'Le Galbanum ne coute rien'; and then say that you are willing to do as they please; but that you hope an equitable consideration will be had to the two thousand pounds, which your seat cost you in the present parliament, of which not above half the term is expired.
Take, for instance, this phrase that set me writing, 'Ce nest que le premier pas qui coûte'. It is false.
An embrace, "a heart wrench;" and then a wave of the handkerchief, while "the Blackbird" African steam ship fussed its way out of the Mersey, having on board the British scape-goat sent away "by the hand of a fit man" one "Captain English" into the wilderness of Fernando Po. "Unhappily," commented Burton, "I am not one of those independents who can say ce n'est que le premier pas qui coute."
Success, in a greater or lesser degree, always follows patient industry at the Antipodes; it can scarcely be said to do so in Britain. "Now, Il n'y a que le premier pas qui coûte, and the worst time you will have is at the first; also, it is only for the start that you need advice, after you become 'colonized' you can look out for yourselves.

'I didn't know, said Charteris, 'but I'm very glad to hear it. For hist! I have a ger-rudge against the person. Beneath my ban that mystic man shall suffer, coute que coute, Matilda. He sat upon me publicly, and the resultant blot on my scutcheon can only be wiped out with blood, or broken rules, he added. This was true.
Don't forget to" etc. At last! at last! No retreating now, Coute que coute! we must take in the plank and embark on our shaky craft. The Marquis attacked the overture by playing some vigorous arpeggios and pompous chords. The curtains were drawn aside and the lord of the manor entered. After his monologue, which he did very well, he hesitated a moment.
