This type of person prates much about the dangers of race-suicide, meaning thereby the increasing tendency to childlessness and not as should be taken into account the death rate among children who are born of diseased and unfit parents and brought into existence without the necessary conditions of sanitation, food and care.
Meanwhile, my neighbor Cervius prates away old stories relative to the subject. What need of many words? Will you not prefer men and the city to the savage woods? Take my advice, and go along with me: since mortal lives are allotted to all terrestrial animals, nor is there any escape from death, either for the great or the small.
It is only the woman insecure of her social position who prates about it. It is only the nation uncertain of herself that bolsters a fact with an argument. Canada is too busy with facts for any flamboyant arguments. It is an even wager that if you ask the average well-informed business man in Canada how many miles of railways the Dominion has, he will answer on the dot "almost thirty thousand."
'There speaks a wench brought up and taught by Protestants, Throckmorton gibed pleasantly at her; 'or ye have caught the trick of Kat Howard, who, though she be a Papist as good as I, yet prates virtue like a Lutheran. 'Ye lie! Margot said; 'my mistress getteth her virtue from good letters. Throckmorton smiled at her again.
But all at once, as if recalled from an abstraction, Susanna gave a little laugh, what seemed a slightly annoyed, half-apologetic little laugh, and lifted her hands in a gesture of deprecation, of self-reprehension. "I beg your pardon," she said. "I can't think how I have allowed myself to become so tiresome. One prates of one's parish pump." "Tiresome?" cried out Anthony, in spontaneous protest.
Prize-fighting is terrible. This is the dictum of the man who walks in his sleep. He prates about it, and writes to the papers about it, and worries the legislators about it. There is nothing of the brute about him. He is a sublimated soul that treads the heights and breathes refined ether in self-comparison with the prize-fighter.
Sat prates biberunt, he said. A sick man that gets talking about himself, a woman that gets talking about her baby, and an author that begins reading out of his own book, never know when to stop. You'll think of some of these things you've been getting half asleep over by and by. I don't want you to believe anything I say; I only want you to try to see what makes me believe it.
'What fool or madman! he cried, fixing his eyes in furious scorn and indignation on the stranger's face, 'prates to me about the legions of Ravenna and the dangers of an assault! Think you, renegade, that your city could have resisted me had I chosen to storm it on the first day when I encamped before its walls?
E'en to the man whom thou chancest to meet in life's narrow pathway, If he should ask it of thee, hold forth a succoring hand. But for rain and for dew, for the general welfare of mortals, Leave thou Heaven to care, friend, as before, so e'en now. I have a heartfelt aversion for crime, a twofold aversion, Since 'tis the reason why man prates about virtue so much. "What! thou hatest, then, virtue?"
"My lord, the old hag who sold you the phial, as she says, yet lives, and I fear prates." "She shall do so no longer. Get a party of half a dozen of your tenderest lambs ready for secret service. We will start two hours before dawn, when all the world is fast asleep. See that you are all ready and call me." All lonely stood the hut in the tangled brake where dwelt a sinful but repentant woman.
