To read all and vote in every case, would be "a physical impossibility." Finally, as things are, "is not the general will, at least the apparent general will, that alone on which the government can decide, itself ultra-revolutionary?" In other words, should not the five or six rascals in a State who vociferate, be listened to, rather than a hundred honest folks who keep their mouths shut?
They were sitting round a table, almost enveloped in smoke; and were hymning praises to their loved companion beer. As being in harmony with the moustaches, beard, and bandit propensities which true buerschen delight to cultivate they received the strangers with an unfriendly stare, and continued to vociferate their chorus.
Jennka, who had at first been looking on with her customary malicious, disdainful air, suddenly could not stand it; she began to squeal savagely, threw herself upon the housekeeper, clutched her by the hair, tore off her chignon and began to vociferate in a real hysterical fit: "Fool! ... Murderer! ... Low-down go-between! ... Thief! ..."
"Where are you hurt, my dear?" repeated Madame de Fleury in a soothing voice. "Only tell me where you feel pain?" The boy, showing his sister's arm, said, in a surly tone "It is this that is hurt but it was not I did it."

I should like to avenge myself now for the honours I rendered him at that time." The crowd augmented, and continued to vociferate with a degree of fury which may be imagined by those who have heard the inhabitants of the south manifest, by cries, their joy or their hatred. Some more violent than the rest wished to force Napoleon's coachman to cry "Vive le Roi!"
The wind blew so violently, that I had but to spread my cloak like a main-sail, and scud along the street at the rate of ten knots, greatly envied by other navigators, who were beating slowly up, with the gale right in their teeth. One of these I capsized, but was gone on the wings of the wind before he could even vociferate an oath.
But in attempting to study a man of this nature, for our own learning, we should rather observe how notable a victory he achieved in making so much of so little than vociferate that he was not this thing or that.
He may then vociferate something about Johnson having touched: the writer cares not whether Johnson, who, by the bye, during the last twenty or thirty years, owing to people having become ultra Tory mad from reading Scott's novels and the "Quarterly Review," has been a mighty favourite, especially with some who were in the habit of calling him a half crazy old fool touched, or whether he did or not; but he asks where did Johnson ever describe the feelings which induced him to perform the magic touch, even supposing that he did perform it?
The smaller birds, the birds that build their nests in our trees, and sing for us at morning-red, I will not describe. . . . But I must mention the great companies of blackbirds more than the famous "four-and-twenty" who were baked in a pie that congregate on the tops of contiguous trees, and vociferate with all the clamor of a turbulent political meeting.
The earl may recover himself yet," he added to himself; and therewith he began once more to vociferate his incantations.
