She had shivered in Balder's embrace at the moment of the Egyptian's presence, but before having set eyes on him. Had the nearness of his discordant spirit his familiar face unseen made her conscious of an evil emanation from him, else unperceived? Manetho, to do him justice, assumed anything but a hostile attitude.
Whilst I sat at work the then representative of the family, my father's first cousin, came out upon the lawn; but I did not speak to him, nor did he take any notice of me. He was a fine, hale man of about eighty. The nearness of Hellifield to Hollins was brought home to me very strongly on that occasion.
There can be no other measure of them. And do you, like a skilful weigher, put into the balance the pleasures and the pains, and their nearness and distance, and weigh them, and then say which outweighs the other.
Both of them welcomed Arthur MacNair with that respectful warmth which acknowledged the nearness of his relationship to the approaching nuptials, and the Judge said: "Great credit to Jabel Blake as a representative citizen, in that his eyes have seen the glory of these fine boys, to whom he has been so fast a friend!"
The appearance of Japan as a strong ambitious state, resting on solid political and military foundations, but which scarcely has reached yet a condition of equilibrium in international standing, has fairly startled the world; and it is a striking illustration of the somewhat sudden nearness and unforeseen relations into which modern states are brought, that the Hawaiian Islands, so interesting from the international point of view to the countries of European civilization, are occupied largely by Japanese and Chinese.
The strain of receiving Dick's onslaught in silence, the shock of his collapse, and now the fire that Christian's nearness and dearness had lit in him, all broke his self-control. He held her to him. "I will never let you go!
Feeling her nearness, he shifted back, and the small hand fell limply. "Before ye go to Lem," pursued Lon, "I want to tell ye somethin'." Still Fledra did not speak. "Ye know that it'll save Flukey, if ye mind me, and that it don't make no difference if ye don't like Lem." "Wouldn't it have made any difference if my mother hadn't loved you, Pappy Lon?"
She was aware of his nearness, and closed her eyes for a moment as if she dreaded something. Then she said quickly, "Is tea nearly ready, Ed?" and, as he turned to the table, took up the book again. She felt that even to touch that book brought her "warmer." It fell open at a page.
"Here, you, sir! stop!" he roared. "Pull away, Bob!" whispered Dexter, for Bob had paused, half-paralysed by the nearness of the danger. But he obeyed the second command, and tugged at the oars. "D'yer hear!" roared the man, with a furious string of oaths. "Hold hard or I'll " He did not say what, but made a gesture as if striking with a great force.
But let him simply enjoy a while the grateful sense of your nearness and dearness. He'll be a better and stronger man for it, and then you can love him, you can esteem him, without restriction." She fairly frowned for helplessness. "It's a hard part for poor stupid me to play!" Her almost infantine innocence left me no choice but to be absolutely frank. "Did you ever play any part at all?"
