But at a venture: she had heard he was going to be married, and came down here to make trouble when he should arrive with his bride; but he came back alone, disgusted with life, and found her here. It was easier to marry her than pay her, we'll say. She has been something over-generous, perhaps. She would rather have had him, any time, than her money, and now was the time.
To me you have always been over-generous. Try now and be just." Still he stood silent, with his cold, hard frown; it was plain that, if he was to come back to me, it would be from the other world if there be one! What he was going to answer I know not. The door opened, and Robert appeared, pale, trembling, his eyes starting in his head. "I verily believe that poor Mr.
He is fair and false, if I am not out in my judgment, with a smooth word and a tricky dirk, like the Campbells. God grant ye be not over-generous, and trustful unto blindness." "Lochiel, I have trusted, as ye know, many men who have betrayed our cause; I have distrusted one who was faithful at a cost to me.
You know that I have had through life the character of a weak, easy, somewhat over-generous man. Such men are not revengeful. Hold! You lay your hand on my arm, I know the magic of that light touch, Mother; but its power over me is gone. Countess of Lansmere, hear me! Now, our relative positions are somewhat altered.
Miller shrieked and swung back her hand, cuffing the gawky one straight into the thickest of the crowd. Other women screamed. Lance reached a long arm and plucked the youth out by the slack of his coat, shook him and propelled him into the darkness, where he collided violently with Sam Pretty Cow. Some one had been over-generous with Sam Pretty Cow. A drunken Indian is never quite safe.
It is most inconsistent: yet what can I do?” Polemo had said what he considered enough. He was one of those who sold his words. He had already been over-generous, and was disposed to give away no more. After a time, Callista said, “Polemo, do you believe in one God?” “Certainly,” he answered; “I believe in one eternal, self-existing something.” “Well,” she said, “I feel that God within my heart.
"You are an ass," I at last managed to say with cold distinctness. "You are an ass, a coward, a cur, a pitiful thing so low that spittle would be wasted on your face. In such matter Jake Oppenheimer is over-generous with you. As for me, without shame I tell you the only reason I do not spit upon you is that I cannot demean myself nor so degrade my spittle."
Stranger yet that he, whom only the other day she had thought of as so narrow, so religiously hard, should prove himself absurdly over-generous in his estimate of her.... Or no, not that exactly. But, at least, it would have been absurd, if it had not been so sweet.... The revolting corner of her mind seemed now to have laid down arms.
We obey its impulses because of our own personal distress at witnessing the distress of others; and where unrestrained by higher principle, these impulses often compel us to be unjust today because we were over-generous yesterday.
And, beyond even this ... some devilish whim had betrayed him to-night into offering his time for the service and uses of the landlady's daughter in the puling matter of algebra. No ... no! He would not put that in. The girl could not be so selfish as to take advantage of his over-generous impulse.
