I hope I may, on this new occasion, speak without offence, notwithstanding your former injunctions You see that there can be no hope of reconciliation with your relations. Can you, Madam, consent to honour with your hand a wretch whom you have never yet obliged with one voluntary favour! What a recriminating, what a reproachful way, my dear, was this, of putting a question of this nature!
Above all Greek, above all Roman fame? But if you discerned the bitter personality, the incurable prejudice, the cutting retort, the suspicious implication, the recriminating sneer, the cherished animosity; if you beheld the interests of an empire standing still, the business of the civilized globe suspended, while two intellectual gladiators are thrusting each to give the other a fall, and to show his own strength; would you not lament the littleness of the great, the infirmities of the good, and the weaknesses of the wise?
The incidental reference to that one grief of his brother's life was of a kind which could never fail to arouse generous sympathy in his heart. But Mr. Landale had not come to the critical point of his say, and he did not choose to allow the chapter of emotion to begin just yet.

The cruelty of these barbarians not being sufficiently gratified by dispatching the patriots the shortest way, they hung up many of them by their chins on hooks at the shambles, and left them to die at their leisure. See "Mitraillades, Fusillades," a recriminating pamphlet, addressed by Tallien to Collot d'Herbois. The title alludes to Collot's exploits at Lyons.
Certain recent events implied that he and you must have parted, and I therefore deemed it time to inquire what he had done with you." "Since last July," she interrupted. Lifting up her wan face, now colorless again. "Do not think worse of me than I am. He was here in December for an hour's recriminating interview, and we parted for life." "What have you heard of him lately?" "Not anything.

He said in a bitter, recriminating tone, "You don't know what you are talking about," and left her standing there, the tears frozen in her eyes.
Byron, be it said to his credit, brought no recriminating charges against his wife. He only said their differences were inexplicable and unexplainable. The simple facts were that they breathed a different atmosphere their heads were in a different stratum. His normal pulse was eighty; hers, sixty-five.
Two hours passed in wrangling and talking and recriminating, when, at last, one of them, striking the table, exclaimed with an oath: "All Europe won't save the villain. Didn't he seduce my sister's daughter, and then throw her and her child back, with shame and disgrace, on the family, without support?"
And now so great was his fear of having done him bodily injury, that he seized him in his arms, and, thus embraced, they had slept until I disturbed them. Each now commenced giving a confused version of the affair, criminating and recriminating in a manner that only served to increase the disgrace to which it attached.
Far from obeying her injunction, or humbling himself by a submissive answer to her reprehension, his resentment buoyed him up above every selfish consideration: he resolved to attach himself to Emilia, if possible, more than ever; and although he was tempted to punish the officiousness of Jolter, by recriminating upon his life and conversation, he generously withstood the impulse of his passion, because he knew that his governor had no other dependence than the good opinion of the commodore.
