And some did remember that, in verity, all was due to the unwisdom of those Youths, who had heeded not the Law and their life-teachings. Yet had they paid to the uttermost, and passed outwards; and the account of their Deeds was closed.
Hennibul, who was one of the men sitting round, doubled his copy of Verity up and beat the air with it. "I knew I'd heard the name," he exclaimed. "Why, I've met him down at Enton. Nice-looking young fellow." Arranmore nodded. "Yes. That was Brooks." Mr. Hennibul's face beamed. "Great Scott, what a haul!" he exclaimed. "Why, you've got old Lavilette on toast you've got him for suing damages too.
"The verity of the Ueberhells, that is what each one thought to be true, was a thing of naught, and, if you consider it closely, a dangerous thing. Only the mind which is capable of comprehending the laws of Nature can escape the danger of mistaking the fortuitous, and ever changing reality, for the eternal and unchangeable truth. Therefore I do not regret what I have done.
Some said she went to Riiden, a little uninhabited island between Riigen and Usdom, where the wild geese and other birds flock in the moulting season and drop their feathers. Thence, they said, she gathered the eggs, and killed the birds with clubs. At least this was the story of the Usdom fishermen, but whether it were Sidonia or some other outcast woman, I cannot in strict verity declare.
It seems just as if I could not let you go till I have seen once more your face in the flesh, for great uncertainties hang over my future.

It is not poetry, but solemn verity between us that we shall meet again.
It was a step between the world and nothingness, and served to cheat the imagination with ideas of a fictitious resting-place. Or if he says that substance can be created, it is like saying that a false idea can become a true idea as absurd a thing as it is possible to conceive; and therefore the existence of substance, as well as the essence of it, must be acknowledged as an eternal verity.
It would indeed be a mercy to kill the prisoners, if we could not save their lives; but of a verity we were come to hard lines when it was to be hoped our missiles would slay those who had been our comrades. I believed all the garrison were better content, now that Colonel Gansevoort was finding work for every man.
"Vana sine viribus ira," quoted the Cardinal, and of a verity it seemed that not a man was likely to stir in Germany in his behalf, now that so deep a gloom had descended upon his cause.
"Let us walk on towards The Hard. Pray let us walk on. Has no rumour ever reached you, Miss Verity, regarding this young man?" The wildest ideas flitted through Miss Felicia's brain. The figure in shiny oilskins yet preposterous, surely? After all, an affair of the heart misplaced affection Damaris? Did this account for the apparent indifference? How intensely interesting; yet how unwise.
Insall, in some odd manner, and through the medium of that frivolous lady, had managed to reenforce certain doubts that had been stirring in Janet doubts of Rolfe, of the verity of the doctrine which with such abandon she had embraced. It was Insall who, though remaining silent, just by being there seemed to have suggested her manner of dealing with Mrs. Brocklehurst.
