Soloman; and as the reputation of her house is uppermost in her thoughts, she atones for its imperiled condition by fainting in the arms of a grave old gentleman, who was beating a hasty retreat, and whose respectability she may compromise through this uncalled-for act.
The shadowy form of Alice never troubled me again, I believe reparation can be made beyond the tomb, and that in some far-off world the new-born spirit of Richard atones to Alice and Herbert for the wrong he did them in this. Dead! dead! You call her dead!
She can neither beseech nor demand. Set Adam free, for the sake of your Saviour, your son, free yes, free. A wide, wide space must be between you; he must go away with them, far away. Set him free! I held his arm with the hammer.... You know with the hammer. Set him free. My death death atones for everything."
One of the edifices that formed part of his palace after his retirement from active life, in 1474, was a "Silver Pavilion" intended to rival the "Golden Pavilion" of his ancestor, Yoshimitsu. During the last sixteen years of his life he died in 1490 he patronized art with a degree of liberality that atones for much of his previous profligacy.
I had listened with deep attention to the strange recital. All the disgust with which my previous knowledge of this man's character had inspired me vanished from my mind, and I felt for him compassion ay, admiration. He had suffered much. Suffering atones for crime, and in my sight he was justified. Perhaps I was too lenient in my judgment. It was natural I should be so.
She in a measure conquers evil and partly atones for her wrong, by the good which she is able to do among her fellow-beings, as much compensation as can rightfully be hoped for a woman who has once been so essentially corrupted as she.
How often, for example, we hear it said that it is not the death which atones, but the spirit in which the Saviour died not His sufferings which expiate sin, but the innocence, the meekness, the love to man and obedience to God in which they were borne. The Atonement, in short, was a moral achievement, to which physical suffering and death are essentially irrelevant.
Pettifer busied herself with rousing the kitchen fire, which was kept in under a huge 'raker' a possibility by which the coal of the midland counties atones for all its slowness and white ashes.
It embodies a curious experiment in orchestration, the violins being entirely absent from the score. The composer's idea, no doubt, was to represent by this means the grey colouring and misty atmosphere of the scene in which his opera was laid, but the originality of the idea scarcely atones for the monotony in which it resulted.
Olive listened, her mind reeling before these impetuous words. One moment she looked at Vanbrugh where he stood, his age transfigured into youth, his ugliness into majesty, by the radiance of the immortal fire that dwelt within him. Then she dropped almost at his feet crying. "I, too, am one of these outcasts; give me then this inner life which atones for all! Friend, counsel me master, teach me!
