Mivart's hypothesis, must have used words studiously calculated to deceive his creatures and worshippers, is 'no religion worthy of the name. 'Incredibile est, Deum illis verbis ad populum fuisse locutum quibis deciperetur, is a verdict in which for once Jesuit casuistry concurs with the healthy moral sense of all mankind." Mr. Lay Sermons, etc. p. 331. Büchner. Dr.
However clever you young gentlemen may be, old Paracelsus spoke the holy truth: in herbis verbis et lapidibus.... I've retired from practice, you know, of course, but two or three times a week it will happen that I'm brought back to my old work. They come for advice I can't drive them away. Sometimes the poor have recourse to me for help. And indeed there are no doctors here at all.
The events of the passage may be given paucis verbis. We had nine accouchements in the steerage amongst the emigrants, some of them premature from violent sea-sickness, and seven deaths all children. Our deaths, as I have said, were confined to the children. The adults kept free from fever; an astonishing fact, when the confinement and closeness of a steerage birth is taken into account.
Keep in mind that all Uncle Mo's knowledge of Aunt M'riar's antecedents was summed up in the fact of her widowhood, which he took for granted although he had never received it totidem verbis when she first came to supplant Mrs. Twiggins and which had been confirmed as Time went on, and no husband appeared to claim her.
It is the folly rather than the wickedness of vice which Horace describes with such playful skill and such keenness of observation. He was the first to mould the Latin tongue to the Greek lyric measures. Quintilian's criticism is indorsed by all scholars, Lyricorum Horatius fere solus legi dignus, in verbis felicissime audax.
I beg them therefore to lay to heart these two weighty sayings of the herald of Modern Science: "Syllogismus ex propositionibus constat, propositiones ex verbis, verba notionum tesserae sunt. Novum Organon, ii. 14.
Of this description are the contracts of loan, deposit, and pledge, security for indebtedness. Till the subject is actually lent, deposited, or pledged, it does not form the special contract of loan, deposit, or pledge." Next to the perfection of contracts by re, the intervention of things, were obligations contracted by verbis, spoken words, and by literis, or writings.
By his advice and counsels were accords and reconcilements no less firmly made than if the verdict of a sovereign judge had been interposed therein, although, in very deed, he was no judge at all, but a right honest man, as you may well conceive, arg. in l. sed si unius. ff. de jure-jur. et de verbis obligatoriis l.continuus.
"Something!" said Master Pedro; "this show of mine has sixty thousand novel things in it; let me tell you, Senor Don Quixote, it is one of the best-worth-seeing things in the world this day; but operibus credite et non verbis, and now let's get to work, for it is growing late, and we have a great deal to do and to say and show."
But though the latter author affirms, that force was used to oblige the cardinal to take that step, he by no means agrees with Sir Thomas More in the repugnance of the queen to comply, nor in that idle discussion on the privileges of sanctuaries, on which Sir Thomas has wasted so many words. On the contrary, the chronicle declares, that the queen "Verbis gratanter annues, dimisit puerum."
