The conception, although conveyed by the lips of the rich man after he had gone to his own place, that a miracle of power would, if it were exhibited, bring alienated hearts submissively back to God, springs native here in time.

KOSINSKY. I was arrested, accused, criminally prosecuted, degraded, and mark this transported beyond the frontier, as a special favor. My estates were confiscated to the minister, and Amelia remained in the clutches of the tiger, where she weeps and mourns away her life, while my vengeance must keep a fast, and crouch submissively to the yoke of despotism.

Another, perhaps some well-armed Levantine trader or tall Indiaman whose crew had little mind to strike their colours submissively at the behest of a midget press-smack, would pipe to quarters and put up a stiff fight for liberty and the dear delights of London town a fight from which the tender, supposing her to have accepted the gage of battle, rarely came off victor.

Anna looked about her in a frightened way, got up submissively, and laid her hand on her husband's arm.
