This most important day of my life opened in the ordinary way; nothing foreshadowed the great event that was to decide my fate, that was to throw so much light upon the dark doubts of my poor heart. This brilliant sun suddenly burst upon me unheralded by any precursory ray. Some new guests were expected; a relative of Madame de Meilhan, and a friend of Edgar, whom they call Don Quixote.
The short winter's afternoon was nearly at an end as they stood contemplating the window prior to breaking in for Walter Fetherston felt justified in breaking the law in order to examine the interior of that place. In the dark branches of the trees the wind whistled mournfully, and the scudding clouds were precursory of rain. "Great Scott!" exclaimed Walter.
No, I'm not going to spoil him; if I were, I shouldn't be telling you about it. But may I be brutally frank? the David Kent who will come successfully out of this political prize-fight will not be the man you have idealized." There was a muttering of thunder in the air, and the cool precursory breeze of a shower was sweeping through the tree-tops.

Then, all at once, there came a leap in Pierre's thoughts.
Mozart, he's the precursory genius the first who endowed an orchestra with an individual voice; and those two will live mostly because they created Beethoven. Ah, Beethoven! power and strength amidst serene suffering, Michael Angelo at the tomb of the Medici!

Instead of allowing the precursory fire-ships to drift down the stream, at the regular intervals agreed upon, he despatched them all rapidly, and helter skelter, one after another, as fast as they could be set forth on their career.

Even the parliamentary opposition found themselves baffled in their prudent efforts.
