There was no doubt of it; and in another moment Philammon would have wrenched the bill out of his opponent's hand, when, to the utter astonishment of the onlookers, he suddenly loosed his hold, shook himself free by one powerful wrench, and quietly retreated to his seat, conscience-stricken at the fearful thirst for blood which had suddenly boiled up within him as he felt his enemy under him.
Her main reason for sending no news to Thrums of late had been but the cost of the stamp, though she was also a little conscience-stricken at the kind of letters she wrote, and the sight of the materials lying ready for her proved sufficient to draw her to the table. "Is it to your grandmother you is writing the letter?" Tommy asked, for her grandmother had brought Mrs.
"Brrrr!" said the blond girl, drawing her blue knit shawl about her shoulders, "isn't it cold?" and she and her friends laughed. "O dear!" thought Kitty, "I didn't suppose they were so rude. I'm afraid I must say good night," she added aloud, after a little, and stole away the most conscience-stricken creature on that boat. She heard those people laugh again after she left them.
It's pleasanter to discover the delights myself." I felt conscience-stricken. There were no delights left in me. I ought to tell him. However, all I replied was, "How nicely you put things!" And he: "Do I? Well when may I come?" "Why any night. Only I'm not a very bright book rather dreary. Truly. I warn you. You found me in tears, remember."

"Oh, that is dreadful!" cried Emma. She was conscience-stricken. It was a bad scrape, and it was mainly her fault. "Mrs. Stanhope is so kind," she went on hopefully, "perhaps she will not be so very angry." Fani shook his head. "You don't know about it, Emma. Of course Mrs. Stanhope is the greatest benefactress in the world.
Boyd was as conscience-stricken as if he had personally wielded the poker. But the mind of Bridget was quite otherwise framed.

He's gettin' the Thick 'Un, just as I told ye!"
On the strength of this there seemed no better time to confess her doings of the afternoon when she had gone to Green Island in the Leona, and so Mary faltered out her tale, Molly once in a while coming in with excuses and comments so that in the end Miss Ada was not "vexed" at all but only said, "If it had been any one but Ellis, I might feel inclined to warn you against going out in a row-boat, but he is a good, careful little lad, and if you will call it quits, Mary, I will, for I am conscience-stricken my own self; but next time, dearie, ask me when you want to go on the water."
The sacrifice of the protomartyr brought its fruits. Verulam became Christian, and within a century was paying him the honors of a saint. In the eighth century King Offa of Mercia, having treacherously murdered King Ethelbert, became conscience-stricken, and to propitiate Heaven founded the abbey.
Pleased by the compliment, yet a little conscience-stricken at the small share he deserved of it, Uncle Enos sat rubbing up his glasses a minute, before he led to the subject he had in his mind. "Ef you fall sick or die, what then?" "I've thought of that," and Christie caught up the child as if her love could keep even death at bay.
The rumble of a distant cart woke them, and they sat up, shamefacedly rubbing their eyes. "Oh," cried Juliet, conscience-stricken, "we went to sleep! We went to sleep on duty! How could we?" "Dunno," returned Romeo, with a frank yawn. "Guess we were tired. Anyhow, the machine is all right." When the milkman came in sight, they hailed him and purchased a quart of milk.
