He threatened it in order to make it desirous of buying him; he only opened his mouth in order to have it stuffed with gold. His most revolutionary movements were but the marked prices at which he was purchaseable. His hand was in every intrigue, and his honesty was not checked by any offer of corruption. He was bought daily, and next morning was again for sale.
All notes of invitation are now issued in the name of the mistress of the house only, as follows: "Mrs. Norman requests the honour of Sir George and Lady Thurlow's company at an evening party, on Monday, 14th of June." Others prefer the subjoined form, which is purchaseable ready printed upon either cards or note paper, with blanks for names or dates: "Mrs.
The mind wearies of books, yet cannot forget that once when they were first opened in youth they gave it hope of knowledge. Those first books exhausted, there is nothing left but words and covers. It seems as if all the books in the world really books can be bought for L10. Man's whole thought is purchaseable at that small price, for the value of a watch, of a good dog.
One remains in camp to attend to the duties of the regiment; a second attends to the mess: he goes to the regimental butcher, and bespeaks a portion of the only purchaseable commodities, hearts, livers, and kidneys; and also to see whether he cannot do the commissary out of a few extra biscuit, or a canteen of brandy; and the remainder are gentlemen at large for the day.

He would have bought off Neefit at a considerable price, had Neefit been purchaseable. But Neefit was not in this matter greedy for himself. He wanted to make his daughter a lady, and he thought that this was the readiest way to accomplish that object.
Others prefer the subjoined form, which is purchaseable ready printed upon either cards or note-paper, with blanks for names or dates: "Mrs. Norman, "At home, "Monday evening, June 14th inst." An "At home" is, however, considered somewhat less stately than an evening party, and partakes more of the character of a conversazione. The reply to a note of invitation should be couched as follows: "Mr.
It was the perfect stroke of Catherine's policy, the secret of her predominance over her sons, thus, with a flight of purchaseable fair women ever at command, to maintain perpetual holiday, perpetual idleness, with consequent perpetual, most often idle, thoughts about marriage, amid which the actual conduct of affairs would be left to herself.
Great complaints are made about the high price and the inferiority of the horses purchaseable in Bombay, a place in which the Arab is not so much esteemed as I had expected.
