Yet who knows how many poor despicable souls of our sex the worst of them has had to whine after him! You have brought an inconvenience upon yourself, as you observe, by your refusal of Miss Partington for your bedfellow. Pity you had not admitted her! watchful as you are, what could have happened? If violence were intended, he would not stay for the night.

I fear that, while we speak, the count may get upon his track." "He had better not come here!" cried the servant, menacingly, and putting his hand where the knife was not. "Beware of your own anger, Giacomo. One act of violence, and you would be transported from England, and your mast'r would lose a friend." Jackeymo seemed struck by this caution.

However, I suppose that his own violence and passion have consumed this young man, as he persistently labored at his own destruction. If this, how ever, is not the case, and his extraordinary strength of constitution has preserved him, the youth must have become a strong man, and we need such men for our army." The governor informed Mohammed and his son of what the pacha had written.

But Jane Eyre's ignorances and simplicities, the improbabilities of her men, the violence of the plot, the weird romance about her own life, are all made acceptable to us by being shown to us only through the secret visions of a passionate and romantic girl.

You can't commit a murder in a certain kind of psi field when probability goes hog-wild.

We have, however, no interest in disputing the right of the Convention to use violence and lavish abuse amongst themselves; for, perhaps, these scenes form the only part of their journals which does not record or applaud some real mischief.

If anything, the fury of the storm seemed to increase as time passed, swelling to such terrible violence that one imagined nothing could withstand its force, its mad blasts, its deadliness. "Those mess tents and horse tents," Lee said to Carrigan, anxiously. "They're safer under their lee of hay than is this little paper box we're sitting in," the contractor replied.

But the point to notice is that you cannot alter things by altering names. The united force of civilisation brought to bear upon any nation, however guilty, would be an act of war, however much you called it international police. Civilisation's self-defence would be war. Every form of self-defence by violence, whether it disguises aggression or not, is war.
