It will be no more than a pretence to shelter you until we are away." "How can I trust your word in that?" "How?" He paused, baffled; but only for a moment. "You have the dagger," he answered pregnantly. She stood considering, her eyes upon the weapon's lividly gleaming blade. "And this marriage?" she asked. "How is it to take place?"
The answer is that they suspected the source of the new reforms too virulently to judge them calmly. For half a century, as Condorcet says pregnantly, they had been undergoing the evils of anarchy, while they supposed that they were feeling those of despotism. The error was grave, but it was natural, and one effect of it was to make every measure that proceeded from the court odious.
This was the signal for the charge; for all the legs of the ram to move. An hour or so before the attack the telegraph instruments in the Galland house had become pregnantly silent. There were no more orders to give; no more reports to come from the troops in position until the assault was made.
Peter, of course, is too tolerant to despise his cousins across the Pond, but he pregnantly reminded me that Lady Allie had asked him what sort of town Saskatchewan was and he had retorted by inquiring if she was fond of Yonkers, whereupon she'd looked puzzled and acknowledged that she'd never eaten one.
Wix so dominated the situation that she had something sharp for every one. "There you have it, you see!" she pregnantly remarked to her pupil. "WILL you give him up?" Maisie persisted to Mrs. Beale. "To YOU, you abominable little horror?" that lady indignantly enquired, "and to this raving old demon who has filled your dreadful little mind with her wickedness?

Washed ashore in last night's gale, eh?" "Not so." Levasseur contained himself with difficulty before that irony. "They were in the Dutch brig." "I don't remember that you mentioned them before." "I did not.
I am excited already." Mr. Wentworth was silent a while; they all were silent, as if in recognition of something audacious and portentous. "I think they had better go to the other house," said Charlotte, quietly. "I shall keep them in the other house," Mr. Wentworth subjoined, more pregnantly. Gertrude turned away; then she looked across at Robert Acton.
"All Europe is a graveyard, of its past!" she answered lightly. "That was what I thought you Americans always came to see!" He laughed a little, in turn, and she both liked him better for it and found it easier to go on. She felt, from his silences, that no great span of his life had been spent in talking with women. And she was glad of it. "I like the Riggi," she added pregnantly.

'T is a case of transformation of function, an old institution adapted to new uses, and valuable partly as giving colour to life, partly for preventing the evils which Gibbon so pregnantly showed to be inseparable from any system of primacy not based on an immutable heredity. The trouble is when the flag wishes to order the march.
