He had no longer any thought of a conscientious avoidance of her, and resolved to call upon her that very evening. And when he reached his lodging he found a note from her a first note one of those documents which, simple and commonplace in themselves, are seen retrospectively to have been pregnant with impassioned consequences.
As to the farmers' reduction I will say nothing; if they wished it, they could go into the Land Court, and if rented too high could get a reduction, retrospectively from the day their application was lodged. The reduction, however, that the shopkeepers were advised nay, ordered to ask for must have surprised them more than their landlord.
The power of legislating retrospectively has far too wide a scope; the constitutional inhibition of ex post facto laws having been construed to apply to criminal or penal cases merely, restraining the legislature from making that an offence which was not so at the time of its commission, or increasing the punishment annexed to it.

In fact, all that has become may be explained retrospectively, but the beginning of anything whatever did not become.
But it was a nightmare fight; our endeavors seem retrospectively those of the paralyzed....
It is somebody's experience, we say, that is to be reported, the general effect that many things have left upon a certain mind; it is a fusion of innumerable elements, the deposit of a lapse of time. The straightforward way to render it would be for the narrator the author or his selected creature to view the past retrospectively and discourse upon it, to recall and meditate and summarize.
