One writer, for instance a lady had vilified Mormonism because "some rude men in Salt Lake City had walked over a bridge before her." It was scarcely the most propitious moment to start on such a journey. The country was torn with intestine contentions. The United States Government were fighting the Indians, and the Mormons were busy stalking one another with revolvers.
And next to hearing Fra Girolamo himself, the most exciting Lenten occupation was to hear him argued against and vilified. This excitement was to be had in Santa Croce, where the Franciscan appointed to preach the Quaresimal sermons had offered to clench his arguments by walking through the fire with Fra Girolamo.
Presidents and senators may come and go, be praised and vilified, and then in turn forgotten; but the birds are subject to no such mutations. It is a foolish thought, but sometimes their happy carelessness seems the better part. The lesser lights, the dearer still That they elude a vulgar eye. Listen too, How every pause is filled with under-notes.
They vilified and abused Blueskin, as much as they had before abused our hero, and now repeated the same toast, only changing the name of Wild into that of Blueskin; all agreeing with Wild that the watch found in his pocket, and which must be a fatal evidence against him, was a just judgment on his disobedience and revolt.
She was not his not his in the world of realities, at any rate. Her heart belonged to the friend of her childhood, the only man whom she would ever love the man by whom he poor Bobby! had been content to be defamed and vilified in order that she should remain happy in her ideals and in her choice.
He had even felt himself in sympathy with the atheists, when he had seen them vilified and persecuted. Maximilien had opened his mind and unsealed his eyes.
She would take no advice. She was like a hungry warrior in an enemy's country asked to surrender arms in exchange for gold. Once the necessity was satisfied, he would become a prisoner, would be vilified and on a par with the miserable creatures who a few hours before were receiving his blows.
"He has killed the king's men; and if the baron should aid and abet, he will lose his castle and land." "Will I?" said the baron; "not while I have a drop of blood in my veins. He that comes to take them shall first serve me as the friar serves my flasks of canary: he shall drain me dry as hay. Am I not disparaged? Am I not outraged? Is not my daughter vilified, and made a mockery?
Riots took place in Boston, Newport, and New York, and assemblies of citizens in various parts expressed an indignant and revolutionary spirit. The residence of the military at Boston was, moreover, the occasion of perpetual tumult. The people abused the soldiers, vilified them in newspapers, and insulted them in the street. Mutual animosity was the result.
"Every thing that I say and do," interrupted the sobbing Grace, "is vilified and misinterpreted by those who wish me ill. "You have desired to leave me, Grace; and my desire is that you should leave me," said Mrs. Harcourt, with firmness.
