She who had been so firm, she who had held so tenaciously to her principles, she who had posed before them as an example of devotion and courage she could not bring herself to that. "No, no," she exclaimed as this alternative presented itself to her mind. "No, I cannot. It is beyond me. I simply cannot do it." But she could. Yes, she could do it if she would.
And, doing so, it happened that there came into the disc of her vision a man whom she knew she had never seen before. For a few minutes she watched him riding up the valley, idly amused at the awkward manner of his progress. When his horse walked he clung tenaciously to the saddle horn; when the animal trotted he gave her the impression that at any step he was going to fall off.
These two lads, who now advanced directly toward the foe, were lieutenants in the first American expeditionary force to reach France to lend a hand in driving back the legions of the German Emperor, who still clung tenaciously to territory he had conquered in the early stages of the great war.
No trout can be caught if he sees the shadow of the sportsman on the brook. These people whom everybody expects to die, live on most tenaciously. I know of a young lady who evidently married a very wealthy man of eighty-five years on the ground he was very delicate, and with reference to her one-third.

Be ye guided by wisdom in all your doings, and cleave ye tenaciously unto it.
That this view of life must have persisted very tenaciously even down to a time when a strong reaction in the direction of positive religious feeling had set in, is proved by the romances of the time. The novels of the ancients were in general poor productions. Most of them are made after the recipe of a little misfortune in each chapter and great happiness in the last.

"Yes, he looks as though he would hold on to his opinions pretty tenaciously." "Not so tenaciously as he would grasp any money coming within his reach!" At a little distance, Mr. Whitney was engaged in conversation with the Englishmen.
