"Then anxious silence breaks in deafening cries, His whip and spur each desperate rider plies; The prescient coursers foaming, cheek by jowl, Now see the stand and guess th' approaching goal; True to their blood, and frantic still to win, Goaded, they fly, and spent, will not give in; Exactly matched, with fruitless efforts strain In rival speed, a single inch to gain.
The night was getting on to what I may call its deepest hour, the hour most favourable to evil purposes of men's hate, despair or greed to whatever can whisper into their ears the unlawful counsels of protest against things that are; the hour of ill-omened silence and chill and stagnation, the hour when the criminal plies his trade and the victim of sleeplessness reaches the lowest depth of dreadful discouragement; the hour before the first sight of dawn.
Would our persons treat This, without a blush of shame, We can ne'er repeat; "One, in front of all, then cries, 'I the army lead! Both his fists he wildly plies, Like a bear indeed! "Others wakes he in a trice With his whistlings rude; But none follow, though he twice Has those sounds renewed. "He'll return, he threats, ere long, And he'll come no doubt!
Now I know her; she is the vessel in which that notorious pirate, Merlani, plies his nefarious trade; and I would therefore strongly recommend you to clear for action at once." "Merlani!" ejaculated the skipper; "the saints defend us! It cannot be true; you are surely joking with us, senor!"
There is an echo of Koleleth in his contempt for the divinity of the body. It is unclean without, impure within. The vanity of vanity is proclaimed with piteous indignation.

"I have, sir; all along the road, so far as Torpoint Ferry." "And you learnt enough to justify you in arresting him?" "Ample, y'r worship. There wasn't a public-house along the road but thought his behaviour highly peculiar. He's a well-known character, an' the questions he asks you would be surprised. He plies between Falmouth and Plymouth, sir, once a week regular.
In international politics, as in public life, when self-interest steps in, Christianity goes to the wall. To-day we grind our axe with a difference. A more subtle process of dealing with our rivals obtains. To-day the pen is mightier than the sword, the stylograph is more deadly than the stiletto. The bravo still plies his trade. He no longer takes life, but character.
If you don't, then as sure as you're alive, you'll find yourself growing queer. The Ferry and Real Boats As a matter of fact the ferry isn't a boat at all.

They are situated at Gmunden to the left of the landing-place, from which a little steamer plies across the lake; and they are so built as to afford every facility for the unloading of boats that bring salt barrels from the mine by the highway of the Traun.
From Lake City a steamer usually plies to all interesting points, up and down the lake. Those wishing to halt in a locality of rare beauty and refined society, will choose FRONTENAC above. Half a dozen miles above the north end of the lake comes named after one of the great Dakota chiefs.
