He had scant notion of accuracy, he made no independent research into past events, and he was unconscionable in chronology. In his larger works he is for the most part a translator and compiler of the work of others, but he has some claim to originality of design and independence of mind in the books against Apion. The times were out of joint for a writer of his caliber.
The whole movement was made in silence, without a cheer or yell, for, like the porter and the Scythians, the most unconscionable villains in our ergastulum quailed before the truculence of the frontier sergeants.
All your other kind reproaches, your news, etc., are out of my head when I read and think of Mrs. Henri's situation. I wish the farmer great joy of his new acquisition to his family.... I cannot say that I give Him joy of his life as a farmer. 'Tis, as a farmer paying a dear, unconscionable rent, a cursed life!
Peter very likely slept but little, that first night at the villa; and more than once, I fancy, he repeated to his pillow his pious ejaculation of the afternoon: "What luck! What supernatural luck!" He was up, in any case, at an unconscionable hour next morning, up, and down in his garden. "It really is a surprisingly jolly garden," he confessed.
It seemed to me that even with the aid of this fine, bright fire, the dinner took an unconscionable time to cook; but cooked it was, at last, and truly might the good woman stare at the travellers' appetites we had brought with us. She did not know what short commons we had been on for the last two days.
I give you fair warning, you must choose this day, like any nun, between the ties of family and those of duty. Bran seized him by the skirt, and pulled him down towards the puppies; took up one of the puppies and lifted it towards him; and then repeated the action with another. 'You unconscionable old brute!
Kukushkin lied about himself in an unconscionable way, and they did not exactly disbelieve him, but paid little heed to his incredible stories. The third guest was Gruzin, the son of a worthy and learned general; a man of Orlov's age, with long hair, short-sighted eyes, and gold spectacles.
The Salvage Men of my time were brave enough, but they were likewise unconscionable rogues. The wind proved false to us at Deal, and we had to wait a weary ten days there. Captain Handsell was our commander. He was a man who knew but one course of proceeding. 'Twas always a word and a blow with him.
He was eagerly trying to make himself out an ordinary visitor. He explained that he did not know but that she might be going to the theatre during the day. He was in London for a short time on business. It was an unconscionable hour. "But I am so glad to see you!" she said, with a perfect sweetness, and her eyes said more than her words.
"He's taking an unconscionable time over it." She coloured a little under the suspicion she read in his eyes. "I I think he'll finish it to-morrow," she stammered. "It's nearly done, you know." "So I should think. I'll see him about it. I'm going to buy the thing." "To to buy it?" nervously. "Yes." His keen eyes flashed over her.
