"Stay! stay, Monseigneur," continued Jocelyne, as La Mole again pressed her hand and turned to depart. "She relents she has a kind heart; and she would not, surely, deliver up the guest who begs shelter at her threshold, into the hands of those who seek to capture and to kill him." "Let me go forth, Jocelyne! farewell!" repeated La Mole.
"I don't think much of it myself," says Rylton, with increasing gloom. At this abject surrender Margaret's tender heart relents. "I believe all you have told me," says she; "and I suppose I'm glad of it, although Well, never mind that. Marian deserves no pity, but still " "Pshaw!" says he. "What has Marian got to do with it?

Still, I am willing to keep them open, and give the kiss of peace whenever he relents to please you." "Ah, no, monsieur! To please him. To please him." "Indeed, no! To please you and no one else. If I followed my own devices, I'd wait till he comes back, and box his ears. He'd very well deserve it." Maxine laughed; then, swift as a breeze or a racing cloud, her mood changed.
Adriano begs for his father's life, and Rienzi weakly relents, and grants his prayer on condition of the nobles taking an oath of submission. In the third act the struggle between the nobles and the people advances another stage. The nobles have once more broken their oath, and are drawn up in battle array at the gates of Rome. Rienzi marshals his forces and prepares to march forth against them.
I shall disclose some of his opinions of you, privately expressed to me, unless he relents a little. 'At all events, Mr. Harthouse, said Tom, softening in his admiration of his patron, but shaking his head sullenly too, 'you can't tell her that I ever praised her for being mercenary. I may have praised her for being the contrary, and I should do it again, if I had as good reason.
"If he relents," she said, amazed, "there is! Nothing is past hope, if such a miracle has happened." "He is past relenting," said her husband. "He is dead." She was a mild and patient creature, if her face spoke truth; but she was thankful in her soul to hear it, and she said so with clasped hands. She prayed forgiveness the next moment, and was sorry; but the first was the emotion of her heart.
