At length, after she had undergone fire, the talons of beasts, and agonizing aspersion, she was wrapped in a network and thrown to a bull that tossed her in the air; she was already unconscious of all that befell her, and seemed altogether taken up with watching for the blessings that Christ had in store for her. Even the Gentiles allowed that never a woman had suffered so much or so long.
"I did not come back for your forgiveness," she exclaimed, passionately, as if clamouring against an unjust aspersion. He only said "oh!" and became silent.
"He jest 'lowed that if 'stid of warin' pants an' straddlin' hosses, ye'd pick ye out an upstandin' man an' wed him, thar mout come ter be some real men in ther fam'ly." The girl's face crimsoned. "I thought ye said hit war me ye fought erbout, Joe." "I did say so, Alexander." "An' ye didn't see no aspersion thet called fer a fight in ther way them words teched you?"
These considerations should substantially disprove the wicked aspersion lately made that British policy aimed at the subversion of republican autonomy in those two States.
It was at that time in my life, in which of all possible names and characters I had the greatest disgust to that of "un Philosophe." But I was weary of being questioned, and rather than be nothing, or at best only the abstract idea of a man, I submitted by a bow, even to the aspersion implied in the word "un Philosophe."
"He's at the mill, mother. You know he has to stay there." "I know," replied Hannah, in a tone faintly reminiscent of the old aspersion. "But I've got everything ready for him in case he should come any time if the strikers hain't killed him." "But he's safe where he is." "I presume they will try to kill him, before they get through," Hannah continued evenly.
Soames put out his hand, as if pushing away an aspersion. "I'm cogitating," he said. What on earth had made him use a word like that! "Has young Mont been bothering you again?" Fleur smiled. "Oh! Michael! He's always bothering; but he's such a good sort I don't mind him." "Well," said Soames, "I'm tired; I shall go and have a nap before dinner."
In many cases they straggled in after two, or three years. Forty-four years have dragged their slow lengths since the last roll-call. We, the survivors and descendants, have buckled on the armor of faithfulness and are honoring the memory of our martyred heroes. We are rearing monuments to perpetuate their deeds of valor. We are cleaning their revered names from aspersion.
In vain did our adventurer endeavour to vindicate himself from this aspersion; the good woman, like a great many modern disputants, proceeded with her declamation, without seeming to hear what was said on the other side of the question; and the husband was altogether neutral.
He affected to be jealous: he may, for aught I know, be inclined enough to jealousy in his natural temper; nay, he must have had it from nature, or the devil must have put it into his head; for I defy all the world to cast a just aspersion on my character: nay, the most scandalous tongues have never dared censure my reputation.
