They were not sitting in a waiting half circle they were scattered, unwatchful. Two of them in the immediate foreground were wrangling over a half-gnawed bone. The rest of the pack were nosing a heap pitifully eloquent. As before, so now they tricked the eye into a fancy that they lived.
He crossed the hall and took the corridor to the left which led to the physics theatre. The corridor was dark and silent but not unwatchful. Why did he feel that it was not unwatchful? Was it because he had heard that in Buck Whaley's time there was a secret staircase there? Or was the jesuit house extra-territorial and was he walking among aliens?
The Rangers count three of their number killed and about twice as many wounded enough, considering the advantage they had in their unwarned attack upon enemies who for once proved unwatchful. When the conflict has finally come to a close, and daylight makes manifest the result, the victors take possession of the spoil most of it their own property.
Now notice the form of this sleek strategist's first remark flung out in an easy, offhand way that would have thrown any unwatchful person off his guard: "Now, Joan, the matter is very simple; just speak up and frankly and truly answer the questions which I am going to ask you, as you have sworn to do." It was a failure. Joan was not asleep. She saw the artifice. She said: "No.
He adds, "They bring before the mind's eye and ear the face and voice of a dear departed friend, and, I believe, a true and enlightened servant of the Lord." Keep thy heart, with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life. We often are made to feel the force of this truth, when we have been unwatchful, and some cross occurrence has tried our tempers.
The corruptions of the Church, especially of its official members, are traced with sad and prescient hand in these foreboding words, which are none the less a prophecy because cast by His forbearing gentleness into the milder form of a supposition. The dreadful doom of the unwatchful servant is couched in terms of awful severity.
She was glad that Radcliffe bounded in just then, throwing himself upon her in his eagerness to tell her all that had befallen him during their long separation of two hours, when he had been playing on the Mall under Beetrice's unwatchful eye. In spite of Martha, Claire had just been on the point of confessing to Mr. Ronald.
III. The picture and doom of the unwatchful servant. This portrait presupposes that a long period will elapse before Christ comes. The secret thought of the evil servant is the thought of a time far down the ages from the moment of our Lord's speaking. It would take centuries for such a temper to be developed in the Church. What is the temper?
Aasa's beauty, however, was also of a very unusual kind; not the tame sweetness so common in her sex, but something of the beauty of the falcon, when it swoops down upon the unwatchful sparrow or soars round the lonely crags; something of the mystic depth of the dark tarn, when with bodeful trembling you gaze down into it, and see its weird traditions rise from its depth and hover over the pine-tops in the morning fog.
The crash in the confined hole was tremendous so awful that the professor thought the weapon must have burst. The struggles of the, tiger became more violent than ever, and its weight more oppressive as the earth crumbled away. Again the cold perspiration broke out all over the man, and he became unconscious. It must not be supposed that the professor's friends were unwatchful.
