No one would recognize him there, for he was a boy when he had been taken to the Mission, and he had never been chosen to accompany the Padre on his rare visitations to the Elcuanams, as it had been thought wise not to allow him to return to the old surroundings. What had he better do? Well, he would go on: probably the well-remembered name of Kla-quitch would make it all right.

He clung to his unfortunate neglected wife. 'She became his dear wife, his godly wife, his honest wife, his duck, his dear and all. He thought he was dying, and hell and all its horrors rose up before him.
As soon as the fearful visitations with which the century had closed were passed over, he resumed his warlike forays, and found Donald of Aileach nothing loath to try again the issue of arms. Each prince, however, seems to have been more anxious to coerce or interest the secondary chiefs in his own behalf than to meet his rival in the old-style pitched battle.
At once Hugh offered her his arm, while Adrien took the other, and together they led her slowly into the house. Meanwhile the others tumbled into Rupert's car and motored down to the gate, and there waited the approach of what seemed to be a procession of some sort or other. At the gate Dr. Templeton, returning from his pastor visitations, found them standing. "Come here, Papa!" cried Patricia.

For which is more galling to human pride, to be told, Sin is certainly a clever, and politic, and successful trade, as far as this world is concerned. It is only in the next world, or in the case of rare and peculiar visitations and judgments in this world, that it will harm you? Or to be told, Sin is no more clever, politic, or successful here, than hereafter.
It is easy to see what important historical documents visitation reports are, especially in a diocese like Lincoln, which possesses an almost unbroken series of registers, ranging over the three centuries before the Dissolution, so that one can trace the whole history of some of the nunneries by the successive visitations.

Francis, having received the resignation of his vicar general, on his return from his visitations, deferred the choice of his successor till the assembly of the chapter which was held on Whitsunday.
There's no greater evidence of it than to see him, in these awful visitations, refusing still to discriminate between the innocent and the guilty!

The Doctor unfolded the paper and began to read: "'God, in his mysterious providence' O sir!"
