Gretchen kissed the hands of her benefactress. "Whenever you wish to see the gardens," added the princess, "the gates will be open for you." As Gretchen went back to the Krumerweg her wooden shoes were golden slippers and her rough homespun, silk. Rich! Famous! She saw the opera ablaze with lights, she heard the roll of applause. She saw the horn of plenty pouring its largess from the fair sky.
If a nobler waits for thee, I will weep aside; It is well that thou should'st be, Of the nobler, bride. For if love builds up the home, Where the heart is free, Homeless yet the heart must roam, That has not found thee. One must suffer: I, for her Yield in her my part Take her, thou art worthier Still I be still, my heart! Gift ungotten! largess high Of a frustrate will!
During the revolution of 1797, the birds fared as badly as the aristocracy, and were left to take care of themselves; but when matters settled down again the feeding of the pigeons was resumed by the municipality, and takes place at two in the afternoon, tho the incessant largess of strangers can leave the birds but little appetite for their regular meal.
In a clean frock and Sunday shoes, my face freshly washed, and with the largess of one cent with which to buy candy at the Green Store I departed full of anticipation, fear and excitement. To the bridge it was a familiar way; beyond that half a mile, never before travelled by me.
What followed is too sad to be related in detail. Mr. Greyling scattered largess in the shape of lines among the crowd, and the next day the occupants of the two dormitories went about thirsting for each other's blood. On Saturday, just before morning school, the voting papers were collected, and directly after dinner the boys assembled to hear the result of the poll.
All the soldiers in general felt much resentment against Galba for not having given them their expected largess but these troops made a pretense of a more particular concern, that Virginius Rufus was cast off dishonorably, and that the Gauls who had fought with them were well rewarded, while those who had refused to take part with Vindex were punished; and Galba's thanks seemed all to be for him, to whose memory he had done honor after his death with public solemnities as though he had been made emperor by his means only.
What means he with this humble talk of King Henry and the parliament?" whispered Edward to the Lord Say, while the crowd scrambled for the largess, and Richard smilingly mingled amongst them, and conferred with the franklin. "Let him alone, I pray you, my liege; I guess his wise design. And now for our ships. What orders for the master?"
On the memorable day of their inauguration, they proceeded in solemn pomp from their palace to the forum amidst the applause of the senate and people; and their joyful father, the true consul of Rome, after pronouncing an oration in the praise of his royal benefactor, distributed a triumphal largess in the games of the circus.
His confreres appreciated the danger in which their power stood. They announced that it was decreed to give the queen a respite of seven days in which to yield. It would at least hold the bold troopers on the leash till they could be brought to see the affair in its true light by the way of largess in rupees. Umballa consented because he was at the bottom of the sack.
'To the Prefect of the Corn market how many wheat-ships have you ordered to be unladen? 'Two, your Excellency. 'Well, that will be largess enough for the time being. To the Defender of the Plebs the devil break his neck! 'He may be trusted, most noble; he is bitterly jealous of Cyril's influence. And moreover, he owes my insignificance much money. 'Good!
