Chilled by a covert fear, as though he felt a faint breath, as of a distant wind from a land of ruins, pass over his face, bringing with it the mortal cold of a sepulchre, he bowed respectfully whilst the Cardinal, rising to his full height, continued in his obstinate voice, resonant with proud courage: "And if Catholicism, as its enemies pretend, be really stricken unto death, it must die standing and in all its glorious integrality.
Who else was there? The good and the bad in the woman struck separate blows upon the girl's resonant nature. She perceived the good, and took it into her reflections. The bad she divined: it approached like some threat of inflammation.
Beneath the walls of a town we pass soon after noon are ranged fifteen other junks; as the fleet passes, these vessels simultaneously discharge all their guns, while at the same instant there burst upon the startled air detonations from hundreds of bombs, big heaps of firecrackers, and the din of many resonant gongs.
"You couldn't do anything else but fight," retorted Greg sharply. "That's the only reason why I fought," Prescott rejoined. Half or three quarters of an hour later two resonant honks sounded from the red Smattach automobile up at the roadside.

Miss Gibson's voice, resonant, passionate, devout, lingered on the last syllables of the poem. "The imperial idea," I said, "after all, Gorman, it has its greatness." Then Tim spoke, shyly, eagerly. "I wonder," he said, "if they would let us go on board one of the submarines. I should like to see Oh, there are a lot of things I should like to see in any of those ships.
