Jaimihr, finding that his palace was intact, and that only the prisoner and three horses from his stable were missing, placed the whole guard under arrest stormed futilely, while his hurrying swarm flocked to him through the dinning streets and then, mad-angry and made reckless by his rage, rode with a hundred at his back to Howrah's palace, scattering the bee-swarm of inquisitive but so far peaceful citizens right and left.
The one thing intact apparently. He stooped over it. It was the baby's shoe white, it had been originally. He remembered it. Now it was stained with blood. That was all that was left a little baby's shoe, blood spotted. He pressed it to his heart and groaned aloud. A spasm of mortal anguish shook his frame. He lifted his clenched hand toward the sky overshadowing the roofless walls.
The same care is no longer taken to repair fallen bits of carved stone; pigeon-lamps that burn little oil replace the huge bronze lamps of other days, and no new additions are being made. The cathedral's apogee has been reached; from now on it will either remain intact for centuries, or else it will gradually crumble away.
The place was still capable of defence, and the trenches and rifle-pits were much as we left them on 13th February with General Buller. As for the graves, they were intact. The big earthwork we all helped to raise near the river was covered with water, except a corner of the western parapet. It was, however, partly thrown down, and the ditch and slopes were overgrown with grass and bushes.
Thanks to the indestructible character of pottery, the designs are often intact. Now the materials and methods employed by the vase- painters and the spaces at their disposal were very different from those of mural or easel paintings. Consequently inferences must not be hastily drawn from designs upon vases as to the composition and coloring of the great masterpieces.
It is remarkable that so many of the monuments still preserved comparatively intact should have been set up by the adoptive line of the so-called Antonines, from Trajan to Marcus Aurelius, and that the two monster columns, the one in Piazza Colonna and the one in Trajan's Forum, should be the work of the last and the first of those emperors, respectively.
The only additional luggage to this inventory I have given was my usual copious supply of Gold Flake cigarettes, of which, during my life in France, I must have consumed several army corps. It was a glorious day bright, sunny, and a faint fresh wind. Everything seemed bright and rosy. We got to the village with aching arms and souvenirs intact.
The voluminous evidence taken at his trial shows that he was very slack in the critical days at the close of August; it is also certain that Bismarck duped him under the pretence that, on certain conditions to be arranged with the Empress Eugénie, his army might be kept intact for the sake of re-establishing the Empire . The whole scheme was merely a device to gain time and keep Bazaine idle, and the German Chancellor succeeded here as at all points in his great game.
Now that I've been robbed and left penniless " "You're not penniless," interjected the lawyer. "Your money is intact." Collins's eyes expanded into an expression of incredulous wonder. "What are you talking about?" he demanded savagely. "Are you trying to fool me? My money's in Ward's bank " "And every creditor will be paid in full," interrupted the lawyer.
Among all the great toilers who had forged the new French music one man was especially dear to him: Cesar Franck, who died without seeing the victory for which he had paved the way, and yet, like old Schuetz, through the darkest years of French art, had preserved intact the treasure of his faith and the genius of his race.
