Hen-coops, chairs, half-a-dozen flower-pots containing sickly specimens of plants, and all other movables being cleared from the upper deck, we set sail, and shot the bridge very neatly, only having a few inches of daylight between the upper deck and the wooden beams upon which the roadway rests. Ce nest que, le premier "pont" que coute.
I wish I had a thousand like you; for that affair of the river tells where a man will be found when the time comes. God bless you, Corny!" leaning forward in his saddle, to give me another shake of the hand; "we must remain friends, coute qui coute." There was no withstanding this frankness, and so much good-temper.
"C'est le premier pas qui coute," and Malcolm proved the truth of the old French proverb, as he dismissed his fly and walked up the dark drive towards the Wood House. He no longer felt the hot and cold fits that had shaken him as though with inward ague on his previous visit. He had seen Elizabeth again, had at least retained his outward calmness, and now he felt more sure of himself.
"Ce n'est que le premier pas qui coute." In the course of another week the Queen took a second trip to the Continent, sailing to Ostend to pay the most natural visit in the world the only thing singular about it was that it had been so long delayed to her uncle, King Leopold.
It will be a far pleasanter age to live in than the present, and more favourable to the production of great intellectual work, for life will be more leisurely, and social conditions more stable.

But Weber said: "There can be no true sympathy between us while you detest a food I relish. For the love of me, swallow this oyster." The first three were a severe trial, but, as the French might say, "Ce n'est pas que la première huitre qui coute."
"Je quitte mon éclat quand je suis sans témoins, Et je me puis vanter enfin d'être la chose Qui contente le plus et qui coûte le moins." There is no joy to anyone without me; I embellish at times, at times I distort; I disdain and I applaud; to share me, one must not be stupid.
Sharp, when a respectful pause had shown both the young men that they need expect nothing more 'from their fair companion; "but I fear I must set you down as belonging to those who wish to see the power of England reduced, coute qui coute." This was received as it was meant, or as a real opinion veiled under pleasantry.
A crowd assembled on the Boulevards; which, however, soon dispersed when it became known that English soldiers were determined, coute qu'il coute, to prevent their countrywomen from being ridiculed.
I suppose that it is the reaction, produced by finding that it is not quite so bad as it appears, that reconciles people to their lot, and makes them so contented. We have got some scraps of China news; and what there is, seems to be pacific. At Sea. May 15th. If we go on to China, if we take the matter in hand, then I think, coûte que coûte, we must finish it, and finish it thoroughly.
