We are usually safe, at any rate in the towns, if we multiply the known number of tenements by ten in order to arrive at the number of souls inhabiting the borough. The second difficulty is that of establishing the meaning of the word "haga." In some cases it may represent one single large establishment.
In 1612 Cornelis Haga, who had been in Sweden, was sent to Constantinople to treat with the Turks about commercial privileges in the Levant and for the suppression of piracy, and he remained in the East in charge of the republic's interests for many years. More difficult was the maintenance of friendly relations with England.
He counselled him not to go to the ball; or, if he persisted, he advised him to mistrust the crowd that might press around him, for that was the signal for the blow to be aimed at him. That the king might not doubt the warning thus given, he recalled to his memory his dress, gesture, his sleep in his apartment of Haga in the evening that he had believed himself quite alone.
The Dutch envoy declaring that he would sooner throw himself into the Bosphorus than remain to be treated with less consideration than that accorded to the ministers of all great powers, the remonstrances of envious colleagues were hushed, and Haga was received with all due honours.
The Somal divide their year into four seasons: Haga is the hot season after the monsoon, and corresponding with our autumn: the country suffers from the Fora, a violent dusty Simum, which is allayed by a fall of rain called Karan. Dair, the beginning of the cold season, opens the sea to shipping.
There was a dead silence. At length a man arose Ordgar, son of Haga. "I will take my life in my hand to deliver my people from the tyranny of this Norman wolf." "God bless thee, my son," said his aged sire; "thou art the light of mine eyes, but I can risk thee in thy country's cause and the cause of the House of Aescendune."
DOÑA MATILDE. Alguien ha de lavar lo que emporquemos, sin embargo. DON EDUARDO. Preciso ... pero lo harás tú. DOÑA MATILDE. ¡Yo! DON EDUARDO. ¿Quién quieres que lo haga en tanto que no tengamos con qué pagar a otra mujer? DOÑA MATILDE. ¡Y se me llenarán de grietas!
It is always a pitiful spectacle to see two hostile self-esteems crossing swords. He protests, therefore, beforehand against every interpretation of his ideas, every personal application of his words, saying with the Spanish fablist: Quien haga aplicaciones Con su pan se lo coma.
"But it is our object to foil his good intentions towards us: sooner or later we must fight him, and why not now? Haga, my father, thou art the oldest and wisest here present; speak, and we will be guided by thy counsel." "Let the Norman come," said the sage solemnly; "he shall perish in his pride." "In what manner shall he die?"
