Ivy, and thoughtless; but it's my belief that, wi' care and circumspection, ye may yet do credit to yoursel'. But just you bear this in mind: that him that AWES siller should never GIE siller. Well, what was there to say? I accepted his rebuke, and bidding the pair farewell, set off alone upon my southward way. 'Mr. St.

We went down the river that led into it, with awes as though we were trespassers against God Himself, as though He had made it too beautiful and too fruitful for the toilers of this earth. And you who read this an hundred years hence may not believe the marvels of it to the pioneer, and in particular to one born and bred in the scanty, hard soil of the mountains.

Then she did for me a favor of such magnitude that my whole life will not be long enough to repay, but honor led me to be fair to you, or I never should have written a second time. Remember that she is my chosen wife, and forget all the rest." There is something in the tone that awes the young man, though long afterward he recalls the fact that Floyd did not say he loved her.

It is not necessary to know that great scholars inhabited the place, to recall any name or any man's career.

The Earl is dead, and he awes me for twenty-four peck of wheaten meal, forbye ten firlots of malt and other sundries, whilk siller, if these hungry Avondale Douglases come into possession, I am little likely ever to see. Surely I have more cause to mourn him a fine lad and free with his having.

An air of fashion, which is but a badge of slavery, and proves that the soul has not a strong individual character, awes simple country people into an imitation of the vices, when they cannot catch the slippery graces of politeness. Every corps is a chain of despots, who, submitting and tyrannizing without exercising their reason, become dead weights of vice and folly on the community.

"Beyond daily descending lower in my own esteem nothing." "Yet you might do so much." "I know," said Paul Mario. "But it awes me."

And then, if her father have no other child, after all, or the child he expects die in infancy, why, once reconciled to his Government and restored to his estates, the law must take its usual course, and Violante will be the greatest heiress in Europe.
