The king has suffered; it rankles in his mind; and he will avenge himself. He will be a bad king. I say not that he will pour out his people's blood, like Louis XI., or Charles IX.; for he has no mortal injuries to avenge; but he will devour the means and substance of his people; for he has himself undergone wrongs in his own interest and money.
Besides, he couldn't have women interfering with him every moment. How inconsiderate men are! They drop a word or a phrase they do not know how cruel it is or give a look they do not know how cold it is and are gone without a second thought about it; but it sinks into the woman's heart and rankles there.
The old town, quite an inconsiderable place, on the site of which the present city has risen, phoenix-like, was burnt to the ground during the late war, by some British officers, who made a sortie from the Canada shores; which circumstance, having been handed down from father to son, still rankles in the bosoms of many of the older inhabitants, who do not fail to state their belief that retributive justice will eventually be administered by the entire subjugation of Canada.
I have lost the ways of Providence, and am dark! She awaits me; but I broke the chain that galled us: yet it still rankles still rankles!" The unhappy man threw himself into a chair in a paroxysm of frenzied agony.
He will not consider for a moment that he isn't going to be able to keep his position on the paper; they're filling it for him among themselves still. If he wasn't so so fiercely proud! It's Austen that rankles, you see." There was a movement on the couch. Harriet went swiftly over to the waker.

Through the whole of the few remarks I made in answer, I avoided, studiously and carefully, every thing which I thought possible to be construed into disrespect. And, Sir, while there is thus nothing originating here which I have wished at any time, or now wish, to discharge, I must repeat, also, that nothing has been received here which rankles, or in any way gives me annoyance.
"But it will be a lie. I have not forgiven her. I loved my mother and esteemed her as a pure and excellent woman. I was proud of my mother. How can I forgive her for having destroyed such feelings as those?" "There should be nothing that a son would not forgive his mother." "Ah! that is so easily spoken. Men talk of forgiveness when their anger rankles deepest in their hearts.

The whole thing has gone out o' folks' minds by this time, I reckon; but Carrie never laid it aside. It rankled and still rankles.
Carry this poisoned shaft, which rankles in your bosom, about with you wherever you may go, in the turmoil of life; cherish its companionship at our fetes and banquets; imitate the wounded deer, which flees through the thickets and brakes and forests, in its efforts to draw out from its body the arrow which is rankling in the wound; sometimes the arrow falls."
