The worthy Mayor's indignation had overmastered his reason when he made this mistimed vaunt; for three soldiers, who had hitherto stood motionless like statues, made each a stride in advance, which placed them betwixt the municipal officers and the soldier, who was in the act of rising; then making at once the movement of resting arms according to the manual as then practised, their musket-buts rang on the church pavement, within an inch of the gouty toes of Master Mayor.
The true waste of time of the sluggard is not in the amount of natural sleep he enjoys, but in the time idly spent in bed when sleep has ceased, and in misplaced and mistimed sleep, which is not due to any genuine craving of the body for rest, but simply to mental sluggishness, to lack of interest and attention. Some men have claimed for sleep even more than this.
The elder woman's words had struck her own ear as in the tone, now mistimed, of their recent, but all too factitious understanding, arrived at in hours when, as there was nothing susceptible of proof, there was nothing definitely to disprove. The situation had changed by well, by whatever there was, by the outbreak of the definite; and this could keep Maggie at least firm.
Morley, in a tone that seemed intended to imply that he was not in the least affected by mistimed eloquence, "that the relation is that of a family." "I believe," she returned, "that it is closer than the mere human relation of the parts of any family.
Johnson's style was the best of all that exist. Her blank verse "Washing Day," descriptive of the discomforts attending a mistimed visit to a rustic friend, under the affliction of a family washing, is picturesquely circumstantiated.

"Unless it could be helpful, my lord," said Eveline, eagerly. "It is your nephew who is in danger my deliverer one of my deliverers, I would say."
I tore up the paper and granted my mistimed sentimentalities a permanent rest. Then, to business. I tested the electric signals from the gatling platform to the cave, and made sure that they were all right; I tested and retested those which commanded the fences these were signals whereby I could break and renew the electric current in each fence independently of the others at will.
I laughed until my sides ached; little thinking how the Horsley Hill would pay us off for our mistimed hilarity. Towards night, most of the steerage passengers returned, greatly dissatisfied with their first visit to the city, which they declared to be a filthy hole, that looked a great deal better from the ship's side than it did on shore. This, I have often been told, is literally the case.
Howard, and Edward in earnest conference, the latter appearing somewhat agitated. She would have retreated, imagining her presence mistimed, but Edward, the instant he perceived her, sprung forward, and seizing both her hands, exclaimed, in a voice of entreaty
Seldom does Heaven smile on such mistimed confidence. We shall be encountered, and that to the purpose." "And so much the better," replied Roland; "the field of battle was my cradle." "Beware it be not thy dying bed," said the Abbot. "But what avails it whispering to young wolves the dangers of the chase?
