At last she ventured to go and ask my grandfather if she might marry Foka, but her master took the request in bad part, flew into a passion, and punished poor Natashka by exiling her to a farm which he owned in a remote quarter of the Steppes. At length, when she had been gone six months and nobody could be found to replace her, she was recalled to her former duties.
George's final stage, and he knew too that he would never again enter the home he loved; but this last he could not tell him outright. He would rather have cut his right hand off than tell him at all. Being even the humblest instrument in the exiling of a man like St. George Wilmot Temple was in itself a torture. "And when do you want me to quit?" he said calmly.
The reign of The Thirty was one of blood, confiscation, and death. Supported by a Spartan garrison, they tyrannized at their own cruel will, murdering, confiscating, exiling, until they converted Athens into a prototype of Paris during the French Revolution. At length the saturnalia of crime came to an end. Even the enemies of Athens began to pity her sad state.
Yet both were exiling themselves from these happy abodes, and putting life and fortune at hazard in the service of their country. Schuyler and Lee had early military recollections to draw them together. Both had served under Abercrombie in the expedition against Ticonderoga.
Atrocious proposal. Plan arranged for disposing of the child. Generous conduct of Lycurgus. Serious difficulties encountered. Resentment of the queen. Lycurgus resolves on exiling himself from Sparta. Adventures of Lycurgus during his absence. Account of Charilaus. His inefficiency. Discontent of the people. Lycurgus is invited to return. He finally complies. He consults the oracle at Delphi.
When the earls of Douglas, of Moray, of March, and Dunbar departed from the great host, they took their way thinking to pass the water and to enter into the bishopric of Durham, and to ride to the town and then to return, brenning and exiling the country and so to come to Newcastle and to lodge there in the town in the despite of all the Englishmen.
These States had been peopled for the most part by Puritans men who had left England voluntarily, exiling themselves rather than submit to the laws and religion of the country, and among them, as among a portion of the Irish population of America at the present time, the feeling of hatred against the government of England was, in a way, hereditary. So far but few acts of violence had taken place.
In carrying out the painful task of weeding out and exiling the sufferers, the officials employed met with unusual difficulties; and the general foreign community was not itself aware of the importance of making an attempt to "stamp out" the disease, until the beginning of Lunalilo's reign, when the apparently rapid spread of leprosy, and sundry rumours that others than natives were affected by it, excited general alarm, and not unreasonably, for medical science, after protracted investigation, knows less of leprosy than of cholera.
'I know, he interrupted, 'that I cannot see you exiling yourself with your brother, because you think you have no one else to turn to you, who are so infinitely dear 'This is no time for satire, she said, drawing aside with offence, but still wearily, and as if she had not given attention enough to understand him.
Like a fool, I have tried to suffer in silence, to consecrate to you my resignation; I have tried to conceal my tears; you have played the spy, and you have counted them as witnesses against me. Fool that I am! I have thought of crossing seas, of exiling myself from France with you, of dying far from all who have loved me, leaning for sole support on a heart that doubts me. Fool that I am!
