Mademoiselle Maria Edgeworth ayant fait un recueil de ces derniers, je prends la liberte de lui offrir un petit recueil de nos betises qui meritent le nom qu'elles portent aussi bien que les Irish bulls.
White had rolled up his sleeve, and was tying his handkerchief round his arm with his other hand and his teeth. "It is nothing," he said. "One of the devils had a knife. Must get my sleeve mended to-morrow." "Prends moy telle que je suy." When Major White came down to breakfast at his hotel the next morning, he found the large room deserted and the windows thrown open to the sun and the garden.
Molière said, "Je prends mon bien ou je le trouve." Johnson might have used the same words with a slightly different meaning. He excelled all men in recoining the gold of common sense in his own mind. All the world has said "humanum est errare": but the saying is newborn when Johnson clinches an argument with, "No, sir; a fallible being will fail somewhere."
"I suppose," she went on, "that you have once or twice humbled your pride so much as to accept a ship when it was offered you. You said that there are plenty who would give you a command now. John Craik is giving me a ship, that is all." The captain nodded. "Yes," he said, "that's it, that's it. You've got your first ship." Prends moy tel que je suy.
"Is it a legacy?" "It's pay," she cried, with pleasure dimpling about her lips. "I have been paid we have all been paid! It's so unusual it makes me feel quite generous. Let me see. I'll give you this, and this, and this" she counted into her open palm ten silver rupees "all those I will give you for your mission. Prends!" and she clinked them together and held them out to him.

They danced round in a ring singing "La Tour, prends garde!" and at a signal from Élodie, each ran to put a hand on a heart. Gamelin in his absent-minded clumsiness was too late to find one vacant, and had to pay a forfeit, the little knife he had bought for six sous at the fair of Saint-Germain and with which he had cut the loaf for his mother in her poverty.
Above and beneath the figure of a couchant dog gnawing the thigh bone of a man is graven the weird inscription, cut deeply in the stone, as if for all future generations to read and ponder over its meaning: "Je suis un chien qui ronge l'os, En le rongeant je prends mon repos. Un temps viendra qui n'est pas venu Que je mordrai qui m'aura mordu." 1736.
This is because the Duke's House temporarily changed its name thus. It does not refer to a second run of the play. or, the Jealous Bridegroom. Va mon enfant! prends ta fortune. Gallants, our Poets have of late so us'd ye, In Play and Prologue too so much abus'd ye, That should we beg your aids, I justly fear, Ye're so incens'd you'd hardly lend it here.
From the one, as from the other, God is absent; but in the first case a man follows his senses and the cry of his passion; in the second, he feels himself lost and bewildered, a creature forsaken by all the world. "En nous sont deux instincts qui bravent la raison, C'est l'effroi du bonheur et la soif du poison. Coeur solitaire, a toi prends garde!" April 3, 1873.
