It is the want of nerves of understanding for such a task, it is the degenerate fondness for tricking short-cuts, and little fallacious facilities, that has in so many parts of the world created governments with arbitrary powers. They have created the late arbitrary monarchy of France; they have created the arbitrary republic of Paris.

"You've been richt good to me, but I canna thole the thocht o' that place. And, oh, doctor, you winna tell naebody that I was so near taen to it?" In the garden McQueen said to Gavin: "You may be right, Mr. Dishart, in this matter, for there is this in our favour, that the woman can gain nothing by tricking us. She did seem to feel for Nanny. But who can she be?

What you have to do is to ennoble and purify the WOMANHOOD of these poor women; to make them better daughters, sisters, wives, mothers: and all the clubs in the world will not do that; they are but palliatives of a great evil, which they do not touch; cloaks for almsgiving, clumsy means of eking out insufficient wages; at best, kindly contrivances for tricking into temporary thriftiness a degraded and reckless peasantry.

His conscience might be tricking him. He hoped that it was tricking him. "We'd better look among the trees," he said. "And then we'll go to the terrace below." "It's no use looking among the trees," Jimmy returned. "If she was up here she must have heard us talking all this time." Abruptly he led the way to the steps near the plane tree. Dion followed him slowly.

He had his ideas of the Spirit of Woman stating her case to the One Judge, for lack of an earthly just one: a story different from that which is proclaimed pestilential by the body of censors under conservatory glass; where flesh is delicately nurtured, highly prized; spirit not so much so; and where the pretty tricking of the flesh is taken for a spiritual ascendancy.

They had stooped to the methods of the lowest kind of thieves, yet they had failed. They had not found my letters. My joy was not very real; I was too wretched for that. Looking back at it all long after, I think that the hardest thing to bear was Aurelia's share in the work. I had not thought that Aurelia would join in tricking me in that way.

No; that I should not, I am very, very sure I never should. 'Well, but Tom, interrupted the gentleman, 'if in a million of years you should not forget us, I dare say, in less than two months you will forget our advice, and before you have been at school half that time, you will get to squabbling with and tricking the other boys, just as they do with one another; and instead of playing at all times with the strictest openness and honour, you will, I sadly fear, learn to cheat, and deceive, and pay no attention to what your mother and I have been telling you. 'No', that I am sure I sha'n't! replied the boy.

"No, don't laugh," she said quickly, almost as if something in his careless speech had pained her. "We must look at the matter from every stand-point before before we take any action. Suppose you really did want to marry some one? Suppose you fell in love again? What then?" "What then?" said Cheveril. And, though he was obligingly serious, she felt that somehow, somewhere, he was tricking her.

She was looking at him without words. A coldness dropped into his heart. There had been three of them before he, Mathilde, and a phantom. Now there were only Mathilde and himself. "She was not tricking," he thought, and felt pleased. "At least not consciously." Her arms fell from him and she stared frightenedly. "Forgive me, Erik. I thought you loved me.

'They speak of commanding the winds and tides, he cut her short, with no clear analogy; 'wait till we have a storm. It's a delusion amounting to dementedness to suppose, that with the people inside our defences, we can be taming them and tricking them.
