In consensum vertit. Has become the common custom. Ut primum. Just as soon as. A causal relation is also implied; hence followed by the subj. Crinem submittere. Turn. His. Ang. Sax., App. to B. 2. Super spolia, i.e. over the bloody spoils of a slain enemy. Revelant, i.e. they remove the hair and beard, which have so long veiled the face.

"Ain't we going by train 'cos I got the tickets." "No." "Well, 'ang on a minute while I gets the money back." But even this business coup was denied and with a sense of opportunity lost he entered the car. There was nothing prepossessing in Freddie Dirk's appearance. He was of the low brow, heavy jaw, bruiser type. The term a "tough" fits him closely.

Tur. Hist. Ang. Sax., App. No. 3, chap. 1. Juxta libertatem, i.e. simul cum libertate, or inter liberos homines. The form of expression is characteristic of the later Latin. Cf. Hand's Tursellinus, vol. III. p. 538. Tacitus is particularly partial to this preposition. Convictibus, refers to the entertainment of countrymen and friends, hospitiis to that of strangers. Pro fortuna.

"Everybody's getting a bit strung up," he said. He turned again to his maps. Bert sat crumpled up in the corner, apparently heedless of him. For some time both kept silence. "What did the Prince want to go and 'ang that chap for?" asked Bert, suddenly. "That was all right," said Kurt, "that was all right. QUITE right.

"Where am I to get to?" asked the watery-eyed young man, with some reason. "Say the word and I'll 'ang myself up to the gas bracket."

Everybody complaining of too much bone or too little fat; nobody wishing tough chops or cutlets, but always seeking after fine joints, when it's against reason and nature that all joints should be juicy and all cutlets tender; always complaining if livers are not sent with every fowl, always asking you to remember the trimmin's, always wanting their beef well 'ung, and then if you 'ang it a minute too long, it's left on your 'ands!

The bandit Manchu court was shaken with pallid terror, until the cicada threw off its shell in a glorious regeneration, and the present crowning triumph was achieved. The patriotic crusade started in Wu-ch`ang; the four corners of the empire responded to the call. Coast regions nobly followed in their wake, and the Yang-tsze was won back by our armies.

The young man in the trade had numerous and absorbing engagements to plead as a reason for his inability to 'ang about all day for parties to make up their minds the usurper's plea, by-the-by, for a coup d'état so perhaps some emissary might be found, to drop round to the shop to leave word. This young man was anxious to oblige, but altruism had its limits.

"Il porcellino?" questioned Marietta. "Ang," said he. And when Marietta had borne Francois, struggling and squealing in her arms, from the foreground "There you see how it is done," he remarked.

I tell you he ought to be 'ung. If you was to say to me to-morrow 'Will you 'ang old Gladstone? I'd 'andle the rope. He's a blank robber and a scoundrel, he is. "What's this new man, Lord Churchill, goin' to do? He's a red-hot 'un. He does slip into 'em, and no mistake. He's a coming man, I reckon. I never see such a flow of language as that bit where he called old Gommy a superannuated Pharisee.
