With difficulty I controlled myself under that taunt the cruellest he could have flung at me in Bianca's hearing. "Your business here?" I snarled.
Goddess, who shalt never die, List to what I say; Thou who makest me to lie Weak beneath thy sway, If my life must know Ending at thy blow, Cruellest! Own it perished so But at thy behest.

I ask any man, Is not this slavery? Van Stingey was now rich had horses, wagons, and a splendid mansion. He took another, and a third contract, in which he was very successful.
"This peace- offering should propitiate the angriest, cruellest goddess in the universe; and for one who was neither angry nor really cruel well, she should be satisfied.... altogether satisfied," she added, as she put her cheek against the warm fur of the captive's neck, and let it feel her hand with its lips.
At land, the arms of Lewis XIV. triumphed; he conquered Gueldres, Overyssell, and the city and province of Utretcht. This maddened the populace. They massacred John De Witt, and Cornelius De Witt, his brother, after having subjected them to the cruellest tortures and the most brutal indignities. To the indelible reproach of William III. he did not interfere to prevent or stop these horrors.
