Recollect, my dear friends, what were the last words which our good mother spoke to us at parting. She charged us, upon no account, for no temptation whatever, to return frequently to the same place: if we did, she forewarned us that death and ruin would certainly await us. But in what manner have we obeyed this her kind advice?
XVIII. Many remarkable prodigies had happened from the very beginning of his reign, which forewarned him of his approaching fate.
But let me urge you not to trust too much to the possibility that I may be mistaken, Mr Troubridge, for I do not believe that I am; and if it should happen to be you, and not I, who are mistaken, it would be bad for you, would it not?" "It would," I agreed. "But forewarned is forearmed, Gurney; and I would take precious good care not to be caught napping.
It was regrettable that they should have endeavoured to take gentle measures with the courier, as this had forewarned him, and he had apparently been led to remove the letter's outer wrapper which, no doubt, bore Wilding's full name and address against the chance of such an attack as they had made upon him.
At last Alfred replied, "The fact is, my dear mother, that `forewarned is being forearmed, as the saying is; and I told Martin to request Malachi Bone, if he should hear of any Indians being about or near us, to let us know immediately." "Yes, ma'am, that is the whole story," continued Malachi. "It's the best plan when you're in the woods always to have your rifle loaded."

There was an affectionate postscript to Lucien. "What does this mean? I don't understand it," I said. "It means that at ten minutes past nine I shall be dead. I have been forewarned, that is all. My father appeared to me last night and announced my death." He spoke so simply of this visit, that if it was an illusion it was as terribly convincing as the truth.
He kicked over the machine, and the scheme won't work now; it could have been snapped through, but it can't be bulled through not with the bunch forewarned and on the lookout. Your political chances with Vard Waymouth, Harlan, don't amount to that!" He clicked his finger smartly above his head. "You may as well go back up-country and boss the Quedaws."
That is why I felt that I must talk to some one about this. Colonel, can't you get your daughter to tell us the whole truth what she was doing in Barnes' flat that night, and all the rest of it? We should be forewarned then!" The Colonel covered his face with his hand for a moment. The question obviously distressed him. "I can't, Herbert," he said, in a low tone.
Had not Camilla, however, been informed beforehand by Lothario that this love for Chloris was a pretence, and that he himself had told Anselmo of it in order to be able sometimes to give utterance to the praises of Camilla herself, no doubt she would have fallen into the despairing toils of jealousy; but being forewarned she received the startling news without uneasiness.
