Yet how could I resolve to save Foster at the cost of dooming Olivia to a life-long bondage should he discover where she was, or to life-long poverty should she remain concealed? If I were only sure that she was alive! But if she were dead why, then all motive for keeping back this chance of saving him would be taken away. It was for her sake merely that I hesitated.
He hated them without admitting the feeling to himself, and when he had one before him at the bar, he condemned her out of pique, convinced all the while that he was dooming her justly and rightly for the public good.
It was in vain that Cepheus remonstrated, "You should have claimed her when she lay bound to the rock, the monster's victim. The sentence of the gods dooming her to such a fate dissolved all engagements, as death itself would have done.:" Phineus made no reply, but hurled his javelin at Perseus, but it missed its mark and fell harmless.
I would not have one iota taken from the justice the deadly and dooming weight of my dying curse." Here violent spasms broke on the speech of the sufferer; and when, by medicine and his daughter's attentions, he had recovered, he said, in a lower and calmer key: "Is all quiet below, Constance? Are all in bed? The landlady the servants our fellow-lodgers?" "All, my father."
"Judge, then, as physician, and let the responsibility rest with you. At this moment, all convulsion, all struggle, has ceased; the frame is at rest. Look on her, and perhaps only the physician's eye could distinguish her state from death. It is not sleep, it is not trance, it is not the dooming coma from which there is no awaking. Shall I call it by the name received in our schools?
It was out of the question to suppose, therefore, that a measure, dooming all who were not Catholics to exile, could be entertained. None would change their religion, and none would consent, voluntarily, to abandon for ever their homes, friends, and property. "Such a peace," he said, "would be poor and pitiable indeed." These, then, were the sentiments of the party now about to negotiate.
"Why hadn't you thought of that when you first came to me?" "I cannot tell. I didn't know that I could even get a passport for France till the other day." Both were silent while the painter filled his pipe. "Well," he said presently, "I'm very sorry. I'm afraid you're dooming yourself to many bitter disappointments in going to America. What do you expect to do there?" "Why, with my inventions"
It was in vain that Cepheus remonstrated "You should have claimed her when she lay bound to the rock, the monster's victim. The sentence of the gods dooming her to such a fate dissolved all engagements, as death itself would have done." Phineus made no reply, but hurled his javelin at Perseus, but it missed its mark and fell harmless.
He who sinks for the second time in icy waters, especially when hampered by skates, may very likely not come up again. "It must have been about here that he went down," calculated Prescott, deliberately, as he swam through the open water. "Now, then!" Down went Dick. To those looking on, it was heroic -sublime? Yet it looked as though the rescuer must be dooming himself.
I felt like a judge who had to pronounce sentence upon him dooming his dearest hopes to painful and instant death. I could hear him on the lawn with Tommy the Mate, laughing like a boy let loose from school, and when I went down to him he greeted me with a cry of joy that was almost heart-breaking.
