Opposed to the Girondists was a party which, having been long execrated throughout the civilized world, has of late such is the ebb and flow of opinion found not only apologists, but even eulogists. We are not disposed to deny that some members of the Mountain were sincere and public-spirited men.
The reply of the electors to the dispirited, degraded, downtrodden old monarch was the unkindest cut of all. Much as Rhodolph is to be execrated and despised, one can hardly refrain from an emotion of sympathy in view of this new blow which fell upon him. A deputation sent from the electoral college met him in his palace at Prague.
Only the brave soldier receives the laurels of his country's gratitude; the skulking coward is execrated by all." The only response on the part of Markland was a deep sigh. He saw the truth that would make him free, but did not feel within himself a power sufficient to break the cords that bound him.
I have stayed with a mayor who did not know that England was an island; I have been the guest of a citizen who had never heard of Scotland, and to whom, therefore, my nationality was an enigma: but I never met any one I mean of this same class who had not heard of Palmerston. He was a mysterious personage, execrated by the "blacks" and adored by the "reds."
In spite of Grecian infidelity, marriage is still honoured among our people. But she who mocks what is sacred, and tramples holy customs under foot, shall be accursed, execrated, given over to want, hunger, disease, death!"
The foxes are blamed for the geese and the chickens, and the hunt execrated for not killing enough cubs, but Reynard is not always guilty. Eggs and poultry vanish. The shepherds have ample opportunities for disposing of a few spare lambs to a general dealer whose trap is handy. Certainly, continuous gin does not chill the faculties.
The blockade of New York Harbor by two British frigates, the Cambrian and the Leander, exasperated merchants beyond measure. On board the Leander was a young midshipman, Basil Hall, who in after years described the activities of this execrated frigate.
He was very proud of his art-letters, as he called them; but then Fulkerson was proud of everything he secured for his syndicate. The fact that he had secured it gave it value; he felt as if he had written it himself. One art trod upon another's heels with Beaton. He had worked at it in a fury till the light failed him, and he execrated the dying day.
She had seen duchesses at Vaubyessard with clumsier waists and commoner ways, and she execrated the injustice of God. She leant her head against the walls to weep; she envied lives of stir; longed for masked balls, for violent pleasures, with all the wildness that she did not know, but that these must surely yield. She grew pale and suffered from palpitations of the heart.
"Brigit je t'aime, je t'aime. I am infamous, I am a monster, a father to be execrated by all honest men and women, but I love you!" He laid the violin down in a chair and came to her. "Et toi?" he asked hoarsely. The moment had come when she must think, she told herself, but her brain refused to work. The only thing that mattered was that he should stay.
