So then the law indeed is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good. Did then that which is good become fatal to me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin by that which was good in itself, was the cause of death to me; that sin through the commandment might become transcendantly sinful. For we know that the law is spiritual; but I am fleshly, sold under sin.

These portraits were the main attraction of the elegant crowd, which included many of the sitters; as for the latter, they failed to hide under an unconvincing mask of indifference their curiosity as to their own effectiveness in a frame. The portraits for the most part had every quality save that of sincerity. They were transcendantly adroit and they reeked of talent.

It was summer, and the tropical sun was reigning in his full glory. But his mind was enthusiastic and poetical, and the nights, so transcendantly beautiful in those regions, were his delight.

Cornelius Dalton persisted notwithstanding this great act of contemptuosity and discouragement to his creditable and industrious endeavors, to expend, upon the aforesaid farm, in solid and valuable improvements, a sum of seven hundred pounds and upwards, in building, draining, enclosing, and manuring all of which improvements transcendantly elevated the value of the farm in question, as the whole rational population of the country could depose to me ipso teste quoque.

Admiral Benbow's cheese was out of the season, but his home-made bread was good, and his beer was perfect. Deluded by some earlier spring day which had been warm and sunny, the Admiral had cleared the firing out of his parlour stove, and had put some flower-pots in which was amiable and hopeful in the Admiral, but not judicious: the room being, at that present visiting, transcendantly cold.

Recent events probably quickened this intention, both as to feeling and time, for Mark was naturally much mortified at the turn things had taken. There was an obvious falling-off in the affairs of the colony from the time it became transcendantly free.

It was with a certain nervousness that I mentioned Sullivan's name to the gentleman at the receipt of tickets a sort of transcendantly fine version of Keith Prowse's clerk but Sullivan had not exaggerated his own importance. They did look after me.
