"It's a Place," he said, with abysmal solemnity, "a Place I shouldn't have mentioned in your presence, Miss Tabor." "What has it to do with Mr. Louden?" The predestined Norbert conceived the present to be a heaven-sent opportunity to enlighten her concerning Joe's character, since the Pikes appeared to have been derelict in the performance of this kindness. "He goes there!" he proceeded heavily.
Would she not rather find in him a natural protector who would conduct her out of the mountains to Klausenburg or Banfi-Hunyad, from whence she would make her way to Pest and there seek a refuge in her aunt's house? She did not think twice about it, but accepted the idea as a heaven-sent inspiration which it was her duty to follow.
Let us keep as calm as we can and think out our questions very carefully lest the Heaven-sent Bearer of Great Tidings should depart without revealing all he knows." Chairs were hitched a little closer about Hillyard. The care which had brooded in that room was quite dispelled. "Have some more port, sir," said the youngest of that gathering, eagerly pushing across the bottle.
It seemed useless to pray further. There had been no heaven-sent sign to assure them that there was any likelihood of their prayer being answered, and nature seemed to utter a final No; when suddenly the angel of God broke into the commonplace of their life, like a meteorite into the unrippled water of a mountain-sheltered lake, bringing the assurance that there was no need for fear, and the announcement that their prayer was heard.
"Rather rough on Providence, Barker boy," said Stacy, "handing back the Heaven-sent gift so soon! Besides, what's to keep any prospector from coming along and making a strike of it? You know that's mining law if you haven't preempted the spot as a claim." But Barker was too staggered by this material statement to make any reply, and Demorest arose.
The slight doubt cast by Septimus on Zora's faith remained disturbingly at the back of his mind. Yet he clung passionately to his belief. If it were not Heaven-sent, then was he of men most miserable. Never had he welcomed the sight of Nunsmere more than the next Saturday afternoon when the trap turned off the highroad and the common came into view.
I cannot exactly say I feel "fear"; perhaps I cannot define fear; but a heaven-sent optimism buoys me up. In our journeys 'round, having previously experienced cold plunges in the dark, the fascination of "chance" lets us hope. "War!" What other lone factor could bring about at the same moment, such circumstances, the absolute cessation of every living element of our existence?
Indeed, she was the most beautiful creature that has ever existed." "Now may you grow thin and shrivel up like a fallen lemon; but it is false!" cried Wang Yu, starting up suddenly and unexpectedly. "At Chee Chou, at the shop of 'The Heaven-sent Sugar-cane, there lives a beautiful and virtuous girl who is more than all that.
Then from his heaven God sends forth his Son to be the sufficient answer to the universal appeal: and the heaven-sent messenger, from his rocky pulpit, as he sees Jesus coming to him, cries, "Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world." Dear soul, thou mayest venture on Him.
Has some heaven-sent disease enwrapt thy frame, or hast thou heard from our father some deadly threat concerning me and my sons? Would that I did not behold this home of my parents, or the city, but dwelt at the ends of the earth, where not even the name of Colchians is known!" Thus she spake, and her sister's cheeks flushed; and though she was eager to reply, long did maiden shame restrain her.
