Brief and succinct to the point of obscurity, he betrays neither partiality nor emotion, but fearlessly pushes the argument to its last conclusion and reduces it to its lowest terms. Al-Basir does not leave the matter in this unsettled condition. He definitely gives priority logical priority, to reason. Knowledge, he says, must precede revelation.
"I watched her carefully, but beyond the facts that she is greatly unnerved by the sad affair and that she is mourning deeply for her dead husband, I can discover nothing abnormal." "You are not of opinion, then, that her mind is growing unbalanced by the strain?" "Not in the least," I reassured her. "The symptoms she betrays are but natural in a woman of her nervous, highly-strung temperament."
There is nothing that more betrays a base, ungenerous Spirit, than the giving of secret Stabs to a Man's Reputation. Lampoons and Satyrs, that are written with Wit and Spirit, are like poison'd Darts, which not only inflict a Wound, but make it incurable. For this Reason I am very much troubled when I see the Talents of Humour and Ridicule in the Possession of an ill-natured Man.
Votini, on the other hand, betrays himself: he complains of his difficulties at home, and says that the master is unjust to him; and when Derossi replies so promptly and so well to questions, as he always does, his face clouds over, he hangs his head, pretends not to hear, or tries to laugh, but he laughs awkwardly.
Feeling that friendly approval with which one recognizes a member of his own kind, Kirk let his eyes follow her, then retraced his way around the deck in the hope of meeting her face to face. A woman frequently betrays her beauty by the poise of her head, by the turn of her neck, or the lines of her figure, just as truly as by a full glimpse of her features.
Sometimes she withdraws her glance from the jostling throng to study the untidy and overlapping labels on the big portmanteau; she betrays a certain curiosity, but she shows at the same time a full determination not to seem over-impressed.
"Our set," he laughed, "but that is not the whole world, alas!" "I know that men well bred, cultivated, refined, even honorable men, seem to be able to repeat every emotion of life. A woman scales the heights but once. Hence it must depend, in the case of women capable of deep love on the men whether the relation into which marriage betrays them be decent or indecent.
"Who is that man, Son?" he asked. "He is Ana my private scribe and librarian, O Pharaoh, whom I trust. It was he who saved me from harm but last night." "You say it, Son. Let him remain in attendance on you, knowing that if he betrays our council he dies." Userti looked up frowning as though she were about to speak.
"Until he had mended the clock, my lord," Maignan stammered, quite out of countenance. "But he set it going half-an-hour ago; and I let him go, according to your order." It is in the face of such CONTRETEMPS as these that the low-bred man betrays himself.
Far be it from him, however, to add a word to what "everybody says." "Everybody says what?" demands the Count, discovering himself. Susanna is overwhelmed with confusion, and plainly betrays her agitation. She swoons, and her companions are about to place her in the arm-chair when she realizes a danger and recovers consciousness.
