At any rate, to one acquainted with the workings of the "Court of Wards," there is nothing surprising in the fact that Ormond, the descendant of so many illustrious men of the great Butler family a family at all times so attached to the Catholic faith, and which afterward furnished so many victims to the transplantation schemes of Cromwell should himself become an inveterate enemy to the religion of his own parents, and to those who professed it; and that he should employ the great gifts which God had granted him, solely to scheme against this religion, and prevent his native countrymen from receiving even the scanty advantages which Charles at one time was willing to concede to them, through Lord Glanmorgan.
Ellsworthy, pardon me, but your husband is a man what can a man know about the intricate workings which go on within the breast of a perverse girl? Plucky! I call it wicked I call it wanting in all decorum, in all right sense.
Miss Emerson, the telephone girl, was engaged in animated repartee with that financial genius of the "Mercantile Agency," with whose workings the reader may have a slight familiarity, located on the floor below of the same Fifth Avenue building. "Yes, dearie, during business hours I'm as hard as nails, but when I shut up my desk I'm just as good a fellow as the next one.
I only know I have a horror of her, a sudden shrinking whenever her name is mentioned. Who was she, do you suppose?" "Shall I tell you?" asked Louise. "No no! Don't, I beg of you!" cried Eliza, starting up. "I I can't bear it! I don't want to know her." The protest was passionate and sincere, and Louise marvelled at the workings of this evidently unbalanced intellect.
Moreover, the supra-conscious, like the sub-conscious, is, as we have said, best apprehended when the conscious mind is not active. Visions, meditations, prayers, and even dreams have been undoubtedly occasions of spiritual revelations, and many instances may be adduced as illustrations of the workings of the Spirit apart from the action of reason or mind.
You cannot get at either the reference or the adaptation without using the notion of the workings. Surely for understanding what the word 'true' means as applied to a statement, the mention of such workings is indispensable.
So, here, the spiritual shock, which is the central spring of the romance, is allowed to transmit itself in every direction, and he lays bare its workings. It is saddest in Donatello in the moment when he heard the cry of the falling wretch, when he turned cold at Miriam's touch, when he lost his kinship with the wild creatures he loved; and it is fixed in his unquiet, evasive eyes.
Reluctant to allow Burnside quietly, a Cæsar's opportunity to "cover his baldness with laurels," his whimsical movements, now galloping furiously and purposeless from front to rear, and from rear to front of his command, cursing the officers, and that for fancied neglect of duty, poorly concealed the workings of his mind.
Nothing but an incessant watering of the workings in such cases will render the dust innocuous. The dust is extremely fine, and is easily carried into every nook and crevice, and when, as at Bridgend in 1892, it explodes, it is driven up and out of the shaft, enveloping everything temporarily in dust and darkness.
At the end of one of the drives McIntosh called Vandeloup, and on going towards him the young man found him seated on a truck with the plan of the mine before him, as he wanted to show him all the ramifications of the workings.
