The cavalry, which was their strongest arm, was under the command of Edwy himself, although a sturdy warrior, who had fought in many a battle, rode on his right hand to supply his lack of experience.
'He's grappled it! he's thar'! he's thar'! says they, and when they pulled it in, thar' was that other one belt fast, and only him. "God knows! I calk'late he made sure o' the other first, and thar' wa'n't jest the breath's time left for him, blinded so sudden maybe, and fell death faint.

Urged to make the fence solid, if only as a protection against fire, his reply was: "However economically a new wall and fence be constructed, the outlay would be at the cost of the people. As for me, if I do my duty to the State, my life and my house will be safe. If I fail, the strongest fence will not avail."
Marsham shrugged his shoulders. "My position is not exactly agreeable! I don't agree with Ferrier, and I do agree with the malcontents. Moreover, when we come in, they will represent the strongest element in the party, with the future in their hands." Lady Lucy looked at him with sparkling eyes.

You will remember how hard the Germans had worked, building warships, with the hope that one day their navy might be the strongest in the world.

"Listen to me; you don't know what this passion for play is; the strongest and the coldest natures succumb don't play." He had raised his voice, as if he intended to be overheard by two guests who had just approached the sofa. They did indeed hear him.

I remonstrated with the captain of the privateer, on what I deemed a violation of hospitality.
That ever-existing spirit of confidence, baffled in one moment, flashes back into the hearts of all men when the faintest sign of hope appears, even though death has already begun to close his hand upon them. Nature grasps for the weakest straw and clings to life with an assurance that is sublime. The hope that comes just before the end is the strongest hope of all.
