I dare say the fender has a meaning, as well as a use, and is as the rail round an altar. In 'The New Utopia' these hearths will all have been rased, of course, as demoralising relics of an age when people went in for privacy and were not always thinking exclusively about the State. Or has Mr. Wells arranged that the sun shall always be shining on us? I have mislaid my copy of the book.
Item, the said abbot having the contrepaynes of leases in his keeping, hath, for money, rased out the number of years mentioned in the said leases, and writ a fresh number in the former taker's lease, and in the contrepayne thereof, to the intent to defraud the taker or buyer of the residue of such leases, of whom he hath received the money.
When finished, the Bishop went to consecrate it; but two hours after sunset, an immense mob of Moslems, armed with pickaxes and shovels, rased it to the ground, having first taken the Cross and Gospels and thrown them into a latrina.
Agilulf at once moved against Padua and took it and rased it to the ground.
It was only George himself who had made the sham endure. The Victorian era came soon, and the angels rushed in and drove the nymphs away and hung the land with reps. I have often wondered whether it was with a feeling that his influence would be no more than life-long, that George allowed Carlton House, that dear structure, the very work of his life and symbol of his being, to be rased.
"The horrid plough has rased the green Where yet a child I strayed; The axe has fell'd the hawthorn screen, The schoolboy's summer shade." I hope, however, the threatened devastation will not be consummated in my day.
Marco Polo's best wonders made but a dingy show beside the "Field of the Cloth of Gold," where in this June the two defeated candidates for imperial honours had kissed each other midway between the ruined moat of Guisnes and the rased battlements of Arde. Then, on top of this, came the rumours of the English King's undertaking to answer Luther's most formidable attack on Rome.
As an unprotected village must Liege stand henceforth, walls and fortifications rased to the ground. "The perron on the market-place of the said town shall be taken down, and then Monseigneur the duke shall treat it according to his pleasure. The city may not remake the said perron, nor replace another like it in the market-place or elsewhere in the city.
Remember Milton's pathetic picture of himself, suffering from only one of poor little Helen's deprivations: "Not to me returns Day, or the sweet approach of even or morn, Or sight of vernal bloom, or summer's rose, Or flocks, or herds, or human face divine; But cloud instead, and ever-during dark Surrounds me, from the cheerful ways of men Cut off, and for the book of knowledge fair Presented with a universal blank Of Nature's works, to me expunged and rased, And wisdom at one entrance quite shut out."
Then we rased off the flesh from the necke, and cast dust thereon, and set it in the sun to dry. How Thrasileon was disguised in a Beares skin, and how he was handled. Many were desirous to play the Beare, but especially one Thrasileon of a couragious minde would take this enterprise in hand.
