But I was going to tell you how the voyageurs build a fire when they have to camp out on a winter's night, and there's twelve feet of snow between them and the solid ground. 'Sheer impossibility, said Arthur presumptuously; 'the fire would work a hole down. 'You shall hear. First, they cut down a lot of trees green timber about twenty feet or more in length.
But yet all and every one of those that are such are not in danger of this; but those among these that take pleasure in unrighteousness, and that rather than they will lose that pleasure, will commit it presumptuously.

I might have loved madly and presumptuously; as boys will do; but I had loved worthily, the love left no blush on my manhood; and Fanny's very happiness was my perfect and total cure of every wound in my heart not quite scarred over before.
You may deem me intrusive, and perhaps presumptuously impertinent, but time proves all things, and, after a little while, you will cling to me as you so long clung to her. I shall wait patiently for your confidence; shall deserve, and then exact it.
They dissolved the sacred ties of custom and education, violated the religious institutions of their country, and presumptuously despised whatever their fathers had believed as true, or had reverenced as sacred. Every Christian rejected with contempt the superstitions of his family, his city, and his province.
