Middleton had been prepared by numerous hints to meet Clara's black misreading of a lovers' quarrel, so that everything looked full of promise as far as Willoughby's exercise of policy went. But the strange pang traversing him now convicted him of a large adulteration of profitless temper with it. The loyalty of De Craye to a friend, where a woman walked in the drama, was notorious.
A man shoots a lion, or the lion kills an antelope; but they do so through misreading of God's Will, not through fulfilling it. For the lower ranks of creation misread that Will in their way as much as the higher in theirs. All ferocity must be misinterpretation of the divine law of harmony and mutual help. Internecine destruction probably has a meaning we can only guess at.
Older dictionaries give wrong and misleading definitions of this word; and a spurious twire, to sing, was inferred from a misreading 'twierethe' for 'twitereth' in Chaucer's Boethius, III m. 2. Modern authorities only allow twire, to peep, as in Shakespeare's 28th Sonnet, 'When sparkling stars twire not, thou gildst the even' 'The tiny frogs Go yerking'.
Captain Flower turned and regarded him with a look of offended dignity. "Good heavens! don't look like that," said the mate, misreading it. "You haven't chucked anybody overboard, have you?"
Is this a misreading? or do you really mean the words for blame? I have heard Christ, in the pulpits of our Church, held up for imitation on the ground that His sacrifice was voluntary. Does Dr. Hyde think otherwise? It is true he was allowed many indulgences. Am I to understand that you blame the father for profiting by these, or the officers for granting them?
A grosser misreading of the actual situation in Berlin can scarcely be conceived, as the unrestricted submarine campaign was only made possible by the resignation of Herr von Jagow, who was the chief opponent in Berlin of the submarine campaign, and the pillar on which the idea of American intervention rested.
It was not as though he felt either himself or his sister consciously in the wrong. He acquitted her of all fault, except as to the deadly one of misreading and misunderstanding. The fact argued not a perversion but a lack in her character. She was other than he had thought her. As for himself, he had schemed, worked, lived only for her.
Paul calls "mature manhood, the stature of full-grown men in Christ," our present rating might be that of a child of this age. It is no higher. Misreading is all that we are equal to, but it is something to be able to misread. It is a step on the way to reading correctly.
Here his anchor might possibly have remained fast had it not been that subtle broodings over his wrongs, a calm faith in the righteousness of his own attitude, and disgust with those whom he saw calmly expatiating upon the doctrines and dogmas of religion in his own town finally caused him to suspect a universal misreading of the Bible.
That while as recently as fifteen years ago we would have gone to war to prevent any move of Russia towards the Indian frontier, we are to-day actually encouraging her to build a railway there? The misreading of history in this matter is, unfortunately, not possible.
