Curious and yet crassly human it is that, with all this poetry and romance, arose at once the filthiest institution of the modern world and the costliest. For on Negro slavery in America was built, not simply the abortive cotton kingdom, but the foundations of that modern imperialism which is based on the despising of backward men.

In the beginning, indeed, all that restrained her from doing so was her knowledge that Maitland would be more pained by her sacrifice than gladdened or relieved. He was so sure of clearing himself.... It was inconceivable to her that there could be men so stupid and crassly unobservant as to be able to confuse the identity of the two men for a single instant.

In other words, the notion of trust was never completely divorced from that of possession. The Roman law rested on a totally different basis. It represented the legal ethics of a society on most of its sides brutally and crassly individualistic.

'A canting hypocrite, a psalm-singer and devil-dodger, he has no civilization worth the name, and his customs are filthy. Since the great trek he has acquired, from long intercourse with his Kaffir slaves, many of the native's savage traits. In short, a born liar, credulous and barbarous, crassly ignorant and inconceivably stubborn.

At all events, the offending word passed all the sentries and was printed as written, when, too late, it caught the horrified eye of the proprietor.

Gabriele, bothered by the heat, turned away from the soldiers and then took a glance at the sun. She turned toward her mother and mentioned some eagerness for Christmas. Her mother turned toward Gabriele with stoic facial expressions and then crassly spoke in German that Gabriele should stop thinking about Christmas since it was a long way off.

Simpson's tone implied that her mistress had been somewhat crassly sleeping while more sensitive persons had been awake and suffering. Elizabeth rubbed her eyes. "But what's wrong, Simpson, and where are we?" "Goodness knows, my lady. We're hours away from Winnipeg that's all I know and we're likely to stay here, by what Yerkes says." "Has there been an accident?"

It was lighted to-night as usual, as though nothing whatever had happened. I thought of the men I had seen that day. How crassly ignorant they seemed. And yet in a few brief hours they had paralyzed all that the tower had planned, reduced it all to silence, nothing. Could it be that such upheavals as these meant an end to the rule of the world from above, by the keen minds of the men at the top?

Fact is, I've been sort of touring with a lady and her father, and you would be in the way!" "Aaaaaaah! You see! Why, my boy, I will not only stick, but for you, I shall do the nimble John Alden and win the lady fair.
