"I think I shall get my money," said Tamada, and something looked out of his eyes that betrayed a purpose already gained, Rainey fancied, as a chess player might gain assurance of victory by the looking ahead to all conceivable moves against him, and providing a counter-play that would achieve the game. It was borne in upon him that Tamada had resources he could not fathom.
Your flitting recollection brings back with gushes of exultation the figure of that little, blue-eyed hoiden, Madge, as she came with her work to pass the long evenings with Nelly; it calls again the shy glances that you cast upon her, and your naïve ignorance of all the little counter-play that might well have passed between Frank and Nelly.
But then, the next instant, she was thrilled by the bold and shrewd counter-play of the cow-punchers that blocked the horse's strategy. Marion had scarcely comprehended all this, and imperfectly, when a terrifying thing occurred. The golden horse seemed to have paused and gathered all his forces for an effort that should make his best previous performance look like the silly antics of a colt.
In the complications then involving the political and religious organizations of Europe, the play and counter-play of motives are difficult to follow, and just discrimination becomes at times almost impossible. In like manner, the troublous times in which Mary Stuart was called to act her part rendered her own way intricate and uncertain.
This pious fraud is openly recommended by Plato. The division of the human mind into REASON or Intelligence; ENERGY, Courage, Spirit, or the Military Virtue; and Many-headed APPETITE, all in mutual counter-play is transferred to the State, each of the three parts being represented by one of the political orders or divisions of the community.
Without result to speak of; Seidlitz and Consorts making good counter-play; the poor old 1,200 of Garrison growing almost young again with energy, under their Seidlitzes; and the population zealously co-operating, especially quenching all fires that rose. What greatly contributed withal was the arrival of Prince Eugen overnight.
Explain the conflict with the arrival of the true father, and the amusing counter-play. Why does Lucentio's suit excel that of any other in interest? Is Bianca wrong in acting independently of her father? Does the Shrew justify her reputation on her first appearance?
