I am not recommending to parents the system of delay in execution of sentence; but I must say that in my case it was responsible for an invaluable discipline. For example, the Textile tangle. I knew I was in all human probability doomed to go down before the Stock Exchange had been open an hour the next morning.
A cloud passed over the face of Harding, and he remarked sadly: "That poor girl seems doomed to have sorrow dog her steps. But you knew her father, doctor?" "Yes, I knew him long years ago, and I happen to know of his having been out here, working for a fortune in the mines, I believe." "You are sure that it is the one she seeks?" "The names are the same.
"Say that it will be, my Wilfrid!" "You must give me time" "This subject always makes you cold." "My own Lena!" "Can I be, if we are doomed to be parted when we die?" There is small space for compunction in a man's heart when he is in Wilfrid's state, burning with the revival of what seemed to him a superhuman attachment.
"Am I doomed to cause the destruction of every vessel I sail aboard?" I said to myself, with a groan of anguish, and a voice within me seemed to reply, "Yes that is to be your fate; but leap overboard and end it, and you will disappoint the malignity of the monarch of the tempest." Happily the prayers my good grandmother had taught me had not all been forgotten.
My wife, always brave, was urging the women around her to sit still and keep quiet. There was nothing else to do. Either that fire would be extinguished or we were doomed. There was no possibility of escape through the mass of people behind us and I realized that fact instantly.
Was this doomed house of Brandon never to know repose or fraternity? Was it credible? Had it actually occurred, that strange confession of Dorcas Brandon's? Could anything be imagined so mad so unaccountable? She reviewed Stanley in her mind's eye.
Though Donna Florinda is not yet past the age when the heart is finally subdued, and there is still so much to bind her to the world, she will assure thee of this truth, or I greatly mistake the excellence of that mind, which hath hitherto led her so far blameless, in this erring pilgrimage to which we are all doomed."
Linton, on the contrary, displayed the true courage of a loyal and faithful soul: he trusted God; and God comforted him. One hoped, and the other despaired: they chose their own lots, and were righteously doomed to endure them. But you'll not want to hear my moralising, Mr. Lockwood; you'll judge, as well as I can, all these things: at least, you'll think you will, and that's the same.
The stedfast followers of the Covenanters expected that, on the cessation of the persecution, there would be the restoration of the whole Covenanted Reformation in Church and State. But their just expectations were doomed to bitter disappointment.
He then hove up anchor and put to sea, and as we sailed along the shore, he dropped six black fellows with his rifle, remarkin' that 'that would spoil the trade for the next comers. But, as I was sayin', I'm up to the ways o' these fellows. One o' the laws o' the country is, that every shipwrecked person who happens to be cast ashore, be he dead or alive, is doomed to be roasted and eaten.
