These last can count victories enough of their own to be able to sympathize heartily with the triumphs of their fellows without envying or grudging them one. What does it matter if Rose has slain her thousands and Lilian her tens of thousands? It is always "so much scored up to our side."
But this he did know: the Scarlet Pimpernel the man whom he had learned to know, to dread, and even in a grudging manner to admire was not like to leave one of his followers in the lurch. Marguerite's brother in the Temple would be the surest decoy for the elusive meddler who still, and in spite of all care and precaution, continued to baffle the army of spies set upon his track.
She wept furtively when Ku-îsh told her, in a few passionless sentences, that he had killed Kria and his son, and she bewailed herself aloud when, at their first halting-place, she received the severe chastisement, which Ku-îsh dealt out to her with no grudging hand, as her share in the general punishment.
He really did believe she was an Idiot; and he founded the belief, I can't say whether consciously or not, upon her being fond of him. "Well! and being there, how are you?" said Tackleton in his grudging way. "Oh! well; quite well! And as happy as even you can wish me to be. As happy as you would make the whole world, if you could!"

Nay, he made it almost seem as though the grudging support of Lestrange, or the critical half-patronizing approval of the young barrister from the West who came down to listen to him, and made a favor of teaching in his night-school, were as precious to him as was the wholehearted, the self-abandoning veneration, which the majority of those about him had begun to show toward the man in whom, as Charles Richards said, they had 'seen God.

And therefore my shadow was angry that in the revelation of so much futile trifling I did not take away the youth I gave as I have half a mind to do, even now, I warn you, dearie, for there is really no putting up with you. But I spared you because of my shadow's grudging reports as to your continence, which is a virtue that we of the Leshy peculiarly revere." Now Jurgen considered.
