I saw what it was to others to be subject to day-long visits from him, when he would ask for wine, and talk from morning to night, and a woman, solitary and busy, could not undertake that sort of hospitality; but I saw how forbearing his friends were, and why, and I could sympathize in their regrets when he died.
Is it as convenient and pleasant for you to live on this side of the bay, and go back and forth?" "Oh yes! I don't mind that part of it." "Oh dear!" thought Mrs. Oliver, "he does n't want to come; and I don't want him to come, and I must urge him to come against his will. How very disagreeable missionary work is, to be sure! I sympathize with him, too.
"I sympathize most sincerely," says the anonymous author of a pamphlet of the period, "with the very respectable and pious clergyman whose heart must still bleed at the recollection that his confidential class-leader, but a week or two before his just conviction, had received the communion of the Lord's Supper from his hand.

I own there are very able Englishmen left, but they happen to be on t'other side of the Atlantic."
If a gentle little Alderney calf should marry a sleek young zebra and afterward get kicked to death for her pains, we should all sympathize with her. But we should expect other mild-eyed Alderneys after that to beware of zebras. As a matter of fact, this present divorce talk, which sets the good to fluttering, really interests a very unimportant class.

And the greater part of the six thousand pounds lent by Spens has one way or another pretty nearly shared the same fate.
