Shall you be passing by at any time, Martin?" "Yes no I cannot tell exactly," I stammered. "If you are passing, come in for a few minutes," she answered; "I have a thousand things to speak to you about." "Shall you come in to lunch?" I asked. "No, I shall take something with me," she replied; "it hinders so; coming back here." I was not overworked that morning. The convulsions of Mrs.
Then raising his eyes to the mountain, "This," said he, "is the fatal obstacle that hinders at once the enjoyment of pleasure and the exercise of virtue. How long is it that my hopes and wishes have flown beyond this boundary of my life, which yet I never have attempted to surmount?"
There are, indeed, those who assert that words in one language are never exactly synonymous, or in all respects commensurate, with words in another; that, when they are compared with one another, there is always something more, or something less, or something different, in one as compared with the other, which hinders this complete equivalence.
She is either commissioned to treat me ill by her envy, or by an higher authority, to which I must submit. As to revoking the estate, what hinders, if I pleased?

Indeed, it spoke audibly of this, being accompanied by a fierce growl, and succeeded by a series of hoarse barkings, just like those of a bull-dog or angry mastiff, whose mouth, confined in a muzzle, hinders him from giving full vent to his anger.
Why should he in this? A sense of delicacy hinders the naturalist from riding over to the Tovas town, and asking explanation why the chief delays keeping his word. In all such matters, the American Indian, savage though styled, is sensitive as the most refined son of civilisation; and, knowing this, Ludwig Halberger waits for Naraguana to come to him.

Now I tried to think matters out as well as this disturbance would allow, for nothing hinders thought so much as snores. But what was the use of thinking?
