As they are the only native women who appear in public they naturally draw your attention. The Hindoos and Mohammedans shut their women up at home and glower on yours; but the Parsi goes about with his wife and daughters with him in public, and therefore enlists your sympathy.

Like that of Calabria, it enlists the sympathy of the civilized world. It takes time for such a calamity to be realized. "Two miles below San Giuseppe we struck cinders which the soldiers were shoveling, making a narrow road for the refugees.

It cloaks its offences against right in a thousand specious forms, and it enlists the support of every man under the pretence of a sacrifice for the common good. We often fancy ourselves simple dealers in some justifiable state intrigue, when in truth we are deep in sin.
Her appeal only enlists coldness and indifference. The "Church Home" had lent an ear to her story, but that her address is very unsatisfactory, and it is got out that she is living a very suspicious life.

He is the wisest of all campaigners who enlists the enemy against himself.

But now, since she's just the same as called any student a murderer if he enlists to fight for his country and his flag well, now she hasn't got anything at all, and if she keeps on she'll have even less!" He paused in his walking to and fro and came to a halt behind his friend's chair, looking down compassionately upon the back of Ramsey's motionless head. His tone changed.
How natural that was! What made Garibaldi and Stonewall Jackson the most magnetic commanders of this century? They always rode ahead. Oh, the overcoming power of example!
