The enraged lion lashes his sides with his tail, knits his brows, protrudes his claws. The cat sets up her back; the dog retracts his upper lip; the horse throws back his ears.

She has not given it or sent it to me. It is not therefore her answer. It is not written for me, though to me. Nay, she has not intended to send it to me: she has even torn it, perhaps with indignation, as thinking it too good for me. By this action she absolutely retracts it. Why then does my foolish fondness seek to establish for her the same merit in my heart, as if she avowed it?
And therefore it is that feelings demonstrate themselves in sounds as well as in movements. Therefore it is that Carlo barks as well as leaps when he is let out that puss purrs as well as erects her tail that the canary chirps as well as flutters.

He acknowledges that God can put properties into matter which cause it to operate from a distance.
"Well, I confess I don't see that it retracts anything." "Nor do I," said Winters; "in fact, I regard it as adding insult to injury. Mr. Wiegand you've got to do better than that. You are not the man who can pull wool over my eyes." "That, sir, is the only retraction I can write."
I will throw myself at the feet of the empress, and never rise until she has released you, dear sister." "Have you yet to learn that the empress never retracts her words? It is useless. I trust go, and my death-warrant is signed." "It shall not be!" cried Antoinette, beside herself with grief. "Wait dear, Josepha, until I return. I go to obtain your release."
