But there, notwithstanding all that we and others of like mind could do, blood was shed which covered liberty with shame, and in the confusion that followed Mary was shot as a pétroleuse while she was succouring the wounded. We buried her tenderly, and I laid part of my life in her grave.
But the girl, remembering the violent attempt of the previous night, and not quite free from distrust, withdrew her hand quickly. Quasimodo fixed upon her a look of reproach and unspeakable sorrow. The sight of this beautiful girl succouring a man in the pillory so deformed and wretched seemed sublime, and the people were immediately affected by it. They clapped their hands, and shouted, "Noël!
Only, when they are perishing in their helplessness and wretchedness, it asserts the Christian duty of succouring them, instead of saying, like The Times: "Now their brief spring is over; there is nobody to blame for this; it is the result of Nature's simplest laws!" But, like The Times, Hebraism despairs of any help from knowledge and says that "what is wanted is not the light of speculation."
For to the perpetual renown of many honourable West Country families be it spoken, both master and men were daily in the moors at that time succouring the persecuted, like the ravens that fed Elijah in the wilderness.

It is mainly in the succouring of those who thus suffer that the vitality of the old creed is manifested in the person of its professors.
"Now be a succouring angel, and make a clean breast of it. Who is my landlady?" Marietta drew back a little. Her brown old visage wrinkled up, perplexed. "Who is the Signorino's landlady?" she repeated. "Ang," said he, imitating the characteristic nasalised eh of Italian affirmation, and accompanying it by the characteristic Italian jerk of the head.
The close of the battle was on the visage of Rufus Abrane fifteen minutes before that Elgin marble under red paint in the ring sat on the knee of a succouring seconder, mopped, rubbed, dram-primed, puppy-peeping, inconsolably comforted, preparatory to the resumption of the great-coat he had so hopefully cast from his shoulders. Not downcast by any means.

Edmund and Stephen were raising up the unlucky Giles, who lay quite insensible, with blood pouring from his eye.
