"His imagination is Shakespearian in its mightiness.
A mighty one, said I? by Allah, he's awful in his mightiness!
Yards, furlongs, miles arose; and on went old John in the pleasantest manner possible, trimming off an exuberance in this place, shearing away some liberty of speech or action in that, and conducting himself in his small way with as much high mightiness and majesty, as the most glorious tyrant that ever had his statue reared in the public ways, of ancient or of modern times.
Back in the gloom of the cavern I heard the clink of a little bell, and then this exclamation: "Hello Central! Is this you, Camelot? Behold, thou mayst glad thy heart an thou hast faith to believe the wonderful when that it cometh in unexpected guise and maketh itself manifest in impossible places here standeth in the flesh his mightiness The Boss, and with thine own ears shall ye hear him speak!"
This was sheer vanity on the Prince's part. He could not bear to have his great Bleriots dark, while our humbler acetylene illumined the way for His Mightiness. Suddenly we ran out of the bewildering lights and shadows, woven across our way by the moon, into the lights of a town; and two douaniers appeared in the road, holding up their hands for us to stop.

O Day! and is your mightiness A sycophant to smug success? Will the sweet sky and ocean broad Be fine accomplices to fraud? O Sun! I curse thy cruel ray! Back, back to chaos, harlot Day!
If he had shown any "high and mightiness," as they called it, since the change in his estate, it would have let him go without protest.
Eustacia was silent, and she turned from him, till she said, in a voice of suspended mightiness, "I am for a walk, and this is my way." "Well, I can do worse than follow you." "You know you can't do otherwise, for all your moods and changes!" she answered defiantly. "Say what you will; try as you may; keep away from me all that you can you will never forget me. You will love me all your life long.
I also wanted a text for an article. But I wanted my dinner still more. Campion condemned the idea of dinner. "You can have a cold supper," he roared, "like the rest of us." I yielded. Campion dragged me helpless to a tram at the top of Vauxhall Bridge Road. "It will do Your Mightiness good to mingle with the proletariat," he grinned.
