Thank God that all is not profligacy and corruption in the history of that devoted people and that the name of Irishman does not always carry with it the idea of the oppressor or the oppressed the plunderer or the plundered the tyrant or the slave! Great men hallow a whole people, and lift up all who live in their time.

He lived in the new-built suburb, erected on the site of the gardens of the Duke of Lerma, first minister and favorite of Philip III. It was a quarter much affected by artists and men of letters, and equally so by ecclesiastics. The names of the streets indicate the traditions of piety and art that still hallow the neighborhood. Jesus Street leads you into the street of Lope de Vega.

He was a giant in strength: an honester man never lived; perhaps a little decided in his manner, but of great ability and perseverance. As copartners we were not very regular book-keepers, and our accounts got confused. At the wind-up at Hallow Fair, as we had the accounts of the Falkirk Trysts likewise to settle, we worked at them for days, and the longer we worked the more confused they became.

Since I had been told kindly, wisely told that I had no right to hazard her peace of mind unless I were privileged to woo and to win her, I promised myself that I would shun her presence until I had bared my heart to you, as I am doing now, and received that privilege from yourself; for even had I never made the promise that binds my honour, your consent and blessing must hallow my choice.

A tremendous uproar, an incessant crashing that had not struck him at first, careered through the air; it was like the din of a tempest beating against a cliff, the rumbling of an untiring assault, dashing forward from endless space. 'Hallow, what's that? he muttered. 'That, said Bongrand, as he walked away, 'that's the crowd upstairs in the galleries.

All that is brightest and best in the man has soared up like long-dormant instincts of Heaven, to greet and to hallow what to him seems life's fairest dream of the heavenly! Take the wings from the image of Love, and the god disappears from the form! Thus, if at moments jealous doubt made my torture, so the moment's relief from it sufficed for my rapture.

"Could not run for laughing; caught him in a minute; gave him something to laugh for; drubbed him soundly." "O poor fellow!" cried Morrice with a loud hallow, "I am really sorry for him. But pray, Sir, what became of your best coat and waistcoat while you gave him this drubbing? did you leave them in the dirt?" "No, Mr Nincompoop," answered Briggs angrily, "I put them on a stall."

Beware, O people, that ye deal not treacherously with any one. Be ye the trustees of God amongst His creatures, and the emblems of His generosity amidst His people.... Illumine and hallow your hearts; let them not be profaned by the thorns of hate or the thistles of malice. Ye dwell in one world, and have been created through the operation of one Will.

But Joe said he would not lose his temper on account of the night it was and asked his wife to open some more stout.
