The venality of the officials gives the heartless parvenu free scope for his arbitrary misdeeds, and without let or hindrance he persecutes all who are suspected of modernizing tendencies.

Why did you not tell me sooner? We'll marry you, and be at your wedding. Listen, Field-marshal," said he. "We are old friends, his lordship and I. Lets us go to supper.
"You seem a clever fellow," said Don Quixote. "And an unfortunate one," replied Gines, "for misfortune always persecutes good wit." "It persecutes rogues," said the commissary.
My uncle and I quitted France, the France that persecutes and harasses us, that desires the destruction of our family and the forcible union of our territory with her own.
