That there was some apparent foundation for this assumption cannot, as we saw, be gainsaid. Widely and unfavorably commented was the circumstance that in the heat of those discussions at the Conference a man of confidence of the Allies put this significant and impolitic question to one of the plenipotentiaries: "How would you take it if England were to receive a mandate for Lithuania?"
Not that in the building any rule or order of art is observed, but that the congregation of strange and fantastic trickery some whereof, it cannot be gainsaid, is of rare beauty is so vast that one is pleased with it as he is with the remembrance of the wonderful combinations of a dream.
Yesterday other girls had treated him with more real warmth and pleasure. But there was a certain authority about her not to be gainsaid. "Good night, then," rather gruffly. "He loves thee, ma mie. Hast thou no pity on him?" said Pani, looking earnestly at the lovely face. "I do not want to be loved;" and she gave a dissentient, shivering motion. "It displeases me." "But I am old.
At this Cheeseman and Drummond laughed and even the thoughtful Mr. Lawerence smiled. Though soothsayers in those days were not generally gainsaid, those four men at Drummond's house lived in advance of their age. "Go on your voyage and save the sum in jeopardy," was Drummond's advice. "If your going will make sure the sum, hesitate not a single moment," interposed Cheeseman.
In spite of her years in Paris severe, studious years, which shut out the social world and the temptations of Bohemian life Madelinette retained a strange simplicity of heart and mind, a desperate love for her old home which would not be gainsaid, a passionate loyalty to her past, which was an illusory attempt to arrest the inevitable changes that come with growth; and, with a sudden impulse, she had sealed herself to her past at the very outset of her great career by marriage with Louis Racine.
Thou art not very rosy for a farmer's maid, and Primrose hath been housed overmuch of late, our streets are so full of roysterers." "Faith hath some work " "Nay," interposed Madam Wetherill, "ten minutes' run will make her all the brisker for work. Run along, children; and have a little visit with each other." There was something in Madam Wetherill not easily gainsaid.
Those who have sat under the spell of Emerson's discourse would certainly never associate anything commonly called rhetoric with him; but I derived, from conversation with him, that his discontent with conventionalisms of thought first took this form of dissatisfaction with the conventional oratory. He thought there might be taught an art of putting things so that they could not be gainsaid.
If she goes away I've got to pay someone in her place, haven't I? Twenty guineas is the very lowest I'll take, and if you was anything like the gentleman you look you'd make it double." The haggling over such a matter and the coarse mercenary nature of the woman jarred upon the poet's sensitive soul. The plain fact that he hadn't got twenty guineas in the world could not be gainsaid.
Mr George Elgood went out fishing in a river two or three miles distant, accompanied sometimes by his brother, but for the most part by himself. He also sat at his bedroom window, writing by the hour together, and always and at all times he avoided his fellow-guests with a quiet persistence which could not be gainsaid.
Erelong shall God make manifest this people upon the earth, and through them shall exalt His name, diffuse His signs, uphold His words, and proclaim His verses, in spite of those that have repudiated His truth, gainsaid His sovereignty, and cavilled at His signs. 25 O Beauty of the All-Glorious!
