It was translated into French by a philosopher who had a great admiration for the famous shoemaker." "Oh! he was a shoemaker, was he?" said the head clerk. "In Prussia," said the German. "Did he work for the King of Prussia?" inquired a Boeotian of a second clerk. "He must have vamped up his prose," said a third. "That man is colossal!" cried the fourth, pointing to the Teuton.
As time will not permit me to adduce all that might be said upon this subject, I shall here only take upon me to assert, that they were most credulous, superstitious, and weak men, and, what is worse, made no scruple of falsifying, to support and favour what they called the cause of truth; for they were writers of apocryphal books, attributing them to the apostles, and, moreover, great miracle-mongers, who vamped up stories of prodigies to delude their followers, and which they themselves knew to be false.
This simply reduced me to asking myself if the girl had on the spot improvised an engagement vamped up an old one or dashed off a new in order to arrive at the satisfaction she desired.
To be sure, if the country were in danger, and the Queen personally appealed to one, and the conservative party were really a conservative party, and not an old crazy faction vamped up and whitewashed into decency one might pause and consider.

At our morning service Cherry-Garrard, good fellow, vamped the accompaniment of two hymns; he received encouraging thanks and will cope with all three hymns next Sunday.

He would supply me here I capered among the dumb gods of Egypt and laughed in their battered faces with material to make my tale sure so sure that the world would hail it as an impudent and vamped fiction. And I I alone would know that it was absolutely and literally true. I I alone held this jewel to my hand for the cutting and polishing.
"Spanish blood," rejected by the plebeian! I have known better men than you, Eusebius excuse the comparison vamped up and engraved upon the spur of the moment, for celebrated highwaymen or bloody murderers. But this digression won't help you out in your sitting. Let me see what the learned say upon the subject what advice shall we get from the man of academies.
Specially when I remember these females would grin jest the same if them club swingers had spattered our brains all over the front yard awhile back. But I wisht sombody'd give the girls a nightie or somethin' to wear. I been around some and I seen quite a lot, but I ain't used to bein' vamped by a bunch of undressed kids with goo-goo eyes the size of a plate o' fish balls.
