"But, daddy dear, I promise you we'll never let you be lonely. Why, I couldn't stand leaving you any more than you could " "Not those reasons alone, Ann." "Then what?" "You're so young," he tried to procrastinate. "I'll be eighteen. A woman." All his faculties were cornered. "You're so Oh, I don't know I " "You haven't any reasons, dad, except dear silly ones.
No, I would procrastinate; I would keep my eye on the two desperadoes and dog them at every turn. Anything was better than the possibility of being wrong. Then it struck me that even at that moment some new phase of the conspiracy might be developing itself.
"In Heaven's name, do that to-night, Solomon!" implored the judge. "Why procrastinate?" "Price, there's a pack of dogs in this neighborhood, and we must have a full night to move in, or they'll pull us down before we've gone ten miles!" The judge groaned.

If he declared for Charles, England would fall from it; if for Henry, Germany and Flanders were lost irrecoverably, and Spain itself might follow. His one hope was to procrastinate; and in this policy of hesitation for two more years he succeeded, till at length the patience of Henry and of England was worn out, and all was ended.
I remembered that this evil was still preventable; that this fatal journey it was still in my power to procrastinate, or, perhaps, to occasion it to be laid aside. There were no impediments to a visit: I only dreaded lest the interview should be too long delayed. My brother befriended my impatience, and readily consented to furnish me with a chaise and servant to attend me.
By the injured and neglected creditor such an arrangement might justly be considered as a disreputable artifice. Instead of delaying, it was believed to be a measure which would facilitate the settlement of accounts between the States. Its advocates declared that they did not entertain and never had entertained any wish to procrastinate a settlement. On the contrary it was greatly desired by them.
