"If you are really willing to take the risk we shall be glad to see you this afternoon." James observed that Alice Frome did not second her cousin's invitation. He temporized. "Oh, this afternoon! I have an engagement, but I am tempted to forget it in remembering a subsequent one." His smiling gaze passed to Alice and gave her another chance. Still she did not speak.
"My wife always and always and at the last there in my arms." Stolphe temporized. "I never knew you. She did not leave you because of me. She came to me because because I was there for her to come to, and you weren't there. Why do you want to do me any harm?" He still must be careful, for undoubtedly the man was mad his eyes were too bright.
She temporized, therefore, professing herself unable to decide, and dismissed them for three years with a promise to marry the one who in that time should prove himself the noblest knight. "Thereupon Prince Melchior and Prince Otto rode away in anger, for they coveted the golden road as well as the lady.
They trusted in God with absolute faith; would not resort to expediency for any purpose; temporized with no principle, no, not for greatest advantages. They knew that God could send peace, victory, and prosperity to their country through the Covenant; and that He would send defeat, distress, and desolation through the breach of it. The Resolutioners grew more and more lax.
But in the matter of open alliance with the rebels against the British Government France temporized, nor could the utmost efforts of Franklin and his colleagues extort a decision. Saratoga extorted it. On the one hand it removed a principal cause of hesitation. After such a success it was unlikely that the colonists would tamely surrender.
He temporized before he really told her of what worried him. "Well," said he, "there'll be old Neb " "Who's he?" "A servant who has been in our family for years. He is a fine old darkey and we love him everyone of us." "And will he be all?" "No; I understand that Mr. Horace Holton, also, will come with the party. Mr. Holton and his daughter."
The mine-owners' conference, from which he had just returned, had been called to protest against the poor service given by the railroad, and knowing his present inability to give better service, he had temporized until it needed but this one more touch of the lash to make him lose his temper hopelessly. "It's the Gloria bridge," said Benson.
But it was an unconventional thing to request of a young lady; a week slipped past before the colonel realized it while he temporized in his mind. At last he approached it circuitously and with a great deal of diplomatic concealment of his purpose, leaving ample room for retreat without unmasking his intention, in case he should discern indications of unwillingness.
The village was quiet, as you came through?" "Quiet as my poor husband in his grave. Tell me? Abbe, now, honestly, am I thinner? I have deprived myself of coffee these two days." The Abbe walked gravely round her. It was quite an excursion. "Who would have you different, Madame, to what you are?" he temporized. "To be thin is so ungenerous. And Albert where is he? You have not surely come alone?"
The Senate, he told them, had not behaved disgracefully, but had temporized. The war, unfortunately, must be delayed for those twenty days necessary for the going and coming of the ambassadors. The ambassadors could do nothing. But still they must wait. In the mean time he will not be idle.
