If a sheep commits a fault in the sight of an intemperate shepherd, or accidentally offends him, it is 'dogged' into obedience: the signal is given, the dog obeys the mandate, and the poor sheep flies round the field to escape from the fangs of him who should be his protector, until it becomes half dead with fright and exhaustion, while the trembling flock crowd together dreading the same fate, and the churl exults in this cowardly victory over a weak and defenceless animal."
My thoughts do twine and bud About thee, as wild vines about a tree Put out broad leaves, and soon there's nought to see Except the straggling green that hides the wood. The non-lover may also recall to our minds the notorious egotism and self-sufficiency of the poet, which seem incompatible with the humility and insatiable yearning of the lover. He exults in the declaration of Keats,
The Secretary justly exults in the advantages of the sound and uniform circulation which he has afforded in all parts of the country.
He who exults at the stake, does not triumph over pain, but because of the fact that he does not feel pain where he expected it. A parable. When we have to change an opinion about any one, we charge heavily to his account the inconvenience he thereby causes us. A nation is a detour of nature to arrive at six or seven great men. Yes, and then to get round them.
"But what about that 5 P.M. breakfast which you got, no longer ago than last September, on the express between Salisbury and Exeter?" our friend exults to ask; and we condescend to answer with forced candor: Yes, that was rather droll.
It may be a treacherous pause, this water may be as cruel as that which rages below and exults in catching a boat or a man and bounding with the victim over the cataract; but the calm was very grateful to the stunned and buffeted visitors; upon their jarred nerves it was like the peace of God. "The preacher might moralize here," said King.
Detailing the advantages of a pure life, Buddha said to his disciples: "The virtuous man rejoices in this world, and he will rejoice in the next; in both worlds has he joy. He rejoices, he exults, seeing the purity of his deed." This alluded to the acquisition of Nirvana while still in the physical body.
By some curious cross-light of mental retrospect he also knows that if Violet were the beloved wife of any other man the large-hearted professor, for instance he could see her daily without one covetous pang. He likes her very, very much, she is dear to him, but he is not in love, and he rather exults in being so cool-headed. Is it anything but a wild dream, soon burned out to ashes?
As a horse, stabled and fed, breaks loose and gallops gloriously over the plain to the place where he is wont to bathe in the fair-flowing river he holds his head high, and his mane streams upon his shoulders as he exults in his strength and flies like the wind to the haunts and feeding ground of the mares even so went forth Paris from high Pergamus, gleaming like sunlight in his armour, and he laughed aloud as he sped swiftly on his way.
His heart warms to him when he can bring forward some example of cruelty or meanness, and he exults like an inquisitor at the <i auto da fe> of an heretic when with some forgotten story he can confound the filial piety of the Rev. Robert Strickland. His industry has been amazing.
