Batalha has been, and Alcobaça is being, saved from ruin. The Sé Velha at Coimbra has been purged too drastically perhaps of all the additions and disfigurements of the eighteenth century, and the same is being done with the cathedral of Lisbon. Such new buildings as have been put up are usually much less successful.
The German Chancellor in 1900, Prince von Buelow, defended this anti-Polish policy in the cynical saying that "rabbits breed faster than hares," and the meaner animal, the Pole, must therefore be drastically kept down in favour of the German.
Some of our "scientists on a holiday," as they have been facetiously called when they stepped into a field in which they had not become well acquainted with the ground, have proceeded to lend assurance that God is by subtracting so drastically from what is generally attributed to the conception of God, that there is nothing much left to what they conceive as what God means.
Anthony Collins, a country gentleman who was a disciple of Locke, published in 1733 his Discourse on the Grounds and Reasons of the Christian Religion, in which he drastically exposed the weakness of the evidence for fulfilment of prophecy, depending as it does on forced and unnatural figurative interpretations.
But surely development is natural and to be expected?" "Certainly. But when a man changes drastically, sheds his character and takes on another?" "You are talking perhaps of what is called conversion?" "Well, that would be an instance of what I mean, no doubt. But there are changes of another type.
No class will abolish itself, materially alter its way of living, or drastically reconstruct itself, albeit no class is indisposed to co-operate in the unlimited socialization of any other class. In that capacity for aggression upon other classes lies the essential driving force of modern affairs." The truth of this can be tested in the socialist movement.
The denser the rabbit population, the more drastically is it ravaged by the plague. They are wiped out in a single spring by epidemic diseases usually characterized by swellings of the throat, sores under the armpits and groins, and by diarrhea." "The year 1885 was for the country around Carberry 'a rabbit year, the greatest ever known in that country. The number of rabbits was incredible.
"We want to strengthen your hands in dealing drastically with the problem. Of course, it will be one of your first measures." "We have at least six first measures already on the list," remarked the Premier, smiling. "I saw your daughter to-day," Mrs. Puttock continued. "I went to ask her to join us." "Isn't she rather young to join things?" pleaded Mr. Medland. "Poor child!
May it not even be better drastically to choke our natures, better to get a new nature than to realize the old? Surely there are perverted natures, which ought not to be developed. In the name of happiness we can decide on development or non-development, as the need may be. But the ideal of "self development" gives us no criterion. It is too sweeping, too indiscriminate.
The church was for a considerable time the chapel of Corpus Christi, and the ancient tower still rises picturesquely over the roofs of the old court of that college. Without the tower, the church would be of small interest, for the nave and chancel are comparatively late, and have been rather drastically restored.
