So the Tory policy was to watch, not indeed permitting their opponents to gather strength, and muster in armed force or with order, but being well apprised of all their schemes and intended movements, to wait for some bold overt act, and then to strike severely. And as a Tory watchman or spy, as the Whigs would call him Jeremy Stickles was now among us; and his duty was threefold.
Shakespeare wished to exhibit a more sublime picture an ambitious but noble hero yielding to a deep-laid hellish temptation, and in whom all the crimes to which, in order to secure the fruits of his first crime, he is impelled by necessity, can not altogether eradicate the stamp of native heroism. He has, therefore, given a threefold division to the guilt of that crime.
The foundation is the body, the wall man, the roof the spirit, the division of the Church threefold. The body possesses the earth, man the clouds, the spirit the stars.

By the effigy of marble, smooth, shining, dark, the bride is figured, guileless, well conducted, working.

Now, I look back on that as a time of liberty. I am in bondage, now threefold bondage. 'How threefold? 'To you, because I love you, and couldn't cease loving you, however I tried.
His education in the mental and physical achievements imperative on Eastern royalty, when the sword-pierced heart of the mother who typified the Virgin Queen of Saints was translated to Nirvana's rest, is contrasted with the sudden realisation of life's vanity when brought face to face with the world's threefold burden of sorrow, sickness and death.
Were it not for the confinement of his fiction its lack of range and sweep, both in subject-matter and in attitude of mind his work on this account might be regarded as an illustration of all that may be great in the threefold process of creation. =The Art of Fiction and the Craft of Chemistry.= Fiction, to borrow a figure from chemical science, is life distilled.
"My good old friend! all now is right again," said Herr Sohnstein; who then affected to put his arms around the three, but really embraced only Aunt Hedwig. However, there was quite enough of Aunt Hedwig to fill even Herr Sohnstein's long arms; and he made the average of his one-third of an embrace all right by bestowing it with a threefold energy.
