But the other stretcher-bearer said there was still life in him; and partly because the ground about them was pattering with bullets, and the air about them clamant and reverberating with the rush and roar of passing and exploding shells and bombs, and that particular spot, therefore, no place or time for argument; partly because stretcher-bearers have a stubborn conviction and fundamental belief which, by the way, has saved many a life even against their own momentary judgment that while there is life there is hope, that a man "isn't dead till he's buried," and finally that a stretcher must always be brought in with a load, a live one if possible, and the nearest thing to alive if not, they brought him in.
Then Boris guarded, and Jorian in his turn threw, with a like result, though, perhaps, a little less featly done on Boris's part. All the while there was a clamant and manifold astonishment in the kitchen of the inn, together with prodigal and much-whispering wonder. Then ensued other plays. Boris stood with his elbow crooked and his left hand on his hip, with his back also turned to Jorian.
My text does: 'In this mountain shall the Lord make unto all people a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the less well refined. Friends, look at these hearts of yours with their yearnings, with their passionate desires, with their clamant needs. Will any human love the purest, the sweetest, the most unselfish, the most utter in its surrender satisfy the heart-hunger of the poorest of us?
And so I repeat we must begin with the assumption that, though we have not yet spelt it out, God must have had some great purpose of love when He created men and women with a clamant sex instinct at the center of their personalities. Hebrew instinct declared that "God saw everything that He had made, and behold it was very good."
Thus he might avoid the likely danger of too suddenly surprising the sometimes hasty Mr. Robert. "Is that you, Bushrod?" called the clamant, clear voice of the gray ghost. "Yes, suh, Marse Robert." "What the devil are you doing out at this time of night?" For the first time in his life, Uncle Bushrod told Marse Robert a falsehood. He could not repress it. He would have to circumlocute a little.
He awoke once at the sound of the great bell from the tower calling the monks to the night-office, and smiled at the fantastic folly of it all. His work during the last month had erased the last remnants of superstitious fear, and to him now more than ever the Religious Houses were but noisy rookeries, clamant with bells and chanting, and foul with the refuse of idleness.
He began to consider of what material this great power in his country was composed. Originally, the Press in all countries, was intended to be the most magnificent institution of the civilized world, the voice of truth, of liberty, of justice a voice which in its clamant utterances could neither be bribed nor biassed to cry out false news.
The battle raged loud and long; and pamphleteer rent pamphleteer in endless, wordy warfare. By 1817 the grievance had become clamant; and when that inquisitive agitator, Robert Gourlay, asked the farmers of Upper Canada what hindered settlement, he received the answer Clergy Reserves. Two years later the Assembly asked for a return of the lands leased and the revenue derived from them.
But the deeper solution lies in the fact that the one religion rises from the hearts of men, corresponds to their moral condition, and is largely moulded by their lower nature; while the other is from above, corresponds, indeed, with the best and deepest longings and needs of souls, but contravenes many of their most clamant wishes, and necessarily sets before them a standard high and difficult to reach.
At Madras, too, Bell had stumbled upon the system of "mutual instruction" which he had learned from the easy methods of the indigenous schoolmaster, and which he and Lancaster taught England to apply to the clamant wants of the country, and to improve into the monitorial, pupil-teacher and grant-in-aid systems. Carey had all the native schools of the mission "conducted upon Lancaster's plan."
