Now know that this author publisheth his name at large to all his books, and what you shall see otherwise he disowns." Bunyan was imprisoned for teaching the gospel in its purity to the poor, and for refusing conformity to national creeds and ceremonies.

A soul thus pure and large disowns the paltry rules of dignity, the silly notions of great and mean, by which fashion distorts God's real proportions; is utterly delivered from the spirit of contempt; and, in consulting for the benign administration of life, will learn many a truth, and discharge many ant office, from which lesser beings, esteeming themselves greater, would shrink from as ignoble.

Twenty times I was on the eve of interrupting her, and saying, 'But, madam, I am a beggar my wife has not a shilling I have absolutely nothing her father disowns us my commission is sold, and in three weeks, the 'Hotel de Londres' and the 'Palais Royale, will be some hundred pounds the richer, and I without the fare of a cab, to drive me to the Seine to drown myself.

If then any B an, or G an, should presume to bore you on the subject, to ask you what 'novel' Miss Bronte has been 'publishing, you can just say, with the distinct firmness of which you are perfect mistress when you choose, that you are authorised by Miss Bronte to say, that she repels and disowns every accusation of the kind.

"In my short experience of life," said I, when Sir John had done speaking, "I have often observed it as a hardship, that a man must not only submit to be condemned for doctrines he disowns, but also for consequences which others may draw from the doctrines he maintains, though he himself, both practically and speculatively, disavows any such consequences."

In that strange tone, that seemed to have been born with my existence, he exclaimed, distinctly, yet not loudly, "Brother Ralph, listen to me!" "Liar, cheat, swindler!" I hissed forth in an impassioned whisper, close to his inclined ear, "my heart disowns you my soul abhors you my gorge rises at you. I abominate I loathe you most contemptible, yet most ineffable liar!"

Surely all nature proclaims, that if God planted any spiritual nature at all in man, it was in stable equilibrium, able to right itself when deranged. He hereby tells me that he is not my Creator, and he disclaims his right over me, as a father who disowns a child.

"It is he," replied the queen, with a glow, "who is most to blame for alienating the nation from the throne. Never will the renegade count be forgiven! Never can the king stoop so low as to pardon this apostate, who frivolously professes the new religion of 'liberty, and disowns the faith of his fathers."

He is mayor of an arrondissement, a deputy, colonel of the National Guard, judge in the commercial courts; he disowns the Grandets of Saumur, and means to ally himself with some ducal family, ducal under favor of Napoleon."

No animal of the higher sort abandons or disowns its cub, and yet there are many men who turn their backs on their children for fear of what people will say. If I, having a son, were enamoured of the most beautiful woman in the world, and she required me to forget that son, I would stifle my passion sooner than abandon the little one.
