I wanted Voltaire to give you up the key, the cross, and the volume of poems I had intrusted to him; as soon as all that was given up to you I can't see what earthly reason could have induced you to make this uproar." It is very probable, however, that Frederick wished to humiliate Voltaire, and the latter did not fail to revenge himself with that weapon which he knew so well how to wield.
They made great rejoicings all the night, on account of having it in their power to revenge their relation; and the unhappy criminals had the mortification of standing by to behold this jollity, and the preparations made for their execution.
Bruce did not oppose this counsel; and as the fumes of passion passed away, leaving a manly sorrow to steady his determination of revenge, he listened with approbation, and finally resolved, whatever violence he might do his nature, not to allow Edward the last triumph of finding him in his power. The earl's next essay was with Helen.
It was incredible, she told herself, that this ravening monster, dripping blood from claws and teeth, that had arisen roaring in the night, could be the Humanity that had become her God. She had thought revenge and cruelty and slaughter to be the brood of Christian superstition, dead and buried under the new-born angel of light, and now it seemed that the monsters yet stirred and lived.
If you do not do all this, Julio, I will have you killed; so fail not as you value your life. "P.S. The Señor Don Carlos is here with me, and echoes what I say. We are with the brave General Sevillo, and if you dare to disobey, terrible revenge will be taken."

But awaiting the instant between one beat of the heart and another, he seized the shred of shrapnel lodged there, and closed up the throbbing breast. The boy would live.
As regards the first, they who threaten injuries to life incur more danger than they who actually inflict them; or rather, while great danger is incurred in threatening, none at all is incurred from inflicting such injuries. For the dead are past thinking of revenge; and those who survive, for the most part leave such thoughts to the dead.
If you are not, I shall tell your husband that you spent last night in the apartments of my friend Tom, your old lover. "And did you ever see a woman blush, my boy? not the blush she puts on at will, but a blush that is genuinely in earnest a blush she cannot help. I had my revenge as I watched her blush. She blushed in seven colors every color in the spectrum.
They forgot how grieved the wives and sisters of the dead would be at being deprived of the solace of burying the remains of their friends they only thought of revenge for the insult they had received. When they arrived at their village, they called together their chiefs and braves, and related to them what they had seen.
"If I cannot take part in the sports in person, at least I would like to have some finger in the pie." That was all that passed. "I like Railsford," said Smedley; "he's genuinely cut up." "It's awfully rough on him," replied Ainger. The two friends said good-bye. "By the way, Smedley," said Ainger, calling the captain back, "I may as well tell you, we are going to have our revenge for all this."
