Why then am I devoid of all to live That manly comforts to a man can give? To live untaught religion's soothing balm, Or life's choice arts; to live unknown the calm, Of soft domestic ease; those sweets of life, The duteous offspring, and th' endearing wife? To live to property and rights unknown, Not e'en the common benefits my own!

She has swooned. Eleanor! my wife " "Begone, begone, my son," said Father Cyril, "it will be the better for her." "It may be," said Reginald, "yet to leave her thus Here, nurse, support her, tend her well. Give her my tenderest greetings. Arthur, be duteous to her; talk to her of our return; farewell, my boy, and blessings on you. Eustace, mount."

'I'll leave word at the lodge. 'By-the-bye, are you up to walking? 'Candidly, now I think of it, I doubt whether I am. Come, and let us order the carriage.

A lady once offered her an asylum in her family; but she would not leave me.
Early and late, and often in the day, was the duteous daughter at his cell, for the governor and the turn-keys favoured her. Who could resist such beauty and affection, entreating to stay with a father about to stand on trial for his life, and making every effort to be allowed only to pray with him?

Casaubon: she would have lost some of her halo if she had been without that duteous preoccupation; and yet at the next moment the husband's sandy absorption of such nectar was too intolerable; and Will's longing to say damaging things about him was perhaps not the less tormenting because he felt the strongest reasons for restraining it. Will had not been invited to dine the next day.
