Weeks put his head on one side so that he looked like a sparrow on a perch. "I've been trying to find that out for years. I think I'm a Unitarian." "But that's a dissenter," said Philip. He could not imagine why they both burst into laughter, Hayward uproariously, and Weeks with a funny chuckle. "And in England dissenters aren't gentlemen, are they?" asked Weeks.
Thus, the Christian religion means to the Anglican the Bible as interpreted by the Thirty-nine Articles; to the Dissenter, the same book, as interpreted by some confession, such as the Westminster, the Calvinistic, or the like.
I said I would avail of no technicality that I would object to no juror Catholic, Protestant, or Dissenter. All I asked all I demanded was to be "put upon my country," in the real, fair, and full sense and spirit of the constitution. All I asked was that the crown would keep its hand off the panel, as I would keep off mine.
The old feudal feeling between land-owner and tenant did not quake prophetically at the introduction of manufactures; the Cranworth family ignored the growing power of the manufacturers, more especially as the principal person engaged in the trade was a Dissenter.
Although only a working man, he had, by sheer force of character, made himself a power in the village. A total abstainer and non-smoker, a Dissenter in religion and lay-preacher where Dissent had never found a foothold until his coming, and an extreme Radical in politics, he was naturally something of a thorn in the side of the vicar and of the neighbouring gentry.
Wortley hoped that this would not be allowed, as he was a dissenter. "Indeed!" said Edmund; "I wonder Carter did not mention that." "Had you heard this before?" said Marian; "I thought it news." "Most of it is," said Edmund, "but not about the farm. The letting it is part of my business here, but I did not know of this man's dissent. Your correspondence has done good service."
Somerset had quite time enough to rein himself in during the old gentleman's locution, and the voice in which he answered was so cold and reckless that it did not seem his own: 'But how will they live happily together when she is a Dissenter, and a Radical, and a New-light, and a Neo-Greek, and a person of red blood; while Captain De Stancy is the reverse of them all!
"A Dissenter," said Ursula, with a certain languor; "but so, you know, is Mr. Copperhead, and he is the chief person here now-a-days. Papa thinks there is nobody like him. And so is Phoebe." "Oh, have you come so far as that?" said Reginald, with a little tinge of colour in his face. He laughed, but the name moved him.
The first to cry, 'It is the Lord! would be neither 'good churchman' nor 'good dissenter. It would be no one with so little of the mind of Christ as to imagine him caring about stupid outside matters.
They have no basis. 'I understand, said Mrs. Poulter, 'that Helen is a Dissenter. Miss Taggart, as the reader has been told, was not particularly fond of Mrs. Poulter and Mr. Goacher, but to stay with Mrs. Mudge and Miss Everard was impossible.
