And to Helena the question came as though it had been an inspiration given him for after that he would ask no more, seek no more to understand, for he was too big and strong and fine for that; and even if it was hopeless now this love that she had known for Madison, even if it could never be again, still that love was hers, and she could answer truthfully. "Yes," she said beneath her breath.
"There are different crowns," says Goethe, "there are some which may be readily gathered during a walk." Such crowns charm for the moment through their balmy freshness, but who would think of comparing them with those so laboriously gained by Chopin by constant and exemplary effort, by an earnest love of art, and by his own mournful experience of the emotions which he has so truthfully depicted?
"By all means," said Mr. Furlong. Mr. Fyshe poured out a wineglassful of soda and handed it to the rector to drink. "Now tell me very truthfully," he said, "is there too much carbon in it?" "By no means," said Mr. Furlong. "And quite frankly not too much hydrogen?" "Oh, decidedly not." "And you would not say that the percentage of sodium bicarbonate was too great for the ordinary taste?"
"Which do you wish to see slain?" demanded the black Gervais. I answered quite truthfully: "Monsieur, I shall be pleased either way." I know not how he relished the answer, for Yeux-gris cried out at once: "Bravo, Félix, you are a paragon! I have not wit enough to know whether you are as simple as sunshine or as deep as a well, but I love you."

"Why do you never come to church in the morning?" asks Miss Le Baron, wheeling around on her piano-stool suddenly. "You are only there at night, with your mother." "I go only on her account," replies David, truthfully.
As to the horse neither the immortal James or any of his school could truthfully picture this animal as either white or high-spirited.
Her eyes questioned him mutely. "Why, ma'am, who but his own father, to be sure ... the old Governor." While they had been duly sensible of the luster reflected upon them by the celebration in honor of their distinguished uncle, Professor Gridley's two nephews could scarcely have said truthfully that they enjoyed the occasion.
And Patrick offered him a choice i.e. fifteen years in the chief kingship of his country, if he would live piously and truthfully, or to go to heaven, if he preferred it. But the king said: "Though the sovereignty of the entire globe were given to me, and though I might live for many years, I would count it all as nothing in comparison with the good shown to me.
Questioned in verity, for the practised hand could feel rigid muscles and undeveloped glands that answered more truthfully than words. Whatever conclusions Milton arrived at, he divulged to no one but Mrs. Strang. What he had to say roused the desolate woman as nothing else could have done. To the rest of the world little or nothing was explained.
But the other, seeing the motion and in the sobering recognition of danger, spoke hastily: 'Keep your hair on! You know so jolly much more than I do. I tell you that she told me this and a lot more this morning when she asked me to marry her. Harold's heart grew cold as ice. There is something in the sound of a voice speaking truthfully which a true man can recognise.
