There were people who, willfully blind to the facts, held me responsible, in the face of all reason, for the Grass itself. Although it is difficult to believe, there have been many occasions when I have been denounced by demagogues and my blood called for by vicious mobs. But enough of morbid retrospection.
"You bet there are! I'm one of 'em, too! What that song's done to me and to other innocent bystanders in the last couple weeks " She sighed hugely, drank more of the fortified brew nicely from the cup this time and fashioned a cigarette from materials at her hand. In the flame of a lighted match Mrs. Pettengill's eyes sparkled with a kind of savage retrospection. She shrugged it off impatiently.
Sally's strident tones broke in upon her retrospection: "There's one thing, Miss Jewett, I guess you needn't be afeard they'll meddle with, and that's your cookin'. Mr.
But judicial is much worse than legislative retrospection in another aspect. The act of Assembly, if carefully worded, is at least a certain rule.

It was not sufficient however to warm the whole party, much less to thaw our shoes, and the weather not permitting the gathering of tripe de roche we had nothing to cook. The painful retrospection of the melancholy events of the day banished sleep, and we shuddered as we contemplated the dreadful effects of this bitterly cold night on our two companions, if still living.
I have a great curiosity the blood of three kings, you know; surely that would overcome the blood of the good God knows how many peasant swine. She is not red, and hairless, and dirty now, in faith! She is clean-limbed, and straight, and white. A thousand louis to a sou, that she is!" ... His brow was creased in the travail or retrospection. "I gave her a name, did I not?" he asked.
"There will be no retrospection this evening, if you please," her voice rather metallic. The mystery lifted its head again. One does not hate a country without a strong and vital reason.
