He knew the mercilessness of the red men near at hand, and he was equally merciless to them. This proceeding, as may be supposed, caused consternation for a moment among the advancing Sioux.
His inflexible will greatly impressed his own time. The men who came in contact with him were afraid of him. His sternness and mercilessness in the enforcement of law, in the punishment of crime, and in the protection of what he thought to be his rights, were never relaxed. His laws were thought to be harsh, his money-getting oppressive, and his forest regulations cruel and unjust.
"And they wished to wash clean the murderer's hands, throwing upon me the charge of having killed myself because my love was despised. "They knew everything well, they calculated all with cold mercilessness. They waited for the hour to come, and whetted the knife before I took it in my hands. "And yet I can never hate her!
He knew real passion, real grief, and from that moment he knew and trusted the lady of the feathers. And by the strength of her bitterness, even by the broken curses that would have shocked so many of the elect of this world, he measured the width and the depth of her possibilities. She had sent to damnation what? The vile cruelty, the loathsome, unspeakable, dastardly mercilessness of the world.

And she gave a waggish laugh, in which Mrs. Tiralla this time joined. There was something merciless in the laughter of the two women. But Mr. Tiralla did not notice the mercilessness of it in his delight at seeing his wife in a better humour. He took her by the hand as if nothing had happened, and drew her into the room. And she allowed him to draw her in.
The landsman can know little of the wildness, savageness, and mercilessness of nature till he has been upon the sea. It is as if he had taken a leap off into the interstellar spaces. In voyaging to Mars or Jupiter, he might cross such a desert, might confront such awful purity and coldness. An astronomic solitariness and remoteness encompass the sea.
