"The day before he died," writes Evelyn, "he call'd to me and in a more serious manner than usual, told me that for all I loved him so dearly I should give my house, land, and all my fine things, to his Brother Jack, he should have none of them; and next morning when he found himself ill, and that I persuaded him to keepe his hands in bed, he demanded whether he might pray to God with his hands un-joyn'd; and a little after, whilst in great agonie, whether he should not offend God by using His holy name so often calling for ease.
And slowly articulating each syllable, he repeated the following sentences: "LE 27th JUIN, 1862, le trois-mats Britannia, de Glasgow, a sombre apres une longue AGONIE dans les mers AUSTRALES sur les cotes de la Nouvelle ZELANDE in English Zealand.
The majorities were, on their question, 683 to 66; on the second, 423 to 281; on the third, 387 to 334; so that on this last, the fatal question, it would have been easy for the Girondins to have turned the scale. Goncourt, p. 370, quoting "Fragments de Turgy." "S'en défaire." Louis XVII., sa Vie, son Agonie, sa Mort, par M. de Beauchesne, quoting Senart.
First, forget as much as possible preceding interpretations, and divest your mind of all preconceived notions.

He that had then vngartered mee, might haue pluckt out my heart at my hams. A trembling earthquake or shaking feauer assailed either of vs, and I thinke vnfainedly, if he seeing our faint heart agonie, had not soone cheered and refreshed vs, the dogs had gone together by the eares vnder the table for our feare-dropped lims.
"Read it any way you please except that." "How?" "Cosmogonie, theogonie, agonie." "AGONIE," said the Major. "I don't care which," returned Paganel.

Tantot ils font lutter, dans des combats affreux, L'homme contre la brute et les hommes entre eux, Aux longs ruisseaux de sang qui coulent de la veine, Aux palpitations des membres sur l'arene, Se levant a demi de leurs lits de repos Des frissons de plaisir fremissent sur leurs peaux.

And Mélanie she's in agonie and say no-no-no! but if mademoiselle will tell it, yes!
