There was but one place the dismal hollow itself, the scene of his heart's tragedy where his acknowledgment to God should stand; his mute "Thy will be done!" Perhaps the whole conception had lost something of its hold on his mind by contact with such harsh realities as Daphne's disavowals and his own consequent struggle with a father's weakness.
"You will state," read Rose's instructions, "that such disavowals, solemnly expressed, would afford to His Majesty a satisfactory pledge on the part of the American Government that the recurrence of similar causes will not on any occasion impose on His Majesty the necessity of authorizing those means of force to which Admiral Berkeley has resorted without authority, but which the continued repetition of such provocations as unfortunately led to the attack upon the Chesapeake might render necessary, as a just reprisal on the part of His Majesty."
But it is obvious from a letter which he wrote to Banks, after Baudin's death, and after his soul had been moved to righteous wrath by the iniquitous treatment of Flinders whom he so warmly admired and so loyally aided that suspicion, once implanted in King's mind, was not eradicated by explicit disavowals.
Anglicanism was agreed, up to this time the summer of 1839 as to its general principles. Charges of an inclination to Roman views had been promptly and stoutly met; nor was there really anything but the ignorance or ill-feeling of the accusers to throw doubt on the sincerity of these disavowals.
4 treaties equal 8 scraps of paper. 5 poisoned wells equal 1 strategic retreat. 6 iron crosses equal 1 ruined cathedral. 7 Zeppelin raids equal 7 demonstrations of frightfulness. 10 deported Belgians equal 10 unmarked graves. 11 torpedoed neutrals equal 11 disavowals. 12 Gotts equal 1 Kaiser.
Before him still the picture floated. He disavowed it, disowned it. Yet there it was, the child of his fancy, the first-born of the morning, the fruit of his concentrated thought, and as, surprisedly, he considered it, it took on such semblances of legitimacy, that the disavowals ceased. Then, slowly disintegrating, its consistence lessened. It was departing, vaporously as it had come.
On the other hand as will be made still clearer than ever the Queen was longing for peace, and was treating for peace at that moment through private agents, quite without the knowledge of the States, and in spite of her indignant disavowals in her speech to the envoys.
I cannot tell; but I shall be so glad to see you! 'And I shall be delighted to introduce you to my sister. I know you will be great friends. What a season it will be! Two such sisters as Mrs. and Miss Martindale making their appearance together will be something memorable. Violet blushed excessively, and made some inarticulate disavowals.
One was Cromwell's secretary Thurloe, the other was Thurlow, the Suffolk carrier. I am descended from the carrier." Notwithstanding Lord Thurlow's frequent and consistent disavowals of pretension to any heraldic pedigree, his collateral descendants are credited in the 'Peerages' with a descent from an ancient family. This charming book was written during the author's exile, which began in 1463.
Caesar's disavowals were, however, so faint, and people had so little confidence in their sincerity, that the cases became more and more frequent in which the titles and symbols of royalty were connected with his name. The people who wished to gain his favor saluted him in public with the name of Rex, the Latin word for king.
