Moreover, in this case Aunt Jane utterly disbelieved in Malbone because she had reason to disbelieve in his father, and the better she knew the son the more she disliked the father retrospectively. Philip was apt to be very heedless of such aversions, indeed, he had few to heed, but it was apparent that Aunt Jane was the only person with whom he was not quite at ease.
One case that was mentioned is now of particular importance as demonstrating that an appropriate stimulus may dispel the vacuity of complete stupor by raising mental functions to a point where delusions are entertained. This patient retrospectively recalled only certain periods of her deepest stupor, occasions when she was visited by her mother.
Retrospectively the patient stated that she heard children on the street call “Katie.” She thought they meant her child, heard that it was to be taken away from her, and a similar idea again came out later in her psychosis, namely, that somebody was going to harm her children. At the Observation Pavilion she appeared stupid, rather immobile, her attention difficult to attract.
Retrospectively she stated, “I was so disgusted I went to bed I just gave up hope.” Shortly before admission she said she was lost and damned, and to the nurse in the Observation Pavilion she pleaded, “Don’t let me murder myself and the baby.”
Remembering her chill once on hearing Patrick in a green lane where they botanised among spring flowers call himself her Irish cousin, as if he had advanced a step and betrayed the hoof, she called him her Irish cousin now in good earnest. Her nation was retrospectively enthusiastic.
Lovers in like manner live on their capital from failure of income: they, too, for the sake of stifling apprehension and piping to the present hour, are lavish of their stock, so as rapidly to attenuate it: they have their fits of intoxication in view of coming famine: they force memory into play, love retrospectively, enter the old house of the past and ravage the larder, and would gladly, even resolutely, continue in illusion if it were possible for the broadest honey-store of reminiscences to hold out for a length of time against a mortal appetite: which in good sooth stands on the alternative of a consumption of the hive or of the creature it is for nourishing.
There is no particular or partial inconvenience, which could outweigh the general benefits of a provision that no law, public or private, should operate retrospectively upon past acts; that the judgment of the tribunals upon every case should be according to the law as it was at the time of the transaction, which the parties were bound to know, and in accordance with which they are to be presumed to have acted.
I'll be blamed if I can figure on where he passed the night." "Where is he now?" "Oh, we jugged him. I didn't know what else to do with him. That's what I want you to tell me. Of course we can't keep him. No charge could be made, you know." "I'll come down and get him." The official grinned retrospectively. "Must say he had a fine career while he was out. Then he went to Watermelon Alley. Whoo!
"You did like my dear Belots," Karen said, as she and Gregory drove away. She had, since her marriage, grown in perception; Gregory would have found it difficult, now, to hide ironies and antipathies from her. Even retrospectively she saw things which at the time she had not seen, saw, for instance, that the idea of the Belots had not been alluring to him.
"And grandpapa was perfectly indifferent to her: it must have been dreary work. Oh, what a pity that Lady Latimer did not care for him!" "She did care for him very much." "But if she cared for Umpleby more?" Miss Charlotte sighed retrospectively and said, "Olympia was ambitious: she is the same still I see no change.
