Ohne Hast, ohne Rast, might have been his motto. He had much belief in the future of English land, and was not, I think, at all exempt from the great English landlord's foible of adding field to field. In the long period of agricultural depression it was easy for a rich man to do so.

"Ohne Armee kein Deutschland." She can permit no silly, no stupid, no excited majority to imperil her safety as a nation.

You and I might sing lieder ohne worte, Miss Wynton.

Le Banquet Infernal, the First Scherzo, op. 20 what a misnomer! Ballade ohne Worte, the G minor Ballade there is a polyglot mess for you!
