Can they send a corpse there? If this last attempt fail, shall I not have the right to blow my brains out? Put the iron in the fire, my boy quick! time presses and strike while the iron's hot!" "But your son goes with you!" exclaimed Frances, with a cry of maternal despair. Then rising, she threw herself at the feet of Dagobert, and said: "If you are arrested, he will be arrested also."
After finding a pleasant lodging near the Baletti's, I took a coach and went to the "Hotel de Bourbon" with the intention of calling on M. de Bernis, who was then chief secretary for foreign affairs. I had good reasons for relying on his assistance. He was out; he had gone to Versailles. At Paris one must go sharply to work, and, as it is vulgarly but forcibly said, "strike while the iron's hot."

"If your designs be honourable, and no doubt they are, now's your time; strike while the iron's hot. By the death of the doctor, the kirk's vacant, the town-council have the patronage; and, if ye marry Miss Lizy, my interest and influence shall not be slack in helping you into the poopit."
For it lay in a thick wood and grasped by a terrible dragon's jaws, and he in length and thickness was larger than their ship of fifty oars, which the iron's blows had welded. Long were it for me to go by the beaten track, for the time is nigh out, and I know a certain short path, and many others look to me for skill.

He drove away all the Persian swordsmiths, and from his day no 'Damascus blade' has been made at Damascus. I have found these French colonies perfectly casual and futile. The men take months before making up their minds to do anything.
And so saying, Jacquelina arose to leave the room. "Come back here you little vixen, you!" Sans Souci returned. "It's well to 'strike while the iron's hot, and to bind you while you're willing to be bound, for you are an uncertain little villain.
