I had about decided to leave you out of my calculations in politics; you have the making of a good lawyer and if you opened an office to-morrow you would find clients without trouble. You are beginning to be known, very well known for a man of your years." Harwood demurred feebly, unheeded by Bassett, who continued steadily.
"When will you be back?" she asked wistfully. "Oh, hang it all! don't nag me. I shall come back when I like." He left the room as he spoke, slamming the door behind him. Mrs. Caldwell did not alter her attitude, but the tears welled up in her eyes, and ran down her haggard cheeks unheeded.
"Rothsay is right, Albany," said the King: "it were unlike a Christian monarch to give way in this point. I cannot consent to see men battle until they are all hewn down like cattle in the shambles. It would sicken me to look at it, and the warder would drop from my hand for mere lack of strength to hold it." "It would drop unheeded," said Albany.
It became a sort of quarry for nuts and screws and wheels, bars and spokes, chain-links and the like; a mine of ill-fitting "parts" to replace the defects of machines still current.

"Born for mastership, as I told you long ago: they strike the blow, while . I'm tired of theorists, exponents of the abstract right: your Hamlets, and your Sewards, that let occasion slip until circumstance or mobs drift them as they will." But Knowles's growls are unheeded, as usual. What is this To-Day to Margret?
There was not a threshold in the village but she had crossed at one time or another, in order to render some act of kindness or attention; and, as she passed along, the grateful inhabitants of every cottage came forth to bestow upon her their spontaneous and fervent blessings, whilst those who were rolling in wealth, and puffed up with pride, were suffered to pass unheeded by.

"It is God's truth," Wrayson answered. "I would stake my soul upon it that the girl I told you about was the original of that picture! When I look at your daughter Edith I can see the likeness."
