I have been packing; perhaps it's from stooping over the trunk. This by no means satisfied Mary, who felt that things mysterious were going on about her. But she could only wait, repeating to herself that the grand denouement decidedly was not far off. At nine o'clock sounded the visitor's bell.
In the epigram the conclusion is everything; all that goes before it is only there for the sake of the surprise of the end, or denouement, as in a logical syllogism the premisses are nothing but as they necessitate the conclusion. In the sonnet the emphasis is nearly, but not quite, equally distributed, there being a slight swell, or rise, about its middle.
CHANG KUO-KAN, Minister of Education. 6th day of the 6th month of the 5th year of Chung Hua Min Kuo. This tragic dénouement did not fail to awaken within very few days among thinking minds a feeling of profound sympathy for the dead man coupled with sharp disgust for the part that foreigners had played not all, of course but a great number of them.
But I could never have dreamt of a difference so little flattering, under such circumstances, to the Duchess of Parma. From the moment of my departure from Paris on the 2d of August, 1792, the tragedy hastened to its denouement. On the night of the 9th, the tocsin was sounded, and the King and the Royal Family looked upon their fate as sealed.
George had been proved by Fortune's touchstone, and her Ladyship had chosen him for her smile. He had won the long odds. What remains to be told is simply the denouement of my own affairs.
Almost everyone said it was precisely what they expected. Annabel Daniels and her father had not expected it. They were, however, greatly pleased. In their discussion, which lasted far into the night, Captain Elkanah expressed the opinion that the unexpected denouement was the result of his interview with Eben.
The chestnut was standing near the creek-crossing, and every one knowing him well, and sure of that "something" up Mac's sleeve, feared for the Fizzer as Mac's hand came out with a "Done!" and the Fizzer gripped it with a clinching "Right ho!" Naturally we waited for the denouement, and the Fizzer appearing unsuspicious and well-pleased with the deal, we turned our attention to the Sanguine Scot.
"I've made no accusation merely a suggestion that you should ask him who he is. And as to bringing me face to face with him I can assure you" there was an inflection of ironical amusement in her light tones "no one would be less anxious for such a dénouement than Max Errington himself. Now, good-bye; think over what I've said.
As now, on a gloomy and clouded day he pursued his course along a bleak and melancholy road, his mind was filled with that dark presentiment that shadow from the coming event, which superstition believes the herald of the more tragic discoveries, or the more fearful incidents of life; he felt steeled, and prepared for some dread denouement, to a journey to which the hand of Providence seemed to conduct his steps; and he looked on the shroud that Time casts over all beyond the present moment with the same intense and painful resolve with which, in the tragic representations of life, we await the drawing up of the curtain before the last act, which contains the catastrophe that while we long, we half shudder to behold.
The Veronese, to whom this dénouement was unexpected, and who had long since been crowned with highest honors by the Republic, did not move forward, but, acknowledging the tribute of his pupil with a genial smile, he stood with folded arms, unembarrassed and commanding, scanning the faces of the assembly, well pleased with the effect produced by the words of Marcantonio, whom, at all hazards, he intended to befriend.
