I touch distinctly upon these external blemishes and this nudity of adornment, not that they would be worth mentioning in a sketch of other remarkable persons, but because Leigh Hunt was born with such a faculty of enjoying all beautiful things that it seemed as if Fortune did him as much wrong in not supplying them as in withholding a sufficiency of vital breath from ordinary men.
Pour a little water into the bottom, and put under and round the trivet a sufficiency of pared potatoes, either white or sweet ones. Put it into a hot oven, and let it bake till thoroughly done, basting it frequently with its own gravy. Then transfer it to a hot dish, and serve up the potatoes in another. Skim the gravy, and send it to table in a boat.
When he left the miller, he came to me to borrow money to live on, and told me they did not pay him. I gave him some copper-money that I had in my pocket, on which he subsisted for some days. It is true, indeed, he lived upon nothing but broth; nor had he a sufficiency of that.
In default, however, of any grave objection to the presentee, he was next summoned by the presbytery to what really was a probationary act at their bar; viz. an examination of his theological sufficiency. But in this it could not be expected that he should fail, because he must previously have satisfied the requisitions of the church in his original examination for a license to preach.
As it turned out they had an ample sufficiency; in fact, more than they needed. With the coming of daylight, Frank, who had resumed his place at the helm a short time before, uttered an exclamation. "Ship!" he cried. He pointed off to port. The others glanced in the direction indicated and then raised a cheer.
But the Landholder wishes it to be supposed, that though my veracity should not be doubted, yet my evidence ought to be rejected, and observes, that to comprehend what credit ought to be given to it, by which I suppose he means its sufficiency if credited, it ought to be known how long I was absent from Convention, as well as the time I attended.
Of food and water he had a sufficiency, the filterer and a bread-bag being quite near him, and he helped himself often from the first, in particular; a single mouthful of the ship's biscuit commonly proving more than he could swallow, even after it was softened in the water.
The general-in-chief also descended in this manner an almost perpendicular glacier. His guide was a young countryman, active and courageous, to whom the First Consul promised a sufficiency for the rest of his days.
A Burman's wants are very few, such wants as money can supply a little house, a sufficiency of plain food, a cotton dress for weekdays and a silk one for holidays, and that is nearly all. They are still a very young people. Many wants will come, perhaps, later on, but just now their desires are easily satisfied.
There are three parts in the story the conduct of the rich man, his fate, and the sufficiency of existing warnings to keep us from his sin and his end. I. Properly speaking, we have here, not a parable that is, a representation of physical facts which have to be translated into moral or religious truths but an imaginary narrative, embodying a normal fact in a single case.
