The poor fellow had given the faithful Jemima this mutable love-gift three days before it came into my possession, on which occasion they had broken a crooked sixpence together. I moralised upon this, and came to the conclusion, that, whatever a tailor might be, a sailor is no match for a tailor's daughter, born and bred up at Chatham.
"Nay, nay, nay, my little angels, keep yourselves a little quiet," said the mother. "Wait a moment, dear Petrea; patience is a virtue. Eva dear, don't behave in that way; you don't see me do so." Thus gently moralised the mother; whilst, with the help of her eldest daughter, the little prudent Louise, she cared for the other children.
He should have kept upon this circuit; he'd have been very useful to me. But he don't know what's good for him. He is an impetuous youth. Young men are rash, very rash. Mr Crummles being in a moralising mood, might possibly have moralised for some minutes longer if he had not mechanically put his hand towards his waistcoat pocket, where he was accustomed to keep his snuff.
It is not merely 'time, it is 'the time'; not merely the empty succession of beats of the pendulum, but these moralised, as it were, heightened, and having significance, because each is apprehended as having a special mission, and affording an opportunity for a special work. Now, there are two aspects of that general thought, on each of which I would touch.
Then Joe walked up and down, and in and out for an hour; studied the half-consumed pictures that still hung on the walls of one of the lower rooms, which had not been completely destroyed; moralised on the dire confusion and ruin that could be accomplished in so short a space of time; reflected on the probable condition of the unfortunates who had been burnt out; on the mutability of human affairs in general, and wondered what his "owld mother" would think of him, if she saw him in his forlorn situation.
Gothamite stories appear to have been familiar throughout Europe during the later Middle Ages, if we may judge from a chapter of the Gesta Romanorum in which the monkish compiler has curiously "moralised" the actions of three noodles: We read in the "Lives of the Fathers" that an angel showed to a certain holy man three men labouring under a triple fatuity.
Mme. de Cliche can't bear Mme. de Villepreux." "Well, he seems a kind of MEAN man," George Flack moralised. "Oh his mother was very bad. That was one thing they had against the marriage." "Who had? against what marriage?" "When Maggie Probert became engaged." "Is that what they call her Maggie?" "Her brother does; but every one else calls her Margot. Old Mme. de Cliche had a horrid reputation.
When he was rejected for Bristol, she moralised on the catastrophe by the quaint reflection, that Providence has wisely contrived to render all its dispensations equal, by making those talents which set one man so much above another, of no esteem in the opinion of those who are without them.
"He professes to remember, and does remember, everything which happened, up to the final crash in the studio. Yet he has made no mention to me of of our child." "He is shy about it," suggested Dick. "You speak first." "I cannot," she replied. "It is for Ronald to do that." "Ah, you dear women!" moralised the young bachelor. "You remind me of Nebuchadnezzar no, I mean Naaman.
