to live in a little settlement he had built up and called Bouwerie Village, which was far out on the Bouwerie Road, and Nicasius De Sille settled down as a merchant, and little more was heard of him as a poet. It was a simple enough thing to rename the town and call it after the brother of an English king, but that made but little change in the customs of the people.
Je rename a tout cela; les inconveniens en sont innombrables; all my play at present is confined to a rubber at whist, and a little Pharo with Ailsford, and perhaps two or three more. Le grand evenement c'est la perte or la gain de 50 or 80 guineas. 4 o'clock. Come home to dinner. No letters as yet come from Ireland. Lord Egremont tells me that Digby is sent after La Motte Piquet.
"The sheet seemed to be of no value, so we destroyed it with a lot of other unimportant papers." "And I came across further evidence," said Jaffery, "of his intention to rename the novel." Doria's anger died away. She looked past us into the void. "I should like to have had Adrian's last words," she whispered. Then bringing herself back to earth, she begged Jaffery's pardon very touchingly.
I know women!" "In that case, let's rename the Mary," said Milton. "Everybody ready to turn in?" "I am, sir," replied Harden. "Jonas, you turn off the lights and put the cat down cellar. Good night, everybody!" Jonas chuckled and hobbled off to his blankets. It was not seven o'clock when the rude camp was silent and every soul in it in profound slumber.
It was all too beautiful to express in words, and much too beautiful to belong to a place called Murphy's Island, so the campers decided before the first night was over. "It reminds me of Scotland," remarked Mr. Evans, "the scenery is so wild and rugged." "Then let's rename it Ellen's Isle, after the one in 'The Lady of the Lake," said Gladys promptly.
It is only when the poet is not keenly alive to beauty that he begins to fret about making an artificial connection between truth and beauty, or, as he is apt to rename them, between wisdom and fancy.
The Kaibab, still frequently called the Buckskin Mountain, must have received this first name from its resemblance to a buckskin stretched out on the ground. The similarity is quite apparent in the relief map opposite page 41. As it was the home of the Kaibab band of Pai Utes, Powell decided to rename it after them.
If you're going to look at life here with his eyes, you'll have to rename things. Babies play Beggar my Neighbour for chocolates; why shouldn't we play bridge for a bob a hundred? The game is splendid for the brain; ten thousand times better than translating Greek choruses." "But it is gambling, Demon; you can't get away from that." "Pooh!
If the man who can do these things be not an artist, then must we have a new vocabulary and rename the professions. There is, in all this effectiveness of Emerson, no pose, no literary art; nothing that corresponds even remotely to the pretended modesty and ignorance with which Socrates lays pitfalls for our admiration in Plato's dialogues. It was the platform which determined Emerson's style.
The man I have in mind I will rename him Turner belongs to one of the old families of the village, and inherited from his father a cottage and an acre or so of ground probably mortgaged together with a horse and cart, a donkey, a cow or two, a few pigs, and a fair stock of the usual rustic tools and implements.
