They dined together in the oak-panelled dining-room where Piers had so often sat with his grandfather. The table seemed to stretch away inimitably into shadows, and Avery felt like a Lilliputian. From the wall directly facing her the last Lady Evesham smiled upon her her baffling, mirthless smile that seemed to cover naught but heartache.
"Your quotation from Virgil recalled a passage in Job 'Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into morning. Oh! how inimitably sublime is inspired language and 'turneth the shadow of death into morning. And how comforting the promise conveyed," said Mary, earnestly. "Miss Irving, don't you admire Cassiopeia very much?" said Dr.
"But you don't know; you can't conceive the utter, childish absurdity of setting that child to recite the multiplication table with village infants of his own age. Oh! believe me, if you could only guess, you would laugh with me. It's so funny, so inimitably funny." "I fail to see, Mr. Challis," said Crashaw, "that there is anything in any way absurd or or unusual in the proposition."
And overhead the immovable stars, like the unpitying gods, hung above the city and were reflected in the water, and wounded the soul of the lonely man with the terrible sense of power inimitably removed, of passionless strength which served to humanity but as a measure of its own weakness and triviality.
She had at last to steady herself, and she scarce knew afterward at what rate or in what way she had still inimitably come down her own eyes fixed all the while on the very figure of her achievement. She had sacrificed her mother on the altar proclaimed her as false and cruel: and if that didn't "fix" Mr. Pitman, as he would have said well, it was all she could do.
The company were now fast departing; carriages came to the door in rapid succession. Lady Hunter went through with admirable grace and variety the sentimental ceremony of taking leave; and when her splendid barouche was at the door, and when she was to bid adieu to her own family, still she acted her part inimitably.
It was strange how Archie missed the look of race; except the dogs, with their refined foxy faces and inimitably curling tails, there was no one present with the least claim to gentility.
And the skulls turned from side to side as before.... And with their former noise, peeping like little red rags out of the grinning teeth, rapid tongues lisped how marvellously, how inimitably the immortal ... yes, immortal ... singer had rendered that last trill! April 1878. WORKMAN. Why do you come crawling up to us? What do ye want? You're none of us.... Get along!
This "Inner Life," which she had written for the last number of the magazine, was an allegory, in which she boldly attempted to disprove the truth of the fact Tennyson has so inimitably embodied in "The Palace of Art," namely, that love of beauty and intellectual culture cannot satisfy the God-given aspirations of the soul.
He learned that there was much more of every sort of thing in this world than he had had any idea of that there was much, very much, to be thankful for that there were many, very many, things to be grieved for, and many also to be glad about that the fields of knowledge were inimitably large, and that his own individual acquirements were preposterously, humblingly small! He thought much, too.
