Into the motives that filled him with a belief that he might inspire a Government, which had no policy, with one created by his own courage, confidence, and success, it would be impossible to enter, but it can be confidently asserted that, although they were drawn after him sed pede claudo to expend millions of treasure and thousands of lives, they were never inspired by his exhortations and example to form a definite policy as to the main point in the situation, viz., the defence of the Egyptian possessions.
raro antecedentem scelestum deseruit pede Poena claudo. I paused by the window. In this there was no indiscretion; for a cold drizzle washed the panes, and the warmth of the apartment dimmed their inner surface. "Pede Poena claudo," my finger traced the words on the damp glass. A sudden clamour of the street-door bell sent me skipping back to the fire-place with my heart in my mouth.
"'Ex pede Herculem; ex ungue leonem." Gerard listened respectfully, but when the holy friar proceeded by analogy to imply that the moral superiority of the heathen Romans was proportionally grand, he resisted stoutly. "Has then the world lost by Christ His coming?" said he; but blushed, for he felt himself reproaching his benefactor. "Saints forbid!" said the friar. "'Twere heresy to say so."
"I learned him that," said the cowboy, with pride and affection. "Say, Pede," he continued, in Pedro's ear, "ain't yu' the best little horse in the country? What? Here, now! Keep out of that, you dead-beat! There ain't no more bread." He pinched the pony's nose, one quarter of which was wedged into his pocket. "Quite a lady's little pet!" said Balaam, with the rasp in his voice.
But vengeance was coming, and before many years were over his head Freeman had occasion to remember the Hornfinn tag: Raro antecedentem scelestum Deseruit pede poena claudo. Froude himself took the matter very lightly.
God forgive me." And he hung down his head. He thought of the past, and its levities, and punishment coming after him pede claudo. It was with all his heart the contrite young man said "God forgive me." He would take what was to follow as the penalty of what had gone before. "Pallas te hoc vulnere, Pallas immolat, mon pauvre Kiou," said his French friend.
But, sure enough, the threatened punishment, by no means "pede claudo" followed in every case very accurately with the speed of lightning on the transgression; for Powers had cunningly contrived, preparing it all with his own hand, that a sharp electric shock should be communicated to each audacious hand that braved the prohibition.
At my convulsive shudder each horrid claw gripped a death-hold. In one swift motion I seized a corkscrew that lay nearby, pried loose with a quick jerk every single pede and threw the odious thing a dozen yards. A trail of red, inflamed spots rose where it had stood and remained painful and swollen for days.
