The custom of the world does not permit such acts to either of us as you contemplate.
Peterborough at the same time despatched praises of my sobriety of behaviour and diligent studiousness, confessing that I began to outstrip him in some of the higher branches. The squire's brief reply breathed satisfaction, but too evidently on the point where he had been led to misconceive the state of affairs.
He took the hand and carried it to his lips, but she forcibly withdrew it, and, disengaging her arm, said emphatically "Never, Hugh. Never." "How can you trifle with me, Irene? If you could realize how impatient I am for the happy day when I shall call you my wife, you would be serious, and fix an early period for our marriage."

To imagine that Cardinal Manning regarded station, or dignity, or even power, as treasures to be valued in themselves would be ridiculously to misconceive the man.

An' you'll hardly be in time to steer your girl away from my boy." "Oh," she said, "you misconceive me entirely, Mr. Saterlee.
"By perusing the works of Dryden, he discovered the most perfect fabrick of English verse, and habituated himself to that only which he found the best. ... New sentiments and new images others may produce; but to attempt any further improvement of versification will be dangerous. To adopt Johnson's method is, in truth, to misconceive the whole nature of poetry and of poetic imagination.
Akin to the inadvertence which, as I presume to think, has led Professor Huxley thus to misconceive secondary qualities, is an inattention to the differences between our ideas, or mental pictures, and the originals whereof those pictures are copies, which seems to me seriously to vitiate his reasoning with regard to primary qualities.
