She wanted it with all the splendid eagerness of a soul that wishes to grow and fulfill itself. That rightful privilege you denied her and she has not complained. Why shouldn't she want life's fullness instead of life's meagerness and its breadth instead of its bigotries? Is there greater nobility in the dull existence of a barnacle that hangs to one spot than in the flight of a bird?
'He poured into my heart the sweetness of Christ! said his most eminent convert, and thousands could have said the same. Feeling the magnitude of his task and the meagerness of his powers, he called upon his converts to assist him, and sent them out, two by two, to tell of the ineffable grace of the Cross. In humanness and common sense he founded his famous Order.
The ethnological position may be briefly summed up; and in order to avoid any but the most indispensable detail the schedule of types and variants and the scheme of reversion and survival in which they are concerned are here presented with a diagrammatic meagerness and simplicity which would not be admissible for any other purpose.
He and Betty Dalrymple breakfasted together on an old log; it wasn't much of a meal a few crackers and crumbs that were left but neither appeared to mind the meagerness of the fare. Then, prodigal-handed for a castaway who knew not where her next meal might come from, she tossed a bit or two to the birds, and was rewarded by a song.
Miss Maggie seemed interested, and asked many questions. The eager- eyed young woman became even more eager-eyed, and told Miss Maggie all about the long hours, the nerve-wearing labor, the low wages wages upon which it was impossible for any girl to live decently wages whose meagerness sent many a girl to her ruin. Miss Maggie listened attentively, and said, "Yes, yes, I see," several times.
We knew, for instance, that our science teacher had accepted this theory, but we had a strong suspicion that the teacher of Butler's "Analogy" had not. We chafed at the meagerness of the college library in this direction, and I used to bring back in my handbag books belonging to an advanced brother-in-law who had studied medicine in Germany and who therefore was quite emancipated.
The vast majority of Anglo-Saxons in whatever clime or capital, suppress their "unrefined" appetites or vagrant fancies which are vibrations from the wheel; sometimes hard jerks when the presiding genius is more than commonly out of patience and rise to serene heights or grow morbid and irritable according to the strength or the meagerness of their equipment; or the nature of their resources.
Lincoln did not like the pompous little fellow whose rotund and diminutive figure was in glaring contrast to his own a young man, but colossal, while his stature was augmented by his meagerness. "Gentlemen," bawled Larkins, "I have the best horse in the county! I ran him three miles in two-forty each and he never fetched a long breath!"
Take him to the east side among the political offenders," said the master-jailer to an assistant or turnkey. "But it's full," responded the turnkey. "Shove him in some place." They searched me, and the turnkey lighted another candle. The meagerness of my output was beneath remark. When he had led me up a flight of stone steps he paused and inquired, "Have you any money?" "No."
Her skin, which was very white, was further albificated by a coat of rice powder. She was startlingly slight. Blake, as he watched her, could see the oval shadows under her collar bones and the almost girlish meagerness of breast half-covered by the azure silk bodice. She looked up slowly as Blake stepped into the room.
