We laud and honour the courage and high achievements of the King of England; but we feel aggrieved that he should on all occasions seize and maintain a precedence and superiority over us, which it becomes not independent princes to submit to.
On hearing this, the king ordered the guards to seize her also; and her account of the ring differing from Bertram's, the king's suspicions were confirmed: and he said, if they did not confess how they came by this ring of Helena's, they should be both put to death.
Seize him," continued Manfred, "and 'bind him the first news the Princess hears of her champion shall be, that he has lost his head for her sake." "The injustice of which thou art guilty towards me," said Theodore, "convinces me that I have done a good deed in delivering the Princess from thy tyranny. May she be happy, whatever becomes of me!"
Now a silence fell upon the place, for none liked this talk of the King's warrant, and in the midst of it Hugh asked: "Do you yield, Sir Edmund Acour, or must we and the burgesses of Dunwich who gather without seize you and your people?" Acour turned and began to talk rapidly with the priest Nicholas, while the congregation stared at each other.
It was whispered that the bold soldier and intrepid ruler searched dark corners with his eyes and started at sudden sounds, that he would exchange his sleeping chamber for some strange and often humble resting place at night, and that sometimes in the darkness he would start from sleep, seize his sword and cry aloud, as though maddened by the terror of his dreams.
It is only under stress of severe weather that they band together in packs. They prefer to creep on their prey and seize it by a sudden pounce, but, unlike the cougar, they also run it down in fair chase. Their slouching, tireless gallop enables them often to overtake deer, antelope, or other quarry; though under favorable circumstances, especially if near a lake, the latter frequently escape.
Walter, when alone, turned his steps toward Altorf, where unfortunately, and unknown to himself, he came into the presence of Gessler, to whom he uttered somewhat hard things about the state of the country, being led to commit himself by the artful questions of the tyrant, who immediately ordered the lad into confinement, with strict injunctions to the guards to seize whomsoever should claim him.
"At any rate," said a handsome man with a bad feminine face, "he has not proved where our accusations were false." The old woman, hearing that, wrenched herself through the crowd, and facing Moessard said: "What he did not say I will. I am his mother, and it is my duty to speak." She stopped to seize Le Merquier by the sleeve, who was escaping: "Wicked man, you must listen, first of all.
Both by natural endowment and by special training you are fitted for the work. Seize, then, the opportunities and make the most of them, because the world and they that dwell therein belong to him who knows how to use them. From one point of view this is perfectly legitimate, and I urge it. It is not only one's right but one's duty to make the most of himself to advance his own interests.
I do hope! Let me know where you fix yourself. I will seize a holiday, I need one; I will arrange as to my patients; I will come to the same place; she need not know of it, but I must be by to watch, to hear your news of her. Heaven bless you for what you have said! I hope! I do hope!" Some days after, I received a few lines from Mrs. Ashleigh. Her arrangements for departure were made.
