Either she is not her real self then, or else she is suddenly transported to a womanhood that is instinctive, elemental, universal for the future. She feels what she does not know.

There were, no doubt, many obscure passages in the Scripture, but men's minds were finite; a catholic acceptance was imperative, and the evils of the present day a sufficiently sweeping statement were wholly due to deplorable lapses from such acceptance. The Apostolic teaching must be preserved, since it transcended all modern wanderings after truth.

"What do you wish to do?" The doctor was quite serious and as usual a little imperative in his questions, and Daisy knew him to be trusted. "I wanted to take this little rose bush and set it out in the garden up there." "There?? do you mean the garden of that cottage?" said the doctor pointing with his whip. "Yes, sir." "Are you bound thither now?" "No, sir I am going home." "Rose bush and all?

Therefore, by holding down the budgetary cost of existing programs to keep within the limitations I have set, it is both possible and imperative to adopt other new measures that we cannot afford to postpone.

If I had any fear at all it was on this point that she might feel it imperative to decide the matter promptly, while I was prepared to wait, years if necessary, rather than to take from those lips which I so eagerly longed to press to mine own in love's first caress, the relentless, cruel no.

"Why?" he asked again, with a little sort of imperative curiosity which was somehow very pleasant to me. "I do not think it is right for me to go," I said. Then, seeing grave astonishment and great mystification in his face, I added, "I am a Christian, Mr. Thorold." "A Christian!" he cried, with flashes of light and shadow crossing his brow. "Is that it?" "That is it," I assented.

The voice was not so imperative now, but it begged and implored him to hasten. "I'm coming, I'm coming!" Jan whispered back. He had the sensation of one in a nightmare who tries to run but who cannot take a step. Lars had at last managed to get a horse into the shafts. Then the womenfolk came and told him to be sure to take along straw and blankets.

We cannot prove that this practical rule is an imperative, i.e., that the will of every rational being is necessarily bound to it as a condition, by a mere analysis of the conceptions which occur in it, since it is a synthetical proposition; we must advance beyond the cognition of the objects to a critical examination of the subject, that is of the pure practical reason, for this synthetic proposition which commands apodictically must be capable of being cognised wholly a priori.
