So much extent and no more had that religious, conviction by which he had for years had the effrontery to excuse the enormities practised in the Netherlands. God would never forgive him so long as one heretic remained unburned in the provinces; yet give him the Imperial sceptre, and every heretic, without forswearing his heresy, should be purged with hyssop and become whiter than snow.
From the elevation of the low hills that rose above its banks, Hearne was able to look upon the foaming waters of the Coppermine, as it plunged over the broken stones of its bed in a series of cascades. A few trees, or rather a few burnt stumps, fringed the banks, but the trees which here and there remained unburned were so crooked and dwarfish as merely to heighten the desolation of the scene.
The one much accusing the other, insomuch that the Friar could not reconcile nor take up the controversy between them, at last, and after long debate, the Friar said, "I know a way soon to discover the truth of this cause," and commanded that two barrels of gunpowder should be set in the midst of the market-place at Buda, and said unto the parties, "He that will maintain his Doctrine to be right, and the true Word of God, let him sit upon one of these barrels, and I will give fire unto it, and he that remaineth living and unburned, his Doctrine is right."
But the Nigger shook his head, and Perdosa went into an ecstasy of rage. He kicked the fire to pieces; he scattered the unburned wood up and down the beach; he even threw some of it into the sea. "Eef you no cook heem de grub, you no hab my wood!" he shrieked, with enough oaths to sink his soul. Finally Pulz interfered. "Here you damn foreigners," said he, "quit it! Let up, I say!

At first he, too, seemed puzzled. Then his face grew black as a thundercloud. "Are you certain that you know how to scale a log right, Charley?" he asked. "Absolutely, Mr. Marlin." "How do you estimate a log?" Charley got his rule and laid it across the end of an unburned log in his fireplace. It was ten inches in diameter.
Helbig appears to think that to clothe the dead in garments was an Ionian, not an ancient epic custom. In Iliad, XXIII. 69 ff., the shadow of the dead unburned Patroclus appears to Achilles in his sleep asking for "his dues of fire." Aus den Sitzungsberichten der philos. philol. und histor. Classe der Kgl. bayer. Academie der Wissenschaften. 1900.
Great heaps and piles of ashes, and half-consumed beams and crushed and broken brick, lying in smoldering humility, punctuated by stray relics and remnants of an unburned world pieces of furniture, by some miracle left unharmed, or bric-a-brac of some more than usual inanity.
"Of course," she said. "As I can't read or write I'm driven back on the early English tally for my accounts. Give me one and I'll tell you what it meant." I passed her an unburned hazel-tally, about a foot long, and she ran her thumb down the nicks. "This is the milk-record for the home farm for the month of April last year, in gallons," said she.
