If they want anything at any time, let them come for it themselves." "Can you beat it?" Sadie demanded wonderingly, of the universe at large. But the Irishwoman took it on herself to answer, with an explicitness equal to Hamilton's own: "Faith, and we didn't come to see you, as you know very well, I'm thinking. If it wasn't for Mrs.
But that is a question for such tribunal as may exist in this lawless town. Your Excellency's decision is final?" she added, turning to the Governor. "Absolutely irrevocable, signora. You see how it stands my orders are explicit." "Their explicitness is as nothing compared to the clearness of the next mandate you will receive from Rome," she blazed out.
"O! madam, I must pray your patience; I wish you to shrive a penitent." "Good God! Mr. Grey! for Heaven's sake be explicit." "For Heaven's sake, for your sake, for my soul's sake, I would be explicit; but explicitness is not the language of such as I am.

One newspaper eulogist went so far the other day as to pronounce the rules the product of the wisdom of all ages, beginning with the Phoenicians and coming down to our own time.
"From Mrs. Maginnis Mrs. California Maginnis," she added for the sake of explicitness and with an impulse to relax the tension of Millard's mind by playfulness. "Mrs. Maginnis?" he said with something like a start. "How does Mrs. Maginnis know anything about what takes place in Mackerelville?"

The new Secretary of State followed in the track of his patron, and with equal explicitness: "The King, Monseigneur," he replied to the appeal of the Nuncio, "is resolved to be the ruler of his own nation; and his Majesty trusts, moreover, that should the Duc de Nevers and the other Princes openly take up arms, the Pope will excommunicate them as rebels to their sovereign."
