"With me you need have no fear! Come." And I led her on, too powerless to resist my force, too startled to speak on, on, on, over the rank dewy grass and unmarked ancient graves on, till the low frowning gate of the house of my dead ancestors faced me on, on, on, with the strength of ten devils in my arm as I held her on, on, on, to her just doom!
But while thus unmarked on the biographical side, historically these years were pregnant with momentous events, which not only affected the future of great nations then existing, but were to determine for all time the extension or restriction of their social systems and political tendencies in vast distant regions yet unoccupied by civilized man, or still in unstable political tenure.
"Use!-really, Ma'am, as to that,-I don't make any particular use of them; but one must have them, to tell one the day of the month:-I'm sure, else I should never keep it in my head." "And does your time pass so smoothly unmarked, that, without an almanack, you could not distinguish one day from another?"
No spot can harbor here unmarked by me no thought can cloud your brow that does not reach your lover's heart. Whence comes this grief? Tell me, I beseech you!

The home life of the missionary doubtless often presented a picture of domestic happiness. But there were no luxuries.
On the 22nd and 23rd the villages of Dag and Tangi were respectively captured and destroyed, but as the resistance was slight and the operations were unmarked by any new features, I shall not weary the reader by further description. The casualties were: BRITISH OFFICER. Wounded Major S. Moody, the Buffs. NATIVE RANKS. Killed. Wounded. Guides Infantry. . . 1 2 38th Dogras. . . . 0 2
And yet hitherto Richard's life, though not unmarked by violence, had been free from violence to his own flesh and blood.
"My story is soon told," replied I; "for, as you remarked before, time has been flowing on, for me, quiet and undisturbed. I have no adventures to relate no stirring accidents by field or flood; mine has been a humdrum, peaceful life, unmarked by variety, except those common ones which would be uninteresting to a man of travel and adventure like yourself."
She had only to say in reply, that they had wandered about, till she was beyond her own knowledge. She coloured as she spoke; but neither that, nor anything else, awakened a suspicion of the truth. The evening passed quietly, unmarked by anything extraordinary. The acknowledged lovers talked and laughed, the unacknowledged were silent.
