"I do believe I have another one, somewhere," I admitted. "Then go and find it," she commanded. "You need some one to look after you." I turned on her like the proverbial flash, or perhaps like the Downtrodden worm. "Isn't that just what I've been gnashing my teeth over?" I asked. "I'm glad you have the grace to admit it." "I'll admit anything you like," she said.
The organ-blower works harder with his muscles, for that matter, than the organ player, and may perhaps be exasperated into thinking himself a downtrodden martyr because he does not receive the same pay for his services.
"You certainly were a downtrodden little nipper as ever was. D'you remember the time we went canoeing in the flood on your old p'rambulator?" "Not likely to forget it." "What was it?" Wally asked. "Tell us, Jim." "Norah had a pram like most kids," Jim began. "Well, I like that," said Norah, in great indignation. "It was yours first!"
Other nations have freed themselves gradually from the yoke of Rome, so baleful in its influences to all vigorous strength and constitutional greatness. And now Italy has certainly a future before her, downtrodden in the dust as she has been for many years. Garibaldi's was the arm to raise her; his the voice to hail Victor Emmanuel with the proud title of "Re d'Italia."
During three days the Grand Army filed over the river and melted away into the sandy wastes. No foe at first contested their march, but neither were they met by the crowds of downtrodden natives whom their fancy pictured as thronging to welcome the liberators.

"She bullies me horribly always did." He slipped his hand through her arm, and they looked up at him with such radiant faces that the old man smiled involuntarily. "Ah, I think you'll be all right," he said.
So I ruled with a high hand, astonishing the provincial officials, and causing thousands of downtrodden subjects to begin to believe that perhaps they were really human beings, with some claim on royal justice and kindness. "I fairly reveled in my imperial power, but I never forgot to be prudent.
What is the hope of the world?" he asked. "America these United States, a bulwark against tyranny, an asylum for the aspiring and the downtrodden. The eyes of the nations are upon us. In the souls of the survivors and of the sons and daughters of the patriots who have died in defence of the liberties of our beloved country abide the seed and inspiration for new victories of peace.
Examine Our Cause, inquire into the things that have befallen Us, and decide justly between Us and Our enemies, and be ye of them that act equitably towards their neighbor. If ye stay not the hand of the oppressor, if ye fail to safeguard the rights of the downtrodden, what right have ye then to vaunt yourselves among men?
