I sought you but on the behalf of my father, Master Adam Warner, who would fain have the permission accorded to other scholars, to see the Lord Henry of Windsor, who was gracious to him in other days, and to while the duress of that princely captive with the show of a quaint instrument he has invented."

The house was never clean nor tidy, but always being frightfully disarranged for cleaning or tidying up, and she cooked because food had to be cooked and with a sound moralist's entire disregard of the quality of the consequences. The food came from her hands done rather than improved, and looking as uncomfortable as savages clothed under duress by a missionary with a stock of out-sizes.

"Wicked!" cried Billy springing from his chair excitedly, and walking across the room, gloves in one hand, stick in the other, and Brummel coat buttoned tightly across the questionable waistcoat, "my dear lady, tell her it will be wicked damnable beg pardon, beg pardon; but I must repeat, dear lady, it will be wicked and wrong a damning wrong, if she keeps the promise obtained by force by force, lady, by duress.

Then it would be like him to struggle with himself till he could struggle no longer and to ask his promise back, and it would be like her to give it back. His profanity was the heritage of his boyhood and young manhood in social conditions and under the duress of exigencies in which everybody swore about as impersonally as he smoked.

D'Orville who meantime had been making his little arrangements with the other party protested that the note had been written under duress, and refused to comply with its directions. Time was pressing, for the Duke of Bouillon and the Count of St. Pol lay with a considerable force in the neighbourhood, obviously menacing Ham.

Benton looked narrowly at Von Ritz. "How much does she know of the truth?" "Absolutely nothing. She has been persuaded to regard the truancy as a break in the routine of Court life, which " Von Ritz hesitated, then went on doggedly "which she finds distasteful. She does not even know that the Duke is free. That is as closely guarded a secret as the fact that he was being held under duress."

He bent down and put his arm about her, laying his cheek against hers. The little red spot where his kiss had fallen was now quite drowned out in the colour that rushed over her face. "If you'll marry me, Alma, I'll forgive you," he said. A little smile escaped from the duress of Alma's lips and twitched her dimples.

Jerrold, and, since he was in duress, she would lead with no one, and sent them off wondering and greatly excited, there came running up to the carriage a telegraph messenger boy, who handed her a despatch. "I was going up to the avenue, mum," he explained, "but I seen you here." Nina's face paled as she tore it open and read the curt lines: "Come to me, here. Your help needed instantly."

Doubtless it is a depressing thing to consume one's strength and one's life driving the plough through the bosom of the jealous earth, which yields the treasures of its fecundity only under duress, when a bit of the blackest and coarsest bread at the end of the day is the only reward and the only profit of such laborious toil.
