But he had to deal with a tough and daring opponent. Throughout the winter Lannes had been a prey to ill-health and resentment at his chief's real or fancied injustice: but the heats of summer re-awakened his thirst for glory and restored him to his wonted vigour. Calling up the Saxon horse, Grouchy's dragoons, and Oudinot's grenadiers, he held his ground through the brief hours of darkness.
Marry the Duchess, if you like, but don't worry me with your re-awakened conscience. I'm going my own way for the rest of my few years, and the less I see of you the better I shall be pleased. You will forgive me but I have an engagement down the river! I really must hurry you off." Her teeth were set close together, the sobs seemed tangled in her throat.
While she clung to him, and he held her in all the fervour of his re-awakened love, she must have believed the message he had read was still in her keeping. The sordid duplicity, the rank treachery of it seared and scorched. Forgetful of the sleeping man whom he was there to watch, forgetful of everything save the bitterness of his betrayal, he paced the floor with rapid, raging steps.
I watched the re-awakened devotion of my sister; Clara's timid, but concentrated admiration of her father, and Raymond's appetite for renown, and sensitiveness to the demonstrations of affection of the Athenians. Attentively perusing this animated volume, I was the less surprised at the tale I read on the new-turned page.
He was a forcible, hard, and tactless man, and only I had been able to control and soften him.

This signal of a dissension was heard along the main street of Epsom, and re-awakened the flagging hilarity of the road. Algernon shrieked his commands; Sedgett thundered his. They tussled, and each having inflicted an unpleasant squeeze on the other, they came apart by mutual consent, and exchanged half-length blows.
She tried to draw his attention to herself; not from any sentiment of egotism, but to break, if she could, the strain of these insupportable horrors where so short a time before Hope sang and Life revelled in re-awakened joys.
They whizzed round the corner from the station yard, and observing that her mouth was just a little open as though this had disconcerted her, he said: "He pulls a bit." "Yes but isn't he perfectly sweet?" "He IS rather decent." Ah! when SHE came, he would drive her; they would go off alone in the T-cart, and he would show her all the country round. He was re-awakened by the words: "Oh!
And then she told him all about Daniel’s visit at Erfft, and did it with a smile in which there were both indulgence and re-awakened astonishment. Her smile made the same appeal to Eberhard that Eleanore’s had.
Fleur-de-Lys loved him, he was her betrothed; she was alone with him; his former taste for her had re-awakened, not with all its fresh-ness but with all its ardor; after all, there is no great harm in tasting one's wheat while it is still in the blade; I do not know whether these ideas passed through his mind, but one thing is certain, that Fleur-de-Lys was suddenly alarmed by the expression of his glance.
