I shall not pretend to affirm that the art goes as far as many imagine; but, it strikes me, that it is very presuming, to deny that there is some truth in these matters. I do not wish to appear credulous; though, at the same time, I hold it to be wrong to deny our testimony to facts that we are convinced are true.
Presuming that you hear from your father as much as you desire to know of the doings of Congress, I abstain from those subjects. Be assured of the great consideration and esteem with which I am your friend, Washington, March 3, 1804. Your letter of the 28th February, covering a newspaper, was received last evening.
"Have you no other words for me?" asked Foma, sternly, looking straight into the old man's face. And suddenly he noticed that his godfather shuddered, his legs trembled, his eyes began to blink repeatedly, and his hands clutched the door posts with an effort. Foma advanced toward him, presuming that the old man was feeling ill, but Yakov Tarasovich said in a dull and angry voice: "Stand aside.
"He met Lord Montague on the steps, and he had something spiteful to say about him. I had to tell him he was presuming a good deal on his acquaintance, and that I considered his manner insulting. He flung out of the house very high and mighty." "That was not a bit like him, mamma." "We didn't know him. That is all. Now we do, and I am thankful we do. He will never come here again."
The commons voted the person who brought it in guilty of a breach of privilege, and ordered him to be taken into custody.

The convocation presuming to justify their memorials, the commons voted that all matters relating to it should be razed out of the journals and books of convocation.
She looked at him wonderingly. "Is there nothing more I can do for you?" "Nothing! Nothing! Except no, nothing!" "You were about to ask something?" she observed with more sympathy. "If you would not think me presuming if you would not deem it an offense you remind me of one I loved and lost it is so long ago since I felt her kiss for the last time I am so near the grave "
Had she held her tongue, we are justified in presuming that she would have been returned on a pillion behind a servant. I have been greatly annoyed by that want of speech. I have repeatedly asked for room, and received no syllable in return. I have persisted in my request, and the clerk has nodded his head at me.
"You are presuming to speak of an act of insubordination committed by a military officer under civilian command." "What if we find an influential prince engaged in conspiracy?" "We look for proof." "Suppose we have good proof?" "We summon him to exonerate himself." "No; we mount and ride straight away into his territory, spot the treason, deport him, and rule in his place!"
Also there was a new peril looming up; the returned soldiers were coming back, and a lot of them were dissatisfied, presuming to complain of their treatment in the army, and of the lack of good jobs at home, and even of the peace treaty which the President was arranging in Paris. They had fought to make the world safe for democracy, and here, they said, it had been made safe for the profiteers.
She felt flattered at my not presuming to go to bed in her presence, and kept me company for an hour; and as I was not really amorous of her, I had no difficulty in playing the part of the timid lover. When she wished me good night she was delighted to find my kisses as affectionate but not so daring as those of the night before.
